Juree’s Thai Place

Stopped in yesterday on the way by. The food is absolutley delucious! The two of us had a green curry chicken and a panang beef, along side an order of coconut rice.
The meals were plated very well and were pretty good sized portions. They tasted so fresh and the sauces were very flavorful. Very traditional Thai.
The food came out pretty quick as we were the first ones in the door not realizing it opened at 11.
They offer a spicy scale of 1 to 5. The green curry was a 3 and the panang was a 5. And yeah the 5 is pretty spicy.
The restaurant did fill up rather quickly after we came in and there was only one server. A group of a dozen or so sat behind us as the other tables filled with 2 or more. The server did not even stress out even the least. And still came around to check in on us.
The only thing we noticed was the décor is a little cheezy and a bit over done. Ur kind of sitting in an artificial jungle. If they cleared it out a bit they could probably get in a few more tables. But the thought fades quickly once you have those delicious plates of food infront of you.
We will surely be back to this place or even slide by for a take out when in the mood for some tasty and spicy Thai.

Wonderful! We ordered the dinner for four for five people with the addition of a Tom yum soup and another curry. The décor of the restaurant is splendid and the waitresses are beautiful in their traditional clothes. Lots of groups and couples there for dinner, luckily we made a reservation as it was quite busy on a Friday night.
Everything is absolutely delicious, the appetizer platter is exquisite with their stuffed chicken wings, calamari, skewers and spring rolls. Plating is beautiful. The curries were amazing as well; I’m partial to the green curry over the red. Pad Thai is to die for. We also got a fresh fish instead of the fillets which tasted great, but be careful of bones! The vegetable dish was great as well. Either dessert is fresh and yummy!
For the price, you won’t get a better Thai meal that’s for sure. It came out to less than $ 30 per person plus tip and we were all thoroughly satisfied! Highly recommended!!!

My dine in experience was enjoyable with fast and friendly service. I’ve only come to Juree’s once for dinner but I’ve had take out a few times and enjoyed every meal so far. I recommend the Thai Green Curry (had it twice now) but I don’t think you can go wrong with any dish on the menu.
Maybe stay away from the $ 18 shared appetizer dish actually — my friend, Seano, bought it and it was definitely not worth $ 18

Had a very tasty family dinner here. Arrived at 7pm on a Friday and it was quite busy inside. We were seated quickly and ordered spring rolls to start. Loved they were served piping hot from the deep fryer and not lukewarm from a hot plate.
Next up, matsuman curry beef, house special tamarind fish, spicy vegetarian noodles, and gai lab with crispy pork. Enjoyed all of it. The beef was a bit chewy and skimpy but the sauce was lovely with fresh whole peanuts and chunks of potatoes. We asked the noodles to be spicy hot and they definitely made our nose sweat! You can ask for your heat level which is nice. Tamarind fish was our fave! Crispy batter in a sticky sweet sauce. Gai lan was a bit heavy on the garlic for my family but I did not mind. The crispy pork was different with a sweet crunch almost as if it was dredged in brown sugar and fried up. Our total bill was $ 88. Not including tip. We also had coke and tea with our meal.
Considering how hard it is to find good Thai food in this city, I enjoyed the service, ambience and food. A solid 4 stars for this place.

A good tasty Thai restaurant near lions park C-​train station. The interior design is Thai style.

Food was good. The service was really awful.

In a strip mall near North Hill Center, is a pretty tasty Thai restaurant. Despite its exterior looking like a Burger King (it most definitely used to be a Burger King), the décor on the inside is very Thai, with lots of bamboo dividers between tables and faux banana plants. I would have given this a 3.5, but I can’t do half stars on this site.
We ordered some papaya salad, tom yum soup, matsamun curry, green curry, and pad thai. The papaya salad was full of flavor and had the right amount of spiciness to it, probably the highlight for me. And the tom yum and pad thai were also really good.
The matsamun curry and green curry were unfortunately a bit dull, and lacked a flavorful punch. And the coconut rice was kind of dry as well, which can be forgiven since its doused in curry anyway.
The most surprising thing for me was the size of each dish. Everything ordered came at a reasonable price, and every dish was big enough for four people to leave satisfied and full (we were a party of three and ended up with leftovers). The service was great, as they were really attentive, and changed plates over the course of the evening when it was obvious that there was too much happening on the previous plate and everything turned into a curried mess.
Juree’s will never hold a candle to White Elephant, but at least this one is closer to me, has reasonable hours, and has more than 5 tables inside.

