The food exceeded my expectations. After reading the many negative reviews, I was not expecting to like my food as much as I did. Kraprow Kai Dao Chicken - from the lunch menu so it came with a spring roll. The spring roll was a decent size and crispy, crunchy and fresh tasting. The Kraprow Kai Dao chicken were small shredded pieces of chicken not ground, with green beans, onions, and chili bamboo shoots (tastes just like the jarred ones from the Chinese grocery stores). Chicken was served with over easy fried egg and rice. Coconut Chicken Soup - chicken, mushroom in a coconut lemongrass soup, fairly tasty. My only complaint was the Kraprow Kai Dao Chicken had an over powering flavor of the store bought chili bamboo shoots which even though I like it, I think is cheating for a restaurant. But I cannot deny that the food tasted good I guess. read more

I ordered the pad kee mao with chicken and my partner got the curry chicken. I thought that the pad kee mao was standard, I would have enjoyed it if it was made with broad noodles as opposed to noodles that you use for pad thai but taste wise was okay. The curry on the other hand was pretty good, I liked it more than my dish. This place was in my bookmarks and I am content that I was able to visit another spot on my list. read more

We ordered the red curry and spicy chicken. Both were terrible and we only ate a bit. Threw the rest away. Sauces were completely tasteless, watery, oily and chicken was chewy. Rice was hard. Containers were not closed tight and leaked. Everyone is saying to support local restaurants. How about the restaurants trying harder to make some tasty food! So disappointed in Sorn Thai. read more

The pad thai and spring rolls were okay. I expected more flavour from the meal, so was a little disappointed. I've ordered smoothies from them in the past, which have been good, but I am not blown away by the food offerings. read more

Would recommend it was delicious. even my picky eater enjoyed every bite. we got Green curry chicken glass noodles, sweet and sour chicken, garlic beef, chicken and shrimp fried rice, coconut sticky rice. Mango salad always a hit. I ordered take out. the only drawback was he beef was a little chewy good flavour though, and I found they didn't silk the chicken which was unusual for an asian restaurant. read more

This is a poor excuse for a Thai restaurant and it is should not be considered authentic in any manner. I really dislike posting negative reviews but this place was a huge disappointment which left me 'hangry'. During lunch time on a weekend, the only menu offered are lunch specials and it comes with soup or spring roll. I ordered the Pad Thai and it was just bad. It was not authentic and lacked the flavours I'm used to. I've been to other Thai restaurants and was impressed but this one left is wondering what it was. It's taste was too sweet and similar to ketchup. I left 3/4 of the dish there, paid the bill and left. Our server didn't checkup on us until we were nearly finish our meal and at that point, I found it useless to request another dish if a restaurant claiming to be Thai that cannot cook a proper pad Thai. I did give my regards about the dish to the server but that was the end of it. Never will return to this and I highly DO NOT recommend this place. There are many delicious options that offer authentic Thai food in Toronto and this is not one of them. read more

The reason I love Thai food is their clever use of different spices and herbs to create the 5 different taste sweet, sour, bitter, spicy and salty. Sorn Thai Restaurant is a sad example of Thai food. I tried: Sorn Combination Platter ($13.95) and Thai Spicy Noodle ($10.45) were both blend tasting. I requested to have my Noodle extra spicy and it still came out flat and one dimensional: salty. Serioulsy, my friend order a Beef in Oyster Sauce ($13.95) at that price point is insanely overpriced! The only thing good is their Singha and their polite service. Now I know why I haven't been to Sorn Thai as yet. And I sure did not miss anything. read more

3.5/5, +.5 for service Sorn Thai was listed as one of the best Thai restaurants in Toronto outside downtown. It isn't one of the most transit accessible places (subway passes underneath without stopping and nearest station is 20 min walk away), but it's manageable via the 97 Yonge bus. This place is extremely busy once past 12pm. I arrived at around 12:15pm and got one of the last small tables, but we were completely full by 12:30pm. They only have the lunch special menus available at that time, but you can ask for the full menu if needed (but let's be honest, the lunch special stuff has most of the items you need already). I ordered the pad thai. It's a Thai restaurant, why not? It also came with a piece of spring roll, which tasted quite good. The pad thai is a little different here compared to other Thai places; it has more of a lemon-y sour taste instead of the usual sweeter kinds that's common in Khao San Road, Sukho Thai, etc. Personally I preferred the sweeter kind, but that's just me. I still enjoyed the pad thai overall, and the portions here are larger than the ones in downtown! Service was great and efficient, considering the lunch crowd. They manage to adhere to everyone's requests including the take out folks with only 3 servers, which was quite impressive. read more

