Really enjoyed the experience there. The place is so zen, relaxing, clean and elegant. The service was very good, and the food's fresh and delicious. Will be back again to try different dishes. I highly recommend trying the mango salad and chicken pad thai.

We went on Friday evening for family dinner. Overall we like the food and ambience of the place. Every dish we order was great in taste and presentation. Liked their eggplant delight most due to its different flavor and taste. In dessert we tried tropical mango icecream and sticky rice with Mango, both were good.

One of the most decent Thai restaurants in the west end of the city. Spacious dining room layout with a relaxing atmosphere, attentative service, and traditional menu. The food was delicious, moderate sized portions, and reasonable prices.

Absolutely fantastic! This Thai restaurant is a hidden gem. The food is authentic and bursting with flavor—each dish perfectly balanced with spices and herbs. The staff are friendly and attentive, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The ambiance is cozy and inviting, making it a perfect spot for both casual meals and special occasions. Highly recommend to anyone craving genuine Thai cuisine!

I used to visit Thai smile and was saddened when I found out they closed permanently, after finding out Sootorn was under the saw management I had to try, the food was just as I remember, rich in flavour and texture. Service is never disappointing, the owners are normally around and extremely friendly. Highly recommend the pad Thai, spring rolls and mango salad.

Excellent service and delicious fresh food. We were a large group and were put in an intimate cozy area that allowed for conversation. We ordered an assortment of food and it was all delicious. Server recommended the tamarind shrimp and it was amazing!! Green curry chicken was delish. Fresh rolls were good. Pad Thai was ok, I found it a bit too mushy for my taste. Exceptional service refilling drinks and making sure we were happy.

The food was delicious and the service was excellent. We asked the staff for their feedback on the most popular items on the menu and their recommendations did not disappoint. The dry curry dish was one of the best we have had in an authentic Thai restaurant in a long while. The ambiance was also great. Will definitely be coming back again soon.

This restaurant is getting worse. We always have papaya salad, this time the peanuts taste very old, like sitting there for months. Pad Thai is very hard and sticky, not fresh at all, don t like it anymore Decent Thai food, overall best of the Halton Papaya (green) salad is super! I like green curry more. Prawns in the soup are so yummy The biggest advantage is the good environment The ingredients are good and the taste is OK. Whats more disappointing is the Thai fragrant rice that Im looking forward to, its dry and not fragrant The green papaya salad and green curry are both delicious

Atmosphere was clean and upscale. We had the pineapple chicken curry, crab fried rice, and yellow chicken curry. We had thai iced tea, which was too sweet and not as good as expected for $7. Rice was to be ordered separately for $3.50, which does not make sense for a curry dish. The bowl was also not as full as we would have liked. The flavours were good, not great. The curries were somewhat watery, and the potatoes in the yellow curry were hard and tasted like they had been microwaved or left out. The service was slightly uncomfortable, as they cleared our sharing plates immediately and would not stop refilling our water. However, our server appeared to be in training. Overall, we will not be back.

The atmosphere at this place is nice, although it s quite dark. The dim lighting could have been cozy, but it ended up feeling a bit dreary. The staff, dressed in traditional Thai attire, added a nice touch, and the decor was decent, with some elements that hinted at Thai culture. However, these superficial aspects were the only redeeming qualities. When it comes to the food, it was a complete disappointment. It felt like an attempt to cater to an Oakville crowd rather than delivering authentic Thai flavors. The dishes were bland, lacking the rich, bold tastes you expect from real Thai cuisine. It was clear that authenticity was sacrificed for a more watered-down version, which left much to be desired. On top of that, the portions were embarrassingly small, especially given the high prices. For what you re paying, you d expect both quality and quantity, but this place failed to deliver on either front. It felt like we were paying more for the ambiance than the actual food, which is not what I go to a restaurant for. Overall, the experience was disappointing. The food didn t even come close to what Thai food should taste like. If you re looking for a genuine Thai dining experience, I strongly advise looking elsewhere. This place just isn t worth your time or money.

