We came for lunch because we saw on Instagram that they had a limited time offer Golden Songkran Tower for only $69. It was surprisingly not packed at all and seating was quite comfortable. I did have to find street parking since they did not have parking which was expected since it is around midtown. Service was exceptional, the waitress kept coming to check up on us and made sure everything was going well. The interior was nicely decorated with modern decor. So the tower came with Fried Papaya Salad, sticky rice, Laap Salmon, Garlic Pork ribs, Thai style steak, and Grilled Lobster. I thought everything was quite mediocre to be honest. The Papaya Salad was supposed to be crispy but it really wasn't and was more chewy. The flavor was pretty good. It had a good tang but the texture was just off. The Laap Salmon was decent but just a bit too tangy for my own taste buds. I think they overdid it with the lemon. They came with Taro chips and those were excellent and crispy. The Garlic Pork ribs was the only exception. it was phenomenal. It was very flavorful and fall off the bone tender. The steak was cooked well but it wasn't seasoned well enough. It tasted so bland. The Grilled Lobster wasn't fresh at all which was so disappointing. Overall, it was a pretty disappointing meal. I don't think I would come back again. read more

Not your typical Thai restaurant - they have so much variety and more interesting food choices than the typical choices. Their menu is pretty big, I would love to come back and try more things. I went on a Friday and it was pretty packed so make sure to make a reservation. Service was quick and friendly. The market at the front is also cute to check out. read more

We did the 3 in one couples retreat which was very relaxing and the food was delicious. They were next door to one another which was very convenient. I felt it was a little pricey but the service was wonderful. The selection on the three in one experience package was broad and allowed us to choose from a few options. The mango sticky rice and papaya salad were my favorite. read more

I came here for lunch. It was a very nicely decorated restaurant. Service was very good, the servers were attentive and the food was very good. Not a lot of parking around, mostly parallel parking and paid meter parking. The Thai milk tea and mango juice were very adorable with the teddy bear ice cube. Presentation was also very nicely done in this restaurant. I would come back. read more

Joined them for dinner on Valentines Day and it was extremely busy. It was nice seeing everyone enjoying themselves - tables full of drinks and dishes. Their food and drink menu is extensive, but with really good options. Presentation is great, they use nice cutlery, plating and drinks are shaped like teddy bears, etc. It's on the pricier side, but I think it's a really nice place for a special occasion or to bring a group of friends or family. I will say, experience is a bit of a stretch. They do have a snack market with lots of cool things like birds nest, but it's quite small and underwhelming. We also didn't try the massage parlour, so I guess the experience is what you make of it read more

A delicious spot for Thai food, great for sharing with a large party. It was a great experience from start to finish, everything down to their service was very attentive. Each dish had rich flavours that were well balanced. Can't wait to be back ro dine here again. Here's what we got: Crispy chicken spring rolls 4/5 - It's a great starter for the table. Something crispy to start off the meal, can't go wrong with that. Mango salad 4/5 - Refreshing, sweet and tangy mangos. Another great side dish for all the delicious yet heavier dishes that are to come. Beef pad see ew 5/5 - My favourite soya fried thicken noodles with Chinese broccoli and beef tenderloin slices. Had great flavour, especially the pieces that were just a tad burnt! Chicken pad Thai 5/5 - Well balanced flavours of sweet, savoury, tangy, and sour. The noodles were cooked perfectly, topped with bean sprouts and peanuts. Tom yum soup 5/5 - Heart warming, slightly spicy and tomatoey. A great warm starter to have for the table. Green coconut curry 5/5 - Packed with flavour, especially from the sweet creaminess of the coconut. Short ribs 4/5 - One of the few dishes I think I can skip on. It was good but the other curries and noodles really outshone this one. Tom kha 5/5 - An aromatic coconut broth simmered with lime leaves and had hints of lemongrass. This was creamy but yet refreshing from the lemongrass flavour. Crispy lemon fish 5/5 - Beautifully presented and great for sharing. Comes whole and is heated under to keep warm. A great lighter change from all the heavier dishes here. Overall it was delicious and super memorable with it's well rounded flavours. A must try, the added bonus is the second location in downtown Toronto as well! read more

