| - We were curious about this new place and went in for lunch. The décor is really relevant and charming, comprised of cool and interesting Thai foodstuffs and products: A comfy place to eat in with nice ambience. The service was polite and quick. We ordered the pad se-ew and pad Thai. The dish presentation was better than most other places in the 'hood; creative and well thought out but not overly funky or over the top. The pad Thai comes inside a thin egg crepe with the sprouts on the side; You can mix everything up (like I did), or put every bite together with your perfect amount of egg and veg. The food was absolutely awesome. Really great flavours and not oily which I really liked. The only knock for us was that we felt the portion size was small for the price, especially so for the pad se-ew. You'll be fine if you order an app with dinner, but if you are quite hungry and ordered what we did (for 2 people) and want to be good and full, you may be left a little hungry. Of course this knock is subjective, but if you are a fan of the portion size at a place like The Queen Mother with their noodle dishes, you may be disappointed. Quality over quantity isn't a huge minus here though, because the food is just so darn good.
Overall, I highly recommend it. I think it may be the best Thai food I've had in Toronto.
The quality of the food is outstandingly and refreshingly superb. Personally I'm going to order the more affordable lunch special to offset portion size woes, but I'll certainly be going back. Again, portion size is subjective and I happen to be a large human being.
Edit: Went for the pad Thai lunch special and was again blown away by the quality, and the portion size was good.
