I regularly go to this restaurant and I also order from them on doordash. One thing to note if you order from doordash the dishes are all a few dollars more expensive. Let’s start with the stir fried dishes. Most of the basic thai stir fried dishes like basil chicken and their noodles like pad Thai is very average. I personally hate it when they put bell pepper in a thai basil chicken. Anybody who had eaten a Thai basil chicken in Thailand will never ever see bell peppers in a basil chicken. This seems to be a common practice here which over powers the actual chilli garlic and basil flavor. Nobody also puts onions in a basil chicken dish. The pad Thai is what you will get in any Thai joint in North America , 50 percent authentic and it’s too sweet. There should be a balance if sweet sour and salty in a pad Thai. The papaya salad is good not great. The salted crab papaya salad they also peanuts which is unusual not usual but it’s ok. Some if the sea food dishes from the chef special menu for stand out and get prepared well. The whole garlic fish fried is nice. I also like their Tom yum noodle soup. It’s spicy sour and good fresh herbs flavors. I do like their tod man plaa or the fried fish cakes. They do a good job at that and the way they present it is good also. The chef special dishes usually give you a better culinary experience while the other dishes are quite average. Yes they use authentic ingredients and I have not sensed any time so far where I felt they used frozen or ready made ingredients. The cooks in the back are Thai or lao and I have heard them speaking and so I know they have the potential to cook up much more authentic dishes. I hope they can innovate and be bold and execute the dishes the way people eat it in thailand. It is a good place to go as a group of four or five as their is good seating space. It’s also a good place go with family. Lastly their mango sticky rice is well made. The mango has always been fresh and not over riped and the sticky rice hot wish nice milky coconut milk. Not too sweet and not too sour mango. The selection of dishes is good. A good balance of stir fry, soups, curry, sea food , noodles etc. If I was in Thailand I would have rated this place 1.5/5, but being in North America I give them a 3/5. Definitely an above average place. But not good. Part 2: went bad tried the papaya salad with crab Thai hot. It was very good and authentic like Thailand. Also tried the tilapia fried fish. The food has improved.

A little thai place tucked away in a plaza of chinese restaurants, life would seem to be hard but apparently it’s not that bad. Inside, the tables and plating are really neat, and the owners are very polite. I like to use Tom yum as the measurement for how good a Thai place is. The flavors are complex that’s why. Thai Cafe’s Tom yum is slightly on the sour side, the shrimp are a good size but they are over cooked, also not enough of a lemon grass flavor. The satay is very flavorful, but the meat doesn’t stay moist, drys quickly

Delicious Thai Basil and Thai Tea. I’d recommend the lunch special, but the soup wasn’t flavorful. I’d have preferred if I could have substituted it or upgraded it for Tom Ka. The soup was set out upon arrival. While considerate, the broth was really flavorless.

Taste of food is not that great, it’s average. We have ordered to-go couple of times, one time they got the spice level wrong, second time we had order small quantity soup, they had charged us for large and gave small. This time they have given all burnt roti. When we called the restaurant, they said they will call us back and now they are not picking up the call. Worst experience.

I had a hot pot. It was pretty good but like in most Thai places they put huge ginger pieces which overpowered all other flavor when you took a bite of it. Would have been 5 star if they had cut ginger smaller.

We ordered Cashew chicken, yellow curry, pineapple fried rice, and some chicken satay with peanut sauce. Everything was delicious and was good portion size for $80-90 (3 – 4people). Unfortunately I didn’t get a photo of the dishes, but they were vibrant fresh and hit the spot!
