Thai Express - Vancouver, British Columbia

My wife, mother-in-law, and myself ate there today. We ordered food that was supposed to be medium spicy but all the meals were very very spicy. We can handle spicy food but it was too spicy today. I mentioned it to the staff but they looked at me like i was ... stupid and said that Thai medium spicy is really spicy. That is complete rubbish, I told them that we normally eat Thai (which we do) but they just looked at me with glum faces. Read more

It's food court food. It tasted pretty ok, but it wasn't Thai. More like fast food Americanized Chinese food. Hot and spicy are the good points. I ordered the mango but couldn't taste mango at all. Staff were ok.

Went for an early lunch at 11:45. I ordered the Beef Pad See Ew Combo with Vegetable Spring Roll and Pandan Thai Iced Tea and barely had to wait to receive my food. The vegetable spring roll tasted standard; your run of the mill mass produced spring rolls. The Pandan Thai ... Iced Tea I can do without, if you do order it, ask for less ice. The Pad See Ew at first glance does not look filling but once you've finished you will be stuffed! The protein options they provide are quite thin and scarce. You'll find veggie at each bite along with heavy sauces. If you are comfortable eating strongly flavored and seasoned Rice Noodles, then this dish is for you! Read more

I was treated to a $10 gift card when spending 20 bucks or more so opted for a Friday Thai Express which admittingly is pretty yummy compared to other fast food takeout or mall options from my experience. I normally always have a go to of their Pad See Ew ผัดซีอิ๊ว, ... but this time opted foe the Basil Shrimp on Cauliflower Rice and a Shrimp Thai my Salad which I was pleasantly surprised at the diversity of vegan and gluten free options added to their menu. The flavor was OK at first, but then extremely sweet and both dishes were a huge mop job, a lot of excess oil which didn't taste good and didn't leave my stomach feeling too great. The Cauliflower Rice was also badly undercooked and extremely overly crunchy. Even with the offer, I felt ripped off and didn't feel the value for money here. I'm pretty disappointed and will most likely avoid in the near future. Read more

Disappointed! I ordered the feature item Thairacha (spicy pad-sew) and what I got is the thairacha with rice, totally not what I expected. One staff said they will changes it back but there will be price difference, I’m totally fine with that. Another staff came and told me they sold out ... of the thairacha sauce and because I already ordered ?!?! Well…. I never seen any kind of customer services like this before in Canada. And now I’m eating the order that I don’t like because the staff mean they don’t wanna to take responsible for it… Read more
