I ordered the chicken wings with sweet chili sauce and a pad Thai, and overall it was a really satisfying meal. The wings were crispy and juicy. The pad Thai has nicely cooked noodles, and a solid balance of savory and tangy notes. Portions were generous and everything tasted fresh. A comforting, reliable spot for classic Thai dishes—I’d definitely come back to try more items on the menu.

Visited Pai during a trip to Toronto and I was pleasantly surprised. The place was full and super lively, they have a great bar at the front so you can have a drink while you eait to be seated. The atmosphere was lively and friendly in a real Canadian way. And the food was really phenomenal and authentic. The oxtail was so delicious, the rice was fragrant, the salad super fresh. The drinks were amazing, the service was great. Nothing bad to say about this place.

Definitely some of the best Thai food I've had in a very long time! Husband and friend both got the Thai tea and really seem to like it. I tried it but it was fairly too sweet for me. Mango Slaw was absolutely beautiful. It was so perfectly sweet savery and something I would finish up on my own without wanting to share it. But unfortunately your family style haha Pad Thai was hands down some of the best I ever had. It really had some unique flavor to it and was the perfect amount of spicy (we asked for medium). So easy to just finish up a whole bowl of this. No words to say about that Chicken Satay skewers. Most places make the chicken too dry when you get this saute but this was perfect! Actually juicy pieces of chicken and I have no idea how they do it. Outside of the usual peanut sauce there was also some other transparent liquid there and it was so even plain LOL. Pad Gra Pow - My first time trying this and it was quite a delight. Rice was quite fresh and a really good amount of meat which was appreciated. Went perfectly well together with that egg on top. The place itself has quite a nice aesthetic and we had almost a 40 minute wait time so I would recommend going early.

We have gone to Pai numerous times now. Anytime we are in the area we come here its our favorite resturant in Toronto! The food is so flavorful and fresh. If you love Thai food there isn't a bad dish on the menu. The staff are always so friendly and no matter how busy it is (and its always busy because the food is just that good!) we have never waited more then 30 minutes for a table and its definitely worth the wait. Can't wait to go back!

This place is always bustling with people, giving off the vibes of a weekend night in Pai. The staff are energetic and incredibly friendly. Despite being packed with customers, the food came out really fast. Hands down the best Thai restaurant outside of Thailand. My recommendation is to start with the Garlic Tofu and Mango Slaw. The Khao Soi is a must, bursting with flavor. We tried it with braised beef this time, and it was cooked to perfection: super tender and rich. My go-to entrée is the Khao Pla Tawt (golden fried fish). It’s crispy on the outside, while the meat is tender enough to fall apart easily, pairing perfectly with their homemade green curry. There are plenty of drink options. I’m on the sweeter side and love both their red and white sangria. Can’t wait to come back!

Came here for a work dinner and had a fantastic time. The restaurant was really great at making accomodations for the different dietary needs, and the food came out quickly, hot and really generous portions. We had so many leftovers but they were all delicious. The curries have so much depth of flavour, definitely recommended for others to try. Just make sure you get there early or making reservations if you can, or book the private area, it gets busy!

Loved the vibe and loved the food! We came by on a Saturday night around 5:30PM and only waited 10 min for a table. The main dining area is very cramped and loud, but luckily we were seated in the "market" area which was nicer and calmer. The "same same" area looked inviting too. Our server EJ was amazing from beginning to end. He was super attentive, kind and had a great sense of humour. The cocktails were delicious!! We ordered the bengal leaf wrap appetizer which was presented beautifully and super fresh. We also shared the pad see ew and oxtail in tomato broth with rice. Everything was incredible. Food came quickly even though the restaurant was busy. We were celebrating a belated birthday and EJ brought a complimentary mango ice cream! It was a great dining experience!

There was a short wait when I visited. I had high expectations since it’s a Michelin restaurant. The food was good, but I didn’t really feel there was anything special compared to regular restaurants. The Pad Thai was tasty, as it’s one of their signature dishes. The curry was surprisingly delicious — I didn’t expect it to be that good. We were three people and shared three dishes, which was just the right amount of food. However, I didn’t feel very comfortable when the staff directly asked us to leave the table right after we finished eating since there were people waiting.

I would give 5 stars if they make a better Mango sticky rice. I ordered Thai milk tea, papaya salad, khao san. Thai milk tea is so goood, 1000/10, strong tea and sweet enough. Papaya salad 1000/10, strong flavor, good combination with all topping, authentic taste. Khao san 10/10, I wish they have a fresh coconut cream for this dish as it still tastes a canned coconut cream, but it makes sense as we do not have a fresh coconut here. Mango sticky rice, I am so sorry but I think it can be much better, the coconut cream is tasteless, mango is not sweet (I can understand for the mango, but for the coconut cream, it makes me feel disappointed, especially for a place with a Michelin star.

Omg! My wife recommended this place and Wow! It did not disappoint. We got everything we ordered within 12 minutes (not exaggerating, except for dessert because it came later of course). It felt like we had a different staff member each time checking in on us. The food was delicious, my favourite was the garlic tofu crispy on the outside & chewy on the inside. The desert Thai tea sorbet so delicious in itself but the coconut puces were the cherry on top. Perfect for a date or for groups. Will be back next time we’re in town. Thank you to the whole staff & happy holidays!!
