Mango Thai Restaurant

I dined in once at Mango Thai and it was great and today I ordered for delivery for a surprise for my Dad for his 86th birthday. Frank was extremely helpful to deliver the order before the restaurant opened for dinner service. My Dad said the food was “sooo goood! The prawns in the Pad Thai were so tender and the spring rolls with dipping sauce were great, everything was delicious. ” They wrote Happy Birthday on the packaging and added some dessert for free. Thank you Frank and to the chef for the fantastic service and wonderful food! We look forward to dining in next time we are visiting Langford. It’s so lovely to support local family run restaurants we appreciate you!

Excellent pad thai and thai food is my favourite. Service was lovely and personable, cheesecake dessert was gluten free and vegan friendly which was awesome. Support local!

Got some takeout for dinner during a business trip. Very friendly owner operators and tasty food cooked fresh and hot. Well packaged, portioned, and reasonably priced.

Ridiculous small portions false advertisement. Ordered a red curry from here for $20, it’s just a very small cup of soup with not even rice, never never coming back here again if this is how you do business, ripping customers off

Rely to owner: I ordered at 130pm for lunch, your lunch menu (clearly states curry with rice) is until 230pm.

My favorite local Thai Place. Really good yellow curry and Pad Prik King. Get it with a Thai iced tea.

The moment I walked in to this lovely restaurant, it felt like little Thailand. I was greeted warmly by one of the servers and got sat right away. I ordered a few items and also had mango sticky rice for dessert. And O. M. G.everything I had was up to par. I am very picky about trying new things but after reading all the good reviews, I decided to try. I can say I will definitely be making this restaurant my go to Thai place. And if I ever need to have a night in, they have a few delivery options which is perfect for lazy nights where I don’t feel like going out. Will be back sooner than you know it!

It was an amazing dining experience. We got to meet the owners, they’re really sweet people. Loved it here. Must try drunken noodles and Thai me up rolls
Would recommend this place

The manager/server was so polite and helpful. The food was delicious. I would definitely go again.

We had pad thai and it was ok but not as good as other Thai restaurants. The lunch serving included a spring roll but was quite a small serving.

Came in for a quick lunch and was not disappointed! Order the Green Curry if you go! It is heavenly. Frank was our server and did a great job.

The service was fast and the food was absolutely delicious definitely would go again and will recommend to friends

Im not a big fan of Thai food, but It was a great restaurant. The food was good and we went close to closing so it was pretty quiet, You can choose your spice level and everything. The only reason I took a star off of food, was because I'm personally am not a fan but if you do like thai food then you will love.

It's okay at best. Healthier than getting fast food for sure but overall nothing to rave about.

Fantastic food, wonderful & professional service and great value for money. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for good Thai food. Will definitely be back!

This is one of the only places that delivers to our house in the Highlands, and I’m so glad that they do! My husband and I order from them regularly. The food is consistently delicious and is always promptly delivered. I’ve experienced such wonderful customer service that I felt compelled to write a well deserved review.

Thanks Frank!
Merry Christmas

Love the food here! It actually tastes like the food in Thailand. Best tasting Thai food on south Vancouver Island.

We were first time in the city and were tired and hungry. We ordered food but it was a garbage. On pictures you can see my order “Fish plate” (I forgot exactly how it was called) but no fish here-lots of onion, few strips of yellow paper, 3 shrimps and lots of strange liquid/ substance. I am didn’t order the ‘Onion soup’, I was I expected to get plate with different kind of sea food. My son ordered the noodles with chicken and received plate which looked like somebody already eat it (see pictures). We left the restaurant hungry and disappointed and paid lots of money for this strange food.
Cocktails were good, the dessert wasn’t bad but very small for this price.

We don’t recommend this place to anyone!

Answer to owner- you can’t recognize your restaurant on my pictures or you don’t like plates with ‘delicious’ food on them?
If you don’t know what’s happening in your restaurant and what is the name of dish what do you offer visitors who can know?

Went here last night. I hadn't been since the first year they opened. Only because it's kinda hidden and tiny and I forgot!:/ Got the phad phrig khing (spicy green beans with pork) and a couple of Thai me up roll. Beans and pork were DIVINE! My mouth is watering again writing this! The rolls were delicious, but very greasy. Fryer needs oil changed, it's the only reason I gave 4 stars. But they tasted delicious! Glad I came back!

Nice takeout packaging. This is the first time I have eaten Pad Thai and it tastes amazing.

First visit:
The server was very friendly and the environment was great. Had tried more dishes. They offered mango sticky rice at that time, not sure if they still have it or not.

More takeout orders:
Delicious as always!

We ordered takeout tonight after a long day and it was AMAZING! So so yummy! We tried the “Drunken Noodles”, Spring Rolls and Red Curry… all tasted so good. Thank you so much for allowing me to have a night away from the kitchen.

We highly recommend Mango Thai!

One of our favourite restaurants! Delicious food and great service, always a great experience here. Hard to choose a favourite dish, but the Swimming Rama is definitely a favourite of family as is the pineapple fried rice. Highly recommend Mango Thai- you won't be disappointed!