To say that there are many Thai restaurants in the GTA is an understatement, so it takes a lot for a Thai restaurant to stand out against the rest. I'd say that Pii Nong is one of the best Thai restaurants in the city! INTERIOR: Very nice with modern decor SERVICE: Friendly, efficient FOOD: Love their menu - wide selection, vegetarian options, and has some of my favourites (pad woon sen, pad gra prow, pineapple fried rice). 1) Miang Kham Platter (royal thai platter style. deconstructed one-bite betel leaves wraps with butterflied steamed shrimps, diced shallots, chilis, red onion, ginger, lime, roasted coconut slices, homemade peanut shrimp paste sauce) - Flavour burst in your mouth (savoury, a bit sweet, somewhat minty from the betel leaves), with various textures (soft, crunchy, in between). 2) Pad Woon Sen (stir-fried glass noodles with eggs, tofu, napa cabbage, mushrooms, broccoli, green beans, carrot, tomato, scallion) - SO GOOD!! My favourite dish here. The glass noodles have a nice, chewy texture, and the veggies are fresh and crisp. We chose the tofu & vegs option, and I wish that they put in more tofu. Loved the variety of veggies here. 3) Grilled Pineapple Fried Rice (with shrimps, pineapple chunks, cashews, vegetable medley, curry powder, homemade garlic shrimp paste) - This was supposed to be served in a half pineapple shell... even though it came with part of a pineapple crown, it was served in a bowl instead. I liked the small and large pineapple chunks that came with it, and the large shrimps. But this dish was spicier than I thought it would be. 4) Pak Boong Fai Deng (stir-fried morning glory with soy bean paste) - Excellent accompaniment to all the other mains. I love morning glory (water spinach) in general, so this was perfect. read more

We ordered four items: Hot and sour soup (6/10), appetizer platter (7/10), khao soi (7.5/10) and pad thai (8/0). Their pad thai is comparable to the infamous Pai Restaurant. The only complaint is their portion size. If you live uptown and don't want to mission too far, I would recommend giving this place a try. Their price is on the higher end for thai restaurants, but you can rest assured that you're not being served food court quality thai food. read more

One of my favourite Thai restaurants. I'm usually not a fan of Thai food, but I loveee certain dishes of Pii Nong's. Their soft shell crab curry is amazing, their lamb is also really good, the pandan wrapped chicken and the Thai iced milk tea. I wasn't huge on their crispy honey ginger beef dish though. It was quite tough. I've been to Pii Nong a lot and some dishes are great and others are sometimes a miss. read more

Updated review. Was 3* when I first tried it still is 3* four years later. Food is decent/good but not the best in the city as others have said. Service is good and staff are friendly. My last meal was $89 tax and tip included for two people no alcohol. It's getting pricey. They do have some interesting special dishes, the grilled chicken with papaya salad, the soft shell crab etc. that you don't find at other places. But they are also pricier. As a local (walking distance) I find it a bit off-putting that it's always busy, lots of people driving in from other parts of the city. Seems like this has been happening because a real estate agent posted a YouTube video on the Leaside hood and she ate lunch there. Great for business, not so great for locals who just want to pop over to Bayview for a quick bite. Wishing Nothing but continued success for the owners but just warning everyone reservations are necessary on weekends. read more

The food we ordered was exceptional! The menu has a large variety of authentic Thai dishes to select and all then dishes we had were all consistently delicious. The servers are very kind and friendly, the atmosphere and decor is just right, not too fancy but chic. Love their deep fried mini crab, it was the highlight. The only down side was parking, it's difficult to find a spot especially on a weekend. read more

Amazing service. The staff comes around every few minutes to fill up water and check up on you. Absolutely delicious food. The Pad Thai is the best I've ever had including ones I had in Thailand. The laap salad is so refreshing and light. The Thai ice tea is cold and very yummy. The mango sticky rice is wonderful. The sticky rice used is different coloured based on the type of flavour (including Thai ice tea, pandan and mango) and not food colouring. Highly recommend to come to this place. Also, great value for weekday lunch specials. read more

It was late afternoon in between a late lunch/early dinner-ish time so we decided to try out this Thai restaurant. I really wanted to like this place after hearing how authentic the food was from other reviews but it did not really take authentic for us...Our food lacked a lot of flavour, green curry was a bit too watery, the Khao Soi had garnishes like pickled mustard green and purple onions that overpowered the curry taste, noodles were good but I've had better. The only item I would recommend was the Basil Rice Noodle (Pad See Ew?) that wasn't too greasy and had a good kick to it. Overall, the presentation of the dishes were nice but most of the items we ordered were not greasy but just lacked some flavour or seasoning. The service was amazing and that's why I still have them 4 stars. Thai Milk Tea was cute with the bear and tasted alright, worth the price though! Would recommend this place if you're looking for a simple date night or small gatherings, highly recommend trying their desserts! read more

This is a cozy Little authentic Thai restaurant. Service was friendly and sweet, the girl even can speak mandarin to recommend dishes to us. For two people we ordered too much foods. Most of them tasted very good, such as the seafood Tom yum pot, and the teddy bear Thai tea are very cute! Foods to avoid are : 1.curry pai Thai : not very impressed with the combination curry +pai Thai 2. spring rolls : it's very dry, for the first time I didn't finish the spring rolls Will come back to try more dishes! read more

