STOP READ AND BE INFORMED: Your in for a horrible experience should you choose to order from Thai Culture Oshawa. As shown in the pics the food was disgusting tasted worse than it looked. Upon delivery from Uber Eats immediately I smelled a strong odour of burnt food. Once I opened the package a white plastic garbage type bag with no seal on it to insure the food was not tampered with I found the source of the smell, as seen in the pics it was a very burnt roti. I set that aside opened the pad Thai it was a gluey congealed container of chicken Pad Thai , upon looking further I found no more than 10 chewed up pieces of chicken. It had no taste what so ever . It was missing main ingredients such as fish sauce, spice, green onions and my notes which were completely Ignored I had asked for extra spice,sauce on the side and extra peanuts. I have eaten Pad Thai from many restaurants and was fortunate to have travelled to Thai Land so I have a pretty good idea what Pad Thai should look and taste like.The real trouble we began when I spent the next 3+ hours trying to get a refund. I was told I would receive a refund before the store closed several times, they even took my card number which I was hesitant to give them along with my phone number. After 10+ phone calls the manager called to say he would not refund my money due to the fact it was ordered through an app the refund was the responsibility of the app service and he had no intention of giving me my money back. And he made it clear he had not been paid by the app which would take 2 weeks he had no responsibility to return my money. It was the worst experience I have ever had with any business , He was a very angry person who wanted nothing to do with considerate customer service. As stated in some of the reviews I also was told the manager was not in the store and could not be reached, I believe he was there the whole time and this is what his employees were told to tell anyone with a complaint. I believe they routinely have issues or why would they come up with a routine of putting you off with one excuse after another hoping you will just give up. I was upfront telling him I would be writing up a review on all platforms of social media. He responded by saying people always tell him they are going to post on social media " GO AHEAD". At one point it was requested that I return the food to the store, my response was I had just had surgery, did not drive and was unwilling to pay Uber 20+ dollars to return food that I had ordered . He was very angry and belligerent .Repeatedly he seemed frustrated that an order had even been placed through an app. He spoke very poorly Of Uber eats telling me they they took a commission on Uber Eats , why did he sign up with them is the question. I was told if I called in myself I would have my money back immediately. He made it clear I was being penalized for having used the app. Do yourself a huge favour grab a slice of bread and some peanut butter as I had to do over 4 hours from my original order.

Cashew but chicken w a side of rice
Megan V.

I was visiting Oshawa and staying nearby. When I stopped by there was one waitress working. The restaurant wasn't busy so I chose a table by the window. The menu isn't as extensive as some of the thai restaurants I've been to before but had your typical green, red, and yellow curry, pad thai, and other noodle and rice dishes. I saw the cashew nut chicken was on sale so I decided to order that with a side of rice. I thought it was really great. This dish had a ton of great flavour. Lots of green and red pepper, whole cashews and long pieces of chicken breast. While I was eating there was quite a few people coming in an out for take out orders. Overall, this was a quick visit but the food was good and the service was bright and attentive. Would gladly go back the next time I'm in town!

Veggie spring rolls
Michelle V.

Great food and very accommodating with dietary needs. The server recommended the veg dinner for 2 and it was delicious.

Green curry
Christine W.

Delicious. I was at a conference in the area and at lunch time about 50 people from the conference all piled in at once. The two staff that were working kept calm and served all of us in a reasonable time. The food was hot and delicious and the service was friendly and fast. I totally recommend this place when u r downtown Oshawa. I know the area doesn't look good but this restaurant truly is

Bangrak Thai Street Food - Pad see ew with chicken

Bangrak Thai Street Food

Bangrak is hands down the best Thai food I have had in Toronto. It is a bit of a drive for me but…read moredefintely worth it and I make sure I order a feast everytime. I highly recommend the Thai fish cakes as the appetizer. They are super tasty and the dipping sauce is amazing. I also highly recommend their massaman beef curry. The curry itself is super addicting with slightly spicy and deep and rich flavors. Trust me and order an extra bowl of rich to slurp up all that goodness. Their pad ka prao with ground pork is another dish that's a winner to me and I always get this everytime I go. With strong basil flavors and the fried egg seals the deal. And of course you cannot leave without finishing off your meal with coconut sticky rice infused with butterfly pea extract and the Thai milk tea. The mangoes are super sweet and paired with the fresh sticky rice and coconut milk that has a slight salty taste that actually accentuates the sweetness of the coconut milk. Everyone is super friendly however they can get quite busy on weekends and holidays so best to order ahead.

