Whoooo-eeee! Finally found an excellent Thai place that is not tiny and crowded! I came here for a dinner on Saturday. The place has a rustic and warm atmosphere (brick walls, dim lights).
I tried Sasi's Pad Thai Noodles (~$14) which was probably the most authentic Pad Thai I ever tried! It was seafood-flavoured and very fragrant (definitely not your food court ketchupy Pad Thai) and they were generous with chicken and shrimp. However, if you prefer sweeter Pad Thai, Mengrai offers Street Style Pad Thai and House Pad Thai as well. They were also very accommodating with allergies unlike Linda's Modern Thai whose server said "It's a Thai place.. what do you expect?" when I asked them about peanuts.
I also tried their Thai Iced Tea ($3) which was creamy and sweet. I can't say too much about it because it was only my second time trying the drink.
At the end of the dinner, I met the owner, Allan, and he gave us a complimentary dessert - coconut cream cheese and brownie. Brownie points for this exceptional service!
I love this place! I am not a Thai food expert but I really enjoyed my experience here at Mengrai. If you can't fly out to Thailand to try local food, Mengrai is the place you should visit. It is definitely one of the more authentic Thai restaurants in Toronto. Highly recommend this place and I can't wait to come back for more pleasant dining experiences :)
