Sai Thai Kitchen - Brantford, Ontario

We were thinking of coming here for a very long time. But better late than never!!! Everything about this place was just a **chefs kiss.
The food was amazing, the people were amazing.
We got the veggie pineapple fried rice (spice lever 7) and the udon stir fried noodles (spice level 9 - I could even do a 10, lol) . The taste was superb, though I would love alil more quantity - because it was so good it got done so fast 🤭
My husband and I loved the variety as well and we will keep coming back for more.

Went for lunch after a farm activity close by (decided to visit this location as it has good reviews).

Atmosphere's great, cozy, and welcoming. Service's a little slow, wish it was a bit more swift.

The food - we ordered shrimp spring rolls, mango salad, chicken wings, tom yum soup (beef), pineapple curry (beef) with rice, pad see ew (beef), and a side of coconut rice & steamed rice.
1. Tom yum order was messed up, they brought out shrimp instead of beef. Had to ask the waitress to remake it, instead they just removed the shrimp itself and added the beef.
2. Pad see ew lacks taste and the beef, noodles, & veggies aren't propotional.
3. Curry was nice, only it was served on a shallow plate instead of a bowl, making it difficult to dine.
4. Chicken wings' too starchy - needs some balance in flavour.
5. Mango salad - great but the carrots' aroma are dominating the dish when consumed (feels like it's not washed well - tastes dirt).

Washrooms are clean and easy to find. Price for each dish too costly. Overall, it was tolerable but needs some attention to the food. Hope the restaurant would take this feedback well.

We have ordered take-out here several times over the years and the food has always been great. I have also dined in and the restaurant has plenty of tables available but it does get busy on the weekends. Their Pad Thai, Beef and Bok Choi, and Chicken fried rice are excellent. We also order the General Tao and it was delicious. Apologies that the photos were taken after we had already started eating the take-out food. The staff are polite and friendly. I would recommend this restaurant if you want to try some Thai food. You can order the spice level to your preference if you don't like your food too spicy.

This is supposed to be a Thai restaurant but everything we ordered had an Indian taste to it. The fresh shrimp rolls all fell apart and the rice paper was ripped. The beef stir fry had zero taste other than Indian spices in the sense of heat but no Thai flavour at all and the beef was chewy like rubber. They obviously do not know how to velvet the meat. The fried dumplings tasted like Papadam. None of this tasted like Thai

This is a nice low-key resteraunt. Chill vibe. Friendly staff. I found the Udon and wanton soup to be a bit bland. The broth lacked rich flavor complexity that I have become a custom to in my culinary travels. The Curry dish had great flavor and was the highlight of the meal. It had a good balance, and all the individual flavors came through. The price to portion ratio gives great value. You get a good amount for what you pay. Everything had fresh ingredients. There wasn't anything negative about my experience here. The three star rating reflects the contrast between comparable resteraunts Iv been to with similar menu items. I have to keep it 💯. It's affordable and gets the job done, but there was no wow factor and I felt what we got sort of fell flat. I will definitely give some other menu items a try in the future, considering there is quite a bit to choose from. Maybe I just haven't found their specialty dish yet.

The broth I got was super fresh and delicious! We love the place and I'm going to start going to it more. My husband is a friend, they loved it too. Service ok, they could make the little song a little louder 🙂

Amazing food ! My fav Thai place. I believe it’s a family run business . They deliver what they promise and they never promise what they can’t deliver . Lots of vegetarian options. Lot of space for dine in. In my last visit a man (owner I believe ) was at the counter his smile is was welcoming ! Their appetizers, curries, soup and dessert everything is a must try . I hope they don’t change .l

My fiancé told me we had to come here (she had tried it before and she loved the pad thai).

For the appetizer we got 6b grilled beef. We really enjoyed the peanut sauce and the beef was amazing 👏

We each got a pad thai (one chicken and one pork) and I have to say this is probably the best pad Thai in Brantford! I got the spice level at 2 and it was a perfect balance between the sweet and slight spice. Great texture on the noodles and wow caramelized onion with green onion took it to the next level for me! Fantastic!

We also split the 18a Won ton with egg noodle soup. Broth was great 👍 one of the best won ton soups I've had in Brantford. Noodles were perfect (not soggy at all) and it had a generous portion of meat/vegetables. Although we were so hungry/excited to eat we forgot to take pictures of the soup. My bad

We got takeout from here the next night as well so I'd definitely recommend giving it a try. Some of the best food in Brantford for sure and the staff were very friendly as well.
