Kouun Asian Eatery: Sushi Meets Thai on Belvedere Road

On Belvedere Road in West Palm Beach, Kouun Asian Eatery runs two kitchens' worth of cooking under one roof — a full Japanese sushi bar on one side and a Thai kitchen turning out curries and noodle soups on the other.

Two Cuisines, One Menu

The sushi side covers the essentials and then some: traditional and signature rolls, sashimi and nigiri by the piece, and hand rolls built around ingredients like Scottish salmon and blue fin tuna. Cross over to the Thai side of the menu and the offerings shift to red and massaman curries, kao soi, pad thai, and stir-fried noodle dishes, plus Japanese ramen and udon for anyone splitting the difference. Regulars single out the octopus salad and the restaurant's spicy octopus preparations as menu highlights worth seeking out.

Built for Reservations and Dinner Service

Kouun keeps a dinner-forward schedule, closed Mondays and opening for dinner-only service on Tuesdays before adding lunch hours midweek. The kitchen leans into scheduled ordering for pickup, which keeps the sushi and hot dishes moving out fresh rather than sitting. Desserts like mango sticky rice and Thai iced tea round out a menu built for lingering over more than one course.