The waiter kept asking if I wanted a cold beer or a salad. We had ordered appetizers and a main each. The upsell was just off-putting. I know its not his fault, he was probably coached, but just not in good taste. The place was also difficult to find as its in a square and the address is not listed on the outside of the building. Inside was also very dark. Hard to see our friends waiting for us.

Great food! We especially loved the fresh spring rolls, the curries, and the cold Thai milk tea. The price is also very reasonable especially considering the restaurant s refined and tastefully appointed decor. However, what makes the establishment standout is the excellent, attentive and very warm service provided by the staff, particularly Teddy!

Im pretty sure if I showed the above dishes to any sane Thai person and mentioned that s Thai food they would fight me to death. That is the worst and pathetic mango sticky rice I ve ever seen in my life. The pad Thai is pretty much self explanatory.

June 22, 2024

Thai dood can be fantastic, but not here. Curry and noodles are very low quality. They were serving our mains while our starters were still on the table. The rice for the curries did not arrive so we were all eating alone. Not good service and kitchen planning

Location and ambience very good. Service is good, but not great. Food ok; far away from real Thai. Its twisted a lot. Mushroom was uncooked in the soup. Chicken cashew was nit even 10% close to real. If u tasted real Thai, then will not like this food much. Presentation ok. I will think twice before going there.

June 22, 2024

Very bad experience. When we were sat down, our server asked what we would like to drink, as expected. She then told us that « water, iced tea, ginger ale, sprite all is free» (grammar mistakes maintained for authenticity). We were quite happy about that, since a restaurant not charging for soft drinks is quite rare. So we ordered 2 waters and 2 iced teas. When we got our receipt, we noticed that not only was the iced tea $4 each, the 2 waters were a total of $16! Now I understand that the drinks costing money at a restaurant is expected, but they specifically told us at the start that it was free. Furthermore, charging $16 for water is just ludicrous. Might I add, they brought us 2 glass bottles of water when we ordered for 2 glasses, like at any normal restaurant. We realized that this definitely was not the first time that this kind of thing has happened to customers of this restaurant. Now the constant grin on our waiter s face the whole time made sense. We quickly paid and left, never again.

Have been here a few times and I love this place! Service was great as is the atmosphere..the dim lighting is a little extreme but not a big deal breaker. Food was incredible! For appetizers, we ordered the shrimp chips with this amazing peanut filling sauce, crunchy spring rolls and the best mango salad Ive ever had. For mains the Pad Thai is my all-time favorite. The curry and shrimp dish were also good. The fried banana with Icecream was mouth watering. Highly recommend

We went here for a birthday dinner. The pad thai was phenomenal but the service made our experience and vibe very unpleasant. Not sure if maybe they were annoyed that we had a large group, but they gave us attitude the entire time. There was eye rolling and visible annoyance from our waitress when asking questions or about other manu items. The other servers would constantly pace around our table and stare. We were truly not doing anything disrespectful or negative, they just don t seem warm or welcoming to customers in any way and really made our birthday girl feel like we picked the wrong place to celebrate. Their entrance is also not accessible. Wheelchair accessibility: No automatic door buttons, difficult to maneuver around without assistance

Came here for an anniversary, and they handled and prepared the cake ! Very ambient restaurant with great food and most importantly the best hospitality. The service is the highlight of this restaurant along with the great food. The building and the atmosphere really drive the place to a new extent.

April 22, 2024

Ambience, food was really good. Still why a low rating? My family, including two young children, felt an unmistakable sense of unwelcome, which overshadowed the culinary journey we hoped to embark upon. From the arrival till we left the restaurant , we felt they kinda wanted us leave as soon as possible. For ex, rushing us to order, checking on us if we were done with our meals, handing in the cheque and just leaving the machine on the table, even before we were finished with the meal without even asking for it. While I understand that every restaurant has its ambiance and target clientele, hospitality should never discriminate based on ethnicity or age. Dining out is a universal joy, bridging cultures and generations, and it saddens me to report that our experience was far from this ideal. Kid-friendliness: Not welcomed. The discomfort escalated with subtle yet noticeable signs of disapproval towards my children s presence, making us feel as though their youthful energy was unwarranted in this establishment.

