    Panang Curry beef combo
    Meegan D.

    This new Thai spot in Truro is a delight where ethnic cuisine is few and far between in Nova Scotia's hub city. The menu is a great variety of Thai favorites. I sampled the Panang Curry Beef (although you can have chicken or pork if you prefer) with a spring roll and rice. Just a warning this is a smaller portion than a regular combo or plate, so if you want a bigger meal order the full dishes. The rice and spring roll were perfect. The panang curry was spicy with just the right heat but I found the beef chewy and would opt for the chicken next time. I was in to eat on a Wednesday afternoon for lunch and there was a steady crowd of diners plus take out. Service with the crowd was friendly and prompt. Everyone in the place seemed to mention the Cashew Chicken after I had placed my order so you may want to give that dish a try. Overall if you live in the hub city or if you're driving through and want a great Thai meal I recommend you check it out!

    I've eaten at many Thai places and it continues to be one of my favourite Asian types of cuisine. It's the fact that you have many different flavours mixing together. Whether it be salty, basil, ginger, soy sauce garlic or curries with heat, flavours diverge and test your taste buds. You mix in some rice or noodles and it compliments the fragrant heat and flavour. So a friend mentioned this to be one place to check out in Truro. I was intrigued. So with a work colleagues I convinced that we order three dishes and we share them tasting style. We ordered ginger chicken, Chicken Pad Thai and lemongrass beef. With this. I decided to wash it down with a Thai ice tea. Here is the low down on each dish: Chicken Pad thai- nice wok flavoured but not overly peanuty or tamarind and but had some salt and sweet. Overall a solid 3.75/5. Ginger chicken- lots of match stick sized pieces of ginger, red pepper, onion and chicken in a rich brown sauce. 3.75/5 Lemongrass beef- beef with red pepper on a very spicy thick sweet and salty dark gravy sauce. A bit over salted but spicy none the less. 3/5 The Thai Iced tea did not have any milk and was sweet, a bit tangy and a little floral tasting. Overall very tasty 4/5 Overall a very strong meal. I definitely want to come back and sample other dishes. Food was very inexpensive. Service was cordial and friendly. Dishes came out lightning fast.

    Thanks Yelp App for searching out this place for me! I'm a big fan of the Talay Thai family and I was pumped to see this location. The food and service was excellent, as expected, prices are great compared to the city. The all day specials include some nice choices but I was sad to see they don't serve fresh spring rolls :( Everyone enjoyed their food; we had the yellow curry prawns, sweet and sour chicken and tamarind prawns. Maybe I went overboard with the pics because the waitress asked if I was a food writer...um know ;)

    I had Pad Kee mow for lunch and the favors were great. I didn't find it too spicy but just a nice bit of heat!

    Agree with other reviews. Not real Thai food having visited Thailand multiple times. More so Chinese food trying to do some Thai flavours.

I ordered $97 worth of food, which was only that high because I gave them a 15% tip, because I'm not a jerk. When I picked up my food, everything seemed fine. I got in my truck, and as I set my food on the seat next to me, everything fell out of the bag. The paper bag was wet, and ripped through the white plastic bag. I don't know if this is on purpose or if they're really that inadequate at packing!! Now, as I am about to post pictures of the mayhem that ensued, it's actually heartless that they wouldn't even give me a RAG to clean it up. I asked for a pail of water and a rag, and they lied to me, and said they didn't have any rags in the back!!! They could only give me paper towels. They tried to hand me one small, balled-up piece of paper towel!! Obviously, knowing I have to go home to my husband, I asked for my money back, and they wouldn't give it to me. Then I called them and told them they need to pay me back or I'm taking them to court. The owner told me that if I had a problem, I could call 911 in as snotty tone as she could muster!!! I am good to people, and everybody who knows me knows I would never treat somebody like this. We are absolutely disgusted, not just at the poor customer service but their lack and UTTER absence of humanity!!! Especially since the waitress herself had even witnessed how bad it was and told me that, that does happen sometimes because it's very hot. I would like to add that the waitress was SO nice and this is not her fault, but the owner is a hateful person who clearly doesn't care about other people, and cannot take accountability for her own mistake, as apparently she was the brain scientist who packed the food. What a hateful, snotty FOUL PUTRID DEMONIC TROLL of a woman. Her karma is coming for her, and similar to my food I paid her for that went on the floor, her karma is something that she will not be able to swallow.

The service was really good and friendly as well. The menu has indicators on spice level as well for people who are sensitive to spices (me). They were pretty empty when we went in, I'm not sure what the busy hours would be or if it would slow down the service. But I would absolutely recommend this place for authentic Thai food.

Great food and ambiance with so many plants all over the entire restaurant. While I was happy with the food and price, service is definitely lacking. We didn't get water the entire time we were in the restaurant and the lunch meals took way longer than it should have for it being 2 in the afternoon on a Monday with only two other tables occupied. The lunch took about 40 minutes to arrive which was quite brutal and the beer glasses that were brought out were just filthy so I opted to drink right out of the bottle like an animal. Definitely great food but not sure I'd sit in again for the amount of time it took and the filthy glass. It was odd because the rest of the place looked clean and the water glasses were spotless. If not for the really slow service, we'd have given 5 stars. I think I'd opt for take out next time and save myself the wait.

We decided to get take-out and called in our order. The lady said it'd take 20-25 min, and it was ready when hubby picked it up. I ordered the black pepper beef for $14.95 and a side of rice for $4. I thought the price of the rice was a bit much. I requested less red & green peppers and more mushrooms, and they obliged. The taste of the dish itself was just okay. It didn't taste like traditional Thai food to me, or at least not like the kind I'm used to eating. Hubby ordered the Pad Thai with chicken for $14.95 and said there was too much soy sauce or something in it. He didn't really care for it. The price of the dishes were reasonable, thus the 3 stars instead of 2, and the portions were a decent size.

They also offer homemade ginger tea here. Lunch is $9.95 and dinner is $9.95-$16.50, plus HST. The dining room is cozy, which has several wooden tables and chairs for eating in. I stopped in at Song's Chopsticks for lunch takeout and ordered the lunch special combo ($9.95 plus HST), choices of Steamed Rice or Japchae, Song's Spicy Pork or Bulgogi, and Spring Roll or Dumpling, which I chose the second choice each of the 3 items. The food was hot and ready to go in under 10 minutes. The portion size was good, packed into a rectangular Styrofoam box. The Bulgogi had great flavors consisting of thin sliced marinated sirloin beef & vegetables (carrots, onion, cabbage, green peppers) sprinkled with sesame seeds. The Japchae noodles (clear sweet potato noodles) were cooked firm. The 2 fried dumplings were crispy outside filled with chicken. The food I had was overall very tasty and a good value for lunch, $11.25 total. I would eat here again! FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/songschopsticks/
