| - Decided to come here with my boyfriend after paint night, as it was close by and the reviews are awesome. Got here at about 8 and there was a lineup of people and a length waitlist. I was really craving Thai food, so we agreed to wait and see what the fuss was all about.
We got seated at the bar, after about an hour-long wait. We decided to get some drinks - their specialty sangria and a Thai beer. The sangria was sooooo good! I would have ordered more, but I already had wine earlier and didn't feel like tumbling up/down the stairs on the way out. I ended up getting the Thai iced tea at the end though...couldn't resist.
The menu isn't very extensive, so it didn't take really long to pick our items. We ordered their spring rolls to start, the green chicken curry aka Gaeng kiaw wan (served in a coconut!) and the Khao soi. The spring rolls came out pretty quickly and we gobbled them down really quickly, as we were starving! They were delicious and so was the sauce that came with them.
It took quite a bit of time for our mains to come out though. The place was packed though.. We were hoping our waiter/bartender would have come to see us after taking our orders, but he didn't make it back until after we were done eating our meals. That is the main reason why I'm downgrading this review to 4 stars. The bartenders that were making drinks all night in front of us were amazing. They were not only taking people's orders at the bar, but were pretty much putting on a show for us at the bar. It wasn't anything spectacular like fire, but I was really fascinated by their work.
Sorry, back to the food.. I've never eaten green curry, but was pleasantly surprised. I got it at the foreigner spicy level and had no regrets. It was the perfect amount of spice for me, although my boyfriend found it quite hot. There was a lot of chicken, so I got full pretty quickly. I tried the Khao soi and thought the sauce was delicious. I also really liked those crispy noodles that they give! We finished it with the Thai iced tea and everything was just great.
Overall, the food was pretty good. I wish they had panang curry on their menu (my usual order in Thai restaurants), as I'm sure it would've been incredible. But, I'm glad I tried green curry, because it was delicious. Boyfriend found the Khao soi to be good, but no wow factor. Drinks were awesome. The bartending crew was amazing - super fun to watch and extremely kind. Our waiter was a bit M.I.A unfortunately.. Overall, not sure if I would come all the back here from Thornhill/North York, but it's definitely a great place for everyone to try.
