Regrettably, our experience at this restaurant was disappointing. The ambiance lacked vibrancy, likely contributing to its emptiness. Service was sluggish, and our server seemed disinterested. Felt like he's didn't even wanna be there. We ordered a ginger hot drink, he told us it's not sweet, but it was overly sweet, rendering it undrinkable. The dishes fell short as well. The fried chicken and pork buns arrived cold, and the papaya salad was substituted with carrot, which was very unpleasant. The sizzling beef dish was particularly disappointing, with tough meat and lack of flavor. Overall, our visit was a waste of both money and time.

I had a pleasant time at The Jungle. The food (especially appetizers) was good and was served at a reasonable pace. It is a lovely place to bring a date for dinner; I personally recommend skipping the dessert though as it was nothing special.

I think the overall rating reflects what this restaurant used to be and not what it is today. I had the drunken noodle and the crispy pork and both were delicious. Have been coming here for years and the new chef in the last 6 months has made a huge positive difference. Great vibe, great service, feels like a traditional Thai pub and I feel very welcome. Highly recommend for a fun night with friends, a good date spot, or a place to come and get great food and friendly service.

Greeted and seated, right away by friendly and warm staff. Ask when ready to order at our pace. The appetizers were good, and mains were delicious, especially the naughty pig & sexy little duck. Be back for more and gladly recommend to friends.

Regardless of the recent business name change. I really look forward to coming here when I can. I live 40mins away so I can't come as often as I would like. But this is the first time the food left us disappointed. Our sticky rice was so hard I had to use a knife to cut it. Plus the container wasn't full. $4.50 and it resembled a single spoon scoop of rice. Thats alot of money for something thats relatively cheap to source. My red curry was thankfully delicious... but the coloring of it didn't do much for the appetite. It was some beigey looking swamp water. Plus go easy on the bay leafs. No dish needs that many Bay leafs.

Worst response and worst uber eats I have received. Food was luke warm and the quantity for a main meal, which cost $25, was so small even in the smallest containers available. I called to discuss and the response was that's our standard size. The soup was the cheapest and it was so much more substantial than the overpriced mains. It was less than a appetizer size. So rude and never again! I wish I checked their rating before ordering for my sick wife.

The food here is amazing and my favourite dish was the crispy wonton, very flavorful! Love the cosy and warm ambience. The servers were friendly. Happy customer and will definitely be back again!
