One of my absolute favourite restaurants in Montreal! Truly incredible Thai food, in a wonderfully welcoming environment. The staff are so friendly & knowledgeable, & the owner, Mathieu, is lovely. I recommend starting with some skewers (chicken satay & shrimp are favourites of mine!), then getting the pad Thai with pork belly & pad pak with some chicken wings, & washing it all down with a refreshing & delicious Cha Yen. & if it's in season the mango sticky rice is to die for.
C'était vraiment très bon du thaïlandais comme on voit pas partout, typique du Nord de la Thaïlande, j'ai même entendu dire Qu'il faisait venir leur épices de la Thaïlande directement

J'ajoute mon commentaire sur celui de tous ceux qui étaient là hier soir pour la Saint-Valentin. Service complètement dysfonctionnel. La serveuse n'avait pas passé notre commande en cuisine alors plus de 75min avant le premier service. On a dû supplier pour avoir le vin en attendant. La bouffe: on se serait cru à Un Souper presque parfait. Salade de mangue sans mangue, remplacé par des pommes avec fèves vertes & tomates. Bonjour la Thaïlande! Salade de crabe des neiges: feuilles de laitue, rondelle d'oignon & tomate cerise avec un crabe frit déposé dessus. La salade était décorative plutôt que gustative. Cari de crevettes sans grand cari; plat de nouilles qui aurait pu sortir d'un ramen en boîte; au moins le riz blanc en forme de coeur était réussi. Le proprio a bien essayé de réparer les pots cassés mais c'était perdu d'avance. Nous sommes partis avant le dessert qui était inclus car le supplice nous semblait interminable.
Valentine's Day menu: The flavors & cocktails were good, but the main course were a letdown. The food in general has no spicyness in any dish, which is weird for a Thai restaurant. The shrimp panang was watery & a tiny portion, while the Khao Soi had almost no curry broth.
Took way too long to get our food too. They also ran out of crème brûlée five hours before closing... so we went with the other option, which also had a disappointing portion.
J'avais entendu parlé de ce restaurant dans un show populaire de radio sportive bien connu & j'étais curieux de l'essayer car j'adore la bouffe Thai.
Malheureusement mon expérience a tourné au désastre.
Dès mon arrivée, j'ai presque glissé dans l'entrée du restaurant sur les tuiles en céramique.
A mon arrivée, la serveuse n'est jamais venu nous voir, n'a jamais expliqué le menu (qui d'ailleurs est vraiment pas clair). On a deviné qu'il fallait aller scanner le code QR pour voir des photos des items au menu (le choix est limité).
On a commandé des cocktails, le mien est arrivé après 5 minutes mais celui de ma compagne a pris 20 minutes ! Un malentendu de la serveuse apparemment. Mon drink avait un cheveu dedans ark. En passant les drinks étaient vraiment pas bon est cher...12-14$
L'endroit est assez vieux & cher pour ce que tu reçois dans ton assiette. Mon curri jaune au poulet a couté 26$ il me semble pour 5 bouchées de poulet, 5 morceaux de carottes & 3 morceaux de pommes de terre (voir photo). Heureusement qu'il y avait du riz au jasmin en forme de coeur ! Je regrette de n'avoir pas commandé le pad thai.... La bouffe était correcte par contre mais la portion si petite que je pense que c'est du vol à ce prix là !
Aussi, nous somme allé exprès pour la St-Valentin (voir promo dans les photos). Aucune mention de cela nul part dans le restaurant ou par la serveuse. C'est comme si ça n'existait pas ! Aucune décoration de St-Valentin & atmosphère moyenne.
Le plat de ma compagne était correct (une soupe avec du poulet), je lui est volé un peu car j'avais encore faim. Aussi nos plats étaient froid.
Bref, expérience très décevante pour 105$. On a salué la serveuse avant de quitter, & elle nous a totalement ignorée.
On n'y retournera plus c'est certain !

Fantastic & authentic vegetarian Thai food - go for the omelette rice & pad thai without fish sauce. The staff was friendly & very kid friendly, the place can get very loud.

Me reply to the owner here about what she replied : They said they used Thai seasoning & ingredients imported from Thailand, & yet it still tastes so bad. Not only is their skill inferior, but they're also making excuses. Giving them a bad review feels like an overreaction. Interestingly, the owner's replies to negative reviews of non-Quebec French names are quite harsh & sarcastic, while their replies to negative reviews of Quebec French names are remarkably humble & gentle. You might want to read them before making a reservation . Don't end up like me, wasting time, money, & losing a good mood.
By the way , whether a dish is delicious has absolutely nothing to do with where the chef is from or what they're from. It seems your chef didn't bring any Thai home-style cooking to Montreal. (Dec 6-2025)

The service is great,the ambiance is nice, the only issue is the food .
I don't know if the chef was in a hurry to get off work & go on a date. The menu says'grilled squid', but I didn't see any trace of grilling on the squid on the plate. It was boiled squid.
Cut the beef into strips & stir-fry it, unless the chef has very accurate control of the heat & time. Unfortunately, the beef was too old & tasted like chewing wood.
It is better for the Québécois who never been to Thailand to try , but if you been there , this is tasteless for you.(Jun 2025)
A great place if you want to taste authentic Thai food In a great relaxed ambiance. The chef & most kitchen staff are Thai, so the food tastes just like in Thailand. They also have an very complete wine & cocktail list & a very cosy dining environment. Very highly recommended. They also cater very well to gluten free. I am coeliac & everything I ate was just great for me!
I went there many times for the special dinner with friends & family. This restaurant is good vibe & welcome for many events.
The food is authentic Thai cuisine by Thai chef.
My husband is celiac for gluten & we can request the chef to cook the prroper dishes for him.
All the staffs are nice & kind. They can explained & recommended which dished are good to tried if you don't know what you would like to eat. There are some special menu to good to try.
J'y suis allé avec ma femme. La bouffe n'est pas terrible pour le prix. Je préfère le Thaï Express rapport qualité/prix. Le propriétaire ne prend généralement pas bien les critiques, ca se voit dans les commentaires. Il faut vraiment s'améliorer !
