245 Edinburgh Rd S, Guelph, ON N1G 2J6, Canada
Food was not good. It lacked taste. Ingredients were not fresh. Soup tasted funny. Shrimp was slightly chewy. Price was expensive for the quality of food.
Nice small Thai restaurant that does takeout only. Call, order and enjoy. The curries were great, the shrimp chips were great, shrimp rolls were fantastic and the mango with coconut sticky rice is a must. The website doesn't have prices so make sure to ask.
Had take out with a moderately good experience. My partner liked the pad thai she ordered although I found the basil stir fry a bit lack luster. Overall the food was fine but did not stand out in Guelph's vibrant restaurant scene, especially for the price.
We enjoy Thai food and for years I've been wanting to try this place but hadn't had the chance. On Friday evening we found ourselves hungry and with a bit of time to kill, so the perfect time to try it out. I checked to confirm they were open. Their website doesn't list their hours but Google says they're open until 8:30 on Fridays. We drove over, arrived at 7:40 and a sign on the door confirmed that they're open until 8:30. Unfortunately we were met at the door by a woman who wasn't very polite about it. "Pick up only!" she blurted, then asked if we were there for pick up. We weren't, so she repeated "Pickup only" and closed the door on us. And that's the beginning and end of our experience at Lemongrass. We won't try them again.
Disappointing. Small portions and poor ingredients for the price. Especially the noodles ...which were oddly chopped into 0.5cm to 4 cm pieces. Beef pieces tiny too. For 18 dollars I'd go to Ben tahn or Thai Express.
Amazing customer service on the phone and when I showed up. Brought food out to my car. Amazing taste very authentic with lots of spices and flavours. 10/10 my new Thai post in Guelph. Loved the little notes on my food aswell “ tiny spicy” lol
Not happy at all! See photos. Not worth the price paid but also don’t like to waste food, so I begrudgingly tried to finish it because I paid cash.
Delicious coconut soup combined with a very tasty eggplant dish made for a very enjoyable evening. The calamari we started with was cooked perfectly and the soup, while a little spicy, had a nice heat to it and wasn't overwhelming. The eggplant dish was cooked well and seasoned perfectly to go with the warm jasmine rice.
Found the food to be mediocre - wouldn t want to go back to try it again. I also found it to be expensive for the amount of food you get (I ve been to other Thai restaurants that give you a lot more food. It was also quite odd that you couldn t go in the restaurant to pick up your order. The first time I called, there was no answer and I was left standing in the cold. Only upon the second call did someone bring the food out.
Wanted to try a different Thai place, so we wanted to order takeout from Lemon Grass. Not only do they not provide prices on their website, but the person who took the order over the phone didnt even want to tell us our total cost until we pressed about it. It was way more than we ever expected to spend (2 noodle entrees and 2 drinks was $65 total), but we wanted to give them a chance. No wonder they hide their prices. Ordering from here was a mistake. The food was bland, the vegetables tasted incredibly watery (perhaps previously frozen, or just low quality), the takeout containers they use were very cheap and small, so the amount of food you get is very small, and the drinks which were also overpriced, were in tiny cups. Skip this restaurant, go somewhere better.
Awful food dry and tasteless. I threw it away
Best Pad Thai in Guelph (IMO), their spring rolls are super tasty as well! My go-to for sure whenever I m craving a good Pad Thai
Always excellent service!
I had the tofu green curry, tofu Tom yum soup and ginger tofu. It was all really terrible. Very watery and the all the veggies and tofu were chopped up smaller than you would feed a toddler. If you add up all the tiny bits, it was really a small amount of anything. Im very confused. Especially since it costs more than many other thai places. Red Papayas green curry is infinitely better, try that instead .Pros: friendly staff.
Wow, really great food! Tried 5 dishes and each was flavourful. Best Pad Thai in the city.
Ordered chicken pad thai. Very thin on the chicken...not alot of flavor. Was ready quick and was hot. Also had rice rap rolls beef and shrimp very thin on the meat. Not my first choice for Thai
Lemongrass is the absolute best! It s our go-to takeout spot. I am absolutely in love with their coconut tofu soup and eggplant tofu. The food is always delicious and fresh, everyone there is always so kind and friendly, prices are great, and portions are generous! We recently ordered a large quantity of food for our wedding, and they were able to accommodate our needs flawlessly. Vegan options are labelled clearly, and they are knowledgeable and ready to offer tons of delicious vegan dishes. We love everything about lemongrass!
Best Thai food in Guelph hands down, I ve tried a bunch of their dishes and they re all delicious and the staff is super friendly too!
