| - Tons of reviews, and the majority really hit the nail on the head. Khao San Road is absolutely my favourite Thai restaurant in Toronto. You're not going to get over-buttered, over-sauced, over-sweetened dishes. To be honest, just thinking about the food makes my mouth water and it's 9:53 am!
The only thing that more fussy customers would have an issue with is the ever-present line-up. But, with incredible, SUPER affordable food - there's going to be demand. And for the demand, it's a small space. Bottom line is that it's worth the wait.
The service and staff are awesome; casual, friendly, not completely in-your-face and have great energy.
FOOD FEEDBACK:
I've had the Pad Thai (Sam Roas) - which in my opinion is THE best pad thai I've had in the city. Just perfect. The Khao Soi (beef), Gaeng Kaew Wan and so far anything I've had off the menu is KICK ASS delicious. The spicy-meter is bang on and gives a kick with awesome flavour.
For appies, I've tried the Tao hoo Taud Samoon Prai (fried tofu), Gai Taud Samoon Prai (fried chicken nuggets - to die for), Khao greup goong (shrimp chips) - totally not a fan of these, but my friends love 'em, Po Pia Pak Sod Gai Yaw (YUM-MY!), Gra Bong (i like).
You won't regret giving this place a shot. Guaranteed.
