Reviews for Thai Smile Cuisine in Qualicum Beach, BC

Beautiful restaurant. Delicious Thai foods. We stopped here to have lunch on the way to Cathedral grove. The location is right... off the highway. Easy to find and park. Inside is cozy and colorful, with a bunch of Thai cultural elements. It was fun to lookfor the cities I know on the hanging map of Thailand. We ordered chicken with cashew, one green curry with beef and coconutsoup. They are all pretty good. Full of flavor. Better than the most Thai restaurants i tried in Nanaimo. Only one thing: Nexttime I?ll choose Mild spicy rather than medium. I used medium spicy at Indian restaurants as a reference when I ordered, butobviously I was wrong . Still yummy though. Will definitely go back when we travel down there. Read more

What a lovely restaurant, very friendly, comfy, and super delicious. The ladies recommended what to order and the servings were... exactly what we needed. We are happily full and no leftovers. I?m glad I took their advice and didn?t crazily ordered too much.A very honest and homey place to enjoy authentic Thai dishes. Definitely will come back to this city and this restaurant. Read more

Very tasty! The food was ready quickly, and knocked it out of the park. Delicious spring rolls, and the prawn Pad Thai and the... Panaeng Curry were all fantastic. It's a little out of the way, but well worth the drive! Read more

I would have rated this place so much higher if not for a very unpleasant experience. The chicken satay appetizer came out and... it looked incredible and juicy. The first bites were so great. But half way through my portion I noticed it was partly pink andnot fully cooked! Understandably it can happen, the server was informed about this and we expected to be served a new dish butinstead they just overcooked the satay that was undercooked. So basically now instead of the delicious meal it was chewy anddry... Very disappointing and unsanitary. The rest of the meal was pretty good, but the experience really left me sodissatisfied.

We've had more than a dozen meals here including tonight, the food is consistently good; nice fresh veggies and generous with... the meat in the portions. Drunken noodles, cashew chicken and thai fried rice are our favorites, plus the spring rolls areexcellent. Thanks for the good food and see you again! Read more

I love small town Asian restaurants - some are hit and some are miss, and they always have heart. This restaurant is a HIT.... Hidden gem that no one knows of. Literally the best kept secret on the Island. The owner visited Canada from Thailand and fellin love with Vancouver Island. He brought the family here and they proceeded to run the dopest Thai restaurant in the west. Trythe coconut soup. Read more

An absolute treat. We arrived and felt transported back to southeast Asia by the decor, the smells and the general ambiance. We... ordered spring rolls, pad Thai, drunken noodles and some coconut rice, each of which were amazing in their own way. The onlything that I'd mention is that the portions were such that a side of rice and an appetizer were required in addition to themains for two of us to fill up, but the caliber of the food was absolutely outstanding. We really look forward to eating hereagain, regrettably though we were just passing through on vacation so it will be quite a while before we get to. Read more

Stopped here on the way to Coombs a couple weeks ago and it was so satisfying. My sister and I ordered the Yellow Curry and Pad... Thai lunch specials and a Tom Kha Gai with rice. All was sooo good but the Tom Kha in particular was fabulous. It's rare to comeacross good Thai food on the Island, and we were very pleased. Service was super nice and quick! Would definitely come here allthe time if I lived nearby. Read more
