Such a great hidden gem in Montreal! 🤩 Absolutely loved my experience at Bistro Ona. The drinks were so good & everything we tried was packed with flavour.
For appetizers, we had the mango salad & the crispy shrimp, & the shrimp were SO crispy & delicious! 🍤🥭 For mains we tried the Pad Thai & their signature fish dish & both were amazing. Everything tasted incredibly fresh & authentic with such great depth of flavour.
Service was lovely as well. Definitely a spot I'd recommend if you're looking for delicious & authentic Thai food in Montreal! 🌶?✨
This place was incredible, I very much enjoyed everything we ordered, every dish on our table was impressive, being the 3 chili flavor fish, yellow curry, tamarind shrimp, coconut shrimp, mango salad & mango sticky rice. The staff was so kind & patient, & as a growing restaurant they really put so much passion flair & flavor into the food. They didn't shy away from bold & pungent flavors.
I had high hopes for this as per the current rating. Service was sliw & inadequate, I had to get up 3 times to get water & or attebtion from waiting staff even though the place was nearly empty. Food was very basic, take out quality street food - bland & no flavors in curry. The rice dish was not good & we both vould not finish it. the mango salad was the only good dish. Really bad experience overall.
On a commandé un curry vert (plus épicé que les autres) avec du poisson basa non frit. Il était très tendre & le curry délicieux. On a aussi goûté le sauté d'aubergine, ça m'a définitivement ramené des souvenirs dy meilleur plat que j'ai eu la chance de goûter en Thaïlande, le Pad Makua Yao, il était très bien réussi! La salade de papaye est souvent trop épicée pour moi en Thaïlande, mais ici, j'ai pu demandé avec un seul Chili, ce qui était parfait pour mon palais. Ils ont aussi une bonne sélection de mocktails & de Ball-o-shot, des amusantes bulles de gélatine remplies de cocktail! Pour dessert, on a essayé le riz collant à la mangue & le gâteau fondant au chocolat, tous deux délicieux. C'est notre nouveau resto favori!
Je voulais aimer & encourager ce restaurant qui venait d'ouvrir 1 mois avant le soir où je dinais avec un groupe.
Belle salle, accueil sympathique par la serveuse, service correct.
Mais la nourriture manquait de saveur, le poisson sauce tamarin était trop sucré & manquait clairement le goût du tamarin. La salade Som Tum manquait le goût de la lime & de piment.
Très grande déception car au moment du dessert il n'y avait rien de Thai, juste des fondants au chocolat industriels.
As a Thai person, I really enjoyed my experience at this Thai restaurant 🇹🇭!! The staffs are very welcoming & friendly PLUS they spoke Thai, English, & French, which made me feel very welcome & reminded me of home.
The food felt authentic while still being adapted to suit different tastes. We ordered Chicken Satay, Fried Chicken, Chicken Siam Red Curry, Chicken Stir-Fry with Peanut Sauce, & a Papaya Salad with 5 chilies that brought the spicy kick I was looking for. For drinks, the Thai Green Tea had a wonderful fresh floral aroma, & the Thai Milk Tea was incredibly smooth & delicious.
To finish, we had Mango Sticky Rice & Thai-Style Roti with Condensed Milk, both of which were excellent.
Great food, friendly service, & a warm atmosphere. I'll definitely be coming back!

I think this might be the first time I give 10 out of 10 out of every single thing I tried at a restaurant. I would order every single thing again. Known dishes, executed perfectly. Besides the food, the service was amazing. Such lovely owners! & the restaurant has such a calm atmosphere. It was perfect for us. I am so happy we found this restaurant because we will definitely come back!
Delightful gem! We started with Mango Salad & Chicken Satay skewers - all perfect👌I had the Red Curry Chicken - fantastic with tons of delicious red curry sauce - absolutely perfect! He had the Ona Basil dish - beyond flavorful! Service was outstanding & ambience was beautiful. Highly recommend for a date night - a must try for Thai food lovers.
