Food is actually really tasty but the portion sizes are more like half sizes so when you get a two for one deal you actually are not getting a deal at all. $26 is the regular place for a tiny bowl of green curry with only vegetables? Even the mango salad was a small portion. No leftovers tonight! Too bad it was pretty tasty.
If you want real/good Thai food___do not go here!
They tricked people by the name of the restaurant.
We got chicken skewers that comes with weird tasteless sauce ( peanut and bean, looks gross)
Fried noodle with shrimp and vegetables was ok…
Customer service was good!

Service was quick and the 2 ladies who were serving us were really nice
Easy to find a parking spot.
We ordered 8-9 meals and only spent around $100 altogether.
The ambience was nice for a family, and the place was cleanly maintained

Being new to Toronto, we are trying various restaurants. We walked by Thai Room recently, as it's close to where we live.
I have to say that it's one of my most enjoyable experiences I've had since arriving in Toronto. The food was amazing, so very tasty, with flavors bubbling over with every bite. Seriously, the food is delicious! And their menu is large!
Another unexpected and enjoyable experience for me (as an American) was their musical playlist playing the whole time. It was a wonderful mix of the very best of R & B and Soul music that I'm accustomed to hearing in the States but that here in Toronto has been, so far, conspicuously absent.
I asked the very sweet lady who was serving us about the playlist. She simply said that one of their staff picked it out to which I replied, "Well done and thank you! :)!
Don't pass by this small-ish restaurant on the Danforth. You won't be disappointed! We are definitely going back.

The basil fried rice and Khao soi are both wonderful, flavourful dishes. The portions are great for the price. I'd say an order of rice is good for 2-3 people. The Khao soi is so good, 1 person can probably eat the whole thing, but it could pass as a shared dish as well.
If you are looking for delivery, they offer their own delivery which is free after a certain amount spent. Ordering from the restaurant directly will definitely save you some third party fees.

Extremely expensive for a takeout place. Was about to purchase yesterday but something felt off and then I asked for the price and it was $22 something for just a green curry with chicken. Please ask for the price before you buy here.
I recently had the chance to visit White Elephant Thai Cuisine, and while the food portions were impressively large, my experience was a bit of a mixed bag. I ordered a dish with Thai spice, hoping for the bold, flavorful heat the cuisine is known for, but unfortunately, the flavor was quite bland. Even though I asked for a higher spice level, it just didn’t deliver; to my surprise, I did get some raw red chilies halfway through my meal, which added some heat, but honestly, they would’ve been better if they were cooked into the dish. As for the meat I selected, it wasn't to my liking — it felt a bit off in terms of quality, which was disappointing.
That said, I’m not ready to give up on this place just yet. I think I’ll have to go back and try something else on the menu to see if a different dish might hit the mark.
A couple of notes for management: The ambience where I was seated wasn’t ideal. I felt like I was tucked away in a corner by myself, and the music was way too loud, which made it hard to fully enjoy my meal. A little tweak in the atmosphere could make a big difference.
Looking forward to another visit — I’m hopeful for a better experience next time! (Will edit this post on my next visit)

First time , small place . Very friendly and helpful staff. Tried the Thai Room special chicken and shrimp pad see ew . It was fast and very well cooked. Nice taste not too spicy . The vegetables were cooked well, the shrimp was the star of the dish . Also had the vegetable spring roll , it was fried perfectly and cooked evenly . No oily or cold spots in roll, their dipping sauce was perfect . Definitely recommend this place , portions are a good size . I will definitely go back .
Ordered through uber eats as we read they have pad Thai. Ordered some mushroom lemongrass soup as well. It was so bad that I had to reorder food from somewhere else. Spring roll was good . I am so unhappy with the taste.
I have ordered spicy chicken pad Thai. Chef Mani had done a great job with the delicious pad thai with broccoli, bell peppers and delicious flavours. It was worth the hunger!
We came here for dinner a while ago based on several recommendations from others on a group. Boy were we disappointed.
The biggest first red flag was the empty parking lot at 6:30pm. When we walked in, the atmosphere was absolutely not one of a restaurant: the entrance area was very cluttered with random supplies and furniture, and you had to flag someone down from the kitchen to seat you. The dining area was in the back whereas everything else was at the front, which was a little strange.
Despite only four other people dining in there, service was non-existant. Once they give you everything you ordered, they will never come back again to check on you. Be prepared to get water refills and take out containers yourself.
The only decent dishes we got were the papaya salad and coconut rice. He found that both the chicken curry and sweet and sour stir-fry with shrimps were on the sweet side; they also came with too much peppers and tofu.
We had to go out to the front and flag someone down from the kitchen to pay our bill. The restaurant seemed like it was run by a family who is new to the industry, given it was one of the worst dining experiences we've ever had.