I had lunch Sorn Thai. I ordered their hot and sour soup, followed by a Thai green curry on rice. I would not recommend either. The soup had a few bits of red pepper, some hard bits of ?, a slightly sweet taste, and was hot (not spicy). The chicken in the green curry was dry and unpleasant. There was a bit of Thai basil in the dish, but not enough to give it any flavour. If there were any peppers or other spices, I did not taste them. I have been in the evening, and had better luck. My friend said his chicken pad Thai was fine. read more

Ok portions are smaller not as good as before they are good but need too get back to where the freshness was really good

Honestly, the quality has gone down over the years. I was there today and was disappointed with the quality of food. Sure, the service was great - 10/10, but the food was bad. Whoever is in the kitchen is not inspired, is probably underpaid and doesn't care. It shows. I'm never going back here ever again. You've lost a customer who loves Thai food, but this place is no longer an option for me. read more

A group of us came here for lunch. For a mid-week lunch, I was amazed at how busy it was. They have a fairly extensive menu, plus specials. Portions are big enough for two meals. I had the garlic chicken (one of their specials) accompanied by rice. The rice was rich, warm, fluffy grains for which I ordered a portion for the leftovers. The chicken,I initially thought, was way too strong but the next day it was everything I was expecting and more. read more

We love Sorn Thai! We especially enjoy their lunch specials. The staff are very friendly as well!

Solid Thai restaurant on Yonge. We searched for this on yelp and were quite happy with the results. We had a decent sized group here and so we had the opportunity it's to test a variety of their dishes out. Starting off with their Thai appetizer plate (satay, spring rolls, fresh rolls, fried shrimp, salad) with satay sauce and a sweet honey. Something for everyone and delicious. Then we went with their som tam (green papaya salad) it had a great tangy lime flavour well seasoned and a generous serving. We also ordered a chicken curry, Thai fried rice and pad Thai. Overall everything was fragrant, that great mix of tang, sweet, salty and definitely worth coming back. Pro tip*** if you like spice ask for some prik nam pla. Or nam prik. It's a great condiment to spice up your meal and add that extra zing for those who can take some more heat. Overall pleasant service and great Thai food! read more

Ordered take out from Sorn Thai. I have to say I was impressed with the flavours. The mango salad was delicious and had a good blend with peppers and green onions. The dressing was very light too. Good serving size. The pad Thai wasn't as spicy as I was used too, but had plenty of flavour and they did not skimp on the tofu as a protein. I would order from here again. read more

Not bad! The location is pretty easy to get to and plenty of street parking when I got here. Yelpers seemed to really enjoy it here so my friend and I gave it a try. I was a little disappointed with the service because it took a very long time to place our order, but we knew what we wanted pretty much after seeing the menu, They seemed to be a bit stressed out and it wasn't really that busy in there. It was a fairly quiet late lunch. Anyway, the food was pretty good. My friend had a yellow curry which tasted quiet average. I had the Pad Thai which didn't really give me the array of flavours that you'd expect from Pad Thai. It wasn't especially delicious food, but I wouldn't go to say that it's bad either. It fills you up, tastes good with no expectations. I wouldn't make the drive here again, but if you're in the area and want a quick thai fix, this is a good spot to try for yourself. Maybe they just had an off day when i visitted? read more