Went for a birthday dinner. There were 6 of us, and we were seated in a cozy semi private area. Service was excellent. The food was SOO good! We had the mango salad (shared), phad thai, Siamese beef, ginger beef, cashew chicken, and two different curries, which were all excellent. I highly recommend. Although the light was dim, we could read our menus. Vegetarian options: We had both vegetarians and gluten free folks. No issues choosing from the menu

Never seen a more tip hungry staff. As a group of 8 adults we asked to split the bill. As we were not too hungry our bills came to $25 a head. The first thing that happened is that the 2 wait staff informed us that tip is not included in the bill. One person paid with a $100 bill and the waiter brought back her charge -$5 saying they don t have change. So she just kept back $5 on her own. The gall of her. Now my friend would have tipped well anyway but for the waitress to just not give back the right change is appalling. Another friend while paying the bill by card put in $5.00 but it billed as 0.50 cents. So after she paid the waiter (a different one) came upto her and asked her if this was a mistake and said we can correct it. And stood there while she corrected it. However the machine was in error as it still did the same thing. It s like they were stood there right in front of us making sure we all tipped what they deemed enough. At the end of the day. It s not about the money it s about the principal of the matter. You run a high end establishment. You should not be treating your patrons this way. Pay your staff better so they are not so desperate for tips. I ve dined in many many establishments. In extremely high end ones and also casual street food places. I have never seen anything like this behaviour.

Went here for new years eve dinner with a couple of my friends from out of town and it was absolutely delicious! We tried many dishes from the menu including spring rolls, chicken pad thai, basil chicken stir fry, and the flaming fish (I can t remember the exact name) and every single one was fresh, packed with flavour and different from the rest. The service was among the best I ve received in a long time. Our glasses were never empty and the table was quickly cleared away as we ate. The atmosphere was also super nice and the volume of the music and conversation was kept low which made the dining experience feel much more personal and intimate as opposed to having to yell across the table to hear each other like in other restaurants. I will most definitely be coming back here and bringing more friends to try. 10/10 recommend this place if you enjoy thai food or want to try it. It is seriously some of the best I ve ever had.

Bad service - Rushing through ordering the food, No one bothers to attend tables with smaller crowd. My only issue is (sadly) their service. Firstly, within 5 mins we got settled in our booth area , we were told by the server/waiter to order the food soon as we are very busy today and as matter of fact they were NOT BUSY at all - this was at 5:45pm and the 60% of the restaurant tables/booth areas are all empty. Anyways, we ordered one appetizer and decided to order entrée once they get our appetizer at our table. And then even before we got our appetizer the waiter comes again (within few mins we ordered app) saying you need to order quickly as we are busy!!! This PUT ME OFF!! (unfortunately, we couldnt leave as my kid was very excited to be at this place). We ordered the entrée and 30 mins later, we first got our entrée and 10 mins later after entrée we got appetizer!! Then they got the wrong dessert which took another 20 mins for them to get the correct order. So, overall we waited more than we relaxed to sit and enjoy the ambience and food. Great ambience! Perfect for a holiday dinner with friends and family or a cute romantic date or a girl friends dinner. Food is OK, I wouldnt say it was the best Thai food I ever had but for the price, the taste and quantity is fair.

This place is horrible. I ordered the spicy noodle chicken and it was soupy. Might as well say it s spicy soup with a side of noodles. Very disappointed. This was my first time trying this place and I ve never seen soupy Thai noodles until now. They got our order mixed up which doubled the wait time and it was $40 for two undesirable servings. This place is a hard no for me.

We went there on Valentine s Day for dinner. The restaurant itself has a lovely ambiance but the service and food was disappointing. We were sitting for 15 mins before someone came to take our order or even offer water. Our waitress finally arrived after I asked for her. My soup was served 5 mins before my husbands, so mine got cold waiting. Our cocktails arrived much after the soup. My lychee martini was sugary sweet, like sipping syrup out of a lychee can. They offered to get me another one which was completely bland. Our entire dinner was served and laid out on the table while we were still having our soup. We finished and waited 20 mins for someone to come and clear the table and offer the dessert menu. A waitress did clear the table and then she brought the bill without asking if we wanted dessert! When I pointed that out to her, she said Oh I thought I had asked you , which she clearly had not. My expectations for this restaurant were higher. The food was very average and with service like this I m not sure we will be returning.

