What can I even say, this is the best Thai food I've ever had! I recently came here while I was on a work trip to Vancouver, and I ended up coming back the next night (which was also my birthday - that's how good this place was). I had the red Thai curry, the pad Thai, spring rolls and tofu wedges with peanut sauce. ALL INCREDIBLE. The tofu was maybe the best I've ever had, super soft and fresh on the inside, but super crispy and pillowy on the outside! I spent...

The fish cakes were delicious. I was very disappointed in the yellow curry! The menu said mild, but it was so hot with cayenne I could barely eat it and could not taste the usual flavour of a Thai Yellow curry. I have had Thai Yellow Curry many times in the past. The heat is usually very gentle I suspect the Chef is not a Thai food specialist.

It will always continue to be one of my most favourite and authentic Thai restaurants in Vancouver, this branch in particular has the most friendly staff and I continuously come back for over a 7 years now. Thank you guys!
