Meilleur pad thaï! Tout est savoureux omg. Les won ton frit aussi la sauce est délicieuse. Je seconde un autre commentaire qui mentionne que certains plats devraient contenir des nouilles de riz plutôt que des udons.

This is a great place to pop in for lunch. The service is fast, the portions are generous & the food is really good. I had the fried chicken (first item on the speciality menu) & it was deicious. The batter was light & crunchy with a super good mayo & a bit of a sweet sauce on a bed of jasmin rice. The rice perfectly soaks up the sauce & filla you up if you have a big aperite. The side sallad is waterver tbh, there is sweet dressing & its not bad same for the cucumber more for the esthtics.
I would def go here for a laid back casual fast lunch. They also have some shirts & totebags.

Quelle belle expérience, wow! J'ai commandé pour emporter deux plats principaux & toutes les entrées sur le menu. La salade de mangues est fabuleuse. Les raviolis m'ont vraiment surpris par les saveurs de citronnelle. J'ai littéralement bu la sauce du poulet satay & celle du curry au poulet. J'ai hâte d'essayer les autres plats au menu. C'est épicé à souhait, j'ai adoré.

Mon restaurant préféré du quartier . Portion généreuse & prix adéquats. Tout ce que j'ai commandé sur le menu à date j'ai été épatée par les goûts savoureux & variés qu'on peut y retrouver . J'ai un faible pour leur sauce à l'arachide & leur riz frit. Je recommande x 1000 .
Les employés sont super fins & attentionnés.

What a great, tasty, authentic, warm & cozy meal! The mango salad was a fun surprise. The Kuai soup has great depth of flavour, acidity & sweetness with citronella aromas. Service was friendly & fast. Whether you come for a quick take out or to sit down, it is worth your time & money. Speaking of money: it's all super fairly priced. Portions are large & you don't have to beg for hot sauces: they are all laid out at the counter, personalize the spice to your taste level.

Un peu déçu de la nourriture. Peu authentique & prix légèrement exagéré pour un fast food.
Nous avons pris des pad thai & udon aux arachides. Les sauces étaient correctes par contre les légumes & crevettes n'avaient aucun goût.

L'ambiance & service étaient sympa.
