This is a new nice addition to the Union Station, new spot at the Union Station food court. Apparently, the same owner as Khao San Road, lower price but you get at least 90% of the flavour. I arrived right at noon, long line up for the second day, but they gave us chips to try. This helped when I was starving and lining up. I've ordered the drunkened noodles and find the noodle texture great, along with the sauce. However, I find the pork a little too sweet to my liking. I added $3 to add the shrimp to my noodles and tofu. I did like the added ingredients to my noodles. Anyways, I will be back to try other items on the menu!

We went there at noon and the line was not that long, thai express always gets the same amount of ppl in line too but the reason why they were moving so slowly is because it took them FOREVER to make one dish. The assembly line, the cooking line, I don't think the staff is really familiar with what they do, we literally waited almost 40 minutes before we eventually get our dish. The plastic container they use is very thin but the curry is very very hot, all of us got burnt because of that, and putting stuff hot like that into plastic container just gave me health concerns. The portion is really small, I don't eat that much usually but I still think it was not enough. I ordered the green curry, it tastes super good, super super good, so I wasn't that mad after. However waiting for 40 minutes for a food court location is just insane and im not going to give it another try unless I can get it thru ritual.

A fast food Thai joint similar to a Thai express. I ordered the drunken noodles and found it mediocre and I found the portion size not worth the price that I paid for. It is though a good option to pick from in the food court!

Grabbed chicken drunken noodles and they made it fresh and tastes great! Good for a quick bite!

Penang Curry

I wasn't sure of what to expect. I've had pad Thai a couple of times before and it wasn't that great. The Penang curry caught my eye so I went with that and it was a great decision. There was a ton of chopped peanuts on top, that I absolutely love, and the curry mixed so well with the rice. The was a decent amount of meat and to be honest, I wasn't expecting very much from a food court meal. I was pleasantly surprised.

Panang curry with cauliflower rice
Maryam M.

I'm torn between three and four stars. Based on the food I would give it 3 stars, but they get an extra 1star for the fact that they offer cauliflower rice! Not aware of many Thai places that offer that. Plus the rice was veryyyy good!!! I had veggie panang curry that I also enjoyed. The amount of veggies in the curry was good and the curry taste was also acceptable - a little bland for my liking so I added lots of tabasco and siracha but still later had to ask for more salt too (but that's personal preference). Staff was friendly and efficient. Would suggest: keeping salt and pepper sachets for those who like. Would also recommend staff to ask about drinks when taking orders. I forgot to order at the time and later it seemed like too much of a hassle and I just went to Tim's instead.

Went to Union Station's new food court downstairs at around 12pm on a weekday. Holy smokes the line was probably the longest for this place. I was prepared for a good 15-30min. wait. Isham came up to everyone in line and distributed menus. She also was open to giving her input as to what would serve our taste buds best! I told her I loveeeee spice! She told me she was Pakistani/Punjabi and loved spice too. Although she recommended the Drunken Noodles, I opted for the Red Curry. She told me to tell the staff at the front to add extra chili rings. I finally got to the front and they were okay with me giving them a $100 bill. I found a $10 any way...phew! I asked for it to be extra spicy and the girl said she would ask them to put in chilli flakes while cooking my meal as opposed to having them on top or on the side (a mistake a lot of places make). They called my name in about 10 mins or less. The girl who gave my order to me gave me a side bit of peanuts (which opened up in my purse and had to go in the garbage). She also gave me even more chillis. The curry was piping HOT. I walked from Union Station and took a subway to College Station and my food was still pretty warm. The dish was so incredibly yummy for food court food. Wow. It was saucy, spicey and most importantly full of vegetables. I opted for tofu as my protein source. My total was $12.43. Note* The sauces are all gluten-free and vegan! There are a lot of vegetarian options here. In other words, my tofu Red Curry was entirely vegan. Amazing job!!! Will definitely come back!

Sorry but this is a miss for me. I went on the first day and got the basil stir fry with rice. It costed about $15 after tax and portions were on the small side. I also waited pretty long in line but this is understandable since they just opened and it was at lunch time. The sauce for the stir fry was WAY too sweet. There was no subtlety at all...just pure sugar. I am not a fan, sorry. Maybe the noodles are better but I'm not that impressed to come back.

Jessica C.

My husband and I tried this delicious Thai basil stir fry from Bangkok Buri. The flavors were nice, a good mix of sweet and spicy. The proteins we chose were chicken and steak. The rice was great with the stir fry as well. I really like the fresh veggies and sauce that accompanied the stir fry. The line is very fast and the service is great. You can also add more spice to your dish if you decide too. I would definitely eat here again and try some of the other tasty dishes.