Had a pretty poor experience. The service was very poor, and I wouldn t go again with a large group, or for any special occasion. Gave 2 stars for food, but there are other restaurants in the area that have great service and food, and that you can have a great overall experience, which this place cannot provide. They seemed to just want to rush us, and just wanted us out of the restaurant. They also weren t very friendly, and when we asked if we could move, as we were right next to the door in -7 degree weather, they were unwilling to do anything. I had placed a reservation about 8 days ago, so it was not like a last minute call for a large group, and I think they could have saved a better table for us, especially since it s a pretty big restaurant. Also, there were definitely places we could have sat, but they just didn t want to do anything. We were taking pictures, and the waitress had no patience to just wait a second before placing our food, in this tiny cramped space next to the door. For desserts, the waitress just barked at us that the kitchen was closing, and to hurry up to order. I understand that the kitchen was closing, but if she wasn t so rude, we d probably have ordered 2-3 desserts. Food was great, but because of the service, I wouldn t bring a large party or anything. Maybe take-out. Definitely other places for dine-in Thai food.

Sunday May 14th around 3:30PM - The food was amazing and my mother was really happy being there for Mother s Day. It is one of her go-to spots for Thai food especially. We did unfortunately have some inconveniences. From the way we had to order , the waiter unfortunately had nothing to jot down on, so it was mostly just verbally and trying to remember. Which lead to an order being messed up in the process. When the food came , a lady accompanied our waitress with the wrong food saying if this would do instead , I kindly requested if I could get what I ordered instead, and I said thank you and everything. I smiled and showed 0 rudeness and thought I was being reasonable. The lady walked away with the food slowly and kept staring at me. It really did look like a hostile stare. My family and I just shrugged it out with the benefit of the doubt but it did leave some of us very uncomfortable . After the right food was brought I was pretty worried to eat it even , that s how hostile that stare was. Obviously after a while we ended up finishing it and the food was really good. We would come back here no problem but hopefully these things could be avoided next time. The food can only be so great but if the staff isn t well prepared and there wasn t this much hostility shown, it would ve been 5/5. I m sorry if this review comes off as harsh.

We love this restaurant so much, my family and I drive to Oakville from Kleinburg to dine at this restaurant almost every other week! The place looks great! The service is always excellent and the food quality is great and consistent! Even the shampoo and the towels at the washrooms are handpicked and smell great. This restaurant is is doing everything right. Great job! Thank you!

The interior of this restaurant is so beautiful, but the customer service was horrid. We went on a Monday when it was pretty quiet, only 1-2 other tables of couples being served. There was one male and one female who was attending to everyone in the restaurant. You could tell they treat their regulars with much more attentiveness and good service. The regulars were offered drinks right away and their food came much faster than ours even though we came 20 minutes before them. Never once were we approached to ask how our food was so far. Food was good but I guess smaller portions for the price, but what really dampened the experience was the poor customer service. Don t trust their online menu because there isn t lunch specials during lunch time. We asked about it and even though it was lunch time, the male server said uh no lunch specials right now. Only fixed dinner menu for 12pm on a Monday. Overall, beautiful restaurant, cold customer service.

Menu items so hard to read as it s soooo dark in there. I ve been here a few times and this is definitely my last time EVER. Service is terrible. They tastelessly up sell ALL the time. It wasn t busy but one of our servers was sooo rude and she wasn t even our main server. We asked for separate bills and they said it s too much trouble for them to do that. Like what?! They automatically charge tip and our group was only 7. I personally think they do that because they know themselves service is terrible so it s a way to make sure they get their 20%. Portions are small. This area is full of great restaurants and personally I think the host could of selected better ambiance, great service, and better food.

