  • Thai Square first opened its doors in this sleepy West Rouge plaza a few years ago and I thought, "yay, finally...there is a Thai place nearby!" I've eaten in the restaurant, ordered delivery and take-outs numerous times so I can safely say that my review is based on handful of dining experiences. When I first tried Thai Square, the owners were Chinese so naturally, their dishes had some distinctively non-Thai influence. I tend to judge Thai restaurants by their pad thai, green curries and beef salad and let's just say, all three dishes were lacking in real Thai flavours like galangal, lime leaves, tamarind paste, toasted rice powder... to name a few. But all in all, as a neighborhood Thai-style restaurant, this place was fine. Fast forward a year or so, what was once an acceptable Thai imitation fare has undergone drastic change to something less than desirable. I'm sure the ownership must have changed hands but the cashier profusely denies this (to what end, I do not know). I had some people coming over so we ordered take-out consisting of Chicken green curry, basil chicken, thai fried rice, pad see ew, mango salad and beef salad. Since our order came to more than $35, I had a choice of receiving a complimentary samosas, spring rolls or pad thai. I opted to receive free pad thai. Every dish was on the sweet side which was a BIG minus for me but the Thai style fried rice and the basil chicken were still edible. The mango salad and the beef salad were also acceptably "Thai" tasting. However, the Pad See Ew and the complimentary Pad Thai were a sorry excuse for a fried noodle dish, lacking in ingredients (nothing but dried chicken pieces and tiny Chinese broccoli pieces in a mound of over-fried thick rice noodles) and flavour. I would have to say that this was the worst tasting Pad Thai I've ever had in my entire life. Between too-sweet green curry and over-fried noodle dishes, I may just have to give up on Thai Square all together now. Sometimes it's just not worth while to suffer the mediocre imitation fare just because it happens to be nearby and convenient.