Fantastic food and really good service. Huge portions at a reasonable price. Everything was delicious. Parking lot has seen better days.
I have been to some of the top Thai restaurants in the city and enjoyed some great tasting food, including dishes prepared by an Iron Chef. This meal, from Thai One on in Pickering, can't compare to those flavours but it actually wasn't bad.
We had a variety of dishes, including Pad Thai noodles, Red Curry Chicken, Garlic Shrimp, Mango Salad, and more. This meal was better than I had anticipated. Maybe I'll drop by for one of their lunch specials...

This place was absolutely amazing and stunning! Service was really great and the food was even better. Definitely worth every penny spent.
I ordered thai spicy noodles. Uber wasn’t showing veg option to select so called in. Sonia helped me and understood what I wanted. I truly appreciate her. Loved loved the delivery. It was super yummy. The lemon grass soup was soo good too. A must must try😇😋😍
Ordered the vegan pad thai and vegan fried rice. Huge portions. Lots of veggies and the Tamarind sauce was amazing. Everything was absolutely delicious! The staff was very nice. The restaurant is perfect. Nice decor and very clean. I would highly recommend Thai Room on the Danforth.
Unique atmosphere that sells below average Thai food. I was excited to go because of high ratings, but failed to reach expectations. Though service is good.
Food we got was not cooked in balance. it was too sweet to eat and too bland for some dishes. Whats more infuriating was SHRIMP AND BEEF they add is just MERE GARNISH compared to cheap vegetables that they give you for the main dish. Nothing special. I wouldn’t pay $120 for 3 people for dishes that are small portions. Too expensive and wouldn’t recommend.

I have to say this is the best Thai restaurant in Calgary. So authentic I felt like I stepped off a plane in Thailand. The food and presentation blew me away, so beautifully plated. The flavour was incredible!! They can make lots of dishes vegan. Cannot wait to go back. Thank you !
Food was fantastic!!! Was a large group of us, and he was a little flustered bringing our bills, but understandable.
100% will be back here. Been craving the spicy noodle ever since

We happened to be in the neighbourhood and visited Thai One On for Lunch and very impressed with the great portions. We ordered Chicken satay (pic posted), Coconut Mango Chicken and Khao Soi ( Khao Soi is not mentioned in their menu but is there) . We felt the food was very tasty and great portions. Service was also quick. It was a table for 2 with a toddler. Overall great experience
I’ve been going here for at least 8 years! Food was amazing. But It definitely fell off after the restaurant was sold/changed management in 2023 and I stopped going after the food didn’t taste the same. I wanted to give it another try after almost 2 years, and I was pleasantly surprised how good it tasted again. I spoke with the cashier there, he told me it’s now under a new management and I could tell the difference. Give it a try, Thai Spicy Noodles are 10/10
We were here for a birthday lunch. Someone in our party is sensitive to gluten. This place offers gluten free options!
Food was great. The Penang curry was amazing. Stuffed chicken wing was a highlight!
They sang birthday song and all that… if you do not want to be embarrassed, do not tell them what you’re celebrating for!
Interestingly, they have drive thru as well. I am going to try that next time.

I've been coming to this restaurant 2011. It's my favourite Thai place in Durham.
I dined alone tonight and had the pleasure of meeting a family that was experiencing the restaurant for their first time. I truly enjoyed my dinner, and I suspect that family will also be back again.
Love the food here. It never disappoints.

