“Cheap, fresh asian food”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 10, 2012

We got there just before the evening rush. What a line up--obviously the locals know it has the best Thai food. Green Curry and Chicken Paneng were both delicious. They made sure that the Chicken Paneng was Gluten and Dairy-free for me.

“Nice surprise! Wholesome, fresh, fast...if not quite authentic...”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed September 18, 2012

We were delighted to find a Thai place in little Canmore, so we ordered take out from Thai It Up, run by an ex-pat who went to Thailand, loved the food, and studied cooking. We ordered the Green Papaya Salad (one of our favorites) and the Chicken Panang Curry. Both were fresh, tasty, with authentic ingredients (Kaffir Lime leaves, Green Papaya, Thai Chiles - where do you GET this stuff in the middle of the Rockies??). Our only criticism was that the flavors were rather bland. Panang, for example, should have a rich spicy coconut-based sauce: this was really just a stir-fry on rice. I applaud the owner for offering food that is well-prepared and freshly served. I would just suggest making the effort to mimic true Thai flavors, balancing fish sauce, lime, sugar etc. (And more coconut in the Panang!). But we recommend this place as a good, healthy option for Canmore.

“Tasty food!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed August 5, 2012 via mobile

The food taste pretty good and price is reasonable. I wish there are more sit down place so we don't have to bring the food back to our hotel.

“wish they had seating”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed July 23, 2012

great spot, use to serve from a food truck in town last summer. Now a spot to go year round. Too bad there's limited seating at the window only. Fantastic for take out at lunch.
