Restaurant Phayathai

This is hands down the worst Pad Thai I have ever had. Very over priced too. I got it delivery and actually put it into a strainer and rinsed it off in an attempt to make it edible. Didnt work.
Even worse I accidentally went there to eat in person after getting them delivery. I didnt realize it until Id been seated and the delivery boy, who was also the waiter, came over to my table. Yeah, nightmare in process. So I ordered NOT the Pad Thai. Its a pretty looking place maybe they had something that wasnt like leftover vomit. I got a curry, soup, and salad. How could they all be bad?
They were bad. They were ALL bad. Theres this greasy taste that I couldnt quite put my finger on but it was in everything including the dressing for the salad. Its got to be their peanut sauce but then how did it get into the soup. On top of that the chicken tasted off. Like it had gone bad. In the end paid 50 dollars for everything and left very dissatisfied and having barely touched my meal.

Beware — one of the most disgusting dinning experience– the food is over priced, heavy on salt, and servings are small even if the meal for four was purchased via a Groupon coupon for $ 85 for a suppose meal valued at $ 178.90. I treated my family to their sister Phayathai restaurant in Blainville, Qc. on Friday night and we were disappointed with the slow service (one waiter). The pictures of the restaurant looks nice, but that’s deceiving. It felt like a home run business and not the elegant dining advertised. The restaurant felt greasy (open kitchen — very much like a greasy spoon from Chinatown, or La Faubourg St Catherine. The Blainville restaurant had no telephone and we had to call the Laurier one to book a table. Their interact and credit card machine was not working so we had to use cash (luckily we had enough to paid).

The pad Thai is very tasty but a bit too saucy. Unfortunately the green curry wasn’t so great, it was a bit watery and not very flavourful, I never ordered it again but I like the girl who works there, shes very nice.

We got delivery from here after seeing the good ratings on
. I have no idea what the ratings were for. We had the Basil Tofu and Red Curry Duck. The first was fine — the sauce a little oily — but just an average dish. The latter was just unacceptable. The curry itself was tasty but the pieces of duck were inedible; only bones, fat and skin with no actual meat. For a $ 17 plate of food I expected a lot more. Strongly wouldn’t recommend; maybe their dine-​in is better

Went here with my wife on our 10 year wedding anniversary based on reviews/​recommendations. The food was very tasty but the atmosphere was rather bland and the kids running around was not the romantic environment I was seeking. That said, I would go there again for take-​out next time I’m in town.

Went here based on good reviews and was extremely satisfied. We were a group of several ladies and requested the chef choose a variety of plates for us to share and he kindly complied. The flavors were spot-​on and the service friendly. I would not recommend this restaurant for large groups as it is quite small.

Wouldnt want to go there unless u want rat shit on ur plate!

Was at Phayathai on a weekday evening in March of this year with some girlfriends. Reservations aren’t necessary early in the week but should be made Thur., Frid. and weekends.
We were seated in a little alcove. It was comfortable and private. The service was impeccable, friendly and discrete.
We started with a plate of mixed appetizers. All 5 selections were delicious (dumplings, egg rolls, sweet dried beef, green mango salad and a fifth one I forget). It’s meant for 2 people but 3 of us ate from it and it was more than enough.
I had crab claws in a spicy sauce that was fantastic. The crab was sweet and plentiful and the sauce had the perfect balance of spices. My friends all had satay chicken which they all enjoyed very much. One of them stating is was one of the best satay sauce she had tasted. The dishes were accompanied by a choice of sticky or steamed rice that came in a separate dish.
When it was time for dessert, the waiter noticed a gift on our table and inquired whether it was someone’s birthday. As it was, the birthday girl was offered a free dessert. The dessert list consisted of sorbets and fried bananas. Desserts are good but not exceptional.
Presentations were beautiful throughout the entire meal.
Prices are very reasonable (it came out to approx. $ 20 per person) for that part of town and portions are a decent size.
All in all we had an excellent experience at PhayaThai on Laurier and I would definitely recommend it.