The best Asian restaurant in Joliette, and probably all of Quebec and Ontario.
I went with my friends for lunch and we entered the food court, we saw thai one eats and
😅 we ordered some food and It was so tasty we had fried rice and oodles of noodles which one was buy one get one
The food flavor was so good
I'm going next time there for sure, and I will highly recommend this place for every thai food lovers and for those who haven't tried thai Foods yet

We've had their chicken pad Thai and loved it, but the last 2 times we've wanted to go there (at a reasonable supper hour and when Google says they're open ) they're closed. If you can manage to catch them open, enjoy the good food.
Best restaurant in Joliette and the Lanaudière region! Family run - with attention to service and quality. You’ll love it!
Service was quick and the 2 ladies who were serving us were really nice. One of them even gave us a complimentary mango salad
Easy to find a parking spot
Foods were reasonably priced. We ordered 8-9 meals and only spent around $120 altogether.
Tom Yum soup was delicious and their Malay Curry was outstanding too.
Seafood salads were Yummy and refreshing.
The ambience was nice for a family, and the place was cleanly maintained

This place is the absolute best. Nestled away in the back of a Motel is the best Thai spot in the city. Portions are large, and all dishes are balanced and flavourful. Have liked everything so far, especially the Ginger Stir fry - great ginger flavour with a balance of Thai spices. Mango salad is refreshing and perfect to balance out the spice. All the curries are excellent! Cannot go wrong with this place! Service is quick and efficient!
I went for dinner at this place, and honestly, it was the worst experience of my life. If there was an option to give negative stars, I'd have given them a -100 without hesitation.
First off, the hygiene was beyond disgusting. Every single dish looked like it hadn’t seen soap or water in years. I mean, who even does that? Then there's the food—don't even get me started. No flavor at all, just a strong vinegar taste in one dish, and the other was sweet (dominanting the coconut taste). Nothing tasted like actual Thai food. It's just an absolute mess and disgrace. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. Save your time, money, and taste buds, and do yourself a favor and avoid it at all costs.

Pretty much impossible to order take out here. They simply don't answer the phone nearly 100% of the time. Food is good, but that doesn't mean anything when you can't get it. This has been the case over a period of at least three years now - if you want to order, you should prepare yourself ahead of time for frustration. I've finally just given up on them, not worth the constant disappointment.
Generous portions, consistently beautiful presentation ,tasty food, lovely service juries checks all the boxes
Over the years we have eaten here often and are amazed at the consistent top notch experience
we are vegan and so appreciate when the server can modify dishes to meet our dietary needs
our recent visit was with non vegan friends who also have eaten here before
All of us were delighted with our experience .

Came on a busy Friday evening but service was still great. Very attentive service. All of the food came out quickly and tasted delicious. Highly recommend the prawn coconut milk soup and tamarind special fish!
Amazing people! The food is DELICIOUS and you get ALOT of food! The boba is very tasty! The flavor of the boba is strong but not too strong. Great food, Nice people, OK Atmosphere.
No amount of spices could hide the taste of rotten chicken in this food, the inside of this place should have been my first warning it's absolutely filthy. You definitely want to avoid this place, it's rating does not accurately reflect its food.
Delicious Thai food! Ordered take-out for the first time and especially enjoyed the Pad Thai Chicken noodles. Pineapple fried rice and Samosa were also good. Didn't really like the texture of Satay Chicken even though the sauce was very good! Service was very friendly and there's a small sitting space to dine-in. Would definitely visit again.
Absolutely disgusting worst thai cuisine ever literally drained money through sewer ordered spicy they literally dont know what thai food is waste of money
Location is convenient for us Walking distance from Main and Danforth. We had the Mango Chicken and the Signature Pad Thai with chicken and shrimp. There was a good number of shrimp in our order. Food was hot and freshly cooked. We ate at the restaurant, service was good and friendly.
generous portion sizes give a good bang for your buck, tasty food overall but especially recommend the pineapple fried rice!
The outside is just a plain steel door. The inside is very well decorated. Do not expect a red carpet outside of the door. You have to open your eyes to find it. Nice environment making sure it brings you back to Thailand. The food was really good and of big quantity for 1 person. It would have been great to more fragrance in the curry. My order has lots of potatoes.
We didn't realize it was a rice day when we went there to eat. We ordered the coconut rice and the beef fried rice. We also ordered the cashew sweet and sour with shrimp. Shrimps were actually prawns. You can taste the savoury coconut milk on the rice. It feels like they used glutinous rice but I think they only used a regular jasmine, which is good. The fried rice is heavy in itself. The restaurant deco is reminiscent of Bangkok vibes. Service is a bit slow, as we were the only ones inside at 1:30pm on a Sunday. Food is a bit expensive, but maybe comparable to other Thai restos? They don't have the mango sticky rice for dessert, so that is a bit sad.
First time in Calgary, after a long drive we chosed this place for dinner and everything was really impressive. The food wes very delicious with authentic Thai taste. The service was beyond expectation, all staffs were incredibly nice. If we have chance to come back to Calgary, we will definitely visit Jurees's place again. For those who live in Calgary, this is a must thai restaurant that you should go and I mean it!
Recently discovered this place. A new favorite of my gf. Have tried a few of the noodle dishes, pho, and the spring and pork and shrimp rolls. Haven't had a bad dish here yet, everything has been great. The ladies that work here are very friendly and the service is quick!
It's been a long time since I had Thai this good. I often order Pad Thai and Mango salad, as my fav. Just ordered Mango this time and was very impressed.
Sometimes my memory exaggerates and tells me that the past experience was much better. However this Mango salad was about as good as the best I recall. Tiny criticism, it seemed a bit too sweet as I got towards the end.
Friend ordered Green Curry and Coconut Mango rice. Never had that rice before. Wow, have I been missing out! Five out five stars. I will adding this to my fav list.
Didn't try my friends Green Curry, however she said very good.

