43 Best Thai Restaurants near Nepean

“Baan Thai is hands down one of the best Thai restaurants I’ve ever been to! From the moment we walked in, the experience was exceptional. The waiter serving us was incredibly kind and patient, which meant so much since we had two young kids with us. They went above and beyond to make us feel welcome.

Now, let’s talk about the food—absolutely incredible! Every bite was bursting with authentic flavors, and it’s clear they use the freshest ingredients. From the classic Pad Thai to their unique variations of traditional dishes, everything we ordered was perfectly cooked and seasoned. It’s rare to find a place that balances authenticity with approachability so well.

The portion sizes were very generous, and the prices were surprisingly reasonable for the quality and quantity of food we received. We left feeling completely satisfied, both in terms of taste and value.

Baan Thai is a gem for anyone craving authentic Thai cuisine. Whether you're looking for comforting classics or something a little different, they have it all and they do it exceptionally well. We’ll definitely be coming back soon!

Kid-friendliness: Their staff is so patient and they have booster seats for kids.“

“Best food ever. Flavourful and fresh. The gentleman that served us was amazing, helpful, polite and provided I side on the food. His wife is the chef. Best Thai food I have had in a very long time.“

“I just went to Pad Thai and ordered the General Tow Pineapple, it was absolutely amazing! I loved it so much I had to go back in and order another one. Amy was incredibly kind and welcoming, and her great energy made the experience even better. You can tell they care about their customers. I’ll definitely be coming back again soon!“

“Great food and friendly service.“

“Ordered the Pad Thai with tofu and my daughter ordered medium, which the employee warned my 10 yr old that it would be spicy( thankyou).. she wanted it..and it is by far the best Thai express I have had in the region.
We just had one open up close toe in Aylmer, and it is too sweet and the tofu is rock hard..it was gross..
This location reaffirmed my love of Thai express...go here it is worth the price(15$)

Vegetarian options: It's Thai, if you don't want meat, don't get it and if you are unsure as to the sauce..ask..they are very friendly and accommodating.“

“Love Thai Express. In my opinion this is the best location for this chain in Ottawa. The owner and staff are very polite and friendly plus the chefs know how to work the wok.

Vegetarian options: Vegeterian and Vegan options

Dietary restrictions: Gluten Free Options

Parking: Large lot in a plaza“

“Liu's is our go-to for Chinese food in town. The open ended eggrolls are delicious! Staff is very courteous and we've never had any issues with taste or temperature of food as we do pick up. Many complaints about food being cold or taking awhile to deliver? But that's not the restaurant's fault; take that up with your delivery service.“

“I've eaten here before and it's always been great. Yesterday, we had the salmon and tuna sashimi the calamari and the seared beef salad. It was all fantastic, but the seared beef salad was absolutely incredible. Our service was also fantastic. Thank you so much!!“

“Excellent food and friendly service. Thanks for making our trip to Ottawa that much more enjoyable!“

“This family run restaurant is a hidden gem. I have tried many Pad Thais and this restaurant has the best Pad Thai I have ever had. This restaurant is most accommodating in helping my son, who has gluten and soy sensitivities, find things he can eat. I wish they were closer to me because I would frequent their establishment much more often. Definitely a place to go. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“Authentic Thai food! Big portions and definitely delicious 😋“

“Good but avoid getting served by jade and another person who lies like a Karen. Should be fired Other than that I the restaurant is good.“

“as close as you can get to authentic“

“My 20yr old (who works in the culinary world) just had Wandee Thai for the first time - his statement re stir fry P1 is "I f'ing loving it!!!! spicing is spot on - the more I eat the hotter it gets!" 😊💓 And he was shocked at how inexpensive it was for the amount you get and the quality👌“

“Everything is fresh and delicious and Su the owner is a delight to talk to and to watch as she cooks. She produces amazing dishes using only 2 woks. We highly recommend ordering from Champa Thai if you are in Ottawa. We only regret that she can't deliver to Sudbury.“

“Very good food, friendly staff. Highly recommend“

“What a treat !!! Blown away !!!
We have been passing their Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday outdoor advertisement for buy 1 get 1 specials.

Tonight, stopped by for take-out. OMG red curry with tofu and vegetables (buy 1 get 1). The curry is DELISH. You need rice to soak up all that curry juice. The tofu was plenty and vegetables were astoundingly fresh. I'd give this place 6 or 7 stars if I could.

We will be regulars !!!

Vegetarian options: They do VEGAN - and so well that non-vegans will be blown away too.“

“I just ordered for Valentine’s Day, for the first time. And I was blown away! For such a little spot in gas station, I didn’t have high expectations but they were blown out of the water! We had a pad Thai and red curry with chicken, red and green peppers, peanuts and green beans, with rice, and spring rolls. -Spring rolls were FRESH and so crispy on the outside. YUM. -Pad Thai was some of the best I’ve had in the city -Curry was delish Could use some fresh lime with the order, otherwise excellent and I will be ordering again. Thank you!“

“Very tasty pad see ew. My first thought was on how light the colour of the sauce was. I was worried it would taste plain. I was very surprised at the level of flavour achieved with such a light sauce. The next test is how does the beef taste. It tasted fresh and delicious on its own. No hiding old flavour with heavy sauce. The veggies were all fresh and delicious.

9/10 - would love to try all there other dishes.

