About Us
From tradition and experience to authentic Thai dining in Columbia, MO.
Our Beginning in Columbia, MO
Ocha Thai Restaurant was built in Columbia, Missouri at 510 Green Meadows Road, #101. The idea started with a goal to bring real Thai cuisine to the local community. The restaurant was shaped through years of experience in Asian kitchens and a strong focus on quality food and service. Thai cuisine was chosen because it is known and loved worldwide, and it fits well with guests looking for fresh and balanced meals in a clean, modern setting.
Chef Kit and the Culinary Journey
The kitchen is led by Chef Kit, who has over 25 years of experience in Thai cooking and restaurant operations. As a Vietnamese immigrant, his background includes deep knowledge of Asian food culture and long-term work in developing successful restaurants. Over the years, his work has been featured in trade publications and recognized for consistency and skill. The focus remains on authentic Thai recipes made with fresh ingredients and careful preparation.