The food was soooo good!!! packed with so many layers of flavour and they come together so well😩🫶 the portion is very decent too one plate is almost enough to feed two! We ordered stir fried glass noodles, chicken and shrimp fried rice and malay chicken curry and they are all cooked to perfection:) quoting from my friend "i usually hate broccolis but they even made the broccolis taste good." will be coming back for the rest of the menu🫶
Good tasting food and plentiful however the shrimp pad sew only has a few shrimps (4 to 5) and adding extra is not worth the price they charge. The beef was overdone and chewy for the beef pad sew. Other than that the service is good but the price is a bit much considering you don’t get much protein.
Amazing experience. Delicious food. Delicious dessert. Friendly service and very good price.
Food, atmosphere, and service is spectacular here. The curries are awesome (partial to the panang or massaman), papaya salad (thai hot of course), spring rolls were filled with delicious mint, and basil chicken is fantastic. Highly recommend!
We love Spicy Hut, we heard that the owners are retiring, we visited again for one more time before they close.
Food was great, potion was large as always. Their menu is huge, there are so many items to choose from, I cannot believe they cook everything in the kitchen!
I want to say thank you to the owners and wish you the best for your retirement!

I don’t know why it’s taken me two decades to write a review for this place! This is bar none the best Chinese food you can find in Calgary. Simply cannot be beat in terms of flavours and quality. Definitely is a hole in the wall, so don’t expect anything fancy when you get in. The service is friendly and fast, but the real highlight is the food. My wife and I have been dining here At least once every couple months for the past 18 years. Not once have we been anything but extremely satisfied. The food comes out ridiculously quickly (honestly sometimes within 5 to 10 minutes) and is always fresh (No heat lamp buffet in this place). Our favourite dishes are a crispy chow mein hot plate, and crispy chicken.
This is absolutely our favourite restaurant and I can’t recommend it enough. Give it a try and you won’t be disappointed!

One of those cozy family-run establishments that are hard to come by these days, Spicy Hut doesn't look like it has much to offer upon first glance but that's how you know the food's going to be good.
The reviews weren't kidding when they said this place makes the best dumplings ever because I seriously could not get enough of them, especially with that chilli oil on the side. Also enjoyed their pad thai, veg fried rice and beef mussuman curry although it's definitely not spicy the way they advertised it.
To top it off, I was surprised to see the OG fortune cookies they gave us which tasted just as good as I remember from my childhood (petition to have all restaurants start selling them again pls thank you).
Overall, the bill came to $70 which felt expensive at first but after seeing the amount of quantity we received, I realized one dish is made to share between at least two people so it was worth it considering the amount of leftovers. Will definitely be back for more dumplings!

