Stopped in because we walk by every week and had never tried. Don’t be fooled by the appearance. We ordered the dinner for two and everything was delicious! When you say spicy they listen! The peanut sauce for the fresh spring rolls is spot on. The shrimp stir fry and chicken curry did not disappoint. Everything came out fast and fresh, we will definitely be back!

Went for dinner here for the first time tonight. No complaints. Service was excellent. Fairly busy but food came out quickly. A friend and I split the pineapple curry and chicken pad thai. It was delicious. I am quite picky when it comes to thai food. This is definitely one of my favorites. I will be going back soon!

Coming back from a trip, nothing in the fridge, my partner and I went for an early diner around 6pm on a Saturday. The place was half full, not specially good looking. We ordered a green sweet hot curry(Gaeng Kleow Wann), and a BBQ beef salad(Yum Neua Yang), with regular rice. The food came quickly and was so good! The curry was excellent, quite spicy even though I asked for it mild. The salad was very spicy, but fresh, with good beef. So we’ll come again to try other delicious thai food!

Thai? Yes. Delicious? Hmm. Averagely so. Since I broke my ankle my dining mainly revolves around delivered takeout. And mostly Thai takeout at that. In the last month I’ve tried quite a few different Thai places — and this one is currently at the bottom of my list. I ordered online, which provides you with the option to add in any requests and a handy estimate of when your food will arrive. I usually order through SkipTheDishes because I find their online ordering system better, and usually it’s their drivers. This restaurant has it’s own drivers, which means there’s no GPS tracking. As requested, the driver phoned when he arrived at my apartment building(just after the latest estimated delivery time) and I went downstairs to meet him. When he was nowhere to be seen, I called him with no answer and had to stand out by the road on crutches. He picked up the phone after 5 minutes and he’d gone to the wrong address. I did get my food, but I had to wait outside for more than 10 minutes — normally not a big deal but my broken ankle wasn’t happy about it, especially when I’d noted in my order that I’m on crutches. I tried the shrimp salad rolls, chicken fried rice, a beef stirfry and the coconut rice with mango. Overall I found the food a bit average in taste — plus less veggies in the fried rice than the other Thai places and no mushrooms in my beef stirfry — but they left in the onion that I requested to have taken out. I also had a really sore stomach after eating the food. Plus the coconut rice with mango was just mango. The restaurant notes that fresh mango isn’t always available, so I requested to only have the dessert if fresh mango is available. Looks like they decided this meant I only wanted half of the dessert without checking. I contacted SkipTheDishes about the delivery and dessert issues, who in turn contacted the business. It took almost a week for them to get back to me while waiting to hear back from Delicious Thai and the restaurant refunded the dessert. Overall. I found the service lacking and the food quality really wasn’t worth it. Especially with so many other good Thai restaurants in Calgary.

Never again. The food was two hours late. The chicken and shrimp dishes were reversed. The food overall was super average. It’s a shame because I had previously enjoyed Delicious Thai. Oh well, certainly not the only Thai in Calgary.

Team Fam came here for one last dinner and we ordered the following: Pad Thai with Chicken Yum Neua Yang(BBQ beef salad) Stuffed Chicken Wings Khow Pad with Scallop(Scallop Thai Fried Rice) For a group of 3 this was a little much in having both the fried rice and Pad Thai. The Pad Thai was easily devoured though since it had a nice sour zing and the noodles absorbed the flavour well. I wish the noodles were a little chewier though. The BBQ Beef Salad reminded me of a Chinese dish. Here the salad had a nice sour zing similar to the Pad Thai but lacked a savoury taste inside the beef that I usually like. The Stuffed Chicken Wings came exactly as advertised. I loved the work that went into the stuffing which is a mix of meat, herb, and rice noodle. This is definitely a great appetizer to order if you are in a sharing mood. Last but not least we had the Scallop Fried Rice. This was an okay dish with scallop I found quite dry. I find it’s rare to get chewy scallops in Asian restaurants so this is a simple carb dish you can order if you want to get stuffed or otherwise likely leave with leftovers if you have a small group like we did.

I heard a lot of good things about Delicious Thai, and the meal was very good.

Food was very well made, quiet little place, was not busy at all over the lunch break. Would definitely go back again… can’t complain about anything really. Just had the pad Thai and the dragon Thai noodle meal.

Yikes, if I had read the prior reviews earlier, this would’ve been worrisome lol. Had to make a trans-provincial order for one of our national clients, who had requested Delicious Thai. So far, no complaints. One of the rare restaurants in Calgary that have their own drivers, without using 3rd party ones. bonus that they deliver for lunch too.

I have eaten many times at delicious Thai. That I had to learn how to make curries myself to my own spice ness level. I don’t agree with Mike A. I eat curry four to five times a day for a few years now for lunch or dinner alternating between different pastes, and I’m lean. I think coconut milk and Thai food In general is very healthy. I’d eat everyday at delicious Thai if I could afford it. I really loved all the dishes I tried.

We order out quite often(I’ve actually never been in the actual restaurant!). It’s always speedy and very delicious. Their Chicken Massaman Curry is some of the best I’ve ever had — and I’ve tried it everywhere.