Friendly service. Ordered Chicken Pad Thai and spring rolls. Food is way overpriced for the very small serving sizes you get. Very little chicken and food was average at best. Was disappointed as I expected much better from an authentic Thai restaurant.
Overall only mediocre. Small portions and relatively expensive vs other Thai places. Ordered a few thing but will comment on the green bangkok curry ... Not very flavorful and I am certain the noodles were spaghetti?? Not vermicelli. Found that very strange. On a positive note, fried tofu app was excellent.
Looking for an amazing meal? Thai Lemongrass is a phenomenal choice! Kacy s hospitality is exceptional. My partner and I order weekly because the food is fantastic. When we call to place our order, Kacy recalls our regular; a Pad poh taek, Thai Lemongrass with chicken, and an order of spring rolls. We have tried many items on the menu, and they are all delicious. Those are just our favourites. The best Thai food outside of Thailand. Enjoy!
Lemon Grass Thai Cuisine is the best Thai food experience outside of Thailand. Kacy always treats us with the utmost hospitality. The chefs always prepare an amazing feast for my family.
Our meal was flavorful, and the portion size was great. Lemongrass definitely satisfied our Thai food cravings (yes, the rice-to-curry ratio is perfect here.. No excess of rice vs. curry) Some items to note: - They are one of the few places that have vegan/vegetarian Green Curry (Some other Thai favorites in Guelph use Fish Sauce) - The Spice level can be turned up to 11, if you so wish...! - If you pay by cash, there is a discount on the meal (I believe it was 10%)
Amazing restaurant, my girlfriend I have been going here once a week because its just so good! We have tried most of the menu by now and none of it has disappointed. I love the Pad-Po-Taek and the shrimp rolls. My girlfriend loves their tofu and the bubble teas! We highly recommended this restaurant.
Ive been coming to this place for over 10 years. My wife and I love the food and theres nobody more polite and detail oriented than the staff here. Amazing and very consistent food. Check this place out!
Best Thai food I ve ever had!
Amazing food!
Basil beef and pad thai are a favourite. Always fresh and delicious with fantastic customer service.
Food is delicious! Service was fast and friendly!
Tried the beef pad thai with a side of spring rolls and it was delicious! I wasnt able to call my order ahead and still only had to wait about 10 minutes for 2 meals! The service was also very friendly. Will definitely be back!
Very friendly staff...delicious food. Highly recommend to anyone. GF option requests is icing on the cake
I love their Golden Tofu. I find their dishes very home style. Not a bad thing, just different. I think there food is healthier than the average restaurant.
Good place for some thai food
Absolutely delicious meal followed by an amazing dessert. Thank you for the experience
Ordered pai Thai and it s very delicious. The sauce is very traditional, and I liked how it tasted. Environmental is overall great and quiet. Recommend!
Wonderful, delicious food! Great sevice
By far the best green curry Ive ever had, wonderful food and service. I would highly recommend this place!!
Lovely people, great food.
Okay food
Simply our go to restaurant for take-out food. Always delicious. Never disappointed.
Staff is very friendly food is amazing!
Great little spot with quick, kind service!
We ordered for the first time. There is barely any chicken in it and the whole thing just tasted like lemon. It is over priced for the quantity we got. The worst Thai food I ve ever had.
The very best place to have authentic thai food. The house special pad thai and crispy shrimps are particularly good!!
We had takeout from here last night and as usual it was delicious. Excellent Thai food.
They have never forgotten my order, no matter how long its been since Ive been around. Delicious food and fantastic staff.
Great chow
Too expensive for the quantity of food. My Pad Thai was ok, not the best and the spring rolls were meh. They give you Sriracha as dipping sauce. Id rather eat at Thai Express.
Ordered takeaway of Green Curry, Cashew Chicken and Thai Spring Rolls. My wife really enjoyed her curry and found it among the best Thai shes had in Canada. The Cashew Chicken was okay and had lots (and I mean lots) of carrots, broccoli and a it of pineapple. If you are used to (or enjoy) authentic Thai seasoning and flavours, you will need to tell them to spice it accordingly. I didnt and as a result found it a bit bland for my taste. I did ask for additional hot sauce on the side, expecting them to include homemade hot sauce. It wasnt homemade, but I believe Sriracha. The Spring rolls were excellent. The quantity of food was stellar! Portions were huge. Four stars. Definitely better than Thai Express, but not quite on par with Chaophrya, Edinburgh.
Not the same as it was last time i lived in Guelph
Excellent!!