What happened?? I've been going to this place for over 20 years and it's always been amazing with great value. I was super disappointed that my favorite dish masamun beef was awful in my order. The beef used to be velveted and incredibly tender. My order had beef so tough that you could barely put your fork in it. The potatoes in the dish were also quite large and tough but not as tough as the beef.
However, the crispy chicken was still quite good but default spice level that we got would probably overwhelm someone who doesn't deal with heat well.
Since I've been going back to this restaurant for so long, I'd probably give it another shot but I'm so disappointed my favorite dish is a fraction of the quality it used to be.

Their flavours are unique and positively addictive! If you like Chinese or Thai food, you owe it to yourself to eat here. Generous portions, always fresh and top quality ingredients -- you won't believe the size or number of the prawns in your meal :). Oh, and I almost forgot to mention the hands-down best Hot and Sour Soup in Calgary -- probably anywhere.
Friendly folks, family-run hidden gem. Once you eat here, you'll find it hard to go anywhere else. We've been driving across town, as often as possible, for many years now -- absolutely nothing compares to the food and service at Spicy Hut.

Although the food here was phenomenal, I cannot say the same about the service. I expected better. Dine-in was so painfully slow that I witnessed the other three in our party (Mom, Aunt, and her friend) be served their meal 20 minutes before mine even arrived at the table. The flavor profile of the Pad Thai was spot on with subtle undertones of tamarind. I realize the establishment has limited seating, and they are doing their best, but the ambiance is rather cold, stuffy, and I felt rushed. Maybe take-out next time.
Tried their pho, lychee bubble tea, Vietnamese coffee, vermicelli noodles with grilled meats, and Vietnamese crepe.
All were below average. The bubble tea was made way too sweet, we couldn't finish it. The Vietnamese coffee was incredibly bitter and just tasted like sweetened stale coffee.
Pho broth lacked depth.
Vermicelli noodles with grilled meats was okay. The meats and sausages gave the dish some flavour.
The Vietnamese crepe was okay, too. It wasn't crispy around the edges and the crepe was thick and doughy. The dish came with a fish sauce dip. The sauce barely tasted like fish sauce or anything like it. It was so diluted.
Overall, a very uninspiring restaurant lacking flavour.

I stayed in a hotel downtown and was looking for a highly-rated Thai and found PAI.
We went on a Tuesday evening and arrived around 8:30 pm, and there was still a 25-minute. Then you knew there would be good food!
We ordered something I don't usually see on the menu of other Thai restaurants: Squash fritter, Beef noodle soup, and Curry pork belly.
Squash fritter was like spaghetti squash in fries. I hesitated to order this appetizer because I was not hungry and worried I could not handle fried food. I am glad that I tried that. The tamarind sauce is light and refreshing.
Another concern was if the beef noodle soup would be too similar to the Vietnamese style. It had a unique flavor full of spice and tamarind but not too hot 🔥 We loved the broth so much we finished it. We loved spicy food, so we asked for extra chili. There were two options: chili oil and chili powder. We chose chili oil, it tasted so good. It added some heat without changing the taste of the food.
We wanted the curry ox tail but it was sold out so we had the pork belly instead. It tasted more like a Chinese-style braised pork belly or a Japanese-style curry. It was kind of sweet with a hint of sour, plus an additional layer of tamarind. It came with a rice that was lovely wrapped with a banana leaf, looking really cute. Again we put extra chili oil to kick in some heat.
The price is very fair and the service was good.
The only thing that was not optimal was seating us in a tiny corner with an even tinier table. The two gentlemen next table told us they were there before and it was too weird for them as they were not on a date and they asked to move. It was okay for us but it would be an issue if we ordered more food.

We went there on a Monday evening, and there was a long line out the door. The wait was fairly short though, only being around 30 minutes. Once we stepped into the restaurant, we were shocked by how large the interior was, sprawling far into the building. We heard rave reviews from others, so we had high expectations. Their service was impeccable, and the food was amazing. My favorite dish was the laab salad, the flavours being fresh and herbal, cutting through the fatty meat. The rest of the dishes were also great in both taste and technique. Overall, a great experience and we will definitely be back to try the beef noodles.

