Golden Thai - Toronto, Ontario

Always wanted to try this place out as I’ve walked by many times over the years. Food was wonderful and done very authentic. I’ve been to Thailand before and can contest to that. Price is great and service is fast and good. Food is served in kinda of a tapa ... style so sharing is encouraged. Read more

The interiors of this restaurant seemed ancient, dull, drab and almost musty. So it was with some trepidation we sat down for dinner at this place as part of a celebration. The crowd inside however indicated to us that this must be a good place despite its looks. And we were ... not disappointed. They seemed to be a bit short staffed as we were attended to a tad late. But after the server approached us, it was all good going forward. Got some good Sapporo beer to whet our thirst. The appetizers were great and the entree selection good. The biggest kicker of them all was the portion size. Each dish could easily be shared by 2 people, unless you had a gargantuan appetite. The food was well prepared, well presented and tickled the taste bud. But in terms of its spice level, this place was not "truly authentic Thai". Clearly the spice levels were diluted to cater to the Canadian palate. If you want the authentic taste of spicy Thai food, please do ask for the hot sauce which they give you in good quantity. Adding the sauce to the food made a world of difference to spice lovers like us. All in all a great place to eat in.......now if only they redid the interiors Read more

Great restaurant with amazing service, and for us personally, amazing vegetarian choice dishes. We ordered their Vegetarian Course for 2, and we were even able to swap out some dishes for ones we liked from the menu (Grilled Eggplant was amazing). Parking, you are better off parking at 209 Victoria Street, ... which is a 5 min walk to the restaurant and the weekend cost was $8 for about 5-6 hours. Read more

The hostess was very nice and helpful. The waiters seemed too in a hurry(even the place was not very busy) and they were too uptight. We had chicken pad thai which wasn’t great. Not much veggies, not much chicken. The sauce used was not much of a pad thai ... taste, was more of sweet and sour! I had pad thai before and this wasn’t a good one! Read more

Really affordable food, but the service was lacking. The highlight was definitely the Tom Yam Goong soup, be sure to order it if you like sweet-spicy flavours. The rest of the food was above average. The only dish I didn't enjoy was the beef curry, which I found to be ... too runny and salty. Read more