Atmosphere is low as it's in a food court in a run down mall.“

“Love this place. Best Thai I’ve had in Ottawa. I’m a frequent customer.“

“Succulent , frais et Excellent service !“

“One doesn’t expect to go to a music festival and have such wonderful options for healthy food. Thank you Green Papaya. And thank you for being green!“

“In from out of town driving by, I decided to stop in this place is as good as it gets clean. Food is fresh tasty the spring rolls and rice rolls are full and loaded with fresh ingredients. They’re full tasty straightforward. I had the chicken breast, which was non-fatty clean good chicken breast
Will definitely be back when in the Ottawa region
Anybody scoring this place under four stars is either a competitor or a relative of a competitor. Good job. Thank you for the great experience.“

“I really enjoyed the panaeng curry I got and was happy it wasn't a far walk from my office on a freezing cold day. This time was much better than the last time I ordered as the fresh spring rolls I had gotten was not as described in the menu (missing ingredients).“

“Ma nourriture favorite, meilleur resto!! Les plats authentiques sont délicieux 😋 Les caries sont tous excellents et les autres plats aussi ;)“

“Ate at the new Hawkesbury location: Incredible, authentic Thai cuisine. Super great service only surpassed by the amazing food. Had: Chicken Satay, Fresh Spring Rolls, Panang Curry, Green Curry, Pad Thai, and Crispy Tofu, with a Sticky Mango dessert. Perfect for individual or sharing plates. Cannot recommend enough and needed in the area. Will be back - regularly.“

“Absolutely delicious as always! Definitely my favourite Thai restaurant i’ve been to, I find the food is consistently amazing and I always leave stuffed. The interior has been spruced up from the last time I visited and overall great time and meal.“

“Quality of food has gone downhill. General Tao chicken was sour and house fried rice was basically chicken fried rice with 2 shrimp thrown in. Very disappointed.“

“We live in the neighborhood and finally decided to stop in for some food, and boy are we glad we did! This will definitely be our new local takeout spot. The food was so yummy and flavorful, highly recommend the pad Thai and croquettes, and the spring rolls and whatever that sauce that comes with it are delicious!“

“Frequented this vendor for over a decade when I'm in the area. Felt today I needed to share my review to support them. They are always a reliable lunch option for a healthy portion of Thai stir fries and rice dishes for extremely reasonable prices under $14 at today's inflation rates. The beef Pad Kee is my goto with a decent portion of beef slices and broccoli compared to equivalent Thai Expresses. Noodles are saucy and succulent. Give it a try and support this staple local business who had survived through the pandemic to serve up great stirfries.“

“Always a great experience at Saigon Thai. Everything is made fresh, made to order which is why it takes a little more time than other places. I guarantee it's worth the wait! I highly recommend the pad thai, the vermicelli, and the spring rolls! ✨️“

“We loved eating here. My 9-year old loved the pad thai. We ordered green curry -- it was full of flavor. We got squash fritters and they were crazy good. Great spring rolls. But be prepared for some steep prices. About $20 per dish. The place itself is cute and has a good vibe. Once I got over the shock of the price, I ended up really enjoying myself! Very accommodating!“

“I had a positive experience overall. The food was fresh and served promptly, which I appreciated. The service was excellent, and the staff provided helpful recommendations. One suggestion I have would be to consider reducing the amount of salt in the red curry; it would enhance the dish even more. Despite this, I will definitely be returning, as I believe this is Heron Gate’s a hidden gem!“

“Amazing food! I have never had better fish tacos and the staff is super friendly. Thanks again - Chad“

“Best thai express in Ottawa. 'I drop $20 dish here with my Extra options. My fam and I been coming here for 5 years and I will say the service / quality has only gotten better. I regularily order pad thai, stir fry, and pad see eew for myself and my fam. Some places will give you soup instead of noodles because theres too much sauce, but these guys cook the noodles right. They always have their side-sauces available AND with big containers (Why do other locations use small containers? kills me). The rice is always delicious,.. everything is made fast, but not with disrespect. I don't get shrimp because shrimp is weak, so I can't say about shrimp but the beef and chicken is always plentiful.“

“Lemongrass never fails to deliver the best quality Thai food. I’m addicted to their Pineapple Fried Rice and their Wonton Soup. Very tasty and comes in very generous portions. I can say it’s always worth a visit and I always get good value for my money.

I got served by Hongli the last time I visited and she provided a great customer service.

She was very polite and made sure I got served on time and also checked to make sure I was happy. Thanks to Hobgi I will be visiting again next week and will try out their Sweet and Sour Tilapia when I visit.“

“It exceeded my expectations in every way. The combination of delicious food, attentive service, and a welcoming atmosphere makes it a must-visit spot. Whether you're looking for a romantic dinner or a gathering with friends, this restaurant has something for everyone. I will definitely be returning soon!“

“Amazing staff, and delicious food. A++

The service I get from Sheree and Kristina is truly second to none. They know exactly what I want and how I like it. Which I appreciate, very much. They are kind, beautiful humans who deserve so much praise and appreciation. This review barely scratches the surface. I would be an almost everyday customer if it wasn't for these two ladies!“

“Alright, so this place kind of struck me as soon as I walked in by just being wonderfully quiet compared to the street outside. I came in on a really hot, busy weekday, and inside it was just serenely quiet and cool. The tables are awesome, even if it’s maybe a weird thing to fixate on, but they’re these big, solid wood tables with like 2 inch thick quartz granite tops. It was really nice to put your arms on the cool granite on a super hot day. It was just a really nice sensory contrast to the street outside.

Food was awesome.“

“omg! quite atmosphere, very polite server. food is fast and hot... and man is it ever good... 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿“

“My mother and I shared a delicious pad thai chicken with extra beansprouts (spicy), and a pad thai shrimp with extra beansprouts (mild). Fresh and delicious!

Mine was very spicy?I love spice (married to a Latino), but boy was that ?️?

The emoloyee provided me with lime and peanuts. He was pleasant to be around:)“

“Didn’t expect it was that good! The Pad Thai was absolutely fine for my Asian taste buds
The service was quick, the portion was big and I couldn’t finish everything
Chose the medium spicy level, maybe I’ll try the spicier one next time“
