Pookie’s Thai - Ottawa, Ontario

Excellent little spot for Thai food. Was recommended to try it by a friend and was not disappointed. The pad thai was great and very flavorful. Could've used a bit more bean sprouts for my liking but otherwise it was really good. The spice level was perfect too. I choose a ... 3, and was not disappointed with the level of heat. Would definitely order from here again. Read more

For Stittsville dwellers, keep your eyes open for Pookie’s food truck on Main!!! ... You won’t be disappointed! Read more

SOOOOOO disappointed! The portion of the dishes were TINY. The curry was almost $19 after tax and the noodles were $17 after tax. The curry was appetizer size and the beef was dry. The curry itself was very tasty but definitely not worth $19. 😭😭 I was still hungry after eating ... this and had to get more takeout. The pad thai didn't have any bean sprout and was only half the container. It barely had any sauce and was very mushy. The flavor was also too sour. The pad kee mao didn't have any flavour and was also only half a container. I was debating on whether to give 1 star or 2 because the curry was tasty that said it really didn't fill me up at all.

This is THE best Thai restaurant in Ottawa. Pookie is one of the kindest, sweetest, beautiful-est souls I've ever met. The food is absolutely incredible and she makes you feel like you're a part of her family when she's serving you. I cannot say enough good things about this place. ... One of those restaurant experiences that stick with you forever. I cannot wait to be back and tell everyone and anyone to make a visit to Pookie's. Read more

The best Thai food I’ve ever had! Food is fresh, full of flavour and high quality! Highly recommend this restaurant. It is truly a hidden gem in Ottawa that I was lucky to stumble on during a recent business trip. The owners are a couple. The wife cooks ... and everything is made from scratch. She was a chef in Thailand which definitely comes through from her food. I wish this was closer to home as I would be a regular! Read more
