Just Thai

The previous visit I thought this place was okay. But after my latest visit, I will not be returning. I find the food to be mediocre, and there are several other similar options nearby that I could go to for the same price point.
This visit, I came with a group of 4 others. Someone ordered a Rickard’s or Keith’s Red. As we were watching, the beer head was scooped out with a spoon? Then, he got served some sort of pale ale. When he pointed this out, the server didn’t want to believe him, but still replaced the drink. When she was pouring him the right beer, she once again skimmed off the top with a spoon.
Then, same diner, ordered Green Curry Beef. He got served some chicken dish. This time, the server was adamant that he ordered chicken. Even though he had made this big production of choosing a dish when he had ordered. Specifically saying things like I want a beef dish, how spicy is x beef dish, etc. Again his food was replaced. Server tried to excuse her mistakes by saying she was new. Which is totally okay, but really, if you’re not paying attention, don’t accuse the customer of trying to cheat you.
Lastly, I personally ordered the Thai Spicy Noodle dish. The first bite was sooooooo extremely hot that I burnt my esophagus swallowing it. (I went to the doctor, I’m not exaggerating). I was extremely hungry. But I waited, pushing my noodles around so that the heat could evaporate. 30 mins later, when everyone (including the guy who had to wait for the proper dish to be made) finished their meals, my dish was STILL steaming hot. I don’t know what kind of sorcery was used on those noodles, but they were completely inedible during dinner (when I would like to eat them) and instead caused me injury.
So yes, this might be a one off situation. But paired with my previous mediocre experience, this will lead to me to never coming back.

This place was horrible. I ordered a Malaysian fried rice (not even a Thai dish)… The rice was dark green… Pretty sure they used stale basil to make it. Oh lets not forget that it was bitter! My friend ordered a pad Thai, and it was soggy with sauce, which tasted like BBQ dipping sauce. The server couldn’t even tell the difference between two of our fried rice, even though one was green and another was red… Overall DO NOT go here. It cost me 15 $ for one rice dish that I took two bites from.

I’ve been here MANY times over the last 10 years and last Saturday we came in to JUST THAI for a nice dinner in the neighbourhood — we ordered Mango Salad, Spring Rolls, Green Curry Chicken, Sticky rice with peanut sauce and Cashew Chicken. As well as two ice cold beers. Our server was just great very attentive, the restaurant wasn’t very busy, there was a couple of other tables with customers. After a few minutes our mango salad and spring rolls arrived and they we’re just yummy! Then our entry’s arrive and were very good. I had the cashew chicken and it was actually exceptionally good. My friend had the Green Curry Chicken and she said it was good, even though she didn’t eat it all (to be honest she was a little jet lagged).
For in restaurant service I give JUST THAI — 5 stars… but ordered mango salad and cashew chicken yesterday for delivery and having to wait over two hours it arrived ice cold (even though the restaurant it 6 blocks from my place)…yes I should of walked and picked it up in retrospect… don’t order delivery as it’s delivered by JUST EATS and their customer service sucks !!! And for that I actually only give 3 STARS
Note to JUST THAI owner — consider having your own delivery driver or stop delivery because the service you use is terrible and my fear is you will start to loose customers!

Been here a couple of times due to convinence.
pros
huge portions
very cheap
works with tasteaway so u can double up discounts
cons
quality is not the greatest.
overall
not bad for cheap eats.

The food here was great. I popped in for an early dinner and the place was fairly empty. I ordered the Thai Basil Chicken with rice. The sauce was just right, not too heavy or spicy and the portion was large. I love Thai food and this place is one of the best I have had.
I will say the service was a bit slow because they were busy with takeout orders. I would go back.

This place was bad… I ordered the pad Thai and it tasted burnt from being cooked in a burnt pan. My friend ordered the basil beef and it was overly salty. We ordered ice water and only got regular water. Lastly, the waitress was overly attentive — I know this sounds crazy of me but she just gave me my food and within 2 mins she checks to see if everything is ok. I didn’t even get a chance to eat it yet! A for effort though but the constant interruption was annoying when I was trying to have a convo with my friend.
Would not recommend — mostly due to food not so much service, that’s just me nit picking

I’m confused why some of these reviews are negative. I’m from out of town and am obsessed with Thai food. This is one of the best Thai restaurants I’ve ever had. Everything was so flavorful and the sauces were all a delicacy. I’d recommended this place to anyone. Even the iced tea was superb. The service was good too.

Just thai is literally just thai. Nothing special, I’ve liked food court thai food better.
I ordered a chicken curry pad thai and my sister ordered a chicken pad thai.
It was quite oversauced to the point where my sister stopped eating after 5 bites or so as it tasted like ketchup.
My curry pad thai was better than the regular pad thai as it didn’t taste like a mouthful of tomato sauce, but I couldn’t finish it either.
Portions are huge, but we won’t be coming back. We ended up taking the leftovers home to add more noodles in both pad thais.

Really bad. The pad thai was flavourless, with a few small pieces of chicken. The green curry was just bad, no flavour and frozen vegetables. Will not order from here again.

