This is a little family run restaurant, reliable authentic thai food, nothing fancy. It is very casual sit in or take out. The staff are friendly and very helpful My relatives live around here so we like to come here for a casual dinner once in a while. We like their curries, pad Thai, basil noodles, and fried rice. I love the vegetarian spring rolls(I think they use taro root for the filling). Overall it is a good and casual thai restaurant if you are in the area.

I have been here a few times and really love this place. Not fancy, just really fresh, great Thai food. Always the same friendly woman taking your order and always the same great female cook in the open kitchen. I order the spicy eggplant with brown rice every time.

This is a solid choice for inexpensive Thai takeout/delivery. The owner is simply the nicest man you will ever meet. To those writing poor reviews: it’s cheap Thai takeout! It’s not supposed to be Momofuku. Jeez.

This location is great for students, and the guy at the front always has the brightest smile and the most enthusiastic attitude! I strongly advise NOT to get any noodle dish, but their curry bowls are PHENOMENAL! I’m constantly craving them. Their prices are decent, huge selection under $ 10, but as a poor student I can’t go as often as I’d like. They’re very accommodating if you don’t want a certain ingredient and you get to check the level of spicy that you want, which is pretty cool. I recommend it(minus the noodles) and will definitely be back many more times.

I’ve always wanted to go here but that never materialized. Until today that is. It was a rainy day and I was craving pad Thai. Then I remembered this place. I was greeted by a friendly woman at the counter. I ordered the shrimp pad Thai(medium spicy) to go. This was by far the worst pad Thai I’ve had in a long time. They skimped on the green onion and coriander. I couldn’t taste any tamarind(which is my favorite part). Overall it was just bland. That small piece of lime wedge couldn’t save the mound of noodles. Worst part of all, there was a huge piece of plastic tape or some kind of packaging in my pad Thai. I threw all of it in the garbage where it belongs as soon as i seen it. This shows me that no care is taken when preparing the food here. These kinds of places make me weary of trying new places. I should have read some reviews on Unilocal

I used to frequent this place quite a bit since I live close by – it was pretty good, not the best in town, but good for a quick bite – however, after a few scary experiences(scary for a vegetarian, that is), I now avoid this place like the plague. Basically, the green vegetable curry, which was my go-to meal, arrived with a meat bone floating around in it. I returned it and was promised this was some freak accident where a bone accidentally fell into what they promise is a pristine meat free vegetable curry pot. A few weeks later, it happened again… this time it was a piece of meat. They again swore this was an accident. Third time’s a charm, but I chose to stay away rather than get another meaty surprise in my «vegetarian» curry. If you don’t mind surprise meat in non-meat dishes, the meals were alright, perhaps a little too pricey for what you get. The owners are incredibly friendly, though.

If there’s a negative rate is definitely the worse restaurant I had in my life. One of my order for my delivery was mango sticky rice. After I open the box, the mango is hard and white. I got angry and call the restaurant. The old guy pick up the phone and explain it is not their fault, the mango is from«south America» and bunch of nonsense, such the mango is raw. I told him this is not right, and should tell me the problem beforehand. Cause I don’t believe anyone would eat a nasty raw fruit, I told him your store doesn’t promise quality of your food, just like your food is undone. And I can’t believe he say, you can see the picture in our menu, which there isn’t in the website AND have to take the risk of delivery. NOWIT’S MYFAULTTHAT I HAVETOEATRAWFRUIT?! Not reasonable man as he is like and i am frustrated with it. But it’s ok, it is his pity to lose a costumer. these kind of «boss» usually don’t have his restaurant last long, it’s so pity. and honest opinion, the food is two-star rate and the price isn’t cheap either. You can find way better food on yonge or bloor st. All I wrote, I posed it with pictures. Horrible restaurant.

I just stop by this place because I want a Thai food.8.95 $ for a padthai which was the worse padthai I ever have in my life. The noodle is too soft and soak with water. Sauce was very sour with no other taste. I only ate a shrimp in the plate and leave all the noodle part. Seafood fries rice with crab sauce was not bad. If you like salad king fried rice, then this place is pretty similar. Good smell of garlic and a lots of seafood. Give 3 stars for this place. I also order«tom yum» with coconut milk. The taste was not bad but it not pretty close to an original tom yum. They put a lettuce in the Tomyum soup. I am from thailand and I never see any Tomyum like this before. Overall, I think this place is too pricy for a take home delivery food. There are a couple table for you to eat there. It looks like more cafeteria than a restaurant. Go to salad king will be better taste and better place.

Reviewed Dish: Thai Basil Noodle with Chicken I was surprised the Thai Basil Noodle tasted exactly the same as Salad King, then I found out the chef from Salad King started this restaurant! The meat here tasted better than Salad King. It’s a pity it so far away from Yonge Street.

Terrific little place, unfailingly helpful and friendly service. Not the fanciest joint, but a reliable place in the neighbourhood, delivers rain, sun, or snow. It’s strictly a mon’n’pop operation, so keep your expectations measured, but you just might fall in love with the place.

This place looks very sketchy from outside, but after reading some Unilocal reviews, we decided to give it a go. We ordered and paid at the cash register and filled our own glasses of water. Items are all under $ 10. Our generous portioned meal was served quickly after ordering by the friendly cashier/order taker. We shared the taro spring rolls and theywere alright. I ordered the basil fried chicken and requested it to be very spicy, but it wasn’t at all. I’m told that the spicy fish was quite good. All the food was served fresh, but definitely wasn’t authentic Thai.

