Chaopaya Thai Restaurant

First time enjoying this lovely gem! The staff were so sweet, giving us a little tour of the old home and some of its history. We love that original details have been preserved. We ordered fresh spring rolls, coconut chicken soup, satay chicken, chicken and shrimp pad thai, chicken and ginger, chicken golden curry, and white rice. Served on gorgeous dishes with beautiful spoons, the food was amazing! Fresh, hot, veggies crispy, chicken tender, pad thai saucy but not overdone, fresh ginger...all of it so yummy! 100% going back next time we want Thai in Barrie!

Was craving Thai food and thought I'd give this place a try since it had such high rating. It was truly a disappointment. The portions are tiny - and flavours were way too sweet. Definitely wasn't authentic and they even served the pad see ew with he wrong noodles. The curry was watery and it was lacking in favour. Atmosphere was nice and honestly 3 stars because the owners were super nice.

First time trying this restaurant and I was very happy we did. The food and service was amazing even though we got there 30 min before the kitchen closed. The flavours of the dishes were all so good, I can see why they've been around for so many years. Looking forward to going back!

We went to celebrate a friends 70th birthday.First time there. I didn't know what I was missing.This place is fabulous. The food was delicious and the owner gave us some Thai chili oil to kick up the heat if we wanted to and let me assure you it will kick it up. To bad he doesn't sell it. We had calamari which was cooked perfectly and each of us had a different lunch special. No one was disappointed. Will definitely be back...

Khob khun ka ขอบคุณค่ะ A local, family-ran Thai eatery with under the radar solid tasting grub. I'd expect more tofu and broccoli from the Pad See Ew ผัดซีอิ๊ว, but what lacked there definitely made up in the authenticity through yummy flavor. The really lovely lady gave us a heads up their rice noodles (not the authentic fat wide rice noodles) were standard pad Thai noodles which I respect. The actual grub itself had a solid consistency and decent Thai cooking, don't be fooled by the aesthetics, the chow is groovy. Support local businesses!

The whole restaurant is well decorated with Thai art pieces giving a warm vibe. Food is authentic. Tom yum soap tastes especially good and golden curry is rich with coconut milk and not spicy at all.