Familyyy feast timeee - stopped by for lunch and instantly fell in love with the decor. It's a vvv long, spacious place with ample seating and even the silver (or should i say gold ware) matches the aesthetics! Once I saw beef ribs, OBVS we got 'em...even though we definitely should have tried some thai dishes smh. Also OBVS needed wayyyy more than one order to feel satisfied but this was a good lil snack (esp for lil fingers). Honestly, could have been a biiit more seasoned and didn't exactly taste like KBBQ (well duh, it's a thai place) BUT meat was tender and cooked vvv well. Service was A1 and the owner was even there to welcome us to his restaurant! They had maanyyy good recommendations and one we tried was this durain flavoured lil sticky rice tings for dessert. Surprisingly not that stinky or strong in flavour - the sawce we poured over them was nice, milky-like and a nice touch. The rice wasn't sweet and that lil durian flavour was like a sprinkle, not a kick. We'll need to ce back and try more dishes frfr read more

The food is good, but the service can be improved! The waiter was a little impatient with us asking questions. Maybe they were too busy

Came back for the third time! We went with our usual like our delicious eggplant dish. But we also decided to try the green curry and the chicken satay. You know that the chicken is cooked to perfection when you see it's glistening. The curry was delicious and the chilis added a nice kick. The satay with the peanut sauce was delicious. The consistency of the food is always great. The service is great with warm customer service. The servers are very friendly and kind, and makes sure you're enjoying your experience. The mbiance of the restaurant is great and comforting. Can't wait to come back and explore more dishes! read more

Dined here twice for dinner and both times were amazed with the food. Reservations are not a must but the restaurant does get busy fast around 6pm. Would highly recommend their beef skewers as it's so flavourful and tender. Each order comes with 4 skewers and is a must try! Their pineapple fried rice has generous amounts of pineapples and the rice portion is on the smaller end but the quality makes up for it. Another must try is their khao soi beef brisket, it's good for anyone who cannot eat spicy which options may be limited at a Thai restaurant. The staff are very helpful and friendly. Food comes out relatively quick and as the restaurant gets busy, it sometimes does take a little longer to flag someone down. Looking forward to coming back again. read more

first, food good and waitresses were friendly ,efficient, sadly mgr should work in a fast food joint .Wife's 65th birthday 'reserved was noted' but given a small wobbly table edging on stairwell upstairs to washroom and users . Purchased the top $130 seafood castle on too small table , while others with less had less problem at larger tables .Complained( why was it necessary ? ) and moved to another wobbly table. Instead of bringing new / clean plates mgr brought old used plates from table ? Special Birthday ? Not so much. Good food, bad experience. read more

We stopped by this restaurant last weekend and had a very good experience. 1) I was super impressed with the amount of gluten free options! 2) Now let's get to the review! We ordered the crispy beef and the chili cashew chicken to share with the multi-grain rice. The Food: The Crispy beef dish had the most delicious sauce but lacked vegetables (this was my theory when my friend ordered the dish because it didn't mention any vegetables on the menu). It was a little difficult to swallow with no vegetables and no knifes given but the flavours were exquisite and it was the first time I had crispy beef in years. The Chili Cashew Chicken dish was really good. It was loaded with vegetables and the sauce was yummy. This dish came with peppers, onions and chicken. It was the perfect level of sweetness and we would definitely order this again. Would We Return? Absolutely! - We would definitely order the chili cashew chicken again and we would probably get another dish with more vegetables next time like the beef broccoli or we will see if any of the set meals can be made completely gluten and dairy free. read more

Updated visit inside dining Sept 2022. They have some new menu items. Tried the seafood Tom yum soup comes in a pot, Thai grilled sirloin steak, beef pad sew, roti, spring roll.

As a restaurant opened by chef Nana of Khao San Road fame, I had good expectations when ordering from BuaBua during the start of the COVID-19 season. Sure enough, it didn't disappoint in the least. The street style pad thai was very good. The sweet and sour taste of their tamarind sauce really hit the spot, and the dish itself had a generous portion of noodles and chicken. What really stuck out to me were the other dishes I tried. Both the tom kha gai and khao pad tasted great. The spiciness and sourness of the tom kha gai was a big (and welcoming) contrast to the standard Thai curries you see everywhere. The soft shell crab in the khao pad was perfectly cooked and went well with the rest of the fried rice. I'm very happy with the food, and will surely pay them a visit once this COVID-19 situation wears off! read more

