I love this Thai restaurant. I recently moved out of this area and tried a few other Thai places in the King/Bathurst area but none compare to Pi-Tom's. Even though my new place is outside of their delivery area, I will be making the trip to Pi-Tom's for Thai food since I haven't found anything that compares.
Green Curry Chicken and vegetables is amazing, the portion sizes are very large.
Delicious! -

This is the first time I have stayed in this part of Toronto. I was desperate to find some good grub close to my hotel. I set out and walked two blocks in each cardinal direction from my hotel and Pi Tom looked the most promising.
On my first visit to a new Thai place, I always order Pad Thai. If the Pad Thai sucks or is average, I know the rest of the food will be pretty uninspiring.
They offer Pad Thai and "Authentic Pad Thai". I opted for the Authentic. It included chicken and small shrimps with noodles wrapped in a crepe. This was a first for me. There was an excellent balance of sweet, sour and salty. I added liberal doses of Thai chili paste to add heat.
I also had an order of curry rice. Good _gravy_; this is enough for 4 appetizers! It was so good though, that I took the rest back to the hotel to reheat later.
On my second visit, I branched out a little. I ordered an appetizer of Fried Calamari to start. Calamari is tricky. You have to either cook it very quickly, or for a long time to make it tender. Pi Tom cooked it to fried tender perfection. It was only slightly chewy. Bravo.
My main course was beef curry. Although the cut of beef was a mongrel cut of fatty meat, the curry sauce overcame any qualms with the meat. I would compare this curry broth with the Roti Prata dipping sauce at Banana Leaf in Milpitas, CA. It was fantastic.
Pi tom's is right across the street from the Hilton Garden Inn (Jarvis and Dundas). -

Jarvis is not really an area I frequent but our friends had some sort of coupon for Pi-Tom's new location. I guess they are trying to drive some business which is a smart move! So points for getting involved...
Our waitress was super awesome. Our table of six and our waitress was a good chemistry and I knew it was going to be a good meal. Granted it wasn't very busy but drinks orders were placed and all arrived in a matter of minutes. I like this. And when she came with the drinks she asked if we were ready to order, and we sort of did it on the fly -- asking her opinion on certain dishes and she basically walked us through our order.
The food came fast and furious and we ate it up like vacuums. Everything we ordered was delicious and the service was dead-on. I can't really think of two more important things than this, so Pi-Tom's gets two thumbs up from me upon my first visit.
