I had the lunch special Pad Thai. It was good. Flavorful. My issue is that the for the price the portion size was small. Even for a lunch size portion it was small. The dish came with a scoop of pad Thai, scoop of fried rice, spring roll, cheese roll, and sweet and sour dipping sauce. The lunch special was $9.50. The waiter was attentive. The atmosphere is ok. It’s an old converted house but the decor is nice. It does have an old home odor but it’s not horrible. My issue is mostly the price did not match the portion or what other restaurants charge for lunch specials.

It is is small, quaint, relaxed atmosphere which I thoroughly enjoyed. The Thai cuisine was really delicious. I had the Chu Chee which was Red Snapper and shrimp in a spicy red curry sauce with steamed vegetables and jasmine rice. My fiancé had the basil chicken and it was bombbbbb. Loved the flavors and the sauce. There was no need for salt pepper or condiments. Will definitely be returning.

What an awful experience. Had a take away, couldn't control or believe what I'm about to receive as "dinner": for the Garlic Beef dish, an Industrial thin and pale plasticky beef, swimming in a dull monosodium glutamate sauce. As the highlight of the dish, leftovers of rice noodles from a different dish I have not ordered. Yuck! For the Tom kha soup, a salt soup, that made my tongue numb. With something that used to be chicken once, and a few red pieces of what I'm guessing were tomatoes. I called and asked to cancel/return the order, their answer was to hang up on me. A waste of money, time, and energy.

I used to come here years ago before another great Thai place opened on Richmond between Fountainview and Gessner, but since that one has recently closed, I thought I'd give Thai Pepper another try. Sigh. I really wanted to like it as this was our go-to Thai restaurant so many years ago, but I can't give it any more than 2 stars today because the quality is just not there. We started with the papaya salad, which was tasty, but heavily overloaded with peanuts, to the point that they overpowered the dish. Next came the veggie green curry, which was far too much coconut cream and far too little green curry in the mix. I can honestly say that I've never had a green curry that was this bland. On top of that, the veggies were not fresh! The cauliflower had black spots on top (see picture) and the carrots were black on the ends! Yuk! Our other entree was the Bangkok Chicken Noodle, which was overly sweet and not very fresh either. Sadly, I can't say that we will be eating here again unless things change. To the chef, if you read this, please, please, please up your game. You have a unique opportunity to draw customers in now that the place on Richmond is closed. Step up and deliver and you will find that people will notice!
