Not sure why it's only a 4 out of 5!? The food is flavourful & fresh. The place is casual & good for kids. Had a great lunch.

Wonderful place to meet for lunch! Quality of food is excellent & service is always great.
Only surprise today was that there was no air conditioning….
Disappointing, as these hot summer days are overwhelming.

Excellent food, nice selection of lunch specials. The peanut sauce was full of flavour but the dumplings a bit hard. The green curry had a perfect spice level for lunch.

They have a lunch special, which is $17.95 & includes a coffee or tea, but they will not let you substitute a soda (even though a soda on the menu is the same price as a coffee or tea). I do not like hot drinks. I was very angry because this policy made no logical sense, but I stayed polite. I ate the lunch special & tipped 15% because I do not like confrontation. I should have just walked out then: a place that will nickel & dime you like that is probably cutting corners on the food too. The menu looked alright, but the lunch special was the cheapest option, & even that seemed too high. I will not be back, despite living 3 blocks away. Imperial roles were super greasy.

Visiting from the states, it was a frigid December day walking the hood. We saw Bangkok Express on Monk & we stopped in to lunch & get warm. The menu was limited but flexible. The service was good & particularly friendly once we began chatting with the servers. Inside was calming & brightly lit thanks to all of the tall windows letting in natural light. We were pleasantly surprised & would visit again if in the area. I think this location has a lot of regulars.

What's happened to this place? Food used to be flavourful, with good sized portions & excellent service. Not any more. Food was just so so & expensive, unprofessional, rude servers. I was wondering why the restaurant was empty at lunch time.
Now I know.
Will not return.

SO YUMMY! I find it challenging to get good Thai food in Montreal, & this place made my year when I discovered it. Their lunch specials are delicious & affordable. My favorite used to be beef & eggplant until they swapped that out & I tried the cashew tofu. Out of this world! The ambiance is great, they have a patio in the summertime & although it gets jampacked with people, the servers are always on top of their game. Highly recommend!

Always fresh, hot & ready to eat. The chicken was crispy enough without being overdone. Served with rice & stir fried with yummy veggies. I have also had the bass fish on previous occasions, which is so good....!!! Out server was great & had all explanations needed for my friend dining there for the first time. Always a casual & very friendly atmosphere. I'll be going back for sure !! We had the lunch menu at a good price.
