Review from Julianna B.

I visited last night: the long and the short of it?
Ambiance: two stars. It's nice-looking, but the interior looks very 'cold' on a November night - dim and comfortless. Still, except for the ugly tiled floor, the finishes & furniture aren't bad.
Bathrooms: 1 star. You have to go down a service hallway to the stairs, then down into a low, low-ceilinged basement that smelled like sewer last night. The washroom itself really needs a new coat of paint, as the door & switchplate are grubby. Still, they are clean, if not irreproachably so.
Service: 3 stars. Our server went around at a desultory pace and didn't refill water glasses, but did check in to see how we were. They were having trouble with their computer system, so I wasn't able to pay with a card. Also, I asked how far north they deliver and never got an answer. Still, our server wasn't rude or anything, and I got the feeling she was helpful. Trust me.
Food: 5 stars. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. This comes a close second to my favourite Thai place in Toronto. The pad thai was a proper colour, not drowning in grease, and came with peanuts, green onions, and bean sprouts. The sauce was wonderful, as was the noodle texture. Our red curry was nutty and creamy and complex, filled with bamboo shoots, kaffir lime leaves, crisp veggies ,and chunks of lemongrass. We hunted through it for every last shred of food. Only minor complaint here: we ordered steamed rice and got a tiny, tiny bowl for the two of us that couldn't begin to absorb all the curried goodness.
They almost lost me at the washrooms, but they gained it back with that curry. I can't give the restaurant location more than three stars in good conscience, but the food is easily worth four or five stars. If I were in the area, I would get disgusting amounts of delivery.Listed in: Thai Thai Thai Love Love Love

Went there for a friend's birthday today. The food was really good and authentic. The portions were generous. We had many of the dishes on the menu.
However the environment and ambiance wasn't that great or else this place would be 5 stars. -

It's tough to screw up pad thai... but when the "sauce" is 40% ketchup I guess it's possible.
great portions though!
i've had better -

I had yellow curry pad thai my friend had regular pad thai. I did notice in the ingredients that was listed for pad thai included ketchup!
Clean, TV playing sports in the back, nothing spectacular. You could bring a date here.
