Red House - Pickering

We recently found this restaurant as we were driving through the area

We finally visited this restaurant after living in the area for a while and having quite a few recommendations from friends.Maybe it has been better in the past, but we were treated to the most bland, tasteless Thai food we have had in a long time. We ordered Pineapple Fried Rice and Cashew Nut Chicken, as well as the squid and fish cake appetizers. The pineapple fried rice had no flavour, hardly any pineapple, and what looked like frozen shrimp. The fish cakes came with peanut sauce that looked and tasted like peanut butter from a jar. The squid wasn't edible as it had far too much salt on it. The Cashew Nut Chicken was basically Cashew Nut Soup, filled up to the rim with a watery sauce and very rubbery chicken. Needless to say, it was extremely disappointing and we won't be back.

Small seating area but adequate. Busy take-out. Clean and cozy. But there may have been a change in management since we were there last.Menu is not the same as posted on this site. Don't order the pad thai unless you just want noodles in sweet and sour sauce. That stops my partner from returning. She only goes for good pad thai.I had chicken sambal fried with noodles but I have made it better at home. Fried spring rolls good but smaller than regular small thai style. Fresh paper rolls too large to hold together from plate to mouth.Not saying this is a bad restaurant but we have walked out happier for the same price at other places close by

Love the sambal fish and the cashew chicken. Pineapple fried rice is also very good ! The place is always packed so make a reservation or order take out as it is pretty small for dinning.

The chicken cashew nut dish exceeds all other Thai locations in durham region! Small/intimate location. We often call in advance and pick up to avoid waiting/slow service during peek times. Cash discounts available!