Decent.
I feel that it is one of the better Thai places I’ve been.
Randomly looked up Thai food and found this.
The great thing is they don’t close in the afternoon, so you can always get your fix.
The décor is out of this world. Transports me back to my month in Thailand.
The portions come in smaller sizes but can be shared. I suggest splurging and sharing multiple dishes.
They have a lunch buffet from 11 – 2 Wednesday — Friday.
The music is authentic. Very enjoyable atmosphere.

Wow, was really impressed by food and service. We had the coconut rice, green papaya salad, Pad Thai and Squid with Basil. Portions were good, the sweet Pad Thai was amazing, very flavorful. The green papaya salad was good (not as citrusy as I like), and the shrimps were tender and tasty. The squid had surprising mild undertones of licorice (maybe fennel?) and accented the squid. Service was good, the table for 2 was a bit on the small side, not enough room for plates. Thought the meal was exceptional. Want to go again soon!

Having lived in Asia for several years, I really miss good Asian food. A neighbor told us about this place, and best of all it’s only a few blocks from our house. Uphill the entire way unfortunately. But it was worth the trek! This is some of the best Thai food I’ve had outside of Thailand. I had a green chicken curry and wife had beef and vegetable dish. The food was all aromatic and flavorful, perfectly cooked and well-​presented. The coconut rice is phenom! The restaurant itself has a lovely atmosphere, with a Buddha shrine just like you’d find in most places of business in Thailand. I knocked off a star because the service was really slow, even after the restaurant cleared out. Seemed like only two girls were working the entire restaurant; one of the waitresses complained that everyone had called in sick that day and it was super busy even for a Sunday night. Also I thought the price is high but then, everything is in Calgary.

It’s a beautiful restaurant. The waitresses wear traditional Thai dresses and are very pleasant. On the other hand, the food isn’t that good. They cheap out on some key ingredients. I detected maybe 5 grams of lemongrass in my Green Curry and minuscule amounts of galangal in the Tom Yum.
It’s important to know they actually mean it when they say something is spicy. If you order the «Thai spicy,» you’d better be prepared for a challenge!

Best Thai soups in the city as far as I’m concerned. I dream about this soup. The Tom Yum Kai and the Tom khaa Kai. Flavorful broth, perfect balance of sweet sour salt and spice. When you dine in you get a huge bowl with a big slurping spoon. Tried to replicate these soups at home, close but no cigar. Nothing beats the real thing. I’ve tried these soups at many other Thai restaurants in town but so far none are quite as good. So definitely get the soup. The matsuman beef curry is also delicious. Great atmosphere in the restaurant too, green and lush planty vibes all around.

Awesome Tia food. Never been disappointed. Coconut rice is a must everytime we go.
Enjoy

Last night was the first time I’ve tried this place even after having lived in the area for over 3 years. The food tasted great and the service was good as well. The portions were large enough to make us feel that we should have split an appetizer and one main between the two of us. They definitely are flavourful and worth going to again.
I found it a little odd that they had a TV next to where we were sitting that was showing what seemed to be advertisement for Thailand. It wasn’t unpleasant but seemed out of place.

I have been to Thailand many times and my favorite curry was always massaman curry. We ordered it and I must say it is so authentic! ! The ginger beef was also amazing and the flavours just really flowed together. We got a large pot of coconut rice and probably finished half of it (and took the rest home of course). Prices are very decent for the dishes and the service was very good. We will totally be coming back here on a monthly basis!