Decided to do takeout from this restaurant, we havrnt done much during covid. This place has taken over From Riz which was there before mad apparently is the same owners. I had chicken spring rolls, cashew chicken and crispy beef. The spring rolls were ok and very large. Wasn't nuts on them but not bad. The cshew chicken was very nice, I really enjoyed that dish. The crispy beef was very sweet and had a nice ginger flavour as well. If you don't mind sweet dishes you would probably like this. Ony the whole not a bad spot, I would go back again soemtime. read more

Pii Nong Thai - Crispy beef and cashew chicken.. - Thai Near Me - Oakville, Ontario

Pii Nong is truly a hidden gem. It is the best Thai restaurant in midtown Toronto and one of the best I've tried ever since coming here. Most of the foods here are excellent, but I highly recommend the following: som tum (papaya salad), namtok (beef salad), pad kee mao and mango sticky rice (its so good and addictive) The pad thai is a bit sweet for my taste. Tom yum soup is also quite flavourful but can be a bit more sour. The service and ambience is amazing. Food arrives very quickly and staff usually checks how you are doing. If the parking on bayview is full, there's a small parking just off hillsdale avenue east. read more

Decent Thai place! Spacious interior, friendly servers, yummy food. My friend and I went for lunch. They offer special lunch menu and dinner menu. Lunch is $14.99 to start, which includes 2 sides (some side are additional $). I had the Thai chicken soup noodles which was tasty with the fried garlic bits. Spring rolls were crispy and the beef skewer had nice spices to them. My friend also enjoyed her green curry. We ordered the clams to share as well, which came with more clams than I expected. For dessert we shared the mango sticky rice, which has one of the prettiest plating I've ever seen for this dish and it was tasty too! Overall, we both would come back as the experience was pleasant. read more

Spoiler Alert: this place absolutely failed my taste test. You can stop reading now but if you really want to know why, then join me and let me explain. We ordered two dishes - Pad Thai Noodles and Pad See Ew. I have had these two dishes many times so I know what to expect. In this particular case, both dishes were horribly seasoned. The two dishes actually tasted like it used the same sauce and it was bad. Pad Thai noodles were soggy and the taste was bland. Pad See Ew was just as bad. Really nothing else to say here. Maybe it was the assistant cook helping out but the dishes simply didn't cut it. It may have been an off night but I won't be going back. read more

We ordered 2 items for delivery so we cannot really judge this place with just that one order.

We went for dinner here on a Wednesday night and it was about half full, not too noisy and had a nice atmosphere. Here's what we got: - Thai Iced Tea Teddy Bear ($8) 4/5 very cute! I loved the bear. Not sweet at all just very light and they give you enough to pour 3.5 glasses full. The bear itself is made of thai iced tea and melts and makes the drink a slushy halfway through your meal (with some aggressive stabbing of the poor bear). Very cute and unique idea. To be fair not the best Thai iced tea I've had, not as thick and sweet as I'm used to but it looks very cute! Almost everyone in the restaurant ordered one lol - Grabong ($15) 3.5/5 good and crunchy but tbh Pai's is way better. this one didn't have enough red curry or lemongrass flavour. also it's served with basil mayo dip which was strange, I'd prefer a sweet chili or even plum or peanut dip - Chicken Gai Satay ($14) 3/5 not enough flavour besides the peanut sauce, also the skewers were really small (like a bit smaller than your full hand) - Grilled Pineapple Fried Rice veg ($19) 2/5 not flavourful, rice was literally white like no flavour was added, lots of veggies tho. Would not recommend - Crispy Lemon Fish ($20) 4/5 very flavourful, very crispy, good lemon flavour! Doesn't taste overly fishy. - Bangkok Street Pad Thai veg ($19) 5/5 best part of the meal! Delicious authentic pad thai, tasted very eggy and tamarind-y. I finished the whole thing! Perfect serving size. Be careful as I asked for it medium spicy and it was SPICY! And full of sliced thai red chilies omg, I had to pick them out. But it was so good I finished the whole thing! I never do that anywhere. - Mango Sticky Rice ($15) 4/5 VERY pretty presentation! The sticky rice comes in 4 flavours - thai iced tea, pandan, mango, and butterfly pea flower. They give plenty of sweet coconut milk too and the mango is shaped into a rose, and the rice is shaped into little flowers. I love the aesthetic appeal of this dish! Flavour-wise it was standard mango sticky rice, most of the rice tasted similar except for the thai tea rice - you can really taste the thai tea. Service was 5/5, she was very attentive, brought us water quickly and refilled it, took our order quickly, took our plates away, and never made us feel rushed even tho we finished our meal 5 mins before closing time. The restaurant itself is pretty nice too, nicely decorated so you can def take a date here or even have a nice birthday or anniversary dinner. Overall I'd rate the place 4/5 stars, the apps are hit or miss but the mains and dessert were good. I would recommend this place to others and would go again to try their other items, like pad see ew or curry fried rice. read more
