    I had a late lunch today at Green Mango Express. In the early 2000s, I worked downtown in one of the office towers in the Eaton Centre and ate at the Green Mango at Yonge/Shuter A LOT (it's long gone). I conducted an enrolment seminar in Etobicoke today and was happy to come across Green Mango Express on my way home. I checked and it's part of my old Green Mango's chain. Apparently it's been there for about three years and I've never noticed. They recently got a new sign so the old sign obviously didn't jump out at me. I ordered the Chicken Curry with Jasmine Rice luncheon special ... it was a lot of food for $10 so a great deal! I'm not a big fan of veggies so focused on the chicken and carrots. The sauce was sweet and surprisingly spicy ... I liked it. I'll be back! The guy at the counter was friendly. He cooked it up fresh for me so next time I'd ask for just chicken and carrots in the sauce.

    Notice the lid is oily/stained & even my bag had drippings & staining bc it's so runny oily.

    Went there today for the first time wanting to get a meal with veggies, chicken and rice and they suggested I try their yellow curry meal and so I did. I have had curry before at other restaurants and usually it has coconut mixed too but this one I was in shock with when I got home... it was oil based which I have never seen. The whole bowl was mainly swimming oil.. it was superrr greasy.. I couldn't even eat it. I was so sad I had to throw it out but who can eat a bowl of oil & coloring with veggies. The yellow oil stains so easily and drips down quickly bc it's so oily/runny. It tasted awful... I regret getting this curry meal. I wish I had tried something else but now I am afraid to try anything else there after this experience. I have posted pictures of my meal to share on how oily it was..

    Ginger Chicken, full of mushrooms, after requesting no mushrooms and being told Ginger Chicken doesn't have mushrooms.

    Have rated 2 out of 5...we found the food really greasy (more than usual Thai) and the chicken in the Pad Thai had a layer of fat on it. Never had that before with Thai food. My husband wanted to just throw it all out. I was also annoyed that when I ordered, I asked for Ginger Chicken with no mushroom, to which they replied there are no mushrooms in ginger chicken. But upon arrival, it was full of mushrooms - see photo. My final complaint is the customer service: both on phone when placing the order and in person when picking up, they were very curt and no friendliness whatsoever. Was very disappointed in the whole experience given others had rated this place well (avg rating was over 4/5 stars). We will not be back. There are better Thai places around that will provide better food and customer service.

    Green Mango used to be located just south of Yonge and Bloor many many years ago. Back in those days, this place was truly one of my top picks for quick, inexpensive, and AMAZING food! When they closed, I cried inside. Funnily enough, their old location found itself referenced in two of my recent reviews of other places that are in the same area today. In both cases, I was criticizing those two other restaurants and lamenting that Green Mango wasn't around anymore. Then I thought to myself; Is there any chance that Green Mango just moved somewhere out of my usual areas? A quick google search found that there were still a few different Restaurants owned by Green Mango and that their owner sticks to working in the Green Mango Express out west. I was overjoyed and convinced my wife to make a pilgrimage after work to try this place out! I was pleased to find the owner working right up front and more than happy to reminisce about the old days. I was a tad disappointed that I wasn't able to find my old favorite food choices as they have been updated since. That being said, the food is still really great, the servings are generous and the prices are right! Even though this place is about a 20 minute highway drive away from where we live, my wife still wants to come out again soon. :) So you might ask why I'm giving this place 4 stars if the food isn't quite as good as it used to be. Well, that's because it would have gotten a 5 if it was! 4 is still bloody good and this place deserves it!

    Was not amused to be the only one standing in line waiting for 2 mins for the owner to finish his video on his cell phone. We ordered two pad thai's of which there was enough chicken for only one! (Please see photo) most of the chicken that was there was really fat and inedible. We had been there awhile back and to our surprise things have changed. Customer service and food quality has gone down.

    I'm definitely coming back here!…read more We ordered the Tapioca dumplings, the beef messemen curry, and the mango and purple sticky rice. Wow! It was all so tasty. The tapioca dumplings are unlike anything I've tasted before. They serve it with a side of lettuce, mint and peanuts. I liked the dumplings better without the sides they served! The lettuce and other add ons dim the flavors of the dumplings. So I prefer just eating the dumplings straight on. The Messemen curry was so flavorful and the beef was so tender! I'm a big fan. If you're a fan of Thai curries then you'll definitely like this! The Mango purple sticky rice dessert was also really tasty! It had a tasty coconut sorbet and it all went really well together. Service was good, food came out quickly, vibes were good. No complaints here!

