Reviews for Thai Express Restaurant Toronto in Toronto, ON
I see some bad reviews here and was shocked. This is my daughter's favourite lunch place - close to her school - quick and... convenient. She's a fan of cashew chicken stir fry. I gave it a go earlier this week. Delightful. So tasty. The chicken wasgood, ample cashews, sauce permeated into the rice below, lots of tasty perfectly cooked peppers. Couldn't finish mine - hugeportions! You didn't ask, but I'm going to tell you: I sat nearby and watched from afar on a busy Wednesday afternoon. Thelunch hour had kicked off and it was packed ... everywhere. The wait time in the line was typical. Orders went in at a decentrate and people seemed to understand where to wait for their pick up and enjoy watching their lunch being made. From my perfectseat, I was able to witness the two men preparing all food. They were in sync, clarified orders, checked with customers ontheir level of spices and what I admired the most was the smiles between them and customers. It couldn't have been coolworking in that fast pace environment back there serving food over a hot surface, to some customers that perhaps had a busymorning and short on patience and were hangry. These two men remained happy to be serving. During this 'lunch & a show', Iwitnessed a lunch goer dropped her container of lunch in front of their restaurant. While she attempted to do her best to cleanup her lunch from the floor, staff from Thai Express were quick to get out there and clean it up. Not even convinced it wastheir food but they were quick to the rescue. Well done, Thai Express. 5/5! You continue to feed my little girl and I'll bethere to admire from afar the occasional Wednesday!

I literally just walked the branch in CF Eaton to purchase basil Thai rice with extra beef. My order was as bland as it goes,... the shrimp was not cooked as you can taste the rawness and the rice had no salt at all, requested for extra pepper, none. Firsttime I had such order I wrote it off as a late walk in but today, it?s hardly past lunch time and it was exactly horrible taste. Read more
Sad I didn't get a green container but a white styrofoam one. Thai express is a favourite but this time, the pad Thai was bland.
I loved the food and the green container is so cute. I visited twice- had the pad thai & thai fried rice and both were... delicious. The cute container looks small but actually fills up nice; it?s a good portion. If you?re eating it immediately,beware that it may be hot! I wanted to try the pandan iced tea but unfortunately both times I went it was unavailable. Read more
Tried basil fried rice with battered chicken. It was little bit flavourful. Just ok It was really oily though. So much oil No... free parking Friendly staff Read more
Definitely not bad. I'm not usually a huge fan of these quick meals. I was taking a chance as I heard the gas powered whooshing... as soon as I got to the food court. This intrigued me. As for the 1 star reviews, my chicken pad see ew was just the righttaste, the rice noodles were chewy and not soft, and you can taste the power of the wok (that charcoal BBQ style you only getwhen the wok is strong enough and the cook works it just right). Portion was large and the balance of protein was there. Iwould've liked a bit more greens though. I was able to have the older gentleman behind the wok, he seemed to have moreexperience in the heat. I think the consistency is hard to manage given the time of day and how long the cook had been in thesearing heat. My arm would fall off if I had to do that so give them credit. Overall satisfaction for a quick hot meal. Read more
I've ordered a beef pad see-ew: $11.88 + tax:$13.42, Customer service sucks! Management needs to step up by hiring staff that... are trained to provide the best customer service. Across all the thai express locations so far no bad experiences with theirfood. The meat portion size is insufficient, it's a shame for business when it comes down to customer service. Food quality,leaving with a bad experience won't make the business successful. Businesses need to step up their game in order to be on topespecially in the food industry. If you are craving for thai food this is the place. Read more
I have gone to many thai express restaurants and have enjoyed many tofu pad thais. This location is the worst place to get pad... thai. I was presented with bright red/orange noodles that had zero flavor. It was essentially rice noodles covered in oil. Itcost 15 dollars after tax. I will never go to this location again. I wish I read the reviews before ordering from here. Itlooks like the owner has read and left messages for all the reviews. So many reviews say that the food is bland. Yet the ownercontinues to allow such bad food to be served. Read more
