Green Papaya - Preston remains a reliable choice for those seeking a satisfying Thai dining experience. The menu features a variety of authentic Thai dishes, including Satay as an appetizer, and mains such as Panaeng red curry, Pad Thai, and Nuer Takai crispy beef. The food is consistently flavorful, with generous portions that can easily feed three people.
The restaurant is known for its use of fresh, real basil and Thai spices, with a mini garden on-site to ensure the quality of these ingredients. Customers continue to praise the restaurant's ability to deliver delicious, authentic Thai cuisine, with the food described as the "legend tier of Thai in Ottawa." Recent visitors have found the quality and service to be outstanding, though some have noted the effects of “shrinkflation” on portion sizes.
The atmosphere is comfortable and suitable for a range of occasions, from first dates to casual gatherings. The restaurant is accommodating to dietary restrictions, with a variety of vegetarian options and the ability to cater to Celiac customers. Guests appreciate the effort put into maintaining an authentic experience, and many enjoy the free shrimp crackers provided to whet the appetite.
While a few customers have found the food to be just "okay" and the service a bit lacking, the majority of reviews commend the restaurant's consistent quality and value. The building and furnishings may show some signs of wear, but the overall experience is highly recommended, with many already looking forward to returning.
