I love this place!!! Absolutely the best Thai food you can get around! Every time I go through Newmarket I must stop in and grab some! The staff are super friendly and hard working people never a disappointment!

I’ll start by saying this place redeemed itself after making me a potentially miserable patron. I went to pick-up food yesterday. It took about 30 minutes for everything to be ready once I placed the order. I walked in, and though the place was really charming. It looked really clean, the colours were warm, and the décor was really pretty(along the back wall). We ordered 5 items, which I’ll go into detail about later: chicken Thai spring rolls, emerald green chicken curry, steamed rice(cause apparently the curry doesn’t come with rice), glass chicken noodles, and spicy noodles with chicken. I usually take inventory of what we get before I leave a restaurant, but they tied this bag so tight that I could only count by sight. I counted 5 containers, which was great cause I ordered 5 items. Well, you can see where this is heading, I get home and we were missing the glass noodles. This happened because the spicy noodles came in two separate containers. The servers DID notice this and called me twice and left a message. Well, of course I couldn’t answer, being a responsible driver and all. So I got home and called them back. They were really apologetic and drove the food over themselves(which isn’t a service they usually offer). That isn’t why I gave 3-stars. I felt they really went above a beyond, it was a human error after all! We all make them. But the food just wasn’t anything overly exceptional in my opinion. The spring rolls and glass noodles were the best part of the meal. –The glass noodles were flavourful with bok choy, chicken and onions. –The spicy noodles, really weren’t spicy at all. But they had a lot of chicken and bell peppers, so it was still tasty enough. It was odd to me that we had to mix the noodles and sauce ourselves. I am curious why they serve it this way, not that it makes a big deal… –Finally, the emerald curry… it was pretty standard. How a restaurant can offer curry without rice, is beyond me. That aside, the chicken was good, and the few vegetables in the dish(broccoli, bamboo shoots and mini-corn) were cooked well. But it’s a whole lot of money for a really mundane dish. I would probably go back, but only for lunch when they have their specials. Our entire meal came to $ 53

Amazing. Dare I say the best north of the GTA and probably even better then any Thai cuisine I’ve been to before. The owner is amazing. She takes the time to ensure her customers are treated very well and it’s always a pleasure to converse with her while waiting on the food. The food. Delicious! I order the pad Thai here numerous times and it is definitely top notch. Lots of flavour and with a generous portion that no one can complain for the price. The soup, skewers, down to the mango salad — don’t think I’ve had better. Take the time to venture out north here if your not from around the area like me for this gem and I guarantee you won’t be disappointed. Do wish it was closer =(! Keep up the great service and food!

— Appetizer platter was lackluster. Not worth ordering. — Mango salad tasty, but rather small portion for the price. — Fried fish was super salty, as was the soup. — Watery chicken curry with overcooked veggies and not much flavour. The chicken looked & tasted like it was just boiled. — The seafood dish was the only one everyone really enjoyed: lots of shrimp, mussels, and squid, all perfectly cooked. Not sure if we’d go back…

It is one of the best Thai restaurants in GTA. I am originally from Asia and love Thai food. The curry here may not be the best in Thailand but certainly way above average here. My son loved their pad thai and said this is the best pad thai he’s ever tasted(he is a pad thai nut and only orders pad thai in a thai restaurant :)) The mango salad is a bit too sweet for me but my wife and son seemed to like it very much.

I would say it’s the worst Thai food I’ve ever had. Don’t know if other people have tried Thai food in other places. But this restaurant was not even close to authentic Thai food I’ve had before. It was not real Thai. The curry was basically water and all vegetables were overcooked. It was my first and last time at this restaurant.

One of the best restaurants I’ve visited. Not only is the food great(reasonably priced, FRESH and presented well) the owners and staff just got it right. They are attentive, polite and even joked around with our baby(he couldn’t get enough of the pretty waitress!). They seem genuinely concerned about you having a good experience here. But at the same time do not hang around too much which is a delicate balance haha. Seems to me they didn’t want to waste their time opening a restaurant like some owners inexplicably do. Like one of the other reviewers said they actually remembered us from about a year ago. Pointed out that our oldest didn’t come with us this time(teens!). A gem in Newmarket. Oh and by the way mussels in the seafood platter. I was impressed — haven’t seen that in a long time.

Me and my friend went to bangcock Thai and it was one of the best experiences that I had at a restaurant. We had the sesame beef and one of the best dishes I always get it when I go there ! We also got the garlic shrimp and also very tasty and cook well ! Service is amazing ! Thank you !

