  • This review is more like a 3.5 for me. Mengrai came highly recommended by a friend of mine. It's a cute Thai restaurant located on Richmond just east of Sherbourne. If you happen to be walking here from the core, I would recommend coming east on King instead of Richmond as I find I don't feel the safest walking alone on Richmond East, especially when it's dark outside. Ambience - 4/5. It was nice inside. I would describe it as cozy and there were some unique decor items. Overall, I was comfortable. Appetizers (chicken satay, spring rolls, mango salad) - 3/5. I thought these were okay, nothing special. My dining companions enjoyed them more than I did, especially the spring rolls. Original pad thai - 4/5. This was a solid pad thai. It was tasty, not too oily, and I would order it again. Cashew chicken - 3/5. This was nice, but nothing special. I probably wouldn't order it again unless you have particular love for cashew chicken. Elegant Curry with beef - 4/5 (according to my companions). My dining companions said this was the best part of the meal for them. I disagree only because the spice factor was too high for me (I have a low spice tolerance). I would give it a 3/5, but if you can handle spicier food, then I would recommend this dish. Dessert - 4.5/5. My favourite part of the meal! I got the mango sticky rice with a side of coconut ice cream. The sticky rice was yummy, and the ice cream had some real pieces of coconut in it which was a pleasant surprise. I would recommend this dessert. BF got the pineapple cheesecake which was good. I felt like it was a denser and heavier cheesecake than average, but it still tasted good. My friend really liked his coconut sticky rice. Service - 5/5. Plates were cleared quickly, water was always topped up, and our server was attentive. The owner came by and made sure we were doing okay. The chef even came out at the end of our meal to be introduced. At the end of our meal, my dining companions each had an after dinner drink (a sherry and an americano), but I chose to stick with water. This seemed to prompt the owner to come by with a complimentary cup of tea (Youthberry white from Teavana) for me which was a nice gesture. Overall, I would recommend checking out this place if you're looking to try a Thai restaurant that is different from your usual.
