Orchid Thai

Been here on a number of occasions. The atmosphere and the décor are fantastic.
Food always comes hot and fresh and consistently delicious. Red curry chicken, and mango salad are must haves. Reasonably priced and always leave happy.

Has turned into one of my favourite go to takeout restaurants.
Previously, I use to go to Thai Basil, but as they’ve become too expensive I find myself going more to Aurora now.
Highly recommend this place!

First time visit to Orchid Thai. Ordered the shrimp tom yum soup which I found had lots of intense flavour, and the papaya salad which was mixed with a perfectly balanced house dressing. Will be going back very soon to try more!

Ordered lunch take-​out yesterday with 3 other co-​workers. We weren’t much for variety, one of us has pad thai, and three of us had spicy noodles and chicken, all came with two spring rolls each.
Pros:
–Spring rolls are great, crispy and hot.
–Spicy noodles were moderately spicy, but not overwhelming. The dish came with red pepper and green beans.
–Pad thai looked okay, not too red which typically means they’ve loaded up on ketchup.
–The food was ready fast (10 mins).
–The portion was big for lunchtime!
Cons:
–Please, dear lord, UPDATE YOUR WEBSITE! The hours of operation are incorrect (we called at 11, when the site said lunch starts and phone just rang and rang), the format for the lunch specials is really difficult to take in, and it just needs an overall revamp.

We got the pad Thai here and fresh spring rolls and it was absolutely delicious! The décor was a little over done but regardless, the food and service were amazing.

Frequent this place at least once a month. Really like the food though portion sizes are not the greatest.

My first time here. They have good and friendly service. Tea is Ok. We enjoyed the Pad Thai we ordered. We will come back again.

One of the better oriental restaurants in the north GTA.
Staff made the experience extremely enjoyable.

Excellent with allergies. Delicious food and attentive service. My third time here and will be back again.

I visited this place with my friends last night. I didn’t have much experience with Thai food before so I was a bit skeptical… However, the pad thai and the beef (can’t remember exact name) was delicious! The jasmine rice we ordered on the side made a nice addition. Also, the waitress was polite and friendly. It was a wonderful experience and I will definitely be going back!

The inside of the restaurant is designed to be tropical style, cozy environment really makes feel like you are dinning in Thailand. Their customer service is also great, considering it was our first time there, they have recommended lots of options in details. I personally am not a big fan of Thai food, there is that strange taste within the food which I dislike about, maybe that is why I am kind of disappointed at the food there, to be honest I think that the raking is a little too high for the actual quality.

The best thai food you will ever. It is consistently top — notch tasting food, with the friendliest staff.
The thai spring rolls, red curry and grilled chicken are too die for. And the fancy mock tails are tasty and worth the splurge for pregnant and non — drinking friends who are tired the usual drinks.

The reviews brought me here. The décor brought me to Thailand. But the food was nowhere near five stars.
When I got to the store front I thought the place looked a little tacky. But when I went in I realized it was very much like Thailand (and I should know, I’ve lived there). Even the server/​owner greeted us with a «Sawadee kap». I had flashbacks of Thailand and how much I missed being there.
We ordered Tamarind beef curry, mixed seafood basil and the four flamed fish. I even ordered coconut rice to make it more authentic! I was so excited!
The beef curry and the seafood basil along with the coconut rice were served.
I tried the beef curry and found it to be on the sweet side. The coconut rice was more like a dessert. It was super sweet. So the curry and the rice together made a big ball of sugar! I next had the seafood basil and woweee! that was extremely salty! Almost inedible salty! It had shrimp, squid, and imitation crab. Really?
The four flamed fish came. It was a deep fried fish fillet with the sauce on the side (as suggested by the waitress). And hell, the sauce was super sweet as well!
So unfortunately I do not have any positive feedback about this place. I did not enjoy any of the dishes I had. The only thing I probably did enjoy was the Singha beer. That was made in Thailand.

Love the food here! Real authentic in flavour!
The pad thai is my fav here and i usually get them to cook it with green curry sauce for a kick! Love!
Beef basil is wonderful also.
Lunch special is a good deal ends at 3 pm. Includes a spring roll n soup. Around $ 9
Owner is pleasant along with rest of staff.
Call for pick up 20 min advance.
Def try! You won’t regret!

My first time at Orchid Thai Restaurant and I believe it may be my favourite over Chinese Food. Atmosphere is relaxing, staff very friendly and helpful with menu selection. Both chicken curry and beff stir fry where delicious, each having their own marriage of flavours. Spring rolls were fresh and crispy.
There is nothing like the feeling when you have eaten good food and you are salivating for next time.

The best Thai in Richmond Hill/​Aurora area; I think it is better than the two on Major Mac/​Bayview area :)
We had following:
Fresh spring rolls: FRESH, too much carrot: S and the dipping sauce was a bit too sweet for me but it was fresh and yummy.
Golden chicken curry: everyone loved it, luckily we had some roti at home so that we could clean/​wipe out all curry sauce.
Pad Thai: ok, it was good.
Thai shrimp curry: I like this curry too but my parents preferred the golden chicken curry.
Papaya salad: a bit too much dressing; it was tangy, a bit spicy, crunchy and very refreshing. It is a much order item for summer.
Siamese beef: it was very favourable. The beef was marinated and came with the same dipping sauce as spring rolls.

Hands Down — best Thai place in the GTA! Tastes exactly how food does in Thailand. Lunch was barely $ 10 for soup, spring roll and main. The main options varied of a list of over 25 ranging from coconut fish curry, pad thai, spicy beef, green chicken curry, etc.
The owner was very nice and hospitable! I loved it! Highly recommend.

This Thai restaurant boasts an authentic taste, ambiance and nature that does Thailand proud. This restaurant is so good I had to write a review even though I’m living in Australia. It’s always the first place we go when I fly in.
Lunch is a steal with a soup, springroll, and main dish for only $ 9.95. You will often find yourself waited on by the owner himself who I’ve never seen without his full face grin.
Spicy tofu is a favourite of mine and a dish that I have never been able to find duplicated anywhere else. The pad thai is divine as is the mango salad, chicken cashew nut, green curry, panang curry… okay, I must say I’ve never had anything I didn’t like.

There are so many good Asian restaurants around York region, but this one is a cut above. When you first walk in the door, you can’t help but be struck by the level of décor. It is not high-​end, just oozing with personality and charm that augments the experience.
I started with the Lemon Shrimp soup, on another recommendation. Its light flavourful broth with perfectly cooked shrimp were gone in no time.
The main dish was the mixed seafood basil, a dish pleasing to both the eyes and the palette. The seafood was perfectly cooked, which is really the only thing that must be correct with seafood (other than freshness), but the sauce was amazing!
Service was friendly and attentive, the whole experience was great. I will be back!

Food is consistently good in Orchid Thai. My faves are Chicken and Shrimp Basil, Shrimp and Cashew Nuts, Pad Thai, and Curry dishes. They have lunch specials that come with soup and spring roll. Servers are very nice and cheery.
