The Tale of the Dishonest Server Oh server, so charming, with a confident grin, I trusted your words as the meal did begin. “You’ll be safe,” you assured, “No gluten in sight,” But your promise unraveled that very same night. The pad Thai arrived, so fragrant, so grand, Delivered with flourish by your practiced hand. Yet beneath its allure, a danger did hide, A glutenous specter I couldn’t abide. “My stomach is strong,” I thought with some cheer, But soon it was clear: disaster was near. The bloating, the cramps, the sweat on my brow— I’m cursing that noodle betrayal right now. Oh server, why lie? What did you gain, By sending me spiraling through glutenous pain? Was it haste, was it carelessness, or something more sly? I’ll never know why you let the truth die. But mark my words, I’ve learned from this plight: I’ll question each menu with unyielding might. For gluten’s no joke, and trust can decay, When servers spin stories in such a sly way.

Thai Pudpong is a gem in West Vancouver! From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with warm, friendly service that makes you feel right at home. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, perfect for a family dinner or a casual meal with friends. The food is absolutely delicious and authentic. I highly recommend the Pad Thai and the Red Curry – both dishes are bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. The seafood options are also fantastic, especially the prawns and scallops. The spice levels can be adjusted to your preference, which is great for those who like it mild or extra spicy. The staff are attentive and frequently top up water glasses without being intrusive. It’s clear that they take pride in their work and genuinely care about providing a great dining experience. Overall, Thai Pudpong offers a wonderful combination of excellent food, friendly service, and a welcoming atmosphere. It’s definitely a place I’ll be returning to again and again!

Wanna know my experience? Ok...here it goes... This was a take-out order. If I had picked up canned Pad Thai from the dollar store I would've had a more pleasant experience. The shrimp in the Pad Thai is frozen not fresh, the texture is old seafood, and it had a raunchy aftertaste lasting into even the day after. It was not de-tailed or de-veined. So, you have poop-tailed old shrimp....eat up! There was barely any bean sprouts or tofu (see pic.) That dish had a terrible aftertaste, and I stopped eating not to risk possible food poisoning. The Noodle Rama. The noodles were cold and old sticking together like noodles would be found at the end of a left-over barrel reserved especially for cattle. But, even they I think would refuse. The beef looked and tasted like they had been deep fried, boiled and burnt (see pic.) The sauce tasted like it would if you mixed mayonnaise and ketchup, and there was no seasoning whatsoever. On top it all....they forgot our chopsticks. I'm not going to sugarcoat this for you. This was the worst Pad Thai I've had. Ever. What an insult to the beautiful nation of Thailand. *for the record 0 stars*

We had such an excellent meal here! Some of the best Thai food I've had since moving to the Vancouver area!! The phad Thai was incredible and the duck curry or Geang Phed Ped-Yang (Barbecue duck in a red curry sauce with fresh Thai basil, cherry tomatoes and pineapple) was phenomenal 😋 There were a couple bones still left on the duck meat so be careful when chewing. HIGHLY recommend this place if you want an extremely good authentic Thai cuisine!!! Will be going here for our Thai food from now on 😄

Friend took me here during my visit to Vancouver and it didn't disappoint. Pudpong has an authentic feel with the servers quickly taking your order and bringing out food. They customized a couple of items for us, providing Thai food that reminded us of eating out in Bangkok. I recommend the Tom Yum soup and Papaya Salad if you can handle spicier foods.

Amazing Experience at Thai Pudding Restaurant I recently visited Thai Pudding, and it was an absolute delight! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, with friendly staff that made me feel right at home. The menu offered a wide variety of delicious Thai dishes, but what really stood out was their signature Thai pudding it was truly one of the best desserts I ve ever had. Creamy, perfectly balanced, and just the right amount of sweetness, it was the perfect end to a wonderful meal. The flavors of the dishes were authentic, with fresh ingredients and well-balanced spices. The service was attentive, and the entire dining experience was top-notch. Whether you re a fan of Thai food or just looking for a new spot to try, I highly recommend Thai Pudding. I can t wait to go back!

A Hidden Gem - Thai Pudding Restaurant I had the pleasure of dining at Thai Pudding recently, and it was an unforgettable experience. The restaurant s cozy, inviting atmosphere set the perfect tone for the meal ahead. The menu features a great selection of authentic Thai dishes, but the real star of the show was the Thai pudding. Rich, creamy, and absolutely delicious, it was the highlight of my meal and unlike anything I ve tasted elsewhere. Each dish was prepared with care, showcasing fresh ingredients and vibrant flavors. The service was outstanding attentive and friendly without being overbearing. Whether you re craving savory Thai food or looking for a special treat to end your meal, Thai Pudding is definitely worth a visit. I ll be coming back for sure!

