Dek Sen Cuisine Thaïlandaise is widely viewed as a cozy, welcoming Montreal spot where authentic Thai flavors meet a halal menu, with dishes like green curry, panang, pad Thai, pad see ew, kao soi, tom yum, papaya salad and mango sticky rice praised for vibrant, well balanced flavors and generous portions; the space and service are repeatedly described as warm and attentive, making it a great place to catch up with friends or try new menu items. Some reviews mention occasional slow service or comfort issues such as heat inside the restaurant, and a few note changes in staff or management affecting consistency, but overall Dek Sen is seen as a solid, authentic Thai option that many plan to return to.
Being a fan of Thai food, having to find a halal spot was just perfect! We ordered beef pad Thai, Pla rad prik (I am not sure of the name, it was fried fish in chili sauce), chicken red curry, mango sticky rice & Thai milk tea. All the dishes were prais worthy. We enjoyed the fried fish & red curry most. I have had better pad Thai & milk tea though. But they were also good. The mango sticky rice was just delicious!
The service was nice, the atmosphere was calm. (I think mainly because it was a weekday). There was a promotion as well, for ordering a drink we got a free pad Thai for our child. It was very nice of them.
Some of the dishes on the menu were Thai name, it would be helpful if there were small descriptions of the dish.
My family was only in Montreal for a few hours & I wanted a nice place with good food & an easy vibe & this was AMAZING! The server was so nice as well (she taught us the rules of rugby versus football), the food was incredible & we polished every plate
I'm absolutely in love. Thai cuisine is my ultimate favourite & Deksen really hit the spot with some classic & new favorites. Will definitely be returning again & again for the service, the amazing food & the extremely friendly staff.
We ordered salt & pepper shrimp, tom yum soup, chicken gyoza, their new flower dumplings, red & green curries (both came with rice), grilled mackerel (very nice with a great green dip).

Très bon service rapide & souriant en anglais & en français
Plats copieux & parfumés
Attention aux piments si vous n'êtes pas habitués
Je recommande vivement de visitâtes ce restaurant thaïlandais au plein coeur du plateau mont royal
Cannot go wrong with this place if you're looking for halal thai food. Gyozas were great & mango sticky rice is a must.
However, the beef in my pad see ew was a little tough, which made the meal a little less enjoyable. Wish they had stronger A.C as well since it was hot inside.
Overrall, food & service were great.
Would come back any time for the mango sticky rice.

I came here with my girlfriend for a fairly late weekend dinner.
We ordered the pad kra prow, pad see ew, & two thai iced teas for a total of $72 for 2 people including tax & tip.
It was a solid meal, simply put! The pad see ew was flavorful, & the pad kra prow was actually a fried rice which was an interesting variant of the dish I haven't seen before.
Overall, it might be a bit pricey if you're factoring in drinks, tax & tip, but it's good Thai food in MTL if you want to give it a try.
everything about this thai spot felt super mid… nothing wrong with anything but nothing particularly good or exceptional with anything either… just a decent meal with decent portions with decent flavours… i've had plenty of better thai restaurants
Always love coming here & the fact that it's halal. I ordered the kao soi with braised beef instead of chicken, & my friends ordered the drunken noodles with beef & shrimp. Food is always delicious here!
