Tom Yum soup is a personal favorite, distinguished by its noticeable and delicious fresh herbs, lemon leaves, and spices.

By far one of the best restaurants I know. The Tom Yum soup is awesome.

I am updating this. We now have several neighbours in Ottawa who stop here and bring back multiple soups for each other. Even some serious foodies here love the Tom Yum!

I have heard that there is no more eat in (unsubstantiated). That is unfortunate.

Google listing said it was available for dine jn but it was takeout only. There were no seats for us to wait while our order was prepared. The food was very authentic and the portion sizes were good.

Awesome pad Thai, the best pad Thai I have have ever had, years of consistency.

Pat's Restaurant is my favourite Thai / Cambodian place in Kingston. They only offer take out, but it's so good. I especially love the yellow curry chicken with eggplant and sweet potato. You should also try the Cambodian spring rolls. So delicious!!

I've been to Pat's before but I preferred Royal Angkor when they were open. I tried the dishes I used to get at Royal Angkor at Pat's. The Siam Delight is slightly different (probably less sweet) but still as good. I didn't enjoy the Golden chicken as much. There was either too much white meat or it was a little on the tough and chewy side. The sauce was also not as spicy as Royal Angkor. The owner/staff has always been friendly. The atmosphere is hard to judge as it's take-out only now and I assume has been so since the pandemic. This restaurant is not accessible but the staff seem friendly enough that they would bring it out to you if you have accessibility needs.

I first discovered Pat's when they were located on Division and Elliott St some 12+ years ago.

I have always ordered the same appetizer and dish; Cambodian spring rolls and the #6 Golden Chicken.

The rolls are small but hearty and come with fresh cucumber, carrot, and what I believe is nuoc mam, the sauce for dipping.

The Golden Chicken dish is intensely aromatic and the combination of spices/ingredients mend together beautifully.

The mild sweetness followed by a bold sour/spicy flavor and zing of lemongrass, of the "dry" curry, covers the generous portion of tender chicken thighs. The freshly blanched/steamed green beans, roasted peanuts and cucumber elevate the texture of this dish. For an extra kick in spice there are a couple deseeded green chilies that can be discarded if desired.

This dish comes with a big portion of steamed rice and is inside the container with the chicken. They include napkins, plastic utensils and fortune cookies in their take out bag. They have packets of hot sauce available that you can request when ordering.

This dish has always been consistent in flavor, taste, and portion size. I can't speak of the other dishes on their menu because I only order this.

I enjoy this take away at least a couple times a month and what I really enjoy is that I get two meals out of it, it's actually even yummier the next day!

Take out only.

The Cambodian spring rolls are filled with mostly meat, and it was well stuffed. Good crunch. The dip doesn't add much flavour.

Their pad thai was pretty good.

Tried their special menu item for light green chili curry with chicken and pineapple, and it looks a little daunting but the flavour was great. It had 6 decent sized chicken fillet pieces that were tender and moist. It was definitely not spicy despite having many pieces of green chili in the curry. Overall, it's a good dish to try.

This is hands down my favourite Thai place! It always tastes so fresh and homemade! My favourites are the vegetarian pad Thai (in photo), and chicken satay. It’s always prepared quickly for pickup and taste is 10/10. I’ve tried many places being from Toronto, and nothing compares to pats.

Vegetarian options: Many vegetarian options here, like veggie pad thai or tofu dishes

This place is SO GOOD. I have had such a hard week and I went here on my way out of town to grab a treat for dinner. This really cheered me up. The food is so fresh and flavourful - amazing value. They are also so friendly.

Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian and vegan options.
