On the hunt to find good Thai food in Ottawa, I stumbled upon Sala Thai & based on the reviews I…read morefigured it was worth the try. The place itself is nice, ample amount of seating available as well. It was not at all busy when we went. The service was good, food came out in a. Timely manner. The food however was a hit and miss. Starting with Chicken Satey skewers 4/5 peanut sauce was great Tom Yum Soup 1/5 this was our least favourite, it tasted like miso soup, & incredibly salty. Panang curry 4/5 probably the tastiest item we tried on the menu that day. It was flavourful. Pad Thai 3/5 it was ok (47) Gai Pad Med Mamuang 2/5 the sauce itself was a bit salty and watery which made the chicken taste as though it had been boiled and mixed with vegetables. I was expecting more of a stir fry. Mango Sticky Rice 5/5 Overall, the hunt continues.

We also learned that ownership has changed which explains it. The ambience is nice and the service, when we went was great, but we got there early and there was nobody else eating, so there's that. I still recommend Sala Thai and if you like this cuisine and haven't yet tried this restaurant, you're missing out. Parking is easy [I'm from New York City so all Ottawa parking is easy] and you need to try it. You don't need a reservation, especially if you go early.

This is hands down the best massage experience I've had. The level of attention, care, and skill is on another level. You can immediately tell this isn't a routine massage -- it's targeted, intentional, and truly therapeutic. I went in carrying a lot of tension, especially from long workdays, and opted for a combination of Thai oil and hot stone massage. It was exactly what my body needed. The pressure was perfect, the techniques were incredibly effective, and the results were immediate -- I left feeling lighter, looser, and completely reset. What stood out the most was the attention to detail. Every area that needed work was addressed properly -- no rushing, no shortcuts. Just real, quality care. I won't be going anywhere else. Highly recommend.

What is up with the Billings Bridge Shopping Centre food court? It's exclusively mega chains (Thai…read moreExpress, Tandori, Teriyaki Experience, Manchu Wok, Subway, New York Fries, Tim Hortons, and McDonald's) with the exception of Shawarma Andalos, which has a few locations throughout Ottawa, but not as big of a name as the other places. Although the food places are chains they are on the whole, worse than other locations, in my opinion. I try to avoid eating at the food court at Billings Bridge, but recently I was there running some errands and was starving, so I got some food at Thai Express. I originally wanted the Drunken Noodles, and despite them having a huge picture of it and it listed on the menu, they told me they don't serve it :( So I got the Pad See-Ew. I was going to get the chicken, but saw that the only vegetables it came with was Chinese broccoli. I know how food court food goes: a tiny bit of protein and a whole lot of carbs and fats, and I didn't want to eat a dish that was mostly noodles, so I asked what vegetables the Vegetable Pad See-Ew came with and was told "carrots, peppers, nappa cabbage, broccoli, baby corn and onions." This sounded reasonable, so that's what I ordered. It was still mostly noodles :( I got 3 tiny pieces of baby corn. It was more like fetus corn, lol. And 3 small broccoli florets, 3 slices of carrots, and 3 slices of green peppers. I had more pieces of cabbage and onions though. And there was scrambled eggs in the dish. I was expecting more vegetables. Also the noodles were oily and the sauce had too strong of a fish sauce smell for my liking. Sad face :(

Wow, what a disappointment! I had tried the Thai Express in Stittsville a while back and was…read moredisappointed with their red chicken curry, but thought that the Centrum location still had a worthwhile version of it, as I've ordered it a number of times from there in the past. I went there today and ordered red chicken curry, spicy version and was so disappointed. To call it a red curry is ridiculous. It's more of a beige. There is absolutely no curry flavour, no coconut flavour, no flavour whatsoever and the spice level was mild at best. The vegetables and the chicken were cooked well but with no flavour in the sauce, it was a total waste of money and I will never go back. It's like they watered down the sauce beyond recognition.

The food was amazing. Washroom.. ok. The restaurant was very cold. We had to sit with our coats on. It was below freezing outside on this date. Not cheap to eat here. No extras. No bday dessert. Just left... Happy enough but it wasn't a complete evening here if that makes sense. Ordered was green curry. Seasoned well. Jasmine Rice had to be ordered extra. Shrimp pad Thai. 3/4 spice level. Lots of chilis but I like things hot and spicy. I could not order a side of red curry sauce on the side. I've done that at other places. Not here. I'm going to give it another go but likely for takeout.. Ambiance was ok, it was just too cold to sit in here, comfortably. Music was odd too.
