Review from Corrupted M.
Scarborough, ON
10/18/2011
Went there on a tuesday nite in a group of 13 people.
Ordered:
1) Mango Salad
2) Chillie Chicken
3) Basil Beef
4) Green Curry (Chicken)
5) Red Curry (Chicken)
6) Pad Thai
7) Tom Yum Soup
and bunch of other stuff.
The restaurant itself was clean and modern for a Scarborough Thai restaurant. The food was pretty good, but then again, I've had better in Thailand ; ).
What made it a good experience was the staff was really friendly and very prompt, serving a party of 13 is not an easy task, but they were really fast on changing bowls/plates after our soup and appetizer course.
The chef even came out to say hello and to check on us and was asking for the feedback on his food - very classy service. -

I love Specials.. Especially Lunch Specials...
Lime Leaf takes Specials to the max.. as not only you can get good specials during lunch, in fact they have ALL DAY SPECIALS!
Malay Mee Goreng with Spring Roll or Soup ($6.95)
- Spring roll was so good... freshly deep fried to just light golden brown.. crispy on the outside and steaming hot vegetables filling inside
- Mee Goreng is not bad... a little on the oily side...with a good mix of veggie..what lacking is some fresh chilli
- I was trying to ask the waitress for some dried chili flakes to spice up the dish a little.. but she just pointed to the chili oil on the table.. oh ok!
Thai Ice Tea ($2.50)
- Nice and refreshing... not overbearingly sweet...
Good Value, Nice Deco... I definitely recommend giving Lime Leaf a try if you in the area... though it is not the best Thai/Malaysian restaurant in Toronto but good if you want something decent... -

Good Thai Food and Very Reasonable Prices :))) The Staff were Very Friendly and the Service Great. One of the Nicer Restaurants in the area of Scarborough ... Which was quite a surprise ... a diamond in a rough one could say. Will Most Definitely Come Again !!!

I don't enjoy writing poor reviews but after giving Lime Leaf two chances I have to admit I'm not impressed.
I love Thai and Malaysian cuisine and usually I'm not too picky but how can a restaurant serve substandard Tom Yum Soup and gloppy (is that a word?) red veggie curry. yick!
On my first visit I got 2 take out orders of Tom Yum soup. The broth wasn't very flavourful. The tofu inside the soup tasted "old". I didn't enjoy it and didn't finish my food.
The second time I tried the red curry with tofu + eggplant. They must have put too much coconut milk or something because the normally saucy curry was gloppy. Sadly, my tummy was turning after just a few bites and writing this review brings back those unpleasant memories.
I tried to force the leftovers the next day as to not waste food but could only manage a few bites. The taste of the curry was also off, to me.
Unfortunately, I won't be returning to Lime Leaf. -

I just happened to be in the neighborhood shopping for clothes, and I got hungry. I decided on the Lime Leaf basically because it was the only place around. But it turns out scarcity doesn't always breed mediocrity.
This was not even close to the best Thai food I've had in the city, but it certainly was better than many places I've tried. The staff was prompt, gracious and cute, and they bring out shrimp chips to everyone, I love shrimp chips! The restaurant itself is well decorated, clean and modern and they had chic-but-still-usable table service.
You can't argue with a $6.50 lunch special either. I got the beef panang and it was way too mild... I should have asked them to make it spicy. Other than the lack of spice, the veggies were fresh, the beef was tender and the panang curry was pretty good. The lunch special comes with a spring roll, and I also got a satay for starters and a Thai iced tea. The iced tea came pre-mixed with some toasted coconut sprinkled on top (as an aside, why are we putting solids in our beverages?? Isn't this counter-intuitive? Choking risk?), and it was pretty good, but was from a bottle. Those of you who have had fresh Thai iced tea know what I mean.
So if you find yourself at Eglinton Square Mall and don't want generic food-court garbage, just cross Vic Park and hit up the Lime Leaf. It's A-OK. -

Best Thai food in Scarborough! Seriously, it is comparable to Satay on the Road in Leaside but as a Scarborough resident the location and free parking makes Lime Leaf a winner. Found out about this place from a coworker and haven't been back to Satay on the Road since. Friendly staff and really quick service. Best dishes include green curry chicken, crispy beef, mango salad, fresh spring rolls and pad thai.