Wonderful, authentic Thai fine food - one of the best Thai restaurants in the Greater Toronto Area.
Kiin is housed in an artfully decorated, beautiful location. What stands out is the attention to detail - from the choice of furniture to the warm but white hues in the room and the tasteful light fixtures.
It is the food, however, that distinguishes Kiin from the hundreds of other Thai places across the GTA. The cuisine at Kiin is Royal-Thai inspired, meaning the ingredients, flavors, tastes, and spices are more refined than found elsewhere. The effort and focus pays off in the form of a delectable experience.
On our most recent visit, we joined them for brunch and tried and loved:
- Chor Muang (steamed Thai flower dumplings made with peanut, pickled radish, and coconut filling) - 8/10
- Som Tum Thai (green papaya, tomato, yard long beans, poached shrimp, dried shrimp, bird’s eye chilli, thai garlic, lime, fish sauce, roasted peanuts) - 9/10
- Jhok (Thai rice porridge, housemade chicken meatballs, sous vide egg, crispy vermicelli noodles, ginger, green onion, coriander) - 10/10
- Pad Thai (red-flame stir-fried rice noodles with tamarind-palm sugar sauce, chives, egg, and grilled chicken) - 7/10 (maybe because the chicken was cooked separately and hence not infused with flavor/taste as expected)
The only thing we tried and didn’t like much was the Patong Gho (Thai crullers served with sang kaya)
The one thing we had tried on a previous visit and didn’t get this time (not available during brunch) was the Miang Kung | Wild Betel Leaf Wrap containing shrimp, pomelo, shallots, ginger, roasted coconut, peanut, red chili, tamarind sauce, lime). It is truly divine - we will return for it.
Overall Verdict: Highly Recommended

PAI is definitely a very popular spot in Toronto and, for some people, it may even seem somewhat touristy, but the food there is actually delicious. It gets very busy but, we have been lucky enough to get seated almost right away. Overall, the service is good, a little slow at times but, so far it hasn't been a problem. The food is very tasty, fresh and crispy. Perhaps, a bit pricey but, the portions are satisfying. The ambiance is lively and the décor definitely takes you to another place.
I've been here three times, and while many love it, I find it overrated. The wait time is often lengthy, and quite a number of dishes aren't available until after 4pm. The food is okay, but after waiting for an hour, I expected more. The shrimp chip is my all time favorite though .
Just awesome! Great flavours in the dishes, that rich authentic taste (and heat). We did lunch which was great but it looks like a lot of the real house specials are only avail after 4pm. Will definitely go back and is a downtown gem.
A local gem in the West Rouge area! Thai Square has been my families go to for years. We would always do take out but this is the first where we dined in. They have amazing workers where they accommodated my family, especially having my dad in a wheel chair. The service was impeccable where they provided us with our orders with minimal wait time and always checked up on us! I truly recommend this restaurant and will continue to order from them!
Kiin offers a remarkable culinary journey with its 6-course tasting menu. The server's impressive memory stood out, as they cited each ingredient and story from memory, enhancing the overall experience. Each dish was beautifully presented, turning the dining experience into a tale.
The server's guidance on pairing and the order of eating added to the enjoyment. The khao soi surf and turf dish was a standout, with super melt-in-your-mouth beef and perfectly cooked lobster. The presentation and flavor were exceptional, earning Kiin a well-deserved 10 out of 10.

