Thai Express - Ottawa

Order a chicken pillow Thai the meat was bad, noodles is so burned, the cook wouldn't make me another, said how it is. Service is so bad!!!

The restaurant was decent, but I was hoping for more variety on the menu. The food was prepared well, but the spicy dishes lacked heat. The portions were generous. Overall, we think they could offer a wider selection of dishes. We would consider returning in the future.

The food was delightful and served promptly. The rooms were clean, and I'm happy I visited. The staff was very attentive to customers.

I've had lunch or afternoon snacks in this place for a few years. That was the first franchise under this name if I'm not mistaken. In recent years there are many others, such as Barrhaven and Hunt Club. The food you ordered will be hot and steamy in front of your eyes and smells exotic! I recommend the Thai food rice dishes with basil. Fish is great for meat! If I have a lunch and arrive a few hours in the afternoon, I love to order her Tom Yum soup. Spicy and hot, and so tasteful! The most interesting dishes are the Thai Curries. I do not find them as fresh or tasteful as other dishes or in other restaurants.

I have ordered the stir fry on several occasions at this restaurant. The ginger flavor is my favorite. The first time I had it, the dish had a great variety of vegetables. The second time, I was asked if I wanted it spicy. I declined, but it ended up being spicier than my boyfriend's spicy curry, which was too much for me to handle. The third time, the vegetable portion was mostly onion. When I asked for no onion the last time, I received a plate full of celery with a few carrots and minimal green pepper. When I questioned the lack of vegetables, I was rudely told that I did not specifically ask for them and was even given the absurd explanation that broccoli is a flavor (although it is not listed on the menu as one). To top it all off, my boyfriend found two long hairs in his General Tso's chicken.