I recently went to Soontorn Bahn Thai with friends for lunch. The restaurant has a nice interior, but I found it a bit dark, making it challenging to read the menu without using my phones light. The service was a bit slow, especially considering the place was relatively empty, with only 2 other tables occupied besides ours. However, the redeeming factor was the delicious food they served. The flavors were impressive, and the dishes were well-prepared. Despite this, Im uncertain if I would give it another try. The overall experience, considering the service, ambiance, and price, left me somewhat hesitant to return. I might explore other options in the future for a more satisfying dining experience.

Ive actually rarely had a worse experience and never returned food before. Greedy, money grubbing owners. Things went wrong almost immediately when my $7 thai iced tea was all ice in a glass so narrow there must have been like 50mL of actual drink in there and like 2 millimeters of the condensed milk on top. We shared the $30 appetizer platter (which they tried to upsell add ons for) and were kind of disappointed that for that price we didnt even get one fresh spring roll to share between us, at first we thought it was a piece of sushi, like, what do they do with the other 3/4 of the roll, wait for someone else to order another platter? We ordered salad for our mains since we thought it was insulting that they charge extra for the rice that always comes with the curries elsewhere. Still, we were feeling optimistic but then my main came out. I ordered the Thai salad and it was the most bland dish Ive ever had, two pieces of tiny tiger shrimp and two very thin pieces of unseasoned pale chicken and roughly chopped vegetables that made it feel like eating a grazing board, the sweet vinegar sauce on the side didnt help at all. I felt so disappointed that I did something I never do, I asked if I could kindly order a different dish since absolutely nothing on the dish appealed to me in any way, the manager or owner is who I suspect I was talking to, said shed bring me peanut sauce but I really felt like that wouldnt help at all, and kindly asked if it would be possible to get another dish, after making it clear at least 5 times in response to her asking that I didnt want the peanut sauce I asked her to stop talking in circles and asked if shed replace the dish or not. She offered me peanut sauce. At that point I returned the dish and said no thank you to anything he offered, including her attempt to upsell us on dessert. Im convinced how dark it is in there isnt for the mood. At this point Im sure theyre even pinching pennies on their electricity bill.

December 22, 2023

The worst dinning experience ever. They sell the most expensive ice tea I had in my life, $7 for a thai iced tea in a nerrow glass full off ice. Service was terrible, they sold us extra side dishes where we thought it was included in the meal. The place is way too dark inside, making it almost impossible to read the menu. The service was slow, considering the place was almost empty.

We went here without expectations, but we were blown away by the quality of food and service. The ambience is warm and welcoming. We booked a table for four and the server (Ted) was kind enough to move us to a quieter spot as there was a bigger group next to us. We ordered the spicy red fish curry and green chicken curry and cannot recommend it enough. The desserts were scrum dilddly umptious. The pricing is extremely reasonable. Every one here welcomes you with a smile. Enough cannot be said about the taste quality of the food. Easily one of my favourite spots in Oakville. 10/10 best Thai place in Ontario.

Extremely disappointed with this place. I was picking up a delivery order and was treated very poorly . I urgently needed to use the washroom facilities and was denied due to the washrooms being only for costumers. Now am I not a costumer if Im picking up an order ?? . Isnt the owner of this restaurant making money through delivery? I was told to go to a washroom more than a block away and I couldnt hold it. Felt very humiliated

Pretty good Thai place in a beautiful location at the heart of Oakville. The interior is perfect for an intimate dinner with a friend or partner. The vibes are fancy with good food and decently priced options. My favourite dishes were the tamarind shrimp and fish, which in my opinion were 15/10. You will only agree if you love spicy Thai food and tamarind flavours. The curries were also amazing, but go for the seafood ones - fish and shrimp. Pair that with a nice Thai iced tea or pina colada. The chicken curries and stir fry were mediocre quality and I would not recommend getting those. Finally the spring rolls were good start to the meal.

