This place is very clean, cozy & has a nice atmosphere. The music is calming & quiet. The food was delicious & the portions were filling. The prices are very reasonable & worth it. The staff is kind & respectful. I used the spectra tickets. I really recommend the place I'll be back !
It was perfect vibe for evening fancy resto, the food was good but I went on Saturday night. The restaurant quite busy & a little(just a little bit) lacking of service. Even they have a lot of staff.
Highly recommend for Thai food :)

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.
It's definitely a 10/10! I'm already thinking about my next visit. The owner is incredibly kind & truly passionate about her work. The chef is exceptionally talented , you can taste his expertise in every dish. The service was five-star from start to finish. I'm absolutely in love with this place!
There are two reasons why you visit a restaurant. Food quality & customer service. Right off the bat, I will say the food was really stellar. Ingredients were fresh & it really came through in their dishes. It wasn't just a bunch of salt used to flavour the dishes but you can taste how the respective ingredients came together to have a good taste profile. I found myself trying to guess what herb, vegetable or seasoning I was tasting as I tried different dishes. Solid 9.5 out of 10. Highly recommend the'Fish three-flavor Chili sauce' & the Crispy veggie rolls with their dipping sauce. As for the service, the owner clearly has passion for cooking & it showed in her service. Very personable & sweet lady. It's always a bonus to be able to support a small business owner. Will definitely go back again…

Un vrai coup de coeur à Montréal. Mon expérience au Bistro Ona Thai a été merveilleuse du début à la fin. Les entrées étaient savoureuses & parfaitement présentées, les plats principaux étaient délicieux, riches en saveurs & très bien équilibrés, & les desserts ont conclu le repas à merveille. Les cocktails étaient également excellents, bien préparés & très agréables. On sent la qualité des ingrédients, le soin apporté à chaque plat & l'attention au détail. Le service était chaleureux & l'ambiance très agréable. Une très belle adresse que je recommande sans hésitation.
A true gem in Montreal. My experience at Bistro Ona Thai was wonderful from start to finish. The appetizers were flavorful & beautifully presented, the main dishes were absolutely delicious & perfectly balanced, & the desserts were the perfect ending to the meal. The cocktails were also excellent, well crafted, & very enjoyable. You can really feel the quality of the ingredients & the care put into every dish. The service was warm & the atmosphere was lovely. I highly recommend this place & will definitely be back.
Really enjoyed this new Thai spot! The Pad Thai had perfectly chewy noodles & was packed with delicious flavor. We ordered the chicken Pad Kra Pao at spice level 2 & it was super tasty with just the right kick.
The mango salad was fresh, sweet, & nicely balanced. To finish, the pandan custard sticky rice was warm & comforting.

Nous avons passé une excellente soirée à goûté des repas exquis dans une ambiance très chaleureuse, c'est un endroit que je recommande fortement si vous avez envie d'un bon repas frais & savoureux.
A cozy spot that serves incredible thai cuisine. The red curry & pad thai were excellent, good portion sizes & family friendly. Doy, the owner, was such a gracious hostess! Thank you for a wonderful night
Une nouveauté qu'il vaut vraiment la peine d'essayer. Petit restaurant hyper sympa dont l'aménagement a été super bien pensé pour qu'on sente une intimité & que ce ne soit pas bruyant. Nourriture excellente. Menu court & les classiques y sont tous présents ce qui veut souvent dire que chaque assiette est excellente & c'est le cas. Prix du vin raisonnable. Allez y ! Difficile à battre dans le secteur.