I recently visited Thai Pudding, and while the food was fantastic, there s definitely room for improvement in the overall ambiance. The service was friendly and welcoming, and the menu offered a wonderful selection of authentic Thai dishes. The star of the meal, however, was the Thai pudding rich, smooth, and perfectly sweet. It was by far one of the best desserts I ve had in a long time! That said, the restaurant s interior and décor are in need of some serious updating. The space feels a bit dated and could benefit from a refresh to match the quality of the food. Despite this, the delicious flavors and attentive service more than made up for the less-than-ideal atmosphere. If you re looking for amazing Thai food, Thai Pudding is definitely worth a visit just don t expect the most modern setting. I ll definitely be back for the food!

Coming from Malaysia where only live 2 hours away from Hatyai, the food here is very bland and tasteless. The phad kratiam and vegetarian delight are very watery, bland and tasteless. The vergetrian delight was filled with watery peanut sauce, its like drinking water with peanut butter stirred in to it. It is awful. The only good (not great) dish I had was the seafood Tom Yam. That too was more sweet than sour. I left with 90% of the food still intact.

Maybe you can watch the sunset at the beach and have a bite to eat on the way.

We were looking for some good Thai food while in West Vancouver, we found this place because of the great Google reviews. Unfortunately, it didnt live up to its reviews. We tried 2 curries, 2 soups, pad Thai, spring rolls, chicken satay, and one rice dish. Most of them were lacking flavour. The green curry was the best dish we tried. We will not be hurrying back. We eat Thai food often at different restaurants, and this was definitely not at the same level as we are used to in Vancouver and the Coquitlam area.

As a Thai international student here, Thai Pudpong can make thai food that that taste the same as my childhood dishes. From now on Pudpong Pla Fu & Mango Sticky Rice are available! Pudpong Pla Fu is deep-fried tuna with mango salad. The dish is a balancing sour, salt, sweet, spicy (optional) Mango Sticky Rice is simply the whole mango and sticky rice with coconut milk. The mango will give the sweetness, while the coconut milk will perfectly contrast.

The service is very quick and the servers are cordial and very nice. Seems like a family run establishment. We had the tom kha soup and the king stir fried veggies. The soup was tasty but extremely sour. It s not a side, the portion size is as large as an entree. The veggies were disappointing. Underflavoured, and the rice had to be ordered separately. Large portion size but taste wasn t the best. For the price, I don t know if i would recommend.

This place is a hidden gem, and it s been around for over 20 years! The people who run this place are very hospitable, attentive, and helpful. The ambience is old school in a good way, it makes you feel welcome and comfortable. The food is delicious, and much closer to the authentic Thai flavours of which most other Thai restaurants in Vancouver lack. And, top it all, the prices are very fair for the quality and portion served. Most items are around $15 at dinner time. Given the inflation we are experiencing, the prices here are also old school in a good way. I hope they keep up with this approach. It was my first time, but I think this will be a regular option for me in the future. Truly recommend!

A treasured Thai restaurant worth a try! In terms of appetizers, their stuffed chicken wings are delicious and go very well with the sweet and spicy sauce. There are two soup options: hot and sour soup and coconut milk soup. Whether it is vegetarian, meat or seafood, it can meet different needs. For salads, their green papaya salad and roast beef salad are both outstanding. These salads are refreshing, rich in ingredients, and seasoned with spicy and sour flavors. For main courses, they have a wide selection of meat, seafood and vegetarian dishes. Stir-fried ginger, stir-fried kidneys, chicken kidneys with spicy peanut sauce, etc. are all delicious options. A variety of curries are a must with a bowl of rice! If you like pasta, their Pad Thai and instant noodles are also good choices. The food is delicious, the price is affordable, and the service is friendly. Whether it is a family dinner or a gathering of friends, it is a good choice.

I am not normally one to throw small businesses under the bus, but people should know this establishment serves raw chicken (I bit into it and may have eaten some; I guess well see how I feel in 2-5 days)! I understand that it was a busy evening (Friday, July 28) and the kitchen staff were likely pressed, but that is no excuse for compromising on food safety standards. Food safety should be a priority for all restaurants, and if a business can t ensure that on a busy evening, it shouldn t be serving food. Id rather wait an extra five minutes to enjoy thoroughly cooked chicken than get sick with any number of pathogens commonly found in raw and undercooked poultry. I brought the raw chicken to the owner s attention, and he initially offered me a small bowl of free rice before finally removing the chicken satay from the bill. No bueno!

The waiter either does not understand English or has a very short memory. Instead of the red wine we ordered, we got the white one. When we got the bill, it had an extra item that we didnt even order. Pudpong special fried rice was terrible. It seems to be this rice was fried on a huge amount of pork fat. There was no taste of the rest of the ingredients, only pork fat. By the way, in the menu it says, that the Pudpong special fried rice has prawns, but it actually has just three tiny shrimps on a side.

Four of us can for dinner. This isn t the first time we ve eaten at this establishment. We thought that the food previous times was delicious. Not this visit. We showed up around 730. We were told there was no rice. We thought we could get along with no rice. We ordered pad, Thai. The pad Thai serving was far smaller than it ever has been. And then we needed a second dish of pad Thai. We were told they were out of those noodles and they would substitute. And what came was a big pile of mushy flat rice noodles. The service was very poor. We were not asked how things were, if we needed another beer. And the owner of the establishment was watching a little TV program at his table. This morning I m not feeling very good. I was very disappointed with the experience.

