The Best Thai Restaurants in Toronto
The best Thai restaurants in Toronto deliver a riot of flavours and textures in every fragrant, bold, mouth-watering dish. With offerings that range from crowd-favourites to lesser-known gems, these spots thrill diners — whether they're looking for familiar comforts, looking to be wowed, or are secretly hoping for both.
Here are the best Thai restaurants in Toronto.
Long before Michelin recommended this spot (with locations in the Entertainment District and near Yonge & Eglinton), locals were crowding in for a taste of chef Nuit Regular's Northern Thai food. Made to taste like home, every dish Regular sends out is sweet and salty, sour, spicy, and entirely habit-forming.
Also from Chef Nuit Regular, this restaurant is rooted in Royal Thai culinary standards and the tasting menu at this Entertainment District spot is populated by a wealth of novel dishes. Take it all in with a 7- or 12-course parade of flawless Thai bites, or visit on weekends for à la carte brunch.
Piles of local ingredients transform into Thai delicacies at this casual Danforth East restaurant. With a menu that jumps from appetizers and noodles, to rice, grilled mains and desserts, there's something to satisfy a world of cravings — be they for fragile Spring Rolls, Green Curry Beef or delicate Mango with Sweet Sticky Rice.
Kingston Road in Scarborough is home to this regional spot with a menu inspired by Thailand's Sisaket province. Built from a cornucopia of house-made ingredients, dishes here are extroverts flaunting a range of delicious traits. Whatever you order — from fiery Papaya Salad to rich and savoury Prad Prik Khing — it's hard to go wrong.
Named for Thailand's largest market, this restaurant (with locations in Scarborough and Richmond Hill) tempts diners with a menu padded with home-cooked options. Fresh and fragrant dishes — some mild, others strictly for the heat tolerant — include Larb Kai and Tom Yum, street-style Jatujak Pad Thai and chef's special Som Tum Kai Yang.
