Juree’s Thai Place
The lush, tropical feeling of sitting in this spot is only matched by the classic (and off-the-beaten path) dishes coming from the kitchen. Juree Trentham has created a tasty escape, with all the salty, spicy, sweet and tangy flavours we love in Thai cuisine.

Thai Sa-on
Sure, there’s satay and pad Thai, but what sets this long-standing Thai restaurant apart (besides its surprisingly excellent wine list) is the sheer variety of dishes on the menu, which give us a chance to go beyond standard stir-fries and curries. Start with the appetizer sampler and explore from there.

White Elephant Thai Cuisine
It may be located off the beaten path, but White Elephant is worth the extra commute. With fresh ingredients flown in every two weeks from Thailand, there is a reason this is one of Calgary’s favourite places to dine.
