Magic Thailand

My absolute favorite Thai restaurant in Winnipeg! Friendly staff and spot on authentic dishes packed with such delicious flavors. Moved away from Winnipeg but this place is on the list of restaurants to visit when I come. They ask your tolerance from 1-10 for spice so you can enjoy any dish regardless of tolerance. Options for meat choices or Tofu or shrimp for dishes if you are vegetarian. Good portions for the price.

Tasty, quick service and friendly staff make this an easy choice for good Thai food. We ordered two orders of Green Coconut curry soup and one order of Cashew Pad Nut w/ Beef. The soups were 5/5. Lots of flavor, good portions and just the right amount of spice. Wish it would have came with rice though. The beef cashew pad nut was okay but not that great and the beef was a bit dry. I'll definitely be returning for more soup!

Today I tried the Massaman curry and loved it! A couple weeks ago I tried the green curry and loved it! Service is incredibly quick and it takes less than five minutes from ordering to receiving your food (If you're ordering a single curry and rice). The taste is absolutely addicting, and afterwards I feel a bit ill. Not sure if that's because I've overstuffed myself or if the curry is a bit imbalanced. I do feel the curries should have more of an uplifting kick to them, which is what I was hoping the basil would do. Still, this is one of THE BEST Thai restaurants in the city. If you're on the fence, jump over and try these affordable, delicious dishes. Just make sure to order some rice with your curry! It doesn't come with it. Spice scale is 1-10. I really like spicy food and 7-8 makes me sweat and my nose leak without making the food unenjoyable. YMMV.

After hearing good things about this restaurant through my coworkers, my boyfriend and I decided to come here for dinner. We ordered masaman curry, pad thai and the red curry with fish. Masaman curry was good and the pad thai wasn't the greatest. I've had better pad thai at different Thai restaurants and even Thai Express. The red curry fish on the other hand was terrible. The dish looked great but taste wise, it was not. After a few bites of the fish, we discovered that it was uncooked in the center. The waitress took our dish back but a few moments after walking into the kitchen, we heard the microwave go on and off, twice. Shortly after the second "ding", our dish came back "cooked", but the entire dish had an unpleasant overcooked fish taste and smell. It wash hard to continue eating anything, so we paid for our meal and left. Although its an assumption that the fish was re-cooked in the microwave, the timing, taste, the smell and being one of the only two groups in at the restaurant, it seems likely that's how it was "cooked". I'm not sure if we may have just came late or it was an off day, but after our experience, we will not be returning.