I'm both noob and picky when it comes to Thai food - I'm rarely displeased, but also rarely super impressed, and I guess Sorn Thai was no exception to this. I'm not in this area often, but found out about this restaurant on Yelp. It was small and cozy, but also nicer and classier than I expected on the inside with a small wine rack at the back, burgundy tablecloths, Thai statues/decor on the walls (but not in an overwhelming way.) I noticed a lot of older couples dining here, so definitely a more muted atmosphere but not super dressy either. Anyway, for a group of 3 people we ordered the following: Sorn Thai Combination Appetizer ($13.95) - comes with chicken satay (on skewers), thai cold rolls, spring rolls, two fish cakes and shrimp rolls. Everything here was pretty standard, but I particularly enjoyed the chicken satay, which for some reason had some kind of honey mustard flavour/sweetness to it. Pineapple Curry ($12.95) - Everyone in my group enjoyed this curry, and despite the fact that it was just the tiniest bit too spicy for me, I liked it mostly because of the pineapple. There were pieces of chicken in the curry, but I thought they were too tough and dry and probably just overcooked. Pad Thai ($10.45) - This pad thai was not the orange-y sweet-ish kind that you usually get at most place, but had more of a sour taste and was more yellow in colour. My friend who eats a lot of Thai food said she didn't really like it that much because she preferred the sweeter taste, but I thought this was okay. Similar to with the curry, I thought the pieces of chicken in here were overdone/too dry. My other friend also noted that "the ratio of noodles to stuff is not good" which I thought was a valid comment, as there really were a lot of noodles that I ended up just eating on their own. There were some peanuts in the dish as well, but to be honest I didn't really taste them at all. Either there were not enough, or for some reason they were bland, or the sourness from the noodles overwhelmed their flavour. Surprisingly this place got busy and filled up on a Sunday night. We were really lucky to come when we did, because we pretty much got the last available table. We actually requested to switch tables because were seated right by the door and felt chilly, but were told we couldn't because all the other tables were reserved. They were kind enough to close the second set of doors for us though so we were a bit warmer. Overall it wasn't a bad experience, a pretty decent Thai restaurant. read more

Unlike other Thai restaurants I've seen, Sorn Thai looks warm, cozy and has a traditional look which I like. The restaurant is spacious, clean and this place is a comfortable place to dine. The staff provides great service and they are very kind and efficient. Sorn Thai offers appetizers, soups, salads, noodles, rice, meat, seafood and vegetarian options. Their dessert options are limited, but satisfying. Also, they have a nice lunch special, but portions for the lunch special may be too small for some people. I've tried plenty of their dishes and loved all of them! The food has always been hot, fresh and delicious! I particularly enjoy their coconut chicken soup, cashew nut chicken, seafood fried rice and the deep fried banana with honey and more. The portions are great, and the prices are very reasonable- except for the appetizers; they're yummy, but for the price the portions are rather small. Personally, I really like Sorn Thai as it offers the exotic blend of Oriental and South Indian flavours with the aromatic spices of Arabia. If you're looking for tasty reasonably priced Thai food, and warm and cozy atmosphere with good service, I would recommend Sorn Thai! read more

Reliably tasty, high-quality Thai food on Yonge north of Eglinton...and they deliver too. Recommended dishes: Their sweet and tangy version of pad thai is always a go-to, but we also enjoy the hot & sour soup, the Thai BBQ beef (thinly sliced beef...bulgogi style) and the red curry chicken. Aroi mak! (That's Thai for "very delicious") read more

First visit to Sorn Thai. Staff are friendly and helpful. Restaurant was clean. Able to accommodate table of 8. Calamari was perfectly fried crispy on a bed of crispy white rice noodles. Fresh rolls decent tasting. Mango salad well marinated n zesty. We also had the basil fried rice, pad thai, Deep fried banana with coconut ice cream. Breading on banana tasted okay 6/10. Seemed to be a flour coating. I prefer it dipped them deep fried then coated with sugar and heated till they caramelized . Was still a good dinner. read more

Sorn Thai Restaurant - Thai Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Came here for lunch with a friend and they have some great lunch specials that are reasonably priced, perfectly portioned, and taste amazing. I got the pad thai which came out to 12.95 after tax and walked away feeling full but without the gross "I'm going to explode" feeling. I like this restaurant because I think it's super understated yet is still good. Their food isn't too sweet, salty, or sour and yet has so much flavour. You also somehow don't feel heavy or sluggish after eating it. Interior is kind of outdated and is decorated like a fine dining restaurant with the white table cloths and deep red table cloths but the service is great with the waitresses being super fast, kind and polite, and never letting your water get too low. Never been for dinner but if you're looking for a good lunch deal, I'd definitely recommend this one! read more

