The ambiance is lovely, suitable for dates. The queue gets pretty long though, so do make your reservations so you wouldnt be disappointed. Food-wise, try the lamp Shanks!

The best Thai restaurant that I've ever been to. The food is delicious and presented well. Our waiter was super friendly and checked in on us regularly. The place has a modern decor, and the lights in the middle can even become a show. Just make sure you come early or make reservations because it fills up quick.

Food was absolutely delicious. We had the Pad Kee Mao, Isaan Papaya Salad, Fish Panang Curry & Calamari (not pictured).Everything tasted fresh, service was attentive and warm. Definitely would recommend & would love to come back if ever we’re back in the Markham area.

Happy to have another Thai restaurant in the Richmond Hill/Markham area and a good one at that.The lamb leg shank was tender and the sauce was so flavourful, first bite and we were quite happy. This was our favourite dish. 10/10We also ordered the appetizer plate for 2. Beautifully presented, very Thai. One of each except for the calamares which was 4 pcs. More than enough for 2. Happy we ordered it. 10/10The pad Thai, unfortunately was so so. We ordered the soft shell crab, the crab itself was good but the noodles weren’t excellent. I’d rate it 7/10. I’ve tasted more than a hundred pad thais in my life from different places so I can say it with certainty. Noodles were too sticky, it lacked the usual pad Thai flavour punch. Not bad, not fantastic, just OK, but next time, I will order the pad Kee Mao or Pad see ew. Those looked good.We ordered the 2 desserts: sticky rice with mango - it had the purple rice and white rice, crispy soy (?). Not bad, not out of this world but good enough. 8/10. Presentation was 10/10 though.i will probably get something else when I return.We also had the deep fried banana with coconut ice cream. That was quite good. I don’t usually like super oily stuff but this was pretty good. 10/10Beautifully interior designed place. Looks like the Thai restaurants around town are levelling up and this one is no exception. It’s always a pleasure eating in a place that cares about the ambience and atmosphere. It’s themed, tropical, modern, casual and fun, all in one. The chairs are also very tropical yet elegant.Service was top notch. 15/10 if I could do this. There was a mistake in serving the pad Thai but it was quickly rectified. Our server was professional, friendly and absolutely the best. Actually, all of them were great. The one heading the training of the servers in Isaan Der should train servers in other restaurants!Vegetarian options: There are vegetarian options in most of the dishes. Even desserts!

Definitely a spot I frequent for a cozy, authentic bite. There's a sports bars area in the front and a well lit dining area with a cute as hell interior. I appreciate the genuine marble and velvet decor, and care to the washrooms. Every visit is clean and food is top notch. Don't shy from their pineapple fried rice - the spicy version really brings the heat! I always recommend dining in here and is always worth the visit.

Service is excellent ! Great variety of Thai food and taste great and portion is OK.Presentation of food is creative. We went on Sat and was very busy during dinner. Reservation is a Must !acoustic is average and it is very loud , so it may not be the restaurant if you seeking for a quiet place to dine.

Decided to check this place out as it was near by and had tons of great reviews online. We ordered the appetizer platter, chicken pad Thai, and cashew chicken. The app platter was good, we got to try a variety of different apps available. The chicken pad Thai was so bland and lacked any real flavour. The cashew chicken tasted like the fried chicken you'd get from those food court fast food chains. Overall, the food was very mediocre. One thing to note is that the try to make the restaurant trendy, and all the waitresses dressed like they are working at a club.. one of them had their bottom showing. Not very family appropriate.

Tasty food, efficient services, relatively competitive prices, they don't take reservations in the weekend so you may need to wait for table.
