Walked in right after arrival at Calgary Airport and 1hr before closing. Ordered immediately and food prep was fast. Good-to-Good food, not great but will satisfy you. Friendly staff that allowed us to stay a little after closing time so our Uber ride to hotel arrived. Thank you friendly staff. (Sorry no food pics since we dug right into our plates)Definitely will return and allow more time to savor the food (and order fried banana dessert).

I've ordered takeout occasionally in the last few years for convenience, and because there aren't too many Thai places around the area. Food is quite flavorful. However...Every time I ordered, the lady who took my order through the phone would try to upsell me and insinuate that my chosen dish was not as good as the pricier option she suggested. She would reiterate that when I pick up in person. That's fine - it's mildly uncomfortable if anything.The latest time I tried to call for take out, it took three calls to get through (with internet dial-up tones the first few tries). When I went to pick up,their payment system refused to work with multiple attempts with each of my credit cards. Every time it failed, the lady looked at me with an accusatory expression saying "How come?" with a side eye, as if I were the problem (my cards worked before and after this occasion, and were not the problem). Finally the "boss" came out to reset everything and it still didn't work. I paid by cash. The "boss" explained how the machine shares a line with other uses to reduce overhead. That's fine - it's a business decision I can understand. However, the lady's tone is aggressive, accusatory, and managed to ruin a takeout (!) experience with her attitude and snide comments which were absolutely uncalled for. I could only imagine what I dine-in experience would be like. It's a shame because their food is decent, but the "service" ruined any chance of me ever returning.

I ordered vegetarian stir fry and specifically said I am a vegetarian. When the food arrived I asked if it contained fish or oyster sauce and was told that it contained oyster sauce - to which I said it is not vegetarian. The chef came and argued vegetarians eat oyster and I wanted to walk out - the chef said you are picky and you can go !!! ( he had the gall and Ill manners ti utter this to a patron) - my companion told me that he also said that I could cook at home !! Shameless and rude . By the way how can stir fry be served within a minute of being ordered ? Rotten place to patronize where the owner is foul-mouthed . I want to give negative star rating

AMAZING lunch service! It comes quick and fresh. The taste and quality of ingredients is beyond compare. If you love Thai food, then you'll love Thai Boat!

i was craving for padseeyou and went here. the serving for the noodles is little although the shrimp are big and a lot. The taste is really good. 4/5 for that. On the other hand the spring roll is too small and mostly just noodle and carrot no meat at all. it’s still fresh and crispy so 2.5/5 and lastly The cashew and basil(pork) 4/5. This is really good. i love the freshness and crunchiness of the dish but the coconut rice isn’t that good. taste like more just steam rice. overall the place is clean and love their quotes on the wall and paintings. overall the food is great

The service was terrible. The server was rude and didn’t explain menu items properly.We ordered the Pad Thai and it was awful. The chicken was rubbery and the dish had no flavour.We tried telling the server and she walked away from us and then a moment later, the chef came out and started yelling at us, saying there’s noting wrong with his food.He went on to say that people complain all the time and it’s not his food, it’s the customers fault.What a joke of a place. Gone downhill.Don’t waste your time or money.

Excellent food and good service.

Excellent stuffed chicken wings, panang curry, and noodles. My favorite Thai restaurant by far and one of the best restaurants in Calgary. Lovely, friendly staff.

Great staff. Good food. The portions were pretty small but tasted delicious.
