I would have loved to give this place five stars since it's so close to us. Unfortunately, either the quality control was lacking or I received the wrong order. This was our first time trying Wandee, as we have always gone to Siam. We ordered chicken satay skewers, crispy pork with broccoli and peppers, and a shrimp pad Thai. I specified in the instructions to please please make it extremely spicy. I only did this, let alone tried Wandee because I'd been advised by a friend that it can and has been done for them. We usually get 3* spicy at Siam, so I was expecting something maybe not as hot, but definitely not as mild as what I got.
Zero Spice!
The flavour wasn't bad (a little lacking in tamarind savouriness) but we had paired our other dish to accompany it to cut heat, and we really only order pad Thai spicy. I had to add my own red pepper flakes. And that didn't really help because they're dried and not cooked into the dish, so if you add too much you're not even getting infused spice, just dried flakes that pierce your gums (and it’s obviously not their fault that I added spice that pierced my gums lol). The pork dish was out of this world good, though satay skewers were slightly dried out but came with a really tasty accompanying peanut sauce.
With mostly every decent Centretown Thai place offering food at the same price point, I think I'll stick to Siam Bistro. They've never give us the wrong order or failed to apply our general requests. It's a shame because I really wanted to love a place that's walkable! Oh well.
Best Thai anywhere. We used to live downtown and got hooked. Then we drove from Barrhaven for it and now we drive from Richmond. Best food and great people working here.
Has potential but came up a bit short. Sauce flavours are nice, but the abundance of undercooked vegetables and canned corn/bamboo shoots take a bit away from the dishes. The proteins tastes dry and tough even in sauce somehow. At least the spice levels are reasonably accurate.
We ordered takeout for the first time tonight. We had the pad Thai, green curry and the cashew chicken stir-fry. All of it was delicious. All the items travelled well and the portions are generous. I can't wait to try them in person once we can eat indoors again. Awesome place, don't miss it.
Ordered take out from Wandee Thai this week. Highly recommend the dinner combos! For $20 you get super tasty spring rolls, lovely main course with rice, mango salad and delicious soup. We ordered two of the dinners and it fed us not only that night - but lunch the next day - and we saved the soups for supper the next night. The owners are an awesome couple - who delivered all this great food to our door for an additional $2!