Just passing through Union station and saw this Thai place and checked out the menu, I had plenty of time to check the menu over because they had a "lineup starts here" at THE END OF THE LINE!! I waited for about 15 minutes and watched customer after customer pass me by and the staff just looked at me, they had plenty of time to look up and tell me that the lineup started at the cash register. When I got to the cash and explained to the gentleman about how the sign is placed at the end of the line and his response was "it's complicated" and then he laughed.. I didn't find it funny one bit and then informed him that it doesn't take very long to move the sign and again his response was "it's complicated I know it should be moved" with an even bigger smile.... Because I was here to judge the food (really) and not the crappy staff responses I placed an order for the most simple thing on the menu, chicken pad Thai.. nothing more nothing less. So I waited some more...and some more.. Then when I received my order It had nuts poured all over my pad Thai, not once did the staff inform me that peanuts would be dumped into my meal nor was a sign posted that this would be done automatically. Thankfully for this establishment....I do not have an allergy to peanuts and if I did I would have no problem contacting my lawyer. CHICKEN PD THAI: -Cheep portion amount of actual noodles -Veggies in top we're freezing cold -Chicken portion was portion was poor -Sauce used to marinate precooked under portioned tasteless chicken was good. -Lime was also added without to meal without permission. Overall this place is all show and no go, if you can't even make a proper chicken pad Thai then you shouldn't be making food AT ALL! The staff must have known about the sign and have it setup that for personal entertainment, I've worked in many restaurants myself over the years and this is definitely something I would have laughed at. But Yelp didn't exists then like it does today. Smiles I would avoid this place at all cost, it's not sour grapes it just the reaction to really bad service, it's 2018 and you can't avoid this kind of bad service anymore. Clearly the staff doesn't care about the product they were putting out and sometimes that can be the result of bad management, which I don't think was the case here. Poor staff judgment is to blame for this one, hope the laughs were worth it. If you really want pad Thai I'd google maps the closest Thai Express (which is a 1.4km walk from union station, just north on University Ave) Oh and the thin plastic bowls are a nice touch too so when people are running through a train station trying to catch a late train because they spent 20 minutes waiting at the wrong sign while getting Horrid service they won't burn themselves or someone else.... no no... when it slips out the hands and hot scolding food fall everywhere it's a good idea... Union station was better off without this place :)

Sophy P.

Loved the fact that this place was located right underneath the station. So convenience. I raced to catch my train and missed it so had time to spare. Decided to grab something from Bangkok Buri, they had quite a long line but it was going quickly and they had about three cooks and three people pushing, taking orders and packing them. Super efficient and QUICK! Bonus: Food was amazing. Pretty expensive but well worth it considering they make it as you order so it's fresh and piping hot. Even with the super fast service, the dish still loooks like it was professionally prepared. I was wowed. Can't wait to try their other dishes. Happy Eating Fellow Yelpers!

I'm bummed!! After a huge hypethe food court in Union station finally opened and I was super excited to have yet another amazing choice of food vendors near where I work! So one fine day I decided to get some food and share it with a co-worker. We got their famous chips, tofu pad thai and veggie green curry along with white rice. The pact I tasted a lot like any other pad Thai you would get from a takeout place and did not hold up to the infamous Legacy of ksr. The green curry was marginally better but the worst for me where the Buri chips. not only were they over fried and tough but they were also under seasoned and tasted stale. The service was also exceptionally slow. The reviews are correct when it comes to confusion around lining up - while it's a new setup and the customers don't know which way to go the staff does nothing to direct them or even try to help them. Not sure if I would give them a try again because not only was the food underwhelming but the wait was exceptionally long. yes they do smile and say sorry for the wait but what does that do for you? I would rather walk and get real KSR take out versus eating here.

Chicken Pad Thai
Vincent R.

Bangkok Buri is another vendor that has opened in the Union Station food court. There's been lots of talk about it being the best Pad Thai in the area, which is high praise considering the myriad of Thai Restaurants downtown, so it was the target for one of my lunch expeditions. But first a word of warning to those interested in trying it out: the lunch line-up is long, like exceedingly long. Not only is it a big confusing where to go (go to the cash register), but the line cooks seem to work very slowly. From the time of ordering to picking up my dish I had waited for over thirty minutes, which is simply not acceptable for a take-out location. It didn't help that while waiting I saw a bunch of customers line up at the "waiting for food line" and waste their time. Now the food itself is actually good; think Thai Express, but higher quality and more ingredients put into the dishes. I ordered the chicken pad thai which came neatly prepared in a small container with cabbage, carrots, peanuts, bean sprouts and a slice of lime. The portion was pretty small and certainly eye raising for the price, but there was a moderate serving of chicken and noodles that ended up being surprisingly filling. The chicken was just okay, but the sauce used for marinating was perfect. Overall the dish was very flavourful for a takeout joint, but nothing special compared to some restaurants I've been to. You should probably tell the cashier about your food preferences too since they will dump all the peanuts and ingredients in without asking. Three stars. It's better than the average Thai Express, but for the wait time I'd rather just go sit down at Sukhothai or something instead.

After a busy day of sightseeing, we wanted some yummy food to take back to our hotel and eat in the…read moreroom. After looking on Yelp, we decided on Pai Northern Thai. The menu had several vegetarian/vegan options plus all other options. I ordered online and it was ready when we got there. I asked for some bowls and cutlery and got some. Everything was packed well and still warm when we got back to our room.