I ordered take out from here through and it was a breeze. In my humble opinion it does not hold up to my all time favorite Thai restraunt but was pleasant and experience and I will eat here again in time. The food was FAST and I mean less than 20 minutes from order to my front door, I was very nearly caught with my pants down. My consisted of Coconut sticky rice, Red Duck Curry and Yellow chicken Curry. The rice was rice nothing special, the Duck curry was fairly tasty but lacking in the most important ingredient — The Duck. I was overwhlmed and disapointed by the excess of duck fat, skin and grisle; there was a distinct lack of actual meat. I realize duck is fatty beyond compare but it was deeply unsatisfying. The Yellow curry was a spectacular dish wich I greedily consumed with gusto, the spice was right and the sauce blew me away . My GF ordered the Pad Thai with chicken and despite touching her upper limit for heat was delicious. Better than most — Look elsewhere for good duck.

just average — thai food should really zing … lots of flavourful ingredients mean that it should have depth and freshness. This place is far too tame, too sweet and not great. Pad Thai — the signature dish of every thai restaurant — should be their best thing. Here the noodles are too sticky and over done, there is the sweetness of peanut butter in there, and only a few shrimp. Portion sizes are too small for the price and the service is middling. I wouldn’t go again

Before I went to India, I went for Thai; Delicious Thai!(pun INtended). Delicious Thai is a small out-of-the-way place in Kensington that does a stand-up job at being, well, delicious. I was impressed that I could choose how spicy I wanted my dish, that the rice wasn’t overwhelmingly large and the staff friendly. There are Thailand paraphernalia scattered around the restaurant so you can learn about the country who’s cuisine you are sampling in case your dinner partner is uninteresting or you’d like to be inspired to visit Thailand. Paraphernalia aside, the dishes I tried were quite flavorful and well balanced; something I expect from Thai food; and overall I found Delicious Thai to be quite charming and a nice place to pop in for a decent dinner or lunch. I would eat there again! T.

Drove up to this place last night and decided to order the Pad Thai for take out. Oh how many times we have passed by and I said to myself, «Self, I wonder how this place is?» Shrimp pad thai was ordered, 3 chiles! HOT! It took 5 – 10 minutes and brought it home piping hot. The portion size was just OK, perhaps below average. 4 shrimp included and yes, I always count how many I get to decide the quality of the dish for the price. This pad thai obviously had peanut butter in it which is A-OK as I like a little sweetness to the dish. The noodles were thicker than normal, like fettucine. Fresh lime and peanuts added and an oddly healthy portion size of finely juliened carrot. Too much of it that took the place of where more pad thai could have been. No leftovers as I normally have with this portion size and if I ever order again I will ease up on the chiles from here — I was up most of the night with heartburn! My bad! Value OK, service good, food average!

I came here for the first time after a Market Collective with friends because it was convenient. I guess I should not really judge the food too harshly as a vegan as there were only a couple things I could eat. As I wasn’t extremely hungry, I settled on salad rolls, which were modified to be without meat and etc. However, I recall it costing roughly $ 8 – 10 dollars for two veggie salad rolls that were cut into pieces on a plate and was kind of unimpressed. Although, the plating was real pretty. Also, aesthetically it kind of made me depressed in here. Not the best of lighting, and the long white tablecloths were really gross. I still remember their pseudo satin, pilling fabric with dirt all over them because they were clearly too long. This really grossed me out because obviously I am a snob.

Sabahat tells no lies. The green curry here equals the best I’ve ever had. If coconut milk didn’t have 550 calories and 250% of my daily saturated fat allowance per freaking *cup*, I really would eat this every day. I appreciated that choosing ‘medium’ spicy resulted in a curry that you would get at other places by choosing ‘hot’. The pad thai is also worth mentioning, not because it was yummy but because it tasted different than ones I’ve had at other places. Gooier and maybe sweeter.

I’m a big fan of Delicious Thai. Every time my friends and I want to go for a low-key dinner, and don’t want to venture too far, I take them to Delicious Thai. Here are my favourites at the restaurant: –Green curry chicken. I love love LOVE their Green curry chicken. Absolutely amazing sauce, and I love the array of vegetables in the curry. I am pretty sure I can literally eat it every single day. — Papaya and shrimp salad. So unique and flavourful and light and fresh and tasty! — deep fried ice cream. Mmmm!!! Try it. You have to. Their service might be a bit slow sometimes because the restaurant gets packed pretty quickly. I went yesterday on a Monday night, and every table was occupied, and there was a steady stream of people coming in the entire time I was there! Even though the service might be a bit slow, it is very courteous. Every time I have been there, I have been greeted warmly and politely. I love this place, and recommend it to everyone. My favourite Thai restaurant in Calgary so far.

Just returned from Thailand and have decided that I LOVE Thai food! Sweet, sour, salty and HOT, O My! So needless to say, I was on the hunt for some decent, ketchup free, Thai food in Calgary. Went in on a Tuesday night for dinner with my good friend A. Dining room was sparsely populated but very inviting. We went through the menu and noticed how flexible the choices were. With any of the curries, we could pick our choice of protein(chicken, beef, pork, shrimp etc) and adjust chili levels. We decided to go with the Chicken Panang Curry, my all time favorite, «Pla Rad Prik» Deep Fried Fish with Sweet Chili Sauce and coconut rice. Mmmmm… so good, the curry was wonderful, fish fried perfectly and portion sizes were more than enough for two. Next time I’ll give the mango sticky rice a try!

Having once lived in Thaland I’m on the lookout for decent Thai restaurants wherever I go. This little gem is not to be overlooked. The Bangkok-style dishes prepared at Delicious Thai are wonderfully authentic, prepared fresh, reasonably priced, and are consistently good. It’s a small venue, so may be full at peak hours. I’ve discovered it in the past year, but in the 4 times I’ve walked in I was always able to get a seat for 2 or 3. Whether you know what Thai food you like, or not, I suspect that picking a random item from the menu when you dine would result in a delightful surprise. Don’t miss the mouthwatering and light PoPiaTod appetizer(deep fried spring rolls), or the wonderfully pungent, spicy-hot and sweet Green Curry, or the fragrant, nutty Panang Curry. Vegetarian dishes available.