A nice place to hang out with friends! We had a birthday celebration brunch there’s staff was very nice and food was pretty good. Boat noodles came with rich soup and very tender beef brisket. Staff was very nice. Tried their dessert, patong Gho with their homemade sauce became our favorite. Definitely a good place to go!
I believe this is the first Pai location in Toronto. Came here around 2PM for a late lunch and it was surprisingly packed! Service was quick and you can tell the place needs a uplift. Aside from that the food was delicious but could definitely use more rice for their curry dishes.
Excellent food. Excellent service. Easy stop off the highway. Very clean restaurant and bathrooms. Food was hot, fast and delicious! Waitress was extremely nice! Would recommend! (:
We had to try Pai after seeing so many great reviews. We probably waited less than 20 minutes on a Sunday evening around 7. The service was friendly. The green curry was excellent and portion was split between a coconut and a bowl, which was much appreciated. The Tom yum soup was everywhere I was hoping for— sour, salty, sweet, savory, and spicy. It was well balanced. The shrimp chips were surprisingly good and better than ones I’ve had from other places. The mango in the coconut sorbet was heavenly, and the sorbet was light and creamy. The only food critique was I heard the pork belly was really tough and chewy, difficult to eat.
Family took me here for my birthday, 🎂 and it was a really quaint and rustic atmosphere. Give you quaint 60s 70s vibe. We went with the set menus and boy did it not disappoint. Some of the best Thai food we've ever had. Would definitely recommend and can't wait to make our next reservation. And to top it off they even took the time to write a personalized Thank you birthday card. Now that's how you earn a tip.
Came back after a while and food was still very nice. We came as a group of 6 and all of the food we order were great. I love Tom Yum so much. Green curry and chef’s choice are the must-try dishes.
It was a little bit packed when we arrived, there were enough room for us to sit comfortable.
Drinks were not really nice.

This is a great chinese thai food restaurant,
Thai stuffed wings was the best & recommended, sweet & sour pork bit sour but still ok, quick fried sliced duck with green onions very tasty with thin sliced with wok style, grilled pork dumpling the inside meat smell really good and delicious but the skin was too thick, maybe bit thinner will be perfect.
Service was fast and also they have parking at the side of the restaurant.
Pad thai also recommends.
Reasonable price recommend for family.

We celebrated our first wedding anniversary and enjoyed every minute of our time at Kiin. Sitting at the chef's table, we got to watch the magic in the kitchen and chat with the head chef Daniel who was so warm and welcoming and passionate about food. The owner Jeff was so hospitable, we felt like we were in his home. The executive chef Nuit was so humble and sweet you don't even realize she's as famous and accomplished as she is. The bartender Jeff made the most amazing drinks. Our server Wonita was so happy and attentive, we felt so important and taken care of. I haven't even started about the food. We had the vegan tasting menu and every dish was beautiful and tasty. And considering the level and quantity of food we got, the price was very reasonable. We couldn't have chosen a better place to celebrate our one year. We left with our bellies and hearts full. Thank you Kiin. We will be recommending you to everyone we know!
This is a great little (local!) spot! Food is delicious and staff is friendly. Try different things on the menu too, trust me, It’s all good!!
Hidden gem in Mount Brydges,we stopped on our way home from the lake and what a good stop it was!The food was delicious, they have a good variety of choices,including gluten free ones,the portions are generous and the ingredients all fresh.
The service was great and the atmosphere was calm and inviting. Really liked the decor as well. Worth a stop in if you're traveling in the area.

The food was delicious!!! Service was nice too. I got the chicken pad Thai and it was delicious. I also had some of my girlfriends red curry and it made me wish I bought both.
Our servers were absolute delights and atmosphere was bright and buzzing on a Saturday afternoon. The dishes were fairly unique, the curry was very sweet. Would recommend the dough fritters and iced coffee.
Best Pad Thai! We were impressed with the ease of ordering, friendly and fast service and great tasting lunch!
Overall good experience of Thai food.
The menu is confusing with too many set menus leaving the guests confused. The set menu is lovely option; however, you can easily get full by the third dish.
Presentations on point, loved the authentic Thai way. In terms of taste, I would say the appetizers were overall better than the main dish. I felt the shrimps were raw, and the salads and sides were not tasty. I think it’s slightly expensive for the quality/taste of food. I would recommend it, but would probably choose from a La carte.

I've ordered from this place a few times and never ever had a bad meal. Stopped in tonight for dine in and everything was FANTASTIC.
We had pho and pad Thai special!!!

