My friend and I have been planning to meet up for a while. Our schedules and her moving to Hamilton…read morethis summer had delayed our plan, but we got it together last Saturday. For years, I lived the furthest from the office in our department. Well, that title has been bequeathed to my friend, who lives 60 km from the office. Luckily, we don't need to commute for the rest of 2020 due to the pandemic. If it were a contest, I'd move further east to win... haha! We both love Thai food. I looked at my Yelp bookmarks and suggested that we do takeout from Funky Thai. She liked the name and said, "Let's get funky!" Our plan was to find a park to chat and chow down. She was game. She got to the restaurant a couple of minutes before I did and texted me. I saw the Econo gas station and my eyes immediately looked at all the red signage that Funky Thai had. It's in a completely nondescript corner. I pulled in. There is a patch of road that is gravel. So, if you're turning in too fast, I can predict wiping out when it's slick. I backed into a parking spot next to my friend's car. To see her huge smile again was wonderful. I haven't seen her since I was last in the office back in early March! We walked into the restaurant. It is takeout only. Tables strategically placed next to one another provide a fort-like structure. The woman came over. She was nice. We saw the menu posted on the side. I went with curry pad thai with chicken. You can also do a mix of chicken and beef, and other protein combos for an extra charge. She asked whether I had any allergies, as chopped peanuts go on top of the pad thai. Nope, I was good. This combo came with an appetizer. I chose the veggie spring roll, as did my friend. I asked the woman whether she had any canned drinks. Her response? "Go to the gas station. It's cheaper. It's $1.75 here." Wow! Talk about being honest and promoting Econo Gas. My friend got the pineapple cashew nut fried rice with chicken and beef. It sounded good. Considering that we both did a mini road trip to Oakville, we both needed to use the washroom. You can only use it only if you're a customer. We asked if we could. The woman first went to the washroom to check. She then came back and moved one of the Tetris-like tables away so that my friend could walk over there. Once she came back, it was my turn. The washroom was clean and spacious. My food was ready pretty fast. My friend's took a bit longer. Still, it was fast considering that we were the only folks there. While I was in the washroom, my friend asked the nice woman where we could go to eat lunch. She recommended going down to the waterfront. She said that there were many parks. Nice! We chose Bronte Beach Park and drove over there. Once we found a vacant park bench, we had our late lunch. My friend confessed that she ate her veggie spring roll driving over to the park. I knew that it was yummy just from that admission. The veggie spring roll is amazing. It is jammed full of veggies and glass noodles. It was large, crunchy, and so go with the sweet and sour dipping sauce. I'd come back just for the spring roll alone. My curry pad thai was nicely packed. It looked pretty. It tasted yummy. The noodles were perfect. The curry wasn't spicy. I went with mild, but I would do medium next time. The chicken was white meat, which was tender and yummy. I also got tofu, which was an added bonus. The veggies were delicious. I ate the whole thing. I didn't have a chance to take a photo of my friend's pineapple fried rice. She plowed into it, as she was hungry. It looked amazing. She loved it. I need to order some when I'm in the neighbourhood again. This Thai restaurant also offers Vietnamese food fare. I'd love to try some in future. We both paid using debit. The woman brings the machine to you. This eatery is in such an odd location, but it's definitely worth visiting if you're in Oakville. The service is quick and efficient. I had a great experience.

What a hidden gem!And don't be fooled by the outside.So this Thai restaurant is located behind a…read moregas station with no fancy welcoming look, the parking area too is not finished well with stones and gravel. So a neighbor of ours highly recommend us to try this Thai restaurant, I was very skeptical since the reviews were pretty low.None the less I did give it a shot today and was pleasantly surprised and happy with the interior, service and food. So I came here right after my doctors appointment and decided to get a couple of entrees to try out.I opted to stick with the lunch menu.My order was a spicy Thai basil chicken and glass noodles with vegetables and chicken.Every lunch special comes with a soup or spring roll, I got one of each. The spring roll were absolutely divine much bigger and stuffed well compared to many other Thai restaurant.The hot and sour soup was pretty standard. The main entrees came out within 10-12 minutes after ordering.Both the dishes were so so flavorful and the portions were generous.I also felt that they don't skimp on their meat.Both my entrees were loaded with meat. I ate as much as I could and took the remaining home for dinner.My server was this middle aged gentleman, he was fast and kept checking on me.He also packed my leftovers which I thought was super nice. The place itself is very clean and definitely not that bad as it may look from outside.I highly recommend going here for lunch special and more. I do look forward to coming here again to try out some more dishes with my family.