Pleasent place. Had one of the curries and fresh rolls. Both outstanding. Service was top notch as well. Recomend for a casual experience.
My husband and I would HIGHLY recommend Lemongrass Thai Cusine, its our favourite Thai food place we have ever had!!!! The food is absolutely delicious!!! The chicken pad Thai, spring rolls, yellow curry, and banana fritters are all the best things ever!! The food is such high quality and made so beautifully. Casey who works there is the nicest person, we love to see her:):) The service is wonderful!:) Casey always knows its us when were calling and knows what we love to eat and how we like it, and always makes it so special. We used to live in Guelph where Lemongrass is located, but moved a few years ago to Cambridge and we still make the trip out to Lemongrass whenever we want Thai food, nothing else is comparable. Thank you Lemongrass!!!:) Love, from: Emily and Josh
Delicious
Love the food please change your hours to the correct times listed on your voicemail thankkss
The decorations and music matches the cuisine. Served fast and the napkins are folded nicely.
Ya the food is ok but the price is just nasty. 28.00 for 4 chicken cakes and a normal serving of pad thai.......rent must be high!
Food is inexpensive here, so you can live quite cheaply.
I often come here to eat.
I often come here for dinner with my friends.
Ordered the chicken pad Thai. At first I thought they forgot to put chicken in, but it turns out it s actually made with ground chicken. Flavour was fine, but you can get better at Thai express. And I don t say that lightly.
Delicious food and super friendly service!
I really love this restaurant. The family who owns it are such lovely people. Christy who works the front is the sweetest and even though sometimes I go a year inbetween visits, she always remembers my name and my order. Its so tiny and quant and the food is delicious.
Work close by and have tried on 4 separate occasions to go for lunch (even with the weird hours), and every single time, it has been closed. They dont answer their phones, so when I pop by they are either closed with a sign on their door, or closed inexplicably. Came today at 2:15 after calling twice to find it still closed, even though Google and the website say it opens at 2:00!!! Wont be trying anymore - skip this place and try the restaurants on the north side of Municipal St
Best Authentic Thai in Guelph
Great food, better service, and tonnes of vegan friendly options. The people working here go beyond what you would typically expect in a restaurant and very accommodating for all dietary preferences and zero-waste options. The food is delicious, and prepared quickly. I would 100% recommend this place to anyone.
Excellent food, and the service was second to none, our group was made to feel very welcome and I will certainly visit again. Note this restaurant is not licensed to sell alcohol.
So! So! GOOD!! wish they delivered. Always fresh and taste amazing!!
Have been going here for nearly a decade, they know our names and our orders at this point even though we only go about once a year.
Delicious Thai food. Excellent service.
This place is the best Thai place in town! She remember my wife and I and remember my order even after months! The food is also quick and very tasty!
Service not that great, but food was ok.
Food was ok, service took forever, and I couldnt get a beer or wine. If youre going to try it, stick to take out.
Went on Good Friday for impromptu dinner. Server was courteous, food was good and bubble tea was tasty also. Small and quiet place.
Excellent Thai food!
Excellent food. Try the mangos and sticky rice!
Quite good. Excellent Tom Yum soup. Very efficient and friendly server.
I eat here regularly with a friend. The food is always really good and Casey is a wonderful server who always takes good care of us as customers.
Excellent food and service, just like being in Thailand
Good was delicious and restaurant was clean. The food portions were a bit small
Outstanding service and food. The pad thai with medium heat was exceptional. Very spicy even for me. And the crunchy chicken cakes appetizer came with a delicious sauce. Great food and value. New favourite for when I visit Guelph.
Most incredible service, fantastic food, and so many menu options. This place is hands down the best Thai food in Guelph and my wife and I have been to all of them.
Unpretentious local Thai venue with tasty food and friendly courteous service.
Very small restaurant it s easy to miss if you are not paying attention. Fast service and authentic Thai food. Can be a bit pricey but worth every penny. Seats are not very comfortable so I prefer doing takeout.
Aweful place.....
Amazing service, perfect portions & so delicious!
Amazing. Delicious. Fast. Friendly
Really wonderful Thai food, all the best dishes done beautifully. Ordered a shrimp coconut soup and it came super fast and was delicious.
Clean, fast & delicious food and friendly staff.
Very good food and service. They know their stuff.
Great food and even better service. Would recommend.
Best quality thai food in Guelph! Best pad thai and drunken noodles we have had in the last 30 years in the region. Service is extremely polite, friendly and quick. Highly recommended!
I m confused as to how people rate this place more that 1 or 2 stars, weak flavour, baseless curry, it s definitely not quality but the price states otherwise. I will not be returning.
