Almost a hole in the wall.... You don't go for the atmosphere you go for the fantastic authentic Thai food and great service.

Happened to be in White Rock tonight unexpectedly. Googled Thai food/ decided to check it out! Amazing, delicious, authentic, well presented! Our server was very professional & knowledgeable. We had the pineapple red chicken curry... delicious! The chicken pad sew yu was very good as well! We also had the Tom Yum soup; richly seasoned & very fragrant. The next time we're in the area again, we will definitely head over to Leela Thai for another wonderful meal!!

Vegetarian options: There are plenty of vegetarian options.

Dietary restrictions: You can ask for certain items to be left out of your dish such as no baby corn or cashews for example. The staff is very accommodating. They will also bring you separate little dishes of chili oil or extra dried Thai chilies.

Parking: Plenty of free parking but heed the warning signs & do park in the correct spots!!!

Kid-friendliness: Seems to be okay for kids!

Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access and fully accessible washroom.

This was surprisingly Poor. Possibly the worst Pad Thai I’ve ever had. Almost 100% sure the sauce that came with the Veggie Tofu dish came out of a Heinz jar. Will not be ordering from here again.

I love this hidden gem of a Thai restaurant so much! They have many yummy Thai food menu selections. My favorites are the veggie spring rolls, fried rice, and their pad Thai. The restaurant is very clean with a cozy atmosphere, and the service is fast here. Furthermore, I love the one server who wear their traditional Thai wardrobes.

Great food at a reasonable price and quick service! Not sure why other comments state that the portion size is small. We got the Pad Thai and Yellow Curry, both of which tasted fresh and reminded us of our trip to Thailand!

Dietary restrictions: Plenty of pescatarian options. Could probably make them vegetarian without any issues

Portion size small and no rice included. For $14.95 you get a small container of not much food.

Dined here for my mom’s birthday, we’re big fans of Thai food and can confirm it was delicious and surprisingly affordable too! The restaurant is quite small but we were lucky to come in just as large parties were leaving, I can imagine it can get pretty busy otherwise. The workers were very nice, we were served by a super sweet girl who left us cute little notes with our takeaway which I appreciated! Overall great experience, would definitely come back :)

Very bad. We’re locals and dined at Leela Thai when they were at their lovely location on Johnston Road - and so ordered pickup at their new small spot on George last night. The portions are half a large as they should be. Hang Dang Curry was watery with scant chicken or veggies. Vegetable Delight was full of old brown cabbage, carrots and onions - it was gross and went into the garbage. Should have been in their compost instead of serving it to the public. Chicken with Cashew Nuts was also largely inedible. This meal cost $50 for pickup. Waste of money and will never recommend this restaurant or return. This small business needs to up their game. Nice people. Bad food.

First time trying this restaurant. We started with the “Sacks of Gold”. (Crispy wontons) I had the Yum Nao (Beef Salad) & My husband had the chicken Pad Thai. Everything tasted great! Portions are a little on the small side but with the appie it was enough. Came to $41 inc gst for the 3 items which I thought was very reasonable. Would highly recommend.
