I am big fun of authentic pad thai but there is so many ketchup based pad thai out there which I hate.
However, this place also served the ketchup one.
When I asked the waitress, she said they can give me a authentic pad thai which based on tamarind sauce! No extra charge.
.....I LOVE IT. Chicken and shrimp was very soft....well cooked.
Service was excellent!! Very homey.
I would like to try green curry next time. -

I ordered the Cashews in Mango sauce with Shrimp and thought it was very yummy! I wish there was more cashews (I love cashews) and the saw was slightly less sweet. Overall, I enjoyed it.
We also ordered the pad thai and my boyfriend was not a fan of it at all. If you want pad thai, go to Sukho Thai. I promise it will be amazing.
We also ordered another thai basil noodle dish (I forget the name). It's also known as drunken noodles. I thought it was decent. I've had better. But, definitely decent.
Next time, I would try something else. -

Nice presentation here, especially the appetizers. The menu does not use Thai names for dishes, so if you are familiar with these, you'll have to match them up with the English descriptions. Prices are about average.
As the previous reviewer mentioned, the food was not amazing but it does seem like it would be very reliable. "Summer rolls" were very nice and the tom young had nice juicy prawns. My pad kra pow had thinner noodles than the usual and could have used a bit more spiciness.
Decor is simple. They seem to do a brisk delivery business in the area and have another location at Avenue and Davenport -

I love this place! My favourite order is tofu satay, which comes with a nice peanut dipping sauce, and KTM which is a vegan dish with shiitake mushrooms and chinese spinach (or spanich as their menu says!) I have also ordered curry there, and they were very accommodating about making it without fish sauce for me. I have also tried a spicy eggplant dish (I can't remember if it was actually called spicy eggplant but it had a lot of eggplant and was very spicy!) It was also very good, but too spicy for me.
Not all of the servers speak english very well but they are all very friendly, at least when I've been. I have only had one slightly negative experience, and it was nothing too major: once when I got take out, they forgot to include the peanut sauce for my tofu satay. It turns out that the sauce is where all the flavour comes from, so the satay was very disappointing that day. Aside from that my experiences have all been positive. -

Great Thai for the area. Friendly service and good atmosphere. We enjoy the green curry and have ordered quite a few other dishes. Their chicken lemongrass soup is quite nice on a cold day. This is our go-to place in the hood if we're feeling like Thai.

Four of us just stopped in for dinner and its a sure bet we'll be back, and probably soon. Now, it wasn't 'amazing' but it was certainly delicious and enjoyable, with a comfortable atmosphere. The staff was very nice and accommodating with a couple of special requests.

My weekly thai fix, I've been happy with every entre I've tried. I have to say the red curry is inconsistent, somedays it is spicy wonderfulness, and some times less so, different cook perhaps.

Maybe it was just the specific dish that I ordered, but Bua Thai has some of the better Thai food that I've had in a long time.
Had the Winter Rolls to start; nice and fresh, crisp and comes along with a tangy/spicy dipping sauce to boot.
For my entree, I had the Spicy Basil Noodle with Chicken. Generally speaking, if a Thai restaurant has a good Spicy Basil (sometimes Spicy Basil Leaf, or Thai Basil Leaf), it should be a good indication that it has some other good Thai dishes. For the record, Bua Thai has one of the top Spicy Basil dishes that I've ever had. The noodles were not soggy (I hate that), the peppers and onions were crisp, there wasn't TOO much basil leaf (which for me gets annoying), the chicken was evenly cut and tender, and the sauce gave things a good kick.
My cousin got the Red Curry, and he was happy with it.
Bottom line, I'm a fan of this place.