Great food
Nice people who know you by name also great food
Decent food but a little pricey. The service wasnt very prompt though.
Sat on the throne for 24 hours.
Love their food. Been going for years. Green, red, and panang curries! And Casey is awesome.
Amazing curry! I tried the yellow curry! Great service! Will be back!
Amazing Thai food. Always reliably delicious and friendly service. Great soup, curries, and pad thai!
My favourite restaurant in Guelph. Ive eaten everything off of the menu and everything is delicious. The apple almond beef is my favourite. My mouth is watering thinking about it
Amazing! Probably the closest green curry to what I had in Thailand. Prices are fair for the portion. My wife loved the small plates which are great for sampling different things. Staff is super friendly. Well be back again.
Great authentic Thai food
The lady who is usually working is so sweet and knows our order even if we havent been there for a while. The food is consistently satisfying and I am grateful this little gem is part of Guelph.
Good food, a little dated
Fast service, the food tasted amazing!
Spicy food even the mild is kinda warm. Good taste very clean.
The food is average, but the wait times are incredibly long if theres been several take-out/delivery orders placed. Waited an hour for dinner.
Best thai food Ive had in Guelph.
Great food, very authentic!
Excellent tasty food.
Always friendly and very tasty classic Thai food. One of the best in Guelph.
Amazing service and food. I will definitely be coming here again. Could not say one bad thing.
Just not that good. Not great value either.
Flavor country! Love this little mom and pop style Thai place. The food is great. So authentic. You can taste the love they put into every bite.
Have eaten here twice now. Both times have been a pleasant experience, with excellent food and service. Would highly recommend!
Pad thai wasnt that great. Tastes just like thai express, didnt really enjoy it.
Amazing place, very good service and clean and tasty food
Delicious! You can tell that they use top quality ingredients. The tea is the best jasmine I ve ever tasted! The flavours are rich and subtle. The hospitality is attentive and very warm and friendly without hovering. So glad these folks have made their home in Guelph!
This quiet cozy little place offers really fresh Thai options. When you want comfort and flavour, this is a great place to go to. Extensive Menu to appeal to all cravings. The service is attentive, and efficient. Prices are reasonable. Food is fresh, and tasty.
Very good pad thai with excellent service! Food is inexpensive and high quality. Clean and quiet.
Always fresh and delicious!
Small, quiet....but food is excellent and tastes very fresh.
Expensive.
A delicious perfectly composed Pad Thai - looking forward to coming back for other selections
My favourite place for Thai food hands down, yum!
Ordered the red curry chicken and it was full of from frozen vegetables. It tastes like someone took a bag of mighty green giant frozen beans and threw some curry on it. Very brutal. Will not be ordering from this place again and surprised that it had reviews over 2 stars. Gross
Great service and amazing food. Cant believe I used to live down the street and only went after Id moved!
We had an awesome experience having dinner here. The food was delicious and the service was wonderful! We will definitely return!
If you want cheap food in small portion that is overpriced...this is your spot. Everything taste like it came from a can...try naha or ben thanh if you want real authentic thai food.
This place isnt amazing but will fulfill a Thai craving if you live in the area. Hard to get to by bus.
Authentic Thai. Not no Viet-Thai style, but straight from Thailand. Been going here for 10 years and its my fav place in The tri-cities.
Amazing food! Great people too.
Way overpriced! I ordered soup and spring rolls and the bill was 22.00. Food was not that great! No prices on the menu.
All around amazing! Food, service, prices; all spot on! My favorites: massaman curry, spicy holy basil, and the Thai style noodle soup. Finish it off with taro with coconut sticky rice
The ONLY Thai food to try in Guelph. The dining area is small, cute, and clean. The service is AMAZING, and Ive always felt like an important and valued customer over the 2 years Ive been going. The food is spectacular. Fresh and authentic, the Pad Thai looks, tastes, and smells exactly as it should - No bright red bottled hot sauce here! The spring rolls are excellent and I always end up getting a second order to share. The mango salad is crisp and fresh every time. In fact, Ive never had a meal there that I didnt rave about. This is the type of restaurant Guelph needs more of. If youve never been and enjoy Thai cuisine, you owe it to yourself to try it. Youll never eat fast food Thai again.
Dont let the lack of decor fool you. This place is outstanding. The food is amazing I recommend the mango chicken. Staff is very friendly and the prices are very fair
Excellent Thai food!!! The yellow curry is our favorite. Great for take-out!
Go for the rad nar noodle dish. It is one of my favourite foods! Amazing spot!!
