at the bottom of the page is says "Delivery to Westboro, Carleton University, Little Italy, Chinatown, Centretown, The Glebe, Old Ottawa South."
i think when you hit the delivery button it's prompting you to make an order, for delivery, hence the menu coming up.
i've only been for lunch and it's ok, not great. i much prefer baan thai. the pad thai at wandee is very heavy and sticky and sweet. the curries are great. the stir-fry dishes i've had have been ok. but that's all going off the lunch menu with the lunch cooks, things could be very different at dinner.

Let me blow your mind here... you're going to call me a liar, you're going to doubt my sanity, my credibility on this site will no doubt take a hit.... but i'm just gonna say it...
Wandee Thai.... wandeethai.com/
.... a cute but cramped little takeaway/delivery counter just off Preston street... is cooking up the best, no, the bestest, Thai food in Ottawa.
I've been to Siam Bistro, Aiyara, Baan Thai, Pookie and the rest... they're all great. But based on three takeout orders in the last couple of months, I'm ranking Wandee at the top.
They nail all the classics... the curries, the veg dishes, the soups... portions are solid, flavor is amazing... the pad thai is like the kind you want someone's Thai grandmother to make... the pineapple rice is like a dish, not a side, and i haven't found black pepper chicken anywhere that's this good. The mango and papaya salads are like a trip to the tropics if the tropics were in Thailand and occasionally lit your mouth on fire in a good way.
Most dishes are made fresh w fresh ingredients... if you do takeaway you can watch them make most of your food on the spot. I think that the chef (who is Thai) is the lady half of the owner couple and the phone/delivery/everything else guy is the other half... they're really nice people too.
And they deliver, which is a huge bonus. They also have a couple of tables inside and picnic tables outside in the summer.
Worth the money, will be ordering again, likely tonight.