Came here with 3 coworkers and my loved one. Service at the beginning was good. Waiter came and seated us quickly, offering the menus and asking if we would like to start with some drinks before we order. We ordered food about 10 – 15 minutes later, first complaint is that the place wasn’t very full, it was our group and it took the bartender so long to make 4 drinks, I noticed he had to refer back to the drink menu to check what went into the drink… uh hello? Did you not memorize this small menu during training?! Jesus. Anyways, I ordered the shrimp fried rice… then dinner went sour… waiter brought out the rice, I was just about to dig in when he approached me and said «Oh, they forgot the shrimp in your rice.» I was being cool about it but holy shit! What part of SHRIMP fried rice did he not undertstand? Oh well. It was brought back to the kitchen to get fixed. Throughout the dinner, he made no attempts to even come check up on us… umm, rude much? Instead he stood around at the bar, chatting with his other coworkers. Maybe 30 – 40 minutes later, as all of us were wrapping up dinner, one of my coworkers discovers a random hair in her rice or curry (we have no idea where it came from). Obviously, we complained to the waiter to which he replied «Would you like another bowl of rice or curry?» FUCK NO. She asked for a discount off her dinner instead. After he cleared our dishes and left us to chat for a bit, it took way too long for him to notice us flagging him down to get our bills. UGH.
For all that, this will be the first and last time we ever come here.
Food got fucked up, waiters and waitresses unattentive… how does this place stay open?

Never order delivery from this place.
I live not too far away from them, and after an hour and a half of waiting (when the wait time is supposed to be 20−30mins), I had to phone and ASK them what was going on. To which they responded; «Oh. oh yeah. You did order something». Not even an apology.
And the two times I decided to order and pick up, when I got home, they always get it wrong. And I always have to go back.
Their food isn’t too bad when they get it right. But it’s always a gamble. You have a 1 in 5 chance of mistakes, failure to deliver, or incredibly soggy soup-​like coconut rice.
I’ve given up on them after my last experience because I sometimes I just want food delivery to go as it’s ordered with no problems. And as for takeout, I dont want to have to phone them, tell them the order is wrong, or weird– and have to go back.
It could be a nice restaurant if it weren’t for such stupid things.

Popped in on a Thursday for lunch. The place was fairly quiet, but it was a late lunch (about 2:30pm)
After reviewing the menu, we both opted for the Spicy Basil Chicken, which came with Jasmine Rice and a Spring Roll. My dining companion opted (for a nominal $ 1 charge) coconut rice as opposed to the Jasmine Rice. I ordered a diet coke, he ordered a jasmine tea.
Jasmine Tea — rather than tea leaves steeping in a small pot of water, it was a tea bag floating in a coffee mug. Strike 1
Spicy Basil Chicken — although the meat was dry, the vegetables were cooked perfectly and the sauce was flavourful. Weird thing though… I don’t eat onions and my dining companion loves them. He had 0 onions in his, mine was loaded with them. 0 on the «spicy» scale… if this is spicy then McDonalds ought to warn their customers that Big Macs are spicy.
Coconut Rice — far too sweet… he had a mouthful and didn’t eat any rice after that.
Jasmine Rice — sticky and cooked perfectly.
Spring Rolls — they had a curry in the filling… the flavour did not go with the sweet dipping sauce they provided. Strike 2
Service was fantastic. Our female server was welcoming and very polite. Restaurant was spotless although décor is a little dated.
So…would I go back… maybe…to try something new. I wouldn’t drive out of my way to come here.

–Sub par pad thai
–hot and sour soup was ok
–friendly staff
Recommdation keep walking

Just ordered there for take out, and meh is about right.
Über watery sauce that hinted at flavour. It wasn’t awful but it’s kinda like trying to get to an itch by blowing on it. It’s something, but ima still itchy.
Food was fast, and cute bartender was friendly.

Great! nice atmosphere and a great front window view of Church street — a nice menu convering the main Thai dishes — all of our orders arrived fast, hot and really tasty. We had a really cheerful and fun server to boot — excellent.

Highly unethical, serving expired meats. It doesn’t matter what you order (chicken, beef, pork or seafood) because they all look and taste the same anyway. Unless you’re very desperate or no other choices, you have probably tried them all by trying one bad dish.
Their services are not impressive either. Forget about this restaurant or good luck! By the way, I actually want to offer no star. It seems one star is the minimum. Okay… okay… you have it… here you go… one star…

They call themselves «Just Thai», literally. That is the NAME of their restaurant. Then why would they have Indian curry dishes on the menu? And why would the chicken curry dish I ordered have breaded chicken? Never in my experience of eating Thai food have the curry or sauteed dishes consisted of a breaded protein. Kindly, they took the dish back and made it without breading. I have to give them props for that.
(It’s only happened once before where I ordered a sauteed dish that turned out to be breaded chicken and they threw a fit when I sent it back. Fuck me right? Then put it on the goddamn menu.)
Anyway, rice didn’t come with the dish so that was an extra charge. Fine. It was Coconut rice and it was delicious. The dish itself was an interesting combination of curry and coconut milk with mango and avocado. And as the Mussels appetizer was delicious, it consisted of a lot more vegetables than I expected and fewer mussels. But the mussels were huge, so I guess it evens out.
It’s not terrible food, but it’s not traditional Thai.

Just Thai was just awful!
Ordered a dirty martini received a martini garnished with line… No olives.
Calamari was our app — it was average.
The pad Thai was unrecognizable. No sprouts, scallions, nuts… Bland, stuck together mess.
My friend had a curry dish that he left on the table.

OK Thai Restaurant, Average Dishes, but not outstanding. Was Disappointed that they did not have Thai Tea.

Below average Pad Thai. Disappointing. service was attentive. Too bad, be nice to have good Thai in the area, will look elsewhere.