I cannot say enough about this restaurant. As soon as we entered the restaurant we were immediately greeted by the waitress/host. She is extremely nice and accommodating. She makes you feel welcome. Restaurant itself looks and is very neat and clean. Very well maintained. We were a group of six people. We ordered their chicken pad thai, mango salad, apple salad(i believe that’s what it was called), an egg plant dish and two red curries. All of our dishes tasted amazing and we have tried many Thai restaurants all throughout Richmond Hill and Toronto. Personally I had the chicken pad thai and it was very delicious. It was not too watery or too oily, it was just right. The waitress is very fast, clears your table quickly, checks up on you often and asks you how the food is, which is great. The prices here are also very good and reasonable, especially considering what you get for what you pay. I will definitely come back and highly recommend this restaurant.

One of the best Thai food I have ever had. I will travel out of my way, for Bangkok Thai. I live in Toronto but will make the trip for this food! Must have is the Pad Thai. And the Chicken Cashew! I love it! A must have!

Looking for a delicious asian/thai restaurant in the Newmarket area? This is definitely the place to go! Firstly, I’d like to mention that the interior design of the restaurant gave a culturally sophisticated aura. Cute christmas lights dangled around the centre stone pillar, while Thai paintings and trinkets were accessorized along the walls. The tables were also beautifully set up with clean white drapes and glass coverings. Overall, the restaurant left a BIG impression, despite it’s smaller space arrangement. Secondly, the food was perfectly balanced! I ordered the«Emerald Green Curry» with a side of «Coconut Rice», and I must say… it was delicious! The coconut rice wasn’t overpowering, nor was it heavy. The chefs didn’t skimp out on the meat in the curry(which I feel like most restaurants do), and the portions were on the larger side — so the pricing was reasonable for what you got. «You get what you pay for» and my taste buds were very satisfied. Lastly, the owner was amazing! Although the general service was decent, the owner left a great impression on my friends and myself! She was very welcoming and hilarious. We plan on coming back the next time we come back up in the Newmarket area :)

Good, fast and cheap…3 things I like in my restaurants. I’ve only gone for lunch and had take out here so I can’t comment on the dinner menu. but judging by the lunch one this place is GOOD. I generally pick from the lunch specials which are under $ 10. With that you get soup/egg roll/main dish which for me is perfect. How can you possibly go wrong with that. There is a nice kick to the dishes — but not overtly spicy… which if you are eating for lunch and then have to go back to the office — well that’s a good thing! This restaurant is pretty big inside so great for groups. It’s clean and all the staff are super friendly. I always get their Lunch specials so don’t know if they have more variety for dinner. It’s a great Thai option in Newmarket… but it’s not the best Thai I have had.

I really owe this place an update. I went there on the busy Family day weekend. We were greeted relatively quickly but it took them some time to find us a spot. I wasn’t surprised since the restaurant looked super busy and many of the tables hadn’t been cleared up. I guess they were short staffed. We got a complimentary order of Chicken Spring Rolls. They were delicious! So crispy, light and packed with a punch of great flavours. They tasted even better with the sweet, sour and spicy sauce. I ordered the Shrimp Fried rice. I loved the garlicky taste… the shrimp was cooked perfectly. The Mixed Seafood Basil was also very nicely done and had loads of shrimp, mussels and squid along with plenty of veggies. Another dish we tried was the Crispy Basil Chicken which was a winner as well. The food was incredible. It was lighter than many of the other thai restaurants which put loads of grease and heavy cocunut milk in their dishes. At the same time they had a pretty huge portion… enough for us to take home for another meal. So don’t worry, you wouldn’t leave this place feeling hungry. I know that in my last review I compared them to SukhoThai but it absolutely doesn’t make sense now. The food is equally fabulous and much more reasonably priced. Also, this is a restaurant where the customer is king! They won’t leave you waiting at the front for more than 30 mins just to get you seated. The owner Vi was super friendly and chatty. She really cares about all the customers. I mentioned that I would love it if they put some lemon grass in the curries. She assured me that the next time I order she would make a special request to the chef to include lemongrass in it. I was really impressed. Here’s another example of the impeccable service we received that night. My husband forgot to tell them that he likes his curry spicy and when the food was delivered we asked them if they could give us some chilli sauce. However, the owner is so awesome, she offered to get it done properly. They redid the curry with the spicy chillies and it was at our table in no time. Of course, it also helped that we were the only ones left in the restaurant. Everything about this restaurant from food, ambiance to service deserves 5 stars. I can’t wait to go back and try other dishes from their menu!