They serve Chang beer here! Service is also good - Pad Thai however was a little disappointing but the papaya salad was on point! Went for the third level spice and still not really that spicy.

Hands down the best thai food place I have ever been to. The service is always great and quick. The food is always hot and flavorful and the restaurant has a very laid back ambiance. This is a great place for a anything, a family dinner or a date night!

The food was horrible, could have cooked it way better than what they are dishing out. Prices are outrageous for the quality of the food. All I can say is save your money, go elsewhere. The food is horrible, horrible, horrible, horrible. Whoever gave this place positive reviews do not know what authentic thai food is. So skimpy on the meat portions too, with a small scattering of vegis. I’d rather eat McDonalds than this stuff, and I don’t eat McDonalds. Never again. Pay attention to reviews. Lots of people are complaining about this place. I notice how the owners are full of excuses in their responses to negative reviews. Try listening, instead of defending.

I would drive an hour for excellent Thai food. Lucky for me that Mango Thai is conveniently located in Langford. I’ve enjoyed many delicious meals prepared by Chef Ann and have never been disappointed. Frank ensures their staff are courteous and attentive. I highly recommend this restaurant!

Great food, great owners. They make you feel that you are on the streets of Phuket getting some Cashew Chicken from a little hut on the side of the street, my favourite lunch spot.

Ordered pad Thai tasted really sweet like ketchup. Had only two bites and sent it back. After waiting along time. Was really looking forward to some authentic Thai food. Will not be returning.one good thing was the servers were nice.

Phoned in at 7pm and asked a few questions about the menu and told the host that we will be there soon. Got a phone call 10mins later saying that their kitchen has closed (they’re closing at 8). Very disappointed with this place without even stepping into the restaurant

Ordered dish on skip the dishes with you guys. Took forever to get here and was extremely proportion. Pathetic

Food was tasty.
But Don't pay for the side of prawns. 3 prawns for 4$ was a bad deal

The service was good but the food was underwhelming. The pad see ew used very untraditional ingredients and the pad Thai tasted like ketchup. The red curry was good.

My first visit was with my friend. We ordered, at our servers recommendation the “Thai Me Up” rolls appetizer. They were amazing! My friend had one of the curry dishes and I had the Ginger Thai. Both were excellent. Our server was quiet, unobtrusive, super efficient, very knowledgeable about the menu.

I just spend 30 dollars or a meal here and got a handful of vegetables, 4 prawns unshelled, and some egg rolls which were pretty good. They wouldnt let me speak to a manager. I actually have to order again from another restaurant because I'm still hungry and the wind just knocked my power out. I work hard for my money and cant afford to eat out often. I was very disappointed.

I visited Mangothai Restaurant and ordered Pad Gra Prao and my friend ordered SeaFoods Platter.
This was my first Thai food.
It was an amazing experience.
Thanks to Mangothai Restaurant, I can try whatever Thai food.
And they were very kind to us and we could enjoy it.
Thank you for making good memories of Thai food.
And I'll go back when I'm in Victoria.
If you're looking for Thai food, come to this restaurant.

Mango Thai is a perfect Thai restaurant in Victoria. I tried Mango Thai Noodle Soup for lunch with little spicy. So amazing. I already recommend my friends come to try and they loved it. Thank you for your serve ️️

Runs out of ingredients and hopes the customer just won’t notice. I ordered the Drunken Noodles dish takeout. When I got home and opened it there was no basil, which is a key crucial ingredient. I emailed them to let them know. They told me because of the weather and the ferries and their supplier blah blah they were out of basil. But “sincerest” of apologies. This review would of been avoidable had they let me know at the time of ordering that there wouldn’t be any basil. Poor business practices trying to undermine the customer. Maybe next time walk across the street to the grocery store and get some damn basil if you’re out or 86 the dish. Duh.

This is hands down the absolute worst north americanized asian cusine i've ever had.everything we got was SO greasy and a few advertised ingredients were missing from each dish.there was only one overworked server so everything took a very long time or order and receive.it was just an overall bad experience.

Best Thai food we've ever had in Canada. We ordered veg spring rolls, crispy wontons, chicken satay stix, veg green curry and red curry, Pad Thai - all were fresh, authentic and very flavourful. The cheesecake with mango sauce and homemade mango pudding were super delicious too. The owner and staff were all friendly and helpful. Will definitely come back again!

Came in here a couple days ago for dinner, great experience! Had the Pad Thai with chicken and Pineapple curry and rice. All perfectly cooked and very delicious. Highly recommend!

Good quality not as much sugar as sabhai Thai and they don’t overcharge you for brocolli if you want to swap it out for bamboo

My wife and I ordered in as a special treat. She had the curry, I had pad see lew. We’re not super picky eaters, and we love Thai food.but it was gross. It was so bad we ended up throwing it out and making ourselves dinner instead. A real shame. I don’t like leaving bad reviews but this one is 100% deserved.