Tried Nimman Thai Cuisine on a whim while we were in the area, and it turned out not so bad…read more We ordered a mix of dishes, including their Pad Thai Hor Kai (which they list as a Top 10 in Toronto), wrapped in a fried egg with chicken and jumbo shrimp. It was enjoyable and well-balanced, with a slight creaminess from the coconut milk. It may not be the best pad thai imo, but still a good version that's worth trying. The cashew nut chicken had a nice portion and was cooked well, though it lacked the pungent aroma and the umami depth from shrimp paste that I usually expect from this dish. The deep-fried tofu came with their roasted ground peanut sauce, which was really well done and added a lot to the dish. We also tried the Yakupom, a refreshing mix of pomegranate, Yakult, and rosemary that added a light, tangy contrast to the meal. Service was warm, friendly, and attentive throughout. Overall, a satisfying neighbourhood spot with a few highlights, even if not everything stood out.

Stopped in for a quick lunch on a weekday and we just beat the lunch rush! This is a small place…read morerun by 2-3 people, manning both kitchen and the hall so patience is key when you're here during peak lunch hours. Steady stream of pick up and takeout orders seem to pile up quickly. We ordered spring rolls, Panang beef curry and Thai chicken noodle soup for lunch and packed a shrimp green curry and rad na for dinner later. The panang beef curry was choke full of veggies and large slices of beef enrobed in fairly mild red curry with a side of rice. This was delicious and definitely will order again. Thai chicken noodle soup arrived with fried garlic bits and a very flavourful darker broth (guessing due to the cow/pig blood & dark soy sauce used) which seemed small when I received it but it was definitely enough food at lunch. Everything about this noodle soup was superb! It was a pleasant surprise to come back in such a long time to an improved food experience. I'll be back for more for sure!

My personal favourite is their pad Thai which is cooked live in front of you. I don't think it's any true authentic pad Thai but it is delicious and hits the spot for me. Fairly priced at about $10-11. If you like spicy you can add extra to it too

I wa always drove past it but their fairly new store sign caught my attention, so wanted to check it out. I decided to try the chicken red curry, as its not too spicy and just a mild kick with it. The curry was quite solid, creamy and thick, and filled with flavour. Also, ordered a rice, which is unfortunately excluded from the curry. Then, tried the beef pad see ew to share which overall tasted delicious - coated in a savory-sweet soy sauce and tender crispy veggies ( broccoli, carrots etc.) The staff were super friendly, and the atmosphere felt so warm and welcoming -- perfect for a casual family meal. The price range is solid between $15 to $20 per dish. If you love authentic Thai food, this spot is absolutely worth checking out

Service is a hit or miss, while all the staff are polite and friendly, sometimes it's hard to get their attention, especially when things start to pick up. The restaurant is not big, but around lunch time gets pretty busy. It's a comfortable space, nothing fancy. We ordered the pad see ew and khao soi. Pad see ew was good, had nice flavours. Though it didnt come with the traditional large wide noodles. The khao soi was good as well, though again, had mixed canto fried noodles as the topping. Overall a good place to grab a quick bite.

Relatives brought me here while I was visiting Toronto the other week -…read more Small shared parking lot here - but most places were closed at dinner time, so parking was plentiful - restaurant was kind of dim , and lacked lighting in my opinion. Service was very quick and we were seated right away on a weekday night - wasn't busy at all - servers were friendly and made suggestions on what to order. The red chick curry was average at best, found the chicken on the dryer side of things. Pad Thai was also pretty average to me , nothing really stood out. Had Tom Yum soup as well, that was pretty tasty and had a nice spice kick to it (not pictured - as I forgot) Pricing and portions seemed fair - not sure if this was the best Thai in Toronto area, but I definitely have some better go to's in Vancouver. Overall, it's worth a try - however, I'd probably try something else next time, since I'm not local.

Decided to come to INAROY for dinner after hearing that it is a Taiwanese/Thai fusion restaurant…read more The space was bright and clean. I adore the wall decors. Service was friendly and attentive; waitress made sure we are being taken care of. We ordered the Taiwanese fried basket; I personally loved the pig blood cake, and the fried bun pieces were a nice surprise. The steamed whole bass w/ lemon was quite appetizing; we opt for no spicy. Good thing that spicy level for most dishes can be adjusted :) The claypot shrimp w/ glass noodles was tasty, though a tad oily. I do feel like it needs more sauce imo. The spring beans with HK olive was addictive; I love this dish a lot.

I was pretty disappointed with this restaurant. Inaroy is selling Taiwanese-style Thai food, which…read moreis a type of fusion food. It was marketing with a story that the owner of the restaurant had run a Thai restaurant in Taiwan successfully for more than 20 years. I doubted the truth of that story... it feels unlikely to be true...It wouldn't be able to survive in such a competitive environment in the Taiwan food industry for that long. None of the food met our expectations for Taiwanese-style Thai food. And it was pretty pricy. The decoration and props used in the restaurant were nice. The servers were friendly, too. I feel bad giving them such a low score. It felt as though the chef lacked the necessary skill, making me wonder if the owner simply used a polished story to attract investors.