Went here for the first time tonight for dinner. The place looked nice considering its in small strip plaza. I walked in & saw it was a quaint place decorated for Xmas. The other usual décor was Thai head dance gear along with paintings;traditionally nice. I waited for someone & looked for someone but they were busy serving food so I decided to take the table to my liking. I waited for another 10minutes before the girl finally noticed me. She was very friendly so I decided to stay. They have a an organized flow in a disorderly fashion to their serving & assisting people if that makes sense; but they are Slow! Slow to come slow to cook slow to serve. I ordered 2 appetizers, deep fried squid & lemon prawn soup. The squid was tasty not oily & simply prepared with a dipping sauce, arranged in rows which was cute. The soup was balanced well with salt n sourness. I waited for my chicken & shrimp pad Thai for 30 minutes. It was lacking chicken & shrimp, the portion was decent. The saving grace of this place is the food is very tasty, & friendly service. Oh and of course clean! Im giving the place 3 stars & not more cause of slow service & protein lacking in pad Thai. I think they have a lunch special which I’ll come back & try. Ps the food smells amazing when you walk in.

I’ve been to Bangkok Thai several times now and it never disappoints! Well worth the trek up the 404 if you ever want to venture out of Toronto to have some topnotch Thai food. Portions are generous, very attentive staff, and prices are very reasonable. Seriously, for $ 15 a person can leave the restaurant feeling full and satisfied, not just because of a fantastic meal, but because there’s enough leftovers for the next day! Plus, free parking… I mean, where can you get that in Toronto??? But let’s talk about what really matters here: the food. Absolutely fantastic. You can never go wrong with any of their delicious curries, served with a side of coconut rice. Try the mango salad appetizer to start, as well as their awesome fish cakes(be warned: they are HIGHLY addicting that you will probably have to order another plate). I’m already getting hungry just typing up this review. Will definitely be back for more.

We had the dinner in last Saturday night, which was close to their closing time. We order our food and surprisingly they are hot and fresh. Especially, the Pad Thai is very good and the taste is what I had before in Thailand. You should try and the price is reasonable. The warm and polite welcome greeting with the friendly services.

The drive between Richmond Hill and Newmarket north on Yonge street is rather scarce when it comes to reliable food options that aren’t being served from Drive-thru window. So when my buddy and I were looking for something to grab quick and he recalled his visit to Bangkok Thai, we made quick moves to Yonge and Mulock to visit this spot. To be fair I was going to give this place a fourth star based on price alone, especially given that my buddy and I were able to both eat for around $ 20. I mean you don’t get a soup, spring role and main course for $ 8.95-$ 9.95/person. Anywhere! From a price perspective I felt the prices werecheap, however as Shawn mentioned, the portion sizes were small-ish, so from a value perspective I would have to dock them a star. Standing alone it is good Thai food, not the BEST I’ve ever had but it is still pretty darn good. I had the coconut chicken soup and Pad Thai and I felt both were very good and would likely order them again! The only other star I am removing is based off of aesthetic appeal and location. It’s buried in a plaza, so some would argue this is a hidden gem. In reality I award Bangkok Thai Cuisine 3.5÷5. This is the best local option for Thai around and you’d be remiss to not give it a try. Eatcrest Out!

There is new ownership in place here since I first started coming here, the food is just as good, as the new owner says she hired the cooks of the previous owners. I knocked off one star only because I have noticed the portions are a bit smaller. My last visit I was here after the sign said they were open, but no one was here, just as we gave up a cook showed up, unfortunately she couldn’t take our order because she didn’t speak English, and the person I was assuming was the new owner showed up ten minutes or so later. Other than that the meal was still fantastic.

This is our favourite place to eat Thai food. We love the basil beef and crispy basil chicken… so much that we get it every single time. It’s fresh with delicious flavours and good sized portions. I like getting it not spicy because I find it almost too hot otherwise. I like to be able to really taste those flavours and not be too overwhelmed with the heat. We also love the chicken Thai spring rolls and the fresh spring rolls for appetizers. We often get take-out but the restaurant itself has an authentic atmosphere and very friendly staff. The prices are also quite reasonable. This is definitely a favourite place in my books!