Given that Sorn Thai has been ranked as one of the better Thai restaurants in Toronto, I'm surprised it took me this long to give it a shot. We arrived around lunchtime on a Friday and the place was completely full. (Luckily a table quickly opened up.) Being the Pad Thai maniac that I am, it took me all of two seconds to decide what I wanted off the lunch menu. The dish is also paired with a choice of soup or spring roll and I went with the latter. The spring roll arrived a short time later and it was fairly delicious. It was fresh, piping hot, and greasy, and the flavors were good (if not outstanding). It did, however, come with a sweet, spicy sauce for dipping and I have to admit that elevated it substantially. The Pad Thai arrived soon after and I was impressed by the amount I received. (The combo costs $9.95, after all.) It's definitely one of the better variations of this dish I've eaten as of late, with the fresh-tasting chicken and surprisingly delicious tofu contained within a bounty of tasty noodles and a sauce that isn't too sweet (which is the prime problem with most Pad Thais in the city). My one complaint would be the total lack of spice. Pad Thai, in my opinion, should be extremely spicy but this wasn't even partially hot. I guess I'll ask for spicy next time, but this is something that should be asked of the customer when the dish is ordered. read more

While there are arguably better Thai restaurants in the city, Sorn Thai has great lunch deals, pleasant service, and a convenient location for those at Yonge and Eglinton. I've been a few times, most recently over the weekend where I went against my usual red curry order and got the Thai BBQ Beef and shared rice for the table. This was a generous sized portion that could easily have fed two people and came with a delicious hot sauce on the side. read more

A lovely spot for authentic Thai food in midtown! Came here with a few friends for a farewell dinner and everyone loved it! The staff was very attentive and patient. We ordered the appetizer platter to start; ingredients were fresh and well-balanced. I especially liked the fish cake and peanut sauce combination, savoury but not overwhelming. For the entrées, we decided to each order something and share (being a party of 5, we got to try out quite a few things): Pad Thai, Soya Noodle (Chicken), Shrimp Fried Rice, Pineapple Curry, and Tamarind Snapper. The portions were a bit small for 5 hungry guys, but the taste and the quality of the food more than made up for it. The noodle dishes were seasoned just right and had just the right amount of meat and garnish to complement it. Everyone loved the snapper. I'm usually not a big fan of seafood but the crispy skin enveloping the smooth and silky texture of the fish is amazing. Usually when you fry something you'd expect most of the water to be extracted and be left with a dry interior, but that's not the case with this dish! The sauce is a whole other story - it's sweet and savoury but not overpowering. It's perfect on its own or paired with steamed rice. Overall, we really enjoyed the food and ambiance the restaurant had to offer. I will definitely go again if I'm in the area. read more

Just a few blocks north of Yonge and Eglington is this little Thai restaurant doing what they can to serve up quality eats in a cozy environment. A group of us came for a little dinner and catch up last week and while I felt the service was a touch spotty and befuddled at times, I found the atmosphere and food to be as good as any other regular Thai spots I've visited. Was it the best? No. Was it the worst? Hardly. Food was A-OK in my books as I compared it to similar dishes I've had at other Thai spots. I went with the Mango Salad, the shared appetizer platter and the seafood salad, all of which was shared amongst a few of us and seemingly enjoyed by all. I was hungry so I ordered my standard Cashew Chicken done spicy and I really enjoyed it, I felt it had a decent kick to it in terms of spice and I really enjoyed the generous portion of chicken and the sauce. Like most Pan-Asian cuisine in the 416 and 905 areas, there are plenty of options of every style but few that really excel beyond the rest. I would qualify Sorn Thai in the average area but on the higher average, hence the 3/5 stars Eatcrest out read more

One of my favourite Thai restaurants uptown. Pretty traditional atmosphere (unlke many of the trendier looking spots in the area). Very good for all your standard dishes, like pad thai and green curry chicken. The tom kha gai soup is great too. Dishes have just the right amount of kick, without the "burning" spiciness. Good prices, especially the lunch combos (main course + spring roll or a bowl of soup). read more