Really disappointing. I called in a take-out order at 5: 30 asking to pick it up by 6: 45. When I got there to pick it up, I was told it would be an additional 10 mins. 30 mins later, I was given my order. I was hoping the food would be better than the service but was disappointed again. The wontons and spring rolls were soggy (so clearly they were ready and sitting while the other food was being prepared), the rice was mushy and the curry was just so-so. If you're looking for good, warm tasty Thai which is actually done on time, skip this place and go to Sabhai Thai.

Delicious food at a good price point - not the cheapest Thai restaurant around, but the very slight added cost is well worth while for the freshness and excellence of the food. A wide-ranging menu that's quite customizable to fit different dietary concerns or spice tolerances, great service from friendly staff, and some very nice surprises like the mango and sticky rice dessert or the shredded green papaya salad. Definitely worth checking out - and with a flat-rate lunch menu at twelve dollars, popping by mid-day to give it a try is a good plan in my books. Willing to bet that, if you do, you'll find yourself coming back again and again.

Second time in, much as the first time, food did not disappoint. Swimming Rama, was to die for. Come on everyone, try it, it's a nice quiet place to have a nice meal. Food quality seems very good to me. Prices are reasonable and the staff are very welcoming.

Pos: great service, lots of varieties, priced fairly for the quantity of food. Free parking. Easy to find.

Decor is open and clean. Seating arrangement is spacious.

Thai iced tea was fantastic.

Cons: Food was a bit bland. Cream cheese over powered the seafood eggroll.

Pad Thai was a bit soggy like pasta boiled too long (we ate at the restaurant in respond to the reply down below).

Compared to other Thai restaurants in Vic, it didn't really bring back memories of Thailand.

Price of extra toppings did not really make sense.

Overall it is okay. Since this is a new restaurant, will return in a year to try again.

Last night was the second time we’ve ordered from you and the portion sizes were smaller than the first time which I was confused about. Last time the curry came in a larger size container. I understand quality is important as I’ve read in other reviews but it sounds like quite a few people are not happy with the quantity verses the price. We would return if the price reflected more in the quantity of food. I would give 5 stars for flavour and friendliness though. And when you say you are about quality what exactly does that mean as I find a lot of restaurants are about that. Are your proteins locally sourced? Are your vegetables organic? It’s nice to have that information so customers know what you mean by sourcing quality ingredients for higher price.

Ordered take out and received the smallest 2 containers (ginger beef and a sweet and sour dish) that I have ever seen. The cost $30 and would barely feed 1 person dinner. I made a special trip to the restaurant the next day and spoke to the owner who I considered rude and basically made me feel like he didnt care to even listen to me, especially when he said to my face something along the lines of well for every 1 unhappy customer I have a hundred happy ones.and blew me off.
I would never eat here or order from here again and I've passed my experience along to everyone I know and will continue to do so. I've never been treated so badly as a customer from any service type business!

Mango Thai has provided me with friendly service and in my opinion the most deliciously authentic Thai experience in the Victoria area. After living in Thailand for a few years it is nice to have a place to go that brings back some of those good food memories.

Food: Chicken pad thai

noodles were gummy and flavorless, chicken was overcooked and wasn't seasoned, it tasted like rubber.

The entire meal lacked flavor. The mild spice was non existent, the medium spice felt like I was chewing on a habenero.

The portions size was underwhelming, not filling a standard take out container for $14.00, when compared to a place like Sabhai Thai, which is the same price of $14.00 for just under twice the portion and much more flavor.

The atmosphere was wonderful, the furniture is modern and comfortable.

The food came very quickly, however the rest of the service left something to be desired.

With proper seasoning and cooking techniques the food could be delicious, I'd recommend either slightly lowering the price or slightly increasing the portion size. I Look forward to trying the food again in a few months to see if anything has changed.

*This is an updated review now that we’ve tried Mango Thai several times*

Tested several dishes and every single one has been very well done and tasted much more authentic than other Thai restaurants in this area. I don’t personally find the “rocket fuel” level spice too hot, however I do prefer abnormal amounts of heat, so I’m sure the average person would. It’s no big deal though, I adjust the heat when I get takeout.

The owners seem to really care about their new business. They are super friendly and welcome customer feedback. I can’t say how thankful I am they’ve opened such a great restaurant on this side of the highway, we needed this!

Also, it’s fantastic that Mango Thai has partnered with SkipTheDishes. Nothing better than having amazing Thai food delivered to your door at the end of a long day!

We had dinner take out here last night for the first time and enjoyed the food SO much we came in the very next day for lunch.
The staff are very friendly, again the food was delicious!
My wife loved her soup a lot! The bowl was really large and packed with prawns, chicken, veggies and noodles.with a really tasty broth! I had to help her finish it, so lucky me! Good job MangoThai!

Not authentic Thai food at all - had high hopes since it's close to home and the price is good, but all it is is over-sauced goop. If you've never been to Thailand or have low standards for Thai food, it may be passable as a good meal.

Best Thai food I have had in years!
Yes the portions are a tad smaller than other places but the food quality and flavor is ten times better than any where else. (I believe in quality over quantity myself) Keep up the good work, we will reccomend you to every one!
