Review Summary

Reviews for Boonlaï describe a warm, casual Thai spot with attentive service and friendly ownership, where staff are consistently present and helpful. Diners praise authentic flavors and generous portions at reasonable prices, with many noting dishes such as Pad Thai, Pad Krapow, Tom Yum, Khao Soi, and a refreshing mango salad. The food is described as fresh and carefully prepared, with some saying the noodles and curries evoke Thai market and street-food vibes.

While a few notes mention occasional variations in authenticity or portion sizes, the overall sentiment is highly positive with praise for value and flavor.

Un peu déçu de la nourriture. Peu authentique & prix légèrement exagéré pour un fast food.
Nous avons pris des pad thai & udon aux arachides. Les sauces étaient correctes par contre les légumes & crevettes n'avaient aucun goût.

L'ambiance & service étaient sympa.

Le meilleur de resto de bouffe Thaï à Montréal & de loin ….. & j'ai déjà voyagé une demi douzaine de fois en Thaïlande , c'est le premier pad Thai que j'ai mangé qui goûte exactement comme là-bas . Essayez aussi la soupe au boeuf braisé & nouilles de riz …. Malade

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!

Quel plaisir d'avoir ce resto dans notre quartier!

Top pad thai dans Hochelaga! La localisation semble être une malédiction pour les restaurants qui ouvrent à cet emplacement, puisqu'il ferment tous les uns après les autres. J'espère donc qu'une cuisine de cette qualité saura rompre le triste sort du coin Pie-IX/Ste-Cath.

Food is excellent, especially the soup & the Khao Ka Moo! Food was served quickly. Plus the owner plays good music in there It's a great addition to the neighbourhood food offer & 2 minutes from my place. Good job :)

Quelle belle découverte! Le khao soy est meilleur qu'à Chiang Mai, le krapow est digne de Phang nga, la salade de mangue est comme une salade de papaye 2.0 d'un night market. Un joyau qui en vaut le détour. Go!

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

De la cuisine savoureuse, authentique & préparée avec soin. C'est une véritable chance que Boonlaï se soit installé dans le quartier!
