The papaya salad was flavorful and had a bit of a kick to it. It was nice and refreshing. The panang curry with chicken was very delicious, but didn't have much filling and was a touch too runny for my preference. The shrimp pad thai was yummy. It had the perfect amount of sauce and flavor. The customer service is friendly and efficient.

They were quite quick to be made however I felt there were very few pieces of actual meat in the meal and mostly either noodles or rice. The taste itself was not bad but I did not think it was anything too special. The prices for their lunch menu were reasonable but I would be wanting to pay for more substance than carbs for a higher price.

Decent pho place inside the Michael Buble strip mall (where he filmed the video "Haven't Met You…read moreYet"). This place is on the E side. Parking is plentiful in the strip mall lot. The place has line green and bright orange walls. Reminds me of smoothies. Staff were friendly. No problems. This place has a few unique dishes. Steak garlic pho was the one that stuck out for me. Tastes exactly like it sounds. The steak was more cooked than what I was expecting (it wasn't rare), but no biggie. Pretty tasty. Soup was nice and light. My friend thought the soup was rather bland, but personally I thought it was fine, as personally I find that most places are too salty. Personal preference. I'd definitely come back at some point. Recommended.

I wasn't sure what to expect when we entered Mai's. I was…read morehappy to see that their menu had a good amount of vegetarian options as well as meat. They actually have a little section for vegetarians, which isn't really common at Vietnamese restaurants. One thing that stood out, was that our server automatically knew we would be sharing our dishes and brought us extra bowls and utensils for sharing. I greatly appreciated this gesture. The food did take a bit longer than usual to come out. However, the hot and sour soup with shrimp was amazing. The soup was super concentrated and was probably the best that I have had. They were generous with the filling in the soup. Normally I get this with noodles, but it was great on it's own. The vegetarian spring rolls were nice and crispy. They were full of flavor. The servers checked on us a few times and came to make sure if we needed anything else before the

Authentic tasting Thai takeout/delivery food in Burnaby South along Kingsway opposite side of BMO…read more Grace is the nice lady who answers their phone and runs the front of house. They cater to several delivery apps and I've seen a lot of drivers picking-up food there. We usually opt to just call-in our orders and pick it up after 20 mins since we live close. You get a 10% discount for dinner orders (pick-up) plus saves a bit of money. They have a small dining area -- bar seating by the window. Their pad thai is delicious! We've tried tofu (with egg), shrimp (plus $3) and chicken. They don't scrimp on the shrimp so the additional price isn't bad plus the serving size is quite big. We've also tried #40 Black pepper (Chicken) - it was flavorful, lots of bamboo shoots and other veggies. #57 Pineapple fried rice with chicken -- it was okay, it was a bit moist for us as we prefer drier fried rice and the pineapple chunks were a wee bit too big. Their Thai tea was great. Loved their Basil Chicken fried rice (no peas and beans for us) -- so flavourful and lots of chicken pieces that it's enough to be eaten on its own without another viand. Reheated leftovers the next day and it was still yummy and flavourful. Their Chicken Satay is good too loved the satay sauce, portion size is bigger than your typical Malay/Thai restaurant and it comes with a side of potato chips. Really enjoyed my bowl of Tom Kha Chicken (coconut milk soup), big serving size and thicker soup -- so comforting and warming to the stomach and soul. Overall, Twinkle Thai is our go-to neighborhood Thai place. Pricing and serving sizes are really good value for money plus the food is made really well. Lastly, I'm glad that they are willing to modify our orders (by removing beans/legumes bec of hubby's dietary restrictions). I look forward to trying more things in their menu.

They do give you free salad roll if you order more than $30. I got the chicken pho as I was feeling a little bit under the weather. The regular and large size is only $0.75 difference. The pho came out hot with a good amount of chicken pieces. The noodles were a bit clumpy though. My brother got the lemongrass chicken on rice. He said that the chicken didn't have lemongrass flavor. The marinade must not have penetrated the meat yet. The chicken was dry as well. Overall, just so so. There are other better Vietnamese restaurants in the area and with the higher price, this won't be our first choice.