Nice little family-run Thai restaurant in the north shore. Visited last month for an early dinner - fairly quiet as we were the only ones in the restaurant but they were working on some take out orders. The stuffed chicken wings were good. Theyre boneless chicken wings stuffed with grass noodles, carrots and ground chicken served with a sweet dipping sauce. I preferred them over the prawn and crab rolls as those seemed to be too heavy on the cream cheese (part of the crab filling). Also tried the Thaipudpong Swimming Angel which was chicken topped with peanut sauce and served in a bed of spinach. Im used to the spinach being wilted down but this version is pretty good on a hot summer day. For my money, the Thai milk tea is a better choice than the Thai iced tea with lime. Next time, would like to try one of their curries.

Excellent. Extremely reasonable prices, especially for West Van. Generous and delicious rama noodles. Sauce is not spicy as advertised but quite tasty. Friend had pudpong noodles and enjoyed.

I love Thai Pudpong Yum Neua ( Beef Salad) A lot of Thai people like this restaurants. Sometimes they offer special dishes but you have to order in advance. Great service. Nice dishes.

I dropped a star because when I went yesterday and the pad thai had a lot of rancid peanuts which made the whole dish inedible. The oyster beef was good but nothing special. A lovely man greeted us at the counter today. Their lunch special must be the best value meal in West Van - a decent portion of an entree of your choosing + a salad for $10.50 (including tax). I had the Pad Thai (delicious!) and will be back to try the other items.

This is a small and amazing Thai restaurant serving authentic made from scratch deliciousness. Spiciness to order. Lots of gluten free, also made to order. We are lucky to have this on the north shore.

Would not recommend the Vegetable Delight. It was not delightful, and a bit boring/sad tbh, dish of steamed veggies with some peanut sauce on the side. No stir fried veggies to speak of. My friends choices looked better though.

My family decided to stop in based on the yelp reviews, and especially with less folks dining out, wanted to support the local business. Service seated us immediately and was attentive. We ordered the spring rolls, panaeng curry and vegetable pad thai. The spring rolls came and were fresh and delicious. However, this unfortunately changed when the Pad Thai and Panang Curry came. It appeared and tasted frozen, and the food was lukewarm. When we brought this to our servers attention, they indicated it could be reheated. We asked for it to be made fresh. This brought the owner over, who indicated nobody had ever complained about his food before, that we had let it get cold at our table and said we can remake it, but please dont complain again. Unfortunately, we started digging in the moment it arrived at our table....so not quite true. At this point, we immediately got concerned about what would happen in the kitchen, with the owner insinuating that we wanted to complain. We decided to leave, and will not return. Rating: 2 stars for the spring rolls. Verdict: wont be back

Favourite Thai food in West Van! Great size portions for a great price. Ordered it to go and it was very quick. Phad thai is the best. Wonderful owners!!

December 23, 2020

We ordered takeout from this place for the first time and it wasn t good, and was extremely overpriced. We ordered spring rolls, panang prawn curry, and vegetarian delight. The spring rolls were greasy in an old oil kind-of-way. The curry had overcooked chewy, recently defrosted prawns, with a curry that tasted like it came from a package. The vegetarian dish had vegetables (carrot, broccoli, cauliflower, and cabbage) that tasted like they were recently defrosted and somewhat steamed and came with 1/4 cup of what appeared to be some peanut butter with oil and chili paste and an acid with some sugar to balance it out. These guys still use styrofoam, which is really unfortunate. Save your money, make some rice at home and steam some veg. This place not worth it.

Good food and good portions! I got the chicken phad Thai and the spring rolls. The Phad Thai was very good, nothing to rave about but still delicious. It had no spice (but I enjoy that). The spring rolls were ANAZING, I loved them. The customer service was great and I d definitely order from here again.

It s rare your find a place with one of these: original flavours, stand-up comedy service, or a transporting atmosphere. Thai Pudpong has all three and is complete with Le Chateau Capilano , complimentary for each guest. There is nothing like this place (or that bottle) I ve ever had before. See for yourself...

Was at Ambleside with my wife and daughter so decided to drop in and try this place out . The food was incredible . Especially the green curry omg . And the older gentlemen who was servicing us what an incredibly friendly man . What touched my heart the most about this place is as soon as I walked in and sat down with my infant daughter the server comes and gives a small plate of rice for my daughter to eat immediately and she was really hungry. This gesture really was amazing and to the older gent sir you are amazing keep living your life and spreading love with your humour and personality . I m gonna be a regular now . Thank you for everything .

Worst Thai food I have experienced in Vancouver. Ordered yellow chicken curry, the vegetables werent even cooked and soup was watered down. The chicken larb lettuce wraps were bland and boring . The beef in the nam neua was so tough and hard and lacked flavor. And what Thai restaurant does not offer a spice rack? SO disappointed. We will never go back. This is a disgrace to Thai food!
