Thoughts:

There used to be another ‘new’ restaurant that took up this spot which no one went to and promptly shut down. In came this place and garnered more foot traffic. But we found it a bit lacking considering all the Thai food competition in Toronto. Went with parents since Good Luck Cafe had too long of a wait and they wanted to go to T&T after lunch. While it is in the busiest new Asian section of Fairview Mall, it seems to be the only restaurant with empty tables. The service was slow, even though there are quite a few servers on staff, and while the food did have flavour it was lackluster (although Simon disagrees). Menu feels complicated for the sake of being authentic. Decor is interesting, with colourful murals. Sadly, probably would not go back.
