    Too bad the location fell down, and moved to another place!
    Salad King is alright, I've had their Emerald curry there, and it was pretty good!
    It wasn't too pricey, but the service was a little poor. The waiters seemed busy, and wanted to rush us out once we finished our food.
    I've only had their curry, so I can't judge the authenticity of their foods, but I'm not sure if I'd go back. To me, the portions were small, and I definitely felt hungry afterwards.

    I love Salad King. I recommened the Thai Islamic noodle. It might not be listed on the menu but if you ask for it, they'll make it.

    Salad King is by far my favouriite Thai place. I tried about 8 - 10 Thai places in Toronto (even the really high class ones) but nothing is comparable to Salad King. Its not your evening dine in type of place, but the food is AMAZING. What I love is its so fresh and flavourful. I reccomend the SIAM NOODLES and the GOLDEN THAI CURRY. Even their chicken Satay with peanut sauce is great!

    They have a classier version of Salad King, same owners too called Lindas - I really like the atmosphere but I feel the food tastes exactly the same but you just spend 25 dollars more for the ambiance.

    if you're downtown and looking for a quick eat, this is a must try. the portions are generous and the prices are low. the only downside is the sheer number of people in the joint at any given time. if you're thinking of eating at salad king during the key lunch or dinner times, be prepared to wait in line that could go out the door.

    if you do decide to check it out, take note of the spice rating when ordering. i like all of their curries so definitely try something that suits your fancy and you will likely not be disappointed.

    Salad King has been a favourite take-out and eat-in restaurant of mine for years. Tucked away down near Ryerson, you'll always find it packed with people which is definately a good indication that you have found a great place to eat. Service is quite fast and the prices are so cheap, every dish is under $10 and you get enough to share. I suggest getting 2-4 dishes for takeout and having a thai get-together with friends. We never got past 5 chilis, which was quite spicy, but for those who are adventurous or just plain crazy, you can go up to 20 chilis (I think.)
    I still don't know why it's called Salad King, I think this signage probably confuses alot of people but for those in the know- this is a great place to eat with cheap, tasty, fast food. Give it a try!

    This is one of Toronto's most legendary "Cheapeats".

    If you're visiting the city and you want a fast, fresh casual meal close to the Eaton's Center & Dundas Square without tourist-trap prices, this is a great spot to hit. Even if it looks busy, stick around - the line generally moves fairly quickly and the price you'll spend on a generous portion of spicy Thai food makes it worthwhile.

    For the price, Salad King offers filling portions and good food. Their golden curry is delicious, but I find their pad thai a bit sour. This place is often packed with people during dinner service so get there earlier if you don't want to wait in line.

    hmmm hmmm good!
    The quality of service at Salad King has certainly increased in the last year and half or so, the staff is more diverse and they definitely dont rush you out if there anymore ( believe me , ive lollygagged long enough to test it out.
    i find the food quality isnt every consistent, sometimes the sauce is watery or three chillis tastes more like 4 some days, but salad king isnt for the ones with sensitive palates or connoisseurs of fine thai cuisine, SALAD KING is perfect for students, which is why they make most of their money off of us.

    I usually come here with my friend who goes to Ryerson. It's really close and inexpensive so a great place for a university student's lunch. I'm not a picky eater or have special dietary restrictions so it's a great place for me. I usually get:
    Rainbow Chicken $7.95
    Chicken breast, egg plant, bell peppers, carrots, onions, basil, lemon grass, chilli sauce, steamed rice.
    It's great because you can alter the spiciness of your food.
    The only downside of this place is that even though there's a special vegetarian menu only two items are actually FULLY vegetarian (as pointed out to us by a friendly server). Apparently any item that can be altered when it comes to spiciness, is not vegetarian. I still love it!

    I've been to Salad King numerous times and I've always had a positive experience. It's a busy restaurant, but the service is quick so you're in and out faster than most places. It's a cafeteria style downstairs - with large tables where you sit beside strangers, but still have a server. Upstairs is never as busy and it's traditional private tables. The menu is different upstairs, but just as good. Overall, I'd highly recommend Salad King for anyone who likes Thai food.

    P.S. I'd recommend getting the mango chicken!