We first tried the brunch at Kiin in 2018 and last night finally made it there for dinner. The Royal Thai tasting menu was fantastic. Still cannot believe the value for how much food we got and the quality of each dish. Even after the amuse bouche we knew we were in for a great meal and there wasn’t a single miss. The dishes were so flavourful and there was a lot going on in every bite. The mango sticky rice was the perfect end to an amazing tasting menu. Service was attentive and friendly. They were also able to accommodate gluten free modifications with no issue. Can’t wait to dine here again!
10/10 tasty food. I had the spring rolls ( deep fried) and a vermicelli bowl. Very friendly staff. 100% worth the drive to Tilsonburg. 👍❤️😃
Pros:
- Service was quick and the 2 ladies who were serving us were really nice. One of them even gave us a complimentary mango salad
- Easy to find a parking spot
- Foods were reasonably priced. We ordered 8-9 meals and only spent around $120 altogether.
- Generous portions
- Tom Yum soup was delicious and their Malay Curry was outstanding too.
- Mango and Seafood salads were Yummy and refreshing.
- The ambience was nice for a family, and the place was cleanly maintained
- They offered some promos on deliveries and pickups
Cons:
- Their Samosa was a bit bland
- Marinated Grilled Chicken and Beef Fried Rice needed more seasonings or spices or more basil leaves, as they didn't have these kinds of strong Thai flavors as expected from Thai's dishes.
All in all I definitely recommend this place, and we'll come back to try their other menus.

The taste of the pad Thai is quite good. Portion is fine and very friendly staff. First time trying as they hv offer for B1F1. Will return to try other foods. If you are a spicy lover remember to ask them to make it spicy. Their chili is really spicy.
So good! It was our first time ordering from here and it totally exceeded our expectations. The Crispy Wontons are incredible and the Pad Thai was the best we’ve had in a while. We will definitely be back!
Surprisingly nice restaurant setup. The service was fast and their protein portion is respectful. Contrary to other Thai restaurants , they are generous in the portions.
I highly recommend it.
Their spring roll are great as well their special fried rice, comes with chicken and shrimp and a special spice That is delicious.
Same with their green curry which is smooth and tasty 😋.
Btw you need to try their spring rolls.

Super awesome hidden gem with super friendly staff. Love the traditional pad Thai and curry. Definitely would come again
Oh my God, this place serves the best Thai food in town. I will forever recommend this place to anyone looking for Thai food. Whether eating in or grabbing takeout, the food has been hot, super flavorful, and comes in large portions! The pad Thai had a unique taste to it and was quite nice. The chicken fried rice was mouthwatering. The spring rolls were so damn tasty. I really liked that they were deep-fried. Finally, I recommend their Mango Milkshake.
The food here is delicious! I would have to say it's some of the best Chinese food I have ever experienced. The atmosphere is nice, clean, and all in all great! I would highly recommend to go here!
We have ordered take out from here a couple times and have always been happy. Today we tried the dine in option at the restaurant. We were a bit thrown off by the lack of ambiance. However we were absolutely satisfied with our meal. Everything was so fresh and flavourful. It was an excellent meal. Each dish was presented much nicer than my pictures, (I took them after we had started to eat). A great place and we will be back.
A little music to cut the silence would be a nice addition.

The place is nice... You get a readable good meal at a fair price. It is a bring your own wine which to me is a positive.
The staff was very friendly and the food came out on time. We came here mainly for the Pad Thai as we have tried most of the Pad Thai in surrounding area and we love it. The Chicken Pad Thai here was good but not amazing. We also tried the pineapple fried rice but it was very bland, just white rice with a few veggies and pineapple.
Recently moved to the area and was pleased to find a Vietnamese Restaurant that gets such good reviews.
Ordered the BBQ pork vermicelli bowl and the pork was actually cooked on the BBQ!!! The flavour of the pork was amazing And I was pleased with the quality of the pork as well. The amount of food they give you is enormous! Had leftovers for lunch the next day! By FAR the best vermicelli bowl we’ve ever had!
The fresh spring rolls were very tasty as well!
Take out Service was very efficient and quick, everything all packed and waiting in less than 20 mins.
We will most certainly be ordering again!

We got a flyer in our mail so thought we would try it out. I had heard good things. The red curry here is awesome. We had it with the coconut rice. Despite the “spicy” in the name, you can get everything without spice.
I like that they have free delivery within 3km and you get free things if you order over a certain amount. We ordered over $40 and got some really yummy chicken fried rice.
Here is the flyer with the promos.

Good service food is delicious especially there soups I just wish there were open all week
good food, fair price
Good-tasting food, but rather small portions for the price.
The food was really good as well as the service. It was busy but pleasant. I'm definitely going again.
