"Have come here several times over the years, but the food is not the same anymore now that Chef Nuit is not there, and now that Chef Nuit and Jeff do not have a stake in the restaurant anymore! \n\nFurther, not taking reservations anymore makes for very long waits! \n\nWe find that they cannot accommodate large groups very well-- at our last visit, the hostess was quite rude in refusing to seat us, despite the fact that 6 people out of our 8 person party were present. Which is, of course her call, as it is their policy to not seat parties unless the full party is there; however she was very rude and combative about this, considering that we had been waiting an hour for a table. \n\nWe informed her that the 2 remaining people in our party would be arriving very shortly. The table had already been set for 8 and could easily accommodate that many. \n\nShe chose to remove 2 place settings and very rudely told us that we could eat as 6, and that when the remaining 2 people got there, they would have to sit separately. Or that we could wait another hour for all 8 of us to eat together. We chose to leave instead, and we will not be going back. \n\nThe fact is that when it comes to Thai in Toronto, Khao San is a has-been. Currently, SukhoThai is much better, and so is Pai (Pai is right down the street, and we have found the food there is what Khao San used to be). They also have a nice little waiting area in which you can sit and have drinks while waiting for a table or for your friends to arrive, instead of waiting out on the street in the rain or snow!"^^ . .