Not bad, pretty typical take out thai, not as good as I had expected considering I had heard that the cooks and owners were former employees of Salad King and they were replicating the same menu items. The food was not of the same quality taste-wise and the portions were small. The most frustrating part was the the delivery man came with only a pocket full of change, so when I paid my bill he ended up with a nearly $ 10 tip because all he could give me was a handful of quarters and a few loonies from his pocket. Needless to say, I was not happy. For this reason alone I would not recommend this place… there is better, or at least comparable places in the city that I would go to before here again.

Flip and toss. I am a fan! The chicken pad Thai was so flavorful. There were many things in it like tofu, vegetables and of course, well seasoned big chunks of chicken. I big pet peeve about Pad Thai is that there usually to much sauce, but these guys nailed it! The service was friendly and fast. All for a good price too! Strongly recommend you go here!

What I expected: cheap thai food. What I got: cheap thai food with a smile. I’ve now been here three times and tried the Cashew Chicken, the Panang Chicken, and the Pad Thai. All are good and veggies are fresh, but there could be more of them. Service is really quick and friendly and there is a small amount of seating if you’re dining in.

regular Thai food at a regular price. Absolutely nothing special whatsoever, which nine times out of ten is exactly what I’m looking for in a thai joint. Pad Thai is light and flavourful and service is quick. I found the spring rolls underwhelming, but then I’d just eaten at Golden Turtle and it’s hard to compare. If you’re in the neighbourhood and too lazy to look further it’s a fine choice for a mid-week meal.

Can you get great Take-Out …that is fast and super friendly every time? Here you can :) My Buddy introduced me to this neighborhood Thai Take-Out Kitchen and I have been back MANY times since. For under $ 10 you get a Super Tasty Thai dinner on rice. I had the Basil Chicken Yesterday and loved it:(Carrots, bell peppers, onions, garlic, and basil in a mild Thai sauce). .but next time I am going to have what my friend had, the Golden Curry. I recommend the Spring Rolls too… they are really good too :) They have been written up in newspapers before for their service and food. Come by and say hi to WEI th owner… Another GEM! :)

Solid place for cheap Thai food and they deliver too! I ordered from them with a bunch of co-workers when we were working late. They were fast and reliable. I had the panang curry tofu, «mild»(still quite spicy given that I’m pretty wimpy with spice, but not too too spicy). The pieces of tofu were huge and delicious. I only wished there was more broccoli and red peppers. Other people ordered the pad thai, mango salad, green curry chicken, friend rice, and basil beef — they all seemed pretty happy with their dishes too.

Cheap Thai food. Get a big pile for just under $ 9. Small place despite the long outdoor store front. You can get the spicy from 0 – 5 or 1 – 6(conflicting scales advertised). I got a 4. Had to drink about 2 litres of water. It made me very uncomfortable, and I think the workers from the orient were laughing at my arrogance and following punishment. I tried the pad thai with a spicy level of 2– which was delicious. Guess the owners came from Salad King. This is way better than that(not saying THAT much, though). PS They don’t have any milk.

I always love to visit places that are vegetarian-friendly, somewhere I can go with any of my friends to eat. So I dropped in to Flip and Toss this past Friday to see what I could try. A quick scan of the vegetarian menu on the chalkboard revealed a couple of options I was interested in — when I stepped up to order I asked if I could have the Golden Tofu Curry, but without the fish sauce it had noted up there. The response I got was along the lines of «no, the fish sauce is in there and it’s pre-made, all the curries must have fish sauce in there for the taste.» A little confused I asked why the curries were on the vegetarian menu, but was pretty much dismissed when he decided to take a phone order in the middle of serving me. I waited for this to be done, and decided to just order one of the non-curries on the vegetarian menu, as there was a lineup building behind me and I don’t like to be problematic. The cashier barely spoke to me except to confirm my order, but as I sat down and watched him serve the rest of the line I saw him be far more polite and offer up things like glasses of water to folks. When I did get my food I had to ask for water, and was given a small glass that would’ve been barely a cup of water. When my meal was done, the restaurant was quiet with no lineup and I felt I could bring up my issues with the poor service with the cashier — I didn’t want to just leave there and drop negative feedback on Unilocal without first trying to resolve it at the source. When trying to tell him I felt I got poor attitude and dismissive service, and that his vegetarian menu was misleading if it had fish sauce in half of what’s on there, he kept barking irrelevant questions back at me and even just walked away from me at one point. I don’t ever go into a restaurant with the aim of making trouble and I truly wanted to give this little restaurant a chance — instead I was given the worst customer service i’ve received anywhere in Toronto, and left feeling utterly demoralised. Flip and Toss, your one star is for the food(Spicy Tofu, $ 7.96) — while it was a little more expensive than it should be for the quality and quantity, at least it was edible and didn’t have an attitude.

This is my favourite place to go in the city. It’s cheap, the food is amazing, and the owners are the nicest people in the world. It’s as if your parents opened a Thai restaurant and for some reason still charge you. Great for vegetarians/vegans, they have a lot of different options. I tend to always get the Country Fried Tofu since it’s so amazing, its tofu and veggies on rice with a sorta sweet garlic sauce. I highly recommend trying it. 1 word of warning, they will ask you«how spicy do you want it?» You have the option of 0 – 5. You might want to start off small. I’ve had friends who like a lot of spice ask for 4 – 5, and had their faces melted right off their body. Be careful.
