Best thai milk teas ever ! The dishes are good but not outstandingly flavourful for the price. Generous portions though & kind service. I'd give a 3.8 ❤?
Food was okay not what I'm used to for thai. It had the Thai flavors but very different from Thai food from American Thai restaurants. Serverss don't seem to remember who ordered what & will place food without stating what the item is. So it does leave to some confusion.

La terrasse est vraiment sympa & agréable à s'y poser en fin de journée lors du coucher de soleil. Le serveur était très friendly & réactif. Les plats étaient authentiques mais peut être un peu trop salé pour certains notamment le tom kha.
La nourriture est très bonne. J'ai beaucoup aimé le pad thai & les drunken noodles qui est très épicé. La salade de papaye est très bonne & la salade de mangue est juste correcte. Le meilleur thai iced tea que j'ai gouté. Le personnel est très gentil & patient. C'est certain que j'y retournerai.
The food was good. However the service was extremely slow. The server got other people's order wrong multiple times & forgot one of our orders. Took 10 minutes to get our mango sticky rice, which we had to ask for twice. The service can be improved for sure.
This unassuming place is the best Thai restaurant in Montreal. It's been around a while but has a new menu & chefs since last year. Great curries & stir fries, Veg friendly with tofu options for almost all dishes. Rarer regional dishes like Khao Soi are a highlight.
Khao Soy ( Authentic thai noodle soup ) so tasty , chicken is so soft ,not spicy as the color , 👍👍👍if you have no idea of what you gonna order ,I really recommend you try this menu or pad thai & also kraprao Kai recèpe. There are best represent dishs of thai menu here .

Les réels m'avaient bien tenté d'aller tester les fameux plats populaires de la Thaïlande avec la particularité de la maison: halal.
Choix: la terrasse m'avait l'air plus agréable que l'intérieur du restaurant pour dîner/souper sous un temps clément.
Les serveurs souriants & accueillants au top.
Les plats authentiques.
Portion: good.
Seuls bémols: le vermicelle trop cuit à mon goût (Pad Thai au poulet) & le menu sans aucune photo des plats pour saliver dessus (dommage).
Prix: accessible & raisonnable.
This is one of the few Halal Thai restaurants in Montreal. The outdoor ambience is good & service is quick & efficient.
We ordered Mango Salad & Papaya salad. Both were good but I prefer the Mango salad. For the main course we ordered Pad Thai & Tofu Fried Rice. I didn't like either one. The dishes were bland & lacked flavour.
Overall, if you are looking for Halal Thai, it's worth trying out.

We showed up at 6pm with no one in restaurant yet staff was very distracted so service was spotty. If you are from the states just know they are super reservations heavy so I saw people walk into this almost empty restaurant & they said no to seat them. Food was good so I'd go back when in town but definitely get reservation to avoid the hassle.
The service is spectacular, the food is literally a chefs kiss, so delicious so authentic! Also first time trying to mango sticky rice as a dessert, overall sooo great! I feel I could eat here almost everyday. We had the chicken pad Thai, red curry & green curry. & wow, will definitely be coming here again next time I'm in Montreal! I can't remember my waiters name, but he was tall, very nice & accommodating! Great experience overall
It was my husband & I's first time at Den Sen Cuisine Thaïlandaise & we were blown away!!! Everything was so delicious, portions were PERFECT & service was awesome! We can't wait to come again! We also ordered the green curry & spring rolls but devoured them before we could take a photo haha.
I came to this restaurant to try it out after a Thai friend recommended it. We ordered Yum Talay, soup Tom Kha with chicken & Pad Ka Prao with beef. Everything was so delicious & flavorful with attractive colors. We finished with Creme brulee pandan & sticky rice with mango which were absolutely top-notch. I just wish that the amount were bigger. I'm Asian, but even after eating all that food, I still didn't feel full.
Service guy was fast & friendly, I felt cared :)
We're fan now & will come back for sure.
I love my Issan papaya salad but it's a bit too salty, same as the Pad see ew. This brought me back to Thailand fr. I was surprised that they have ice cream with mango sticky rice too, it's sooooo GOOD! The owner is super friendly, let us tried the new dish.
I hate to see comments like'I've been to so many Thai restaurants it didn't taste like other Thai restaurants''the food is REPULSIVE' DO YOUR RESEARCH! Each part of Thailand has its own unique flavor, & they're not just sweet & sour!
Like EXCUSE me? You ordered papaya with stinky fish sauce & you're here complaining?!!!! Maybe ask before you order it?! I'm not even Thai but I feel the disrespect! That's really disrespectful to a restaurant which is trying to make authentic food ! Maybe you should just keep going to your whitewashed Thai restaurants! You don't belong to here. 100% uneducated ignorant & not well cultured!
Food was great, well seasoned with great use of fresh ingredients. Staff was positive, helpful in their suggestions. Food was served quickly & priced well & used to have fair portions, however portion sizes have dropped somewhat. However , Definitely still coming back & telling friends & family.
