• I realise that we have never really reviewed food delivery services here except for the occasional cupcakes and tea. Recently, my whole family got together for a casual meal and we decided to order in. The food delivery we chose was Thai to Go.
It’s our first time trying out this Thai food delivery service. The 6 dishes we ordered arrived within 90 minutes, piping hot and ready to be served. Each dish is packed neatly in its own plastic container.
As far as aesthetics go, we are really not expecting any artistic arrangements of food served out of plastic containers, but the food sure smells yummy enough to get our cat interested. And cats, as you may know, are incredibly finicky eaters. Not that we fed him any of it anyway.
The food, as it turns out, is remarkably good!
S$5.50
From the rice menu, Everyone’s Favourite Pineapple Rice is extremely fragrant, and also includes a crown of meat floss and cashew nuts. As the food is Halal certified, I assume it is chicken floss.
Thai belachan kangkongS$4.95 for small / S$7.50 for medium
The Thai belachan kangkong is initially a downer as the vegetable is mostly soaked in what looks to be chilli oil. Surprisingly, it is easily the best-tasting dish of the night as the oily soup goes great with rice. For spicy food lovers, this one scores 10/10 on the fiery factor and will instantly clear your sinuses.
Tom Yum seafoodS$6.95 for small / S$10.50 for medium
There are three options for tom yum soup; you can order it with chicken, prawn or seafood, or perhaps even try the coconut milk version. This tangy Thai classic is a decent rendition, though my favourite is still at Joe’s Thai Kitchen.
Thai green curry chickenS$5.50 for small / S$8.50 for medium
The Thai green curry chicken is also satisfying, though not quite exceptional.
S$9.50 for small / S$12.95 for medium
The only disappointing dish in our meal is the deep fried sweet & sour sliced fish, which happens to be one of the priciest items on the menu. For the price, the serving of fish is less than generous, and the taste forgettable.
Overall, Thai to Go serves up a number of hits and a few misses. As a Thai food fan who’s looking for convenience without compromising on quality much, I will certainly look forward to ordering again. There is a delivery charge of S$3 which is very reasonable, especially when you compare it with the taxes and service charges at a restaurant. package tours to Uzbekistan Tashkent

I order from Thai To Go during lunch in office quite often ‘cos its really good and well priced… we had a small office gathering and Thai To Go had provided us with delicious bento sets as well. Would be keen to know if their restaurant has the same standard as their delivery, or better. =)

Yeah I’m curious to know too. Though if the restaurant has service charges in place, I think their food delivery service may be more convenient and economical.

For this amount of dish u ordered, enough for how many ppl ? i am thinking of ordering for 8 ppl at home, not sure if the food portion is too small?

There’s an omelette dish that I didn’t include in the review. With that, it was more than enough for 5 people. We cooked our own steamed rice as the pineapple rice ordered was the small portion. For 8 people, you may want to try ordering Medium portions for the dishes (we ordered Small for all).

My partner was pondering what to have for dinner. Out of sudden, I thought of this Thai-to-go home delivery I once saw online. So we decided to give a try by placing our order of just 3 dishes for the start. We ordered the most delectable and finger licking pineapple rice which packed in a spilled free plastic containers. Oh mean, just by admiring the food crowned with meat floss and cashut nuts already took your breath away and the taste is so authentic and of restaurant standard.
The 2nd order we placed was the spring roll another dish that made you to come back for More!!!! Plus the Thai chilli. Simply thumbs up. Last we ordered was the Phad Thai noodle. The serving was generously portioned, sufficient enough for extra 2 to 3 mouths to relish. Everything else we tried were fantastic and of restaurant standard, except we find the phase Thai noodle a ‘little’ too sweet perhaps can moderate it with sweet and sour instead of just sweet. Waiting time is little long but still overall worth the wait for the dishes were really sumptuous. Can tell a lot of hard work invested. Kudos!!! Yeah!!!!
We definitely will look at next order for sure.
Thank you
Cheers,

We visited the shop to pack away lunch for 3 pax on Saturday 14 June, before 12 noon.
We wait a full hour for our order. There were 2 other orders from dine-in, and one other from call-in – we noted the 4 pieces of order slips, including ours. One order came in after ours.
The food was so-so; you can probably get the same standard from the hawker centre.
We don’t want to rant, but we should let others know about the bad service and attitude. We understand if the kitchen is new and need to iron out the time-mangement kinks. However it is not right for staff to be rude to customers (especially when the rude one looks to be the boss or the shop manager), when all they are asking is how long more to wait.
This is definitely not an establishment we will return with our patronage. We will see the $50+ spent today as our lesson learnt. Since there is no appreciation for customers, we will not be sorry to see it go. Thai to go, indeed!

I just ordered from Thai to go and it’s taken nearly 3hrs (double the time advised at ordering). Owner apologised but did not even offer an discount.
Will not order from here again

My family tried this 1 week ago. The food is only so-so (except the Tom Yum soup which was good) and it took them 3 hours to deliver the food! Will not order from them again.