This is my go to place for Thai food. The restaurant does not look much from the outside, however whenever you pass by this place on Yonge street the smell makes you drool, enticing you to go inside. Every time I'm here I see this lady sitting at a table close to the kitchen, making freshly hand rolled spring rolls. And let me tell you, they are delicious. The one fish that I akways order is pad Thai. You can always tell how good an Asian restaurant is based on their pad Thai. This dish is very simple but hard to get right with all the flavours that are involved. And let me tell you, Sorn Thai probably has the best pad Thai I've had in Toronto. I definitely recommend you to go there and try it out for yourself! Sorn Thai gets 4 stars out of 5. read more

My dad was in town and wanted Thai food so I came here based on Yelp reviews. We came around 6:45 on a Monday - so I guess before the dinner rush. This place was small but decorated nicely, clean and well kept. We were greeted politely and promptly. We ordered the lemon chicken soup, curry beef and I got the pad thai. Lemon chicken soup was the right amount of lemon grass - and a lot of chicken! A good sized appetizer for two. Pad thai was great - not like the americanized, super red/orange pad thai. It was big enough for two people to share. The curry beef on the other hand - the sauce was good but the beef was too tough. Could just be a one time thing. The waitress noticed we hardly touched the beef and asked us what's wrong with it. We told her and she, without hesitation, took the item off our bill. Will definitely come back to try more items - the Pad Thai is definitely worth coming back for. read more

BEST Thai place in me hood! I just LOVE this place! The waitresses are GREAT, the food is always spicy and I like the atmosphere.I haven't tried all the dishes (yet!) but I shor wood liketa! My friend and I had passed this place for about 3 years and NEVER ventured in......WTF were we thinking??? So, one cold gloomy night, we tromped in for a taste! I have been going back about every 2-3 weeks since! The girls are great- super big smiles and attentive. They also bring us out a big olde 'disha chili's to munch on with our "extra- extra-spicy please" food. I'm a pale-skinned, red-headed lass but I ain't joking when I say extra spicy please! At Sorn Thai, they understand that, hence the 5 star rating! But have no fear if spice ain't yo thang. I brought my Scottish bred, boiled meat and potatoes eatin' mama here and she LOVED it. Anything over a black pepper grind and she cannot handle the heat! Oh lordly.....food with taste and spicy!!!! Unheard of in a Scottish household! I always get the tom yum gai (chicken lemon soup). It is enough for 2 to share but sometimes I WANT IT ALL!!!! There are nice juicy chicken breast slices, fat mushroom and of course extra red and green chili's floating about in my bowl of bliss. My main dish here is the spicy chicken noodles ( with a generous sprinkling of freshly sliced thai chilies). The noodles are plentiful with onions, chicken, egg and herbs. I've also sampled the pad thai ( a little too sweet for my liking); the glass noodles which are grrreat!; the cashew chicken; the spring rolls; the app. combo platter; the coconut chicken soup and.......to be continued!!! People have mention the decor....I really don't care what has been hung on a wall,,,,,I'm there to eat and chili out (heheheh). I find the place super relaxing and peaceful...unlike dem trendy =noisy, newfangled places ya'll be yelping about! The best thing about this place is the BUZZZZZZZ I get from eating the chili's, on my long, cold walk home I feel like I'm hover-crafting down the street! read more

I ordered Pad Thai and Green curry, as recommended by the server. Pad Thai was alright, but definitely not amazing. Chicken in the green curry felt rather dry and didn't taste like out of this world - I don't think it meets my 4-star rating. I skipped so many restaurants to get here because of Yelp rating! I certainly won't go out of my way to recommend this place over others. To be fair, the servers were friendly and helpful, and they had a nice decor, but I'm not making another trip for food. read more

Really good lunch specials, and they are such big portions that you can eat it at least 2 times. Around $12 with tax and comes with a delicious/ greasy spring roll. I suggest the Red Thai Curry or the Pad Thai, both very delicious. Staff is nice as well!! Will return for sure. read more