I've been looking forward to try this place for awhile . Unfortunately it was a disappointment…read more Ordered: - Crispy Pad Thai with chicken : chicken was very limited ( there was more tofu ) and extremely dry. Portion was very small for the price $18. Noodles were not crispy and super oily/ soggy - granted I ordered take out. It tasted like the soggy won ton chips in a noodle dish :S - Khao Soi- this had to be the most authentic tasting dish . I'm not a fan of curry and thought this tasted not bad. Portion again was smaller than other places we've been to - KHAO PAD KA PRAO- this tasted like Chinese fried rice with super dry as sand beef. Taste wise was not bad but not authentic Thai and not what I expected. Again not worth it for the price point $19

This restaurant specializes in Indian Hakka and Thai food…read more We had a small group of foodies who gathered for a luncheon together. We tried the following Dishes: Bombay Chicken, Hot Sour Soup, Zen Special Chicken, Chicken Fried Rice with Chicken on Top, Manchurian Fish, Hot Garlic Shrimp, Papaya Salad, Thai Green Curry Chicken, Steamed Chicken Momo, Crispy Ginger Beef I normally wouldn't choose to order soup, as I like to fill up on the heartier dishes but I was absolutely blown away by their Hot and Sour Soup. It's not overly sour and to me it was the perfect flavor profile. It was thick and loaded with tofu and chicken. The Bombay Chicken and Zen Special Chicken were both flavorful and unique chicken dishes. The crispy ginger beef was cooked to perfection; i'd definitely order it again. If you're looking for something tasty to drink their mango Lassi is superb. It's sweet and creamy. I loved it! The Thai Milk Tea was also a knock out. It was sooo good!!!

The Big Zen is a Thai/Chinese restaurant (Hakka/Halal) in the Thickson Square next to the Metro…read more Fantastic food and menu, huge portions and great pricing. They also have a very nice dining room if you want to eat in. You may notice that The Big Zen seems very, very similar to The Zen, also in Whitby. The owners say there is no affiliation between the two, but it is obvious it is the same place, with the exact same menu and great quality food, just different owners. Highly recommended.

I used to go to Malinee's when she was located in Oshawa. She had mentioned that she was looking to…read moremove to Ajax and I'd held out hope because it wouldn't be as far to go for her amazing Mussaman Curry. During Covid I noticed that she was no longer open so I assumed she'd fallen victim to the times we were in. Then one day, Yelp decided to send me a notification asking if I was looking for good Thai in my area. I figured I scroll through their suggestions and to my surprise and delight, up popped Malinee's! I wasted no time and hurried in to order her Mussaman Curry. It was as amazing as I remembered it. My husband went with the Chicken with Cashews. Both were delicious and I left with a happy belly. I was so happy that I could even look over some of the cleanliness issues I noticed. It was only a few weeks later when I went again. I went with the Mussaman Curry again but this time, my husband opted for the Beef Pa-Neng Curry. I was somewhat confused by what we were presented with. My Mussaman curry was watery and not as flavourful as it normally is. I'm used to this dish being thick, creamy and hearty but this was lack-lustre. I think the most disappointing thing was that the vegetables in both dishes appeared to have freezer burn and were just store-bought bagged frozen mixed vegetables. Most of the beans were completely inedible. It was very disappointing. Between the inconsistency in food quality and the lack of cleanliness gives me pause. It's such a shame because her Mussaman curry is normally on point but I'm not sure if I'll be back.

I had the pleasure of trying for the first time Malinee's Thai House in Ajax…read more They relocated from Oshawa to Ajax now from what I learned from the owner The place is good for dine in and take out I chose to do take out tonight I ordered the chicken pad Thai, cashew chicken, chicken satay skewers, and fried dumplings The food was absolutely amazing and delicious My wife loved the cashew chicken which comes with a side of the sticky rice .... The pad Thai was super super yummy Probably one of the best I have tried in a long time The skewers were nice with the peanut sauce and the dumplings had chicken in them and came with a nice sweet Thai sauce The owner/cook was so friendly and super nice Price was super reasonable and portions were good I used to get my Thai food in Scarborough but now that I have found this gem of a Thai restaurant in Durham, I will certainly be going back for more

We had a wonderful Chinese dinner from Leon's Garden. Ordered the food on line and it was ready…read morewhen I arrived. Very friendly staff. Nice clean atmosphere. The sweet and sour Chicken Balls had large pieces of chicken inside. They were delicious. The Cantonese Chow Mein had lots of vegetables along with shrimp, bbq pork, beef and chicken cut in good size pieces and so tender. General Tao Chicken had a bit of a kick but not too spicy for kids. The chicken fried rice had big pieces of chicken with egg and onion. Loved it. Chicken Chow Main was made with the bean sprouts with just the right amount of crunch. Everything was so flavourful and really good portions. Very reasonably priced. Thank you so much for making a great birthday dinner of my family.

We were rescued by people who helped us over snow drifts to get to the restaurant and enjoyed an amazing meal at an even more amazing price. Hard to find these days. When we left, an owner or employee (owner I think) knew we'd have problems and left with us (no coat on) and guided us through the snow. My friend had to circle the block, but got lost.... and there I stood until I finally went back into the restaurant with the help of another good Samaritan. When I called and guided my friend back.. the same Leon's worker again walked me out into the snow, over the snowbanks, and to the car. I cannot say enough about the food, the service (beyond the call of duty) and the ambiance. I highly recommend Leon's. Great food at a great price, run by great people!!!
