Absolument succulent! Les spring rolls sont merveilleux, le pad thai très goûteux & le sticky rice est délicieux. On a adoré notre expérience, je recommande fortement!
Everyone who worked at the time I went for my reservation was very accommodating! The atmosphere felt welcoming, & the food was delicious! I think my only negative thing was that my pad Thai was a little lacking in flavour (but that's coming from someone who likes it with a bit more sauce than other people... so not a big negative & just a knitpick), but the portions were generous & I found the pricing to be fair! Highly recommend it!

Commande à emporter réalisée pour trois personnes chez Bistro Ona, & l'expérience a été très satisfaisante du début à la fin.
La Tom Yum Soup se distinguait par son bel équilibre & la finesse de ses saveurs, à la fois réconfortantes & bien maîtrisées. Le Pad Thai aux crevettes était parfaitement exécuté, avec une cuisson juste & un assaisonnement équilibré. Les Stir-Fried aux arachides, choisis par les deux autres convives, étaient tout aussi réussis : savoureux, généreux & bien relevés.
Les impressions sont unanimes : une cuisine raffinée, savoureuse & tout simplement super. Une adresse à recommander sans hésitation pour une expérience thaïlandaise de qualité.

The place is amazing, the atmosphere & service impeccable, the food is prepared with love & you can feel the freshness of every ingredient. Presentation of the plates are also a differentiation which turned our meal a real Thai experience in Montréal. I do recommend Bistro Ona & looking forward to be back with family & friends very soon!

Le meilleur resto Thaï que j'ai visité depuis longtemps. Belle ambiance, service courtois, la cuisine parfaite & authentique! Sans oublié les prix raisonnables, ça fait du bien par les temps qui courent!
I visited the restaurant on DJ night. The vibe was great. I started off with Tomyum soup. The portion was perfect for appertizer. Then I ordered Pad Thai shrimp. It tasted like real street food in Thailand. Highly recommended to visit!
I'm not an expert on Thai food, but everything on my plate brought me straight back to Southeast Asia, for sure! We tried perfectly crispy spring rolls, a very yummy tom yum with tofu, & a tofu curry where, in my opinion, the coconut milk didn't overwhelm or compete with other flavors on the plate. I would've preferred larger pieces of tofu to create a better contrast between the crispy exterior & soft interior, but that's simply a personal preference! Oh, & it's worth noting that the presentation was beautiful, & the atmosphere was lovely, too; in fact, I'm pretty sure they dimmed the lights as the evening went on, which was a nice touch.
However, it was difficult not to allow the service to overshadow everything I noted above. We had a 6:30 reservation but weren't seated until 7:30; to be fair, we arrived a few minutes late ourselves, so we left our number & walked around nearby. Still, an hour wait on a snowy night wasn't ideal!
Our mains also came out separately without a warning or heads-up, so I ended up waiting to eat while my partner's fish sat visible on the kitchen counter for several minutes before anyone brought it out. We also dealt with three different staff members over the course of the meal, which made things feel disjointed.
I wouldn't hesitate to come back because there's clearly a ton of love & intention behind the food, & I have no doubt the experience as a whole will soon come together with a bit more time.
Un bijou à découvrir !
Cuisine authentique, prix très raisonnable, service & ambiance parfaite. Tout simplement j'ai adoré … & je retournerai sans aucune hésitation
Très bonne découverte! Les plats proposés le soir étaient très bon. Je recommande particulièrement le pad thaï, les crevettes à la sauce tamarin & la salade de mangue. Le personnel est très accueillant & ils sont capables d'adapter les plats selon vos préférences.
C'est un restaurant auquel je retournerais avec plaisir.
My boyfriend & I had Thai food here last night & it was incredible! It was so good we were still talking about it the next day. He had the red curry i had tofu pad thai :) both really great
The service was great too! great recommendations & kind staff
Très blanche sensible que je suis, le piquant ce n'est vraiment pas pour moi & la très gentille serveuse m'a gentiment amené un petit pot de sauce curry afin que je puisse tester avant de me décider 😊
La décoration est très jolie & les prix raisonnables. Une belle nouvelle addition au quartier.
