Royal Thai Palais Imperial - Ottawa

Not exaggerating, this is the best Chinese food I’ve ever had. The general tso and sweet and sour pork had an amazing coating but the pieces inside were huge! Egg rolls are incredible, Hunan dumplings out of this work. Beyond amazing

I was truly impressed with this restaurant. The staff is extremely friendly, the food is of exceptional quality and full of flavor, and the wait time is surprisingly short considering how busy it was. I ordered the yellow curry, and without a doubt, it was the best Thai curry I've ever had. The spring rolls are fantastic as well. I highly recommend this place to everyone!

My boyfriend and I went on Canada day because I was craving pad Thai (lol) . Service was great, everyone was really nice and understanding when we said we just wanted an order of pad Thai. The food was really good, though I don't really have anything to judge it against as the only other pad Thai I've had has been from Thai express. Large portions, fair prices, the only thing that was a bit lacking was decor. Overall, would come again and recommend to others.

I visited this restaurant with friends a couple of years ago, and it left a lasting impression on me. I absolutely loved what I ordered, which included chicken coconut milk soup and a curry dish. Since I was with a large group, I had the chance to sample many different dishes. If you go with a decent-sized group (7 or more), you can sit at a large round table with a turntable in the middle, making it easy to share with friends, which is great if that's your style. It's a fantastic spot in the market if you enjoy Thai cuisine. Be sure to check it out next time you're in the area!

The restaurant has been in the area like 20 years and it is still there...so something must be right.  I don't know the Royal Thai part very much but it seems like Thai cuisine by Chinese is not so authentic, but Palais Imperial is my go to dim sum place in Ottawa.  It is better than any dim sum in Ottawa Chinatown in my opinion.  Good selection of items with friendly service.