Yummy Thai food with fresh ingredients…read more For two people we got the papaya salad w/dried shrimp, Khao Soi w/shrimp, and pad gra prow w/crispy pork. We ordered medium spicy for the papaya salad and it only had a slight kick. I wished the salad portion was more as it was gone pretty quickly. It comes with shrimp chips, pork rinds, and 2 small bundles of rice noodles. The dried shrimp in the salad was very chewy though, which made it a bit less enjoyable. I ended up picking them all out. We ordered spicy for the pad gra prow but it wasn't spicy at all. I think you can ask for the Thai chilis/ Thai chili fish sauce thing on the side but we decided we were fine with no spicy. Unfortunately the crispy pork was not crispy at all and was also very chewy. Overall it was still delicious! The Khao soi mightve honestly been the least favorite, but it was still good. It is on the sweeter side. The egg noodles were cooked al dente and had a nice chew. Sometimes when I get Khao soi it ends up being too heavy or creamy, but the curry for this one was thinner and easy to eat. The shrimp was the best part - super fresh and bouncy. In the end I thought the portions and quality were good. The service was also super nice, and it was impressive to see our waitress cover so many tables. The restrooms were also clean.

I'm definitely coming back here!…read more We ordered the Tapioca dumplings, the beef messemen curry, and the mango and purple sticky rice. Wow! It was all so tasty. The tapioca dumplings are unlike anything I've tasted before. They serve it with a side of lettuce, mint and peanuts. I liked the dumplings better without the sides they served! The lettuce and other add ons dim the flavors of the dumplings. So I prefer just eating the dumplings straight on. The Messemen curry was so flavorful and the beef was so tender! I'm a big fan. If you're a fan of Thai curries then you'll definitely like this! The Mango purple sticky rice dessert was also really tasty! It had a tasty coconut sorbet and it all went really well together. Service was good, food came out quickly, vibes were good. No complaints here!

Having visited Lao Lao before, I had the perfect excuse to return: catching up with dear friends I…read morehadn't seen in quite some time. Unfortunately, the day took an unexpected turn when I had to go to the hospital, and for a while I thought I wouldn't make it at all. As a testament to both the kindness of my friends and the exceptional staff at Lao Lao, they were able to accommodate us even though I arrived nearly two hours late on a busy Saturday evening. Originally, our table was only reserved until 8:00 p.m.--the exact time I finally arrived. Thankfully, with the help of our incredible server, Savanna N., everything worked out. Her professionalism, warmth, and willingness to help truly made the evening possible. More than anything, I hoped the wait would be worthwhile for my friends, who were visiting for the first time. I'm happy to say they absolutely loved it--especially the outstanding hospitality and customer service. A huge thank you to Savanna and the entire team for making us feel so welcome. As for the food, every dish was delicious. Nothing disappointed. The papaya salad was such a hit that we ordered it twice. The Beef Massaman Curry, Crispy Lao Spiced Chips, Banana Leaf Steamed Fish, and the seasonal Vermicelli Noodle in Chicken Coconut Red Curry were all exceptional. Although it had been about a year since my last visit, I was delighted to see that Lao Lao remains consistently excellent in its food, quality, and service. Bravo!

I would just have to say that we are glad we decided to walk through the doors. We started off with…read moreappetizers of the fried pork and grilled curry squid and the dipping sauce was amazing just like home. We were unable to take pictures because they we're eating so fast. We decided to order just a couple main dishes and they were also amazing. The flavors from the curry noodles were very rich and creamy and absolutely delicious. The drunken noodles had a perfect blend of spices just like Hometown and we will definitely go back to try this and the rest of the stuff on the menu again. The service was amazing, we were greeted by the host with a warm welcome, and the waiter was also very kind. It is a true authentic Thai restaurant and the food and flavors are expected and reflect from the culture. Ambience is just like the islands of why the title of the name is there and the decorations are amazing. Let's talk about dessert, the pandan toast was out of this world. Top two with the coconut ice cream and the decorations and the display was already worth $1 million photo. The flavor was not overwhelmingly sweet but Rich at the same time. Thank you for your hospitality and kindness and delicious food and we will definitely be back soon to try the rest of the menu.

Service was excellent and quick - we were there maybe 45 minutes total…read more Food was amazing!! I eat pad Thai in every city I visit and this may be the best yet since I first had pad Thai in college many many years ago. Been chasing that epic pad Thai for years and think I finally found it. Amazing depth of flavor. Partner got the Islamic noodles, which he thought were excellent as well, rich flavor and very well made. Would happily eat again. The only issue I had which made me knock off a star is that the glass and silverware had an odd scent, like the smell your glasses have if there's food stuck in your dishwasher filter -- if you know that scent you know what I mean. Just smelled funky and honestly the smell was ruining the taste (smell and taste are so closely linked) so I drank out of my own water bottle I had brought and grabbed a plastic fork to eat with which did solve the issue but still...less than ideal