Unfortunately, the day took an unexpected turn when I had to go to the hospital, and for a while I thought I wouldn't make it at all. As a testament to both the kindness of my friends and the exceptional staff at Lao Lao, they were able to accommodate us even though I arrived nearly two hours late on a busy Saturday evening. Originally, our table was only reserved until 8:00 p.m.--the exact time I finally arrived. Thankfully, with the help of our incredible server, Savanna N., everything worked out. Her professionalism, warmth, and willingness to help truly made the evening possible. More than anything, I hoped the wait would be worthwhile for my friends, who were visiting for the first time. I'm happy to say they absolutely loved it--especially the outstanding hospitality and customer service. A huge thank you to Savanna and the entire team for making us feel so welcome. As for the food, every dish was delicious. Nothing disappointed. The papaya salad was such a hit that we ordered it twice. The Beef Massaman Curry, Crispy Lao Spiced Chips, Banana Leaf Steamed Fish, and the seasonal Vermicelli Noodle in Chicken Coconut Red Curry were all exceptional. Although it had been about a year since my last visit, I was delighted to see that Lao Lao remains consistently excellent in its food, quality, and service. Bravo!

We started off with…read moreappetizers of the fried pork and grilled curry squid and the dipping sauce was amazing just like home. We were unable to take pictures because they we're eating so fast. We decided to order just a couple main dishes and they were also amazing. The flavors from the curry noodles were very rich and creamy and absolutely delicious. The drunken noodles had a perfect blend of spices just like Hometown and we will definitely go back to try this and the rest of the stuff on the menu again. The service was amazing, we were greeted by the host with a warm welcome, and the waiter was also very kind. It is a true authentic Thai restaurant and the food and flavors are expected and reflect from the culture. Ambience is just like the islands of why the title of the name is there and the decorations are amazing. Let's talk about dessert, the pandan toast was out of this world. Top two with the coconut ice cream and the decorations and the display was already worth $1 million photo. The flavor was not overwhelmingly sweet but Rich at the same time. Thank you for your hospitality and kindness and delicious food and we will definitely be back soon to try the rest of the menu.

I was quite impressed with it... probably rate it slightly higher than Pai and Thai Barn Na. Food (4.5/5) - nice menu with lots of variety and overall good food quality. - Khao Neow Gaeng - this is one of their signature dishes and was fantastic! Stir fried pineapple curry with coconut curry sticky rice. What a great mix of items with great flavour, served in a half pineapple. - Khao Soi - a nice flavourful mix with a tasty curry broth. - Moo Tod - fried pork belly served with a lime sauce. This one was just OK imo... bit on the dry side. - Pandam Toast with Coconut Ice Cream - a really tasty dessert with a toasted custard piece and creamy ice cream. Service (4.25/5) - this place gets busy but they are fairly well staffed and keep an eye on the tables to make sure people are moving through quickly. Maybe can appear a bit standoffish for that reason but not rude at all. Atmosphere (4.25/5) - it has two levels for dining and also a small patio out front. Not as elaborate or upscale an interior as Pai but functional. Overall (4.4/5) - A definite repeat to try some of the other dishes. Be aware that it can get very busy so book with reservations.

This time we ended up at Khao San Road, which was busy from the get go. We got there a couple minutes before opening at 5pm, and before you knew it, there was a line waiting behind us. Inside was quite spacious between tables, and they were playing throwback tracks. We ordered a mango salad to share, which was okay but not my favourite. It got really sour near the end but next time I would try the papaya salad instead. For my personal main, I got the Pad Thai with no spice. It was still very flavourful and the noodles were cooked perfectly. One thing I appreciate is that the portion size is huge!! For me, this could've easily been 2, if not 3 meals. The Thai iced tea was also really good but on the sweeter side. A good restaurant to try if you're coming from out of town, wouldn't be disappointed.

TL;DR - good food and reasonably slower service when busy.
