Highly recommended.

The atmosphere in this restaurant is very nice for a small place, gives you a warm Asian feel, very authentic. The waitresses are nice and friendly. The food is great, if you like the authentic Thai this is one of them. ( I've been to Thailand 4 times and know Thai food.) Their food here is authentic not overly sweet like a lot of places that I tried before. I love the freshness of their spring rolls. My favorite is Panang Curry chicken. Many options available for vegetarian like my friend. Highly recommended.

Worth a try. Offers authentic thai food, nothing overly spectacular but decent enough to crush that thai cravings.

I've driven by this place so many times and today I finally decided to pop in for a solo lunch. I feel very conflicted writing this review so let me start with the good.

This place is definitely family owned and run, which gives it a level of charm that most restaurants don't have. I overheard the bubbly waitress shevon (sorry for the spelling) greeting a customer by their first name. They... more

Looking for authentic Thai food in Brampton is quite a task. Usually when you find a place its usually a mixture of Vietnamese/Pho/Thai or Chinese/Thai. Not to say that this isn't good...its just not the same as a place that specializes in traditional Thai recipes. On recommendations for Yelp GTA Elites..I was directed to Freshly Thai with a guarantee of authentic Thai recipes and preparation.

Came here for lunch with one. We ordered a Pad Thai and green curry (I think it was)? The food was good though I've had better. Service was attentive and the server was really nice! I would return for a quick grab to eat (if I'm in the area) but not very often.

Parking can be a nightmare, I had to circle around the block twice before I could find a spot.

EXCELLENT Thai food. EXCELLENT customer service. A family business operated by three lovely sisters couldn't be more pleasing. The food is superb! I have been going to this restaurant for 3 years or more and have to restrain myself to once a week. They have a lovely outdoor patio for summer dining. This is a 5 Star PLUS restaurant.

Came here with my family. We ordered the freshly Thai platter (the spring rolls were delicious!) as well as the honey garlic beef, chicken pad thai, delicious scallops, fried fish with tamarind sauce (can't remember the name) and a fish curry. We asked that the fish curry and scallops be spicy, but they were quite mild. The honey garlic beef however was really spicy! My brother couldn't handle... more

I have been a loyal customer to this restaurant since it opened, but I am sad to say the service at my last visit is the reason I will never return. I ordered takeout for my family at least once every week and thought I would bring some of my friends from out of town to try the food I've been raving about. I brought in 10 potential new customers and was just shocked at the service we received.... more

Was delighted to find a Thai restaurant and have eaten here a few times. The restaurant is quaint and nicely decorated. There is only one lady ever working, waiting on tables, ringing up take-out orders, running back and forth from the kitchen, etc. She's friendly but ridiculously frazzled. Aside from taking my order and dropping off my food, I never see her again. Don't expect another shot at... more

It taste like hospital food. No taste or flavour. The worst Thai I have ever tasted. I ordered the spring rolls and they tasted like they were previously frozen. The cashew nut chicken was watery and taste was poor.

Food and service was wonderful at this restaurant. Located in the heart of Brampton, we didn't expect to find authentic thai food. Parking is located at the front of the restaurant or on the street. There is also a parking building located behind the restaurant. We ordered the "freshly thai" platter to start and everything was very fresh and made to order. The chicken and beef skewers were... more

I really like the food here. The service less so.

Food's priced well. It's flavorful and fresh. When I ask for spicy, they (usually) make it spicy. I really enjoy rice paper rolls/salad rolls, and I like theirs bunches! They make them just how I like them. For an entree I usually get a noodle dish, such as pad seew or basil noodles, but I dig the green curry as well.

The service is super... more

Had the chicken pad Thai; it was really great and flavorful. And the portion is huge, so bring your appetite!

The Satay chicken was really great as well, lots of great flavours.

Fair prices and friendly staff. During the day it is not busy so I got a seat right away, and the food came really fast too.

I LOVE this place!! This is my favourite Thai restaurant literally in the world.

Family run and very friendly, helpful service. All of the curries are super delicious that we have tried so far. I love the tom kha soup, which has a coconut milk broth, fresh mushrooms, and cilantro - YUM! The fish lover dish (Pla Rad Prik) was absolutely scrumptious, think fried crispy fish drizzled with a spicy... more

I pass by this restaurant many times in the past four years and I never tried it out. So I decided to grab dinner there last night. Not bad. I ordered pad Thai, and pineapple fried rice. The pad Thai is pretty good, I think it's better than Thai express. Pineapple fried rice on the other hand was a bit disappointing. The rice was overcooked and mushy. But I wanted it spicy, and the lady was... more

I went to this restaurant with my boyfriend to have a nice meal earlier this week. We ordered the Freshly Thai Platters for our appetizer and there was a bug in one of the Freshly Thai Rolls. No apology was given until several moments later and when the apology was given, it was very insincere. We unfortunately decided to stay... more

Cute decor and space. Friendly service. Food was ready quickly for take out and the price was reasonable. I like spice, but I found their dishes to be a touch hotter than typical North American thai fare... Including their chicken pad thai. Be warned if spicy isn't your thing. Amazing mango salad tho! Definitely worth a visit if you're looking for a fair priced dining option with a bit of... more

Delicious - great for lunch

My first experience with Thai food was at Freshly Thai.

Fantastic for vegans/gluten free
June 26, 2013

Really great food for all. Several vegan dishes and menu has gluten free dishes as well, as I needed both options. They make their own sauces as they don't like to use preservatives. They can modify most dishes to the way you want...ie less spice, more spice. We had a dance recital at the Rose Theatre and it was only... more

Not good Thai
February 25, 2013

I had high hopes for this place but was disapointed. The service is good and the staff are friendly. The menu is sizable, the portions are generous but the food does not have the depth and complexity of good Thai food. The balance of flavours is missing and the over use of certain vegetables is a bit odd.

My fiance and I are clearly on a mission to test every gluten free offering in the Brampton area. After a quick google search we decided to check out Freshly Thai. We ordered over the phone (take-out) and arrived about 30 minutes later to pick up the food. The location was a little difficult to find and had a tiny parking lot (I think 5 cars max!) Thankfully a space was open so we could quickly... more

Surprisingly expensive; merely adequate product

Given Freshly Thai's reputation here on TripAadvisor, I expected higher quality and better value. Having lived in in the Far East (Singapore) for a few years, and having traveled extensively in hat region of the world, I have fair notion of what counts for quality cuisine in Thailand. The entrees I purchased at FT were bland and uninteresting; dull seasoning,... more

First off, the cuisine is Thai (as you might expect), not Taiwanese as Tripadvisor lists.

I was very pleasantly surprised at how romantic this small restaurant is, it is a real treat to have a nice restaurant in Brampton.
