Everything was delicious! We ordered the pork leg, fried chicken with jasmine rice, & the Pad Thai, & every dish was packed with flavor. Honestly, I have nothing negative to say about the food.
We paired our meal with a Thai milk tea & a mango juice from the fridge, & both were a great match. The portions are generous, so the prices feel like excellent value for the quality & amount of food you get.
If you're looking for authentic Thai food with big portions & great flavors, this place is definitely worth a visit. With rare Thai restaurant around Montreal, this is definitely one of the best & authentic ones!
Pad Thai was great, but I felt like it was missing an extra punch! Pad Krapow was good. Paid extra for the fried egg as it wasn't included. It was unfortunately overcooked/not runny.
I wish the other noodle dishes were made with rice noodles instead of udon, which deters me from trying any of these dishes.
Overall a good restaurant adapted to its neighborhood.
This is a great place to pop in for lunch. The service is fast, the portions are generous & the food is really good. I had the fried chicken (first item on the speciality menu) & it was deicious. The batter was light & crunchy with a super good mayo & a bit of a sweet sauce on a bed of jasmin rice. The rice perfectly soaks up the sauce & filla you up if you have a big aperite. The side sallad is waterver tbh, there is sweet dressing & its not bad same for the cucumber more for the esthtics.
I would def go here for a laid back casual fast lunch. They also have some shirts & totebags.
Great take out joint in the neighborhood offering authentique thai cuisines & classics. The portions are big, pricing is fair & the food is extremely fresh. We have come on a couple occasions for the pad thai & tried a fried chicken & rice dish. Everything is flavorful & cooked with care.
The menu is not too big, just enough variety for you to try a taste of thailand & want to come back again.
There is seating on site but the vibe is more for takeout.
Really good joint, the food feels authentic. My go to order is the pork leg stew with the fried rice. It never misses. Service is also very good & quick. The fried rice is fresh, made on order. Long live Boonlaï!
Two chicken cutlets, deep fried & served on bed of shredded cabbage & carrots (appetiser) - PERFECTION Tom Yum noodle soup - decent. Comes with Asian bitter greens, which is great. This soup is creamy which I didn't expect. Will be great for those who prefers a creamier taste (coconut milk 😍). Next time, can't wait to try other choices like the pork chop & pad Thai, etc. 🤤🤤🤤 I reallly hope this place does well because we are in need of tasty, affordable & healthy restaurant choices in HOMA. But also because Montreal in general lacks SE Asian cuisine. If you live in the neighborhood it's also worth trying Golden Lotus for a quick Vietnamese fix.
Our entire table was jealous of each dish that came out, it all smelled & looked so good. Service was super fast too. Best fried chicken strips I've had in a long time
I had shrimp appetizer which is very good & the crispy chicken on fried rice. The food is excellent!!