I am headed to Juree’s today for their lunch buffet and am salivating already. Every time I am there (always for lunch), their buffet is stellar and floods me with memories of visiting Thailand. Some of the food is very rich but its balanced with light and refreshing options like green mango salad and yummy chili sauces. If they happen to have salad rolls out, please leave some for me — they’re chock full of mint and basil and are the best in the city (oops. Meant to keep that one quiet). Juree even promised me the crispy-​fried, street-​food style bananas found in Chaing Mai (that are IMPOSSIBLE to find here) if I called ahead for a meal at dinner time. Love this place.

Located in the corner of a plaza the restaurant is a former fast food place cleverly converted into a Thai restaurant. The layout and décor is sumptuous and beautiful creating the feeling of actually being in Thailand without feeling too Disney like or being too kitsch. All the tables are laid out so you have a feeling of being in a private space. After so many restaurants cramming together tables NYC style so you are bumping elbows with the person beside you it is a pleasant change, creating an intimate dining experience.
The staff all decked out in beautiful Thai outfits is friendly, polite and accommodating to everyone’s needs. The menu features a good selection of Thai dishes, including some beautiful tiny purple flower appetizers. We had a selection of different curries and pad Thai and the food was everything one would expect from a good Thai restaurant. Not to be missed for any one craving Thai food in Calgary.

Yum yum yum.
I love me some Thai food.
I’ve been to Juree’s several occasions now. It brings my taste buds and stomach such happy memories to write this review!
Atmosphere: I think I heard that this place used to be a McDonalds or Burger King? Ha, both times I’ve eaten here, I got sat in the old Play place. That aside: when you walk into a Juree’s, you walk into a bodacious forest of fake greens. The restaurant has a traditional Thai setting (in my opinion), decorations included and was pretty comfortable.
Service: Every time I come, I’m always given good service. From the looks of it, it seems to be a family run restaurant!
Food: I’ve never been to their lunch buffet, but their dinner is delicious! They have quite the menu to choose from, and everything I have had was tasty!
Must haves: you must have their specialty tamarind fish. It is so good! Perfectly crispy on the outside, a beautiful flakey inside and accompanied with a scrumptious sauce. Their coconut rice is also on par.
This is my go-​to Thai place! Check it out!

Very nice décor and amazing food presentation. Service is good. My first time having authentic thai so it was too scented flavour for me. Very high end restaurant feeling.

Juree’s is pretty tasty Thai in a nice room, especially if you love artificial plants.
If you’re in the hood and in need of some Thai, Juree’s is pretty darn good! The atmosphere is peaceful and there are enough artificial plants to give you a decently private dining experience.
I stopped in for the lunch buffet that runs Wednesday — Friday from 11am — 1pm. I’d imagine the menu changes, but for $ 13.50 you get your unlimited pick of a couple different curries and rice, pan fried fish cakes, a couple different salads including this scrumptious spicy pineapple one, and desert. I showed up close to the end of buffet time and everything was pretty good, but I wound up in my usual buffet conundrum. I just can’t eat enough mediocre buffet food to make it worth the price. Other tables food came out quickly and looked delicious, and here I was scraping the bottom of buffet bins. If you’re the kind of person that is usually satisfied with the portion of food you receive at a restaurant, I’d recommend bypassing the buffet. If you’re in a rush and need to stuff you face, by all means, hit it up!
The standout buffet item to me was this creamy, sweet desert that tasted like a warm pudding concoction of coconut milk and sweetened condensed milk, loaded with root vegetables what I think was sweet potatoes, taro root, and something else I can’t even come close to naming. LIke with most buffet items it was pretty easy to get over zealous with the quantity, and this stuff is filling!
I’d love to give Juree’s another shot and this time miss out on the buffet. My longing for a great Thai restaurant with takeout within a 10 minute walk from my house warrants some further investigation. Until next time, Jure’s is A-​OK.