Excellent Thai restaurant

December 22, 2023

came there with my sis and baby to eat but was appalled when they seated the 2 people after us(who doesnt have a reservation btw) then right in front of our face told us theyre already full they picked the people behind us to seat when we were the first ones to arrive just becoz we have a baby and a stroller. they still shouldve accommodated us we came there first. felt discriminated. racist and awful customer service. not accommodating for family. dont eat here if u have a baby. the guy also told us we shouldve come the day before because they are not full. funny. which for us was not a good approach to the situation it is not a good way to treat a customer. save ur money and go elsewhere i dont recommend and will never come back. Kid-friendliness: not accommodating for families with babies/kids.

December 22, 2023

I was really disappointed with their horrible customer service. I went there last night with my sister and her baby. We came in first and there was a couple behind us. We do not have a reservation and so as the couple behind us. The staff at the front who was holding a piece of paper, called them first instead of us and gave them a table. After that, the guy showed us the table and wants us to finish our food at 7:30pm coz there s a reservation. He gave us a time limit to eat and he should ve accomodated us first instead the couple behind us. He is unfair, racist, and discrimating to us. I will never go back there again and would not recommend it to everyone I know.,

The food is great. Ive ordered here many times. But if you are ordering take out, either delivery or pick up be prepared to wait anywhere from an 1hr or an 1 1/2hrs to get your food(this has happened to me multiple times now). They arent honest about the wait times for food, which is a disappointment. If youre hoping to get your food in a timely manner look elsewhere.

Pretty good Thai food to come across in Oakville. Loved the ambience and the traditional outfits the servers were dressed in. I really enjoyed the tamarind fish delight and golden squid. Couple downsides were the Thai milk tea being way too sweet and their pad Thai was average (high hopes for my pad Thai every time I try a new Thai place). Lastly, although they are open until 10pm, we were given the machine before finishing our dessert even though the table next door was still eating and even came before us. All in all, not a bad experience.. I ll probably come back to try some other items on the menu

Second time at this restaurant. Food was really good this time as well. Chicken green curry and the Siamese beef were both amazing. Not sure if it was just an off day but the service was really bad. The staff were really disorganized. No one brought us water or took our order for a while after we sat down. When they finally did take the order they only brought part of the drinks order out. We had to remind them a couple times before they remembered. That level of service continued through the evening with items forgotten or staff asking us something that another server had already asked about. Even when paying the bill, it was paid and then another server brought the bill again lol.

The place looks amazing and I would like to think I landed up on the wrong day when they were understaffed. Despite the restaurant not being busy, service was slow. They got my order mixed up so waited another half hour to get my right order. Veg curry needed more curry. Flavours were good, but overall an underwhelming experience given it was my first time there Vegetarian options: They checked if I would prefer the curry without the fish sauce, appreciate that attentiveness. Good variety of veggies used and all fresh. Parking: Lots of paid parking in Oakville so even in a busy Friday afternoon I found a spot to park close by. Reasonably priced too.

Sadly, we had a disappointing experience at this restaurant. While the food was only ok, we were there to visit with friends and were rushed from the moment we arrived. We had a reservation for 6:30 and they were asking for our order before we had even sat down and before our friends had arrived. The entire experience felt rushed. We were ushered out an hour later. They needed the table for an 8:00 reservation. For a $65 per person I expect better. The one star is for the mango salad- it was delicious.

Will start with the positive ; the restaurant is beautifully decorated with pieces that seem authentic . The servers outfits are stylish and elegant. The seatings are a bit low fir me , the lighting is bad , we were not able to read the menu , lucky we had in our party a young gentleman who was able to read the menu and order for everybody . Service was ok but I have to comment on the fact that our drink orders ( beers ) were brought to the table along with the glasses but we had to pour in our glasses . The food was bellow average . The mango salad was too chunky and the dressing too sweet , the spring rolls were gummy (probably they were sitting for a while ) and the peanut sauce was too sweet . The Siamese beef was rather good , the shrimp was a good quality but the chicken was like leather . All the veggies were undercooked , the rice was cold and overcooked . I have listed all these complaints not as a criticism but in hopes that the restaurant will take them in consideration and improve Vegetarian options: The vegetables were undercooked , the mango salad was not chopped properly , way too chunky and unequal
