Best vegan restaurant in Montreal! Followed the advice from other reviews & tried the mock duck with spinach which certainly did not disappoint. We also tried a mock chicken dish with peanut satay sauce & it was super tasty. 100% recommend the food here & the service was great too!

One of the best & authentic Thai food in Montreal. Their red curry & green curry are too good! I was dreaming about it 2 days after I had the food. Their vegan chicken skewers are amazing with ting of lemon! I recommend the place every single time. It gets really crowded in the summer, so call to reserve.
