Dek Sen Cuisine Thaïlandaise est largement perçu comme un endroit cosy et accueillant à Montréal où des saveurs thaï authentiques se mêlent à un menu halal, avec des plats comme curry vert, panang, pad thai, pad see ew, khao soi, tom yum, salade de papaye et mango sticky rice, salués pour leurs saveurs vives et leurs portions généreuses; l'espace et le service sont décrits comme chaleureux et attentifs, ce qui en fait un bon endroit pour se retrouver entre amis ou découvrir de nouveaux plats. Certaines critiques évoquent des délais de service occasionnels ou des soucis de confort, comme le chauffage insuffisant, et quelques remarques soulignent des changements de personnel ou de direction qui peuvent affecter la régularité, mais dans l'ensemble Dek Sen est considéré comme une option thaï authentique et solide à Montréal et beaucoup indiquent qu'ils reviendront.
I came to this Thai restaurant after seeing so many great reviews, & overall it was a very enjoyable dinner experience. We ordered the salt & pepper shrimp, beef fried rice, chicken khao soi, & Tom Yum soup.
The salt & pepper shrimp was definitely the highlight for me. The shell was crispy while the shrimp inside stayed juicy & tender, almost like tempura. The seasoning was really layered - spicy, slightly sweet, & with a subtle numbing flavor that made it especially addictive.
The beef sauce in the fried rice was excellent & very flavorful, though the beef itself was a little on the tougher side.
The chicken khao soi had a rich & fragrant curry broth, & I could even taste a hint of satay-like flavor in it, which I really liked. That said, I felt the egg noodles could have been a bit chewier. Also, besides the chicken leg & pickled vegetables, I think adding more toppings or side ingredients - like bean sprouts or fresh herbs - would make the dish even better by adding more texture, freshness, & variety.
The Tom Yum soup was a bit heavier & stronger in flavor than I expected, though I'm not sure if that's closer to the authentic Thai style.
The food was amazing, the restaurant feels very welcoming & homey, the food took a little long to come but the taste was definitely worth the wait. We got the chicken wings, the spicy papaya salad & the curry lamb. We also got the panda crème brûlée for dessert which was light & the perfect way to end our meal! Everything was delicious but the lamb was definitely the highlight, some of the best Thai food we've had, thank you we will definitely be back!!!
Dek Sen is hands down the best Thai in the plateau! The food is really yummy, fairly price & the management / staff are always great!
Cudos to the manager for keeping a good team! If you're going there, you HAVE to try the Beef Panang!
Restaurant de type familial.

The food is a 7.5/10. The big plus of this restaurant is that the meat is all halal. The service was lacking but the wait staff were nice on the rare occasion they came to your table. The Chicken Pad Thai wasn't as flavorful as I had hoped & the Chicken Khao Gai Pad was really rich & the chicken was cooked very well, however the rice was quite underwhelming. Lastly, portion sizes were excellent & the area is close to dessert places.
A spacious & comfortable spot that is perfect for catching up with friends over Thai food. We ordered the mango salad, green curry with chicken, & beef pad thai. The service was attentive & genuinely friendly, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Would definitely return to explore more of the menu.

Dek Sen Cuisine Thaïlandaise is a fantastic hidden gem in Montreal. The space is cozy & welcoming, & the food is clearly made with care & authentic flavours.
I ordered the lamb, & it was outstanding - tender, perfectly cooked, & packed with rich, aromatic spices that felt both comforting & bold. You can tell the kitchen knows what it's doing.
As someone who spends a lot of time walking Montreal's neighbourhoods & recommending local spots during my walking tours, this is exactly the kind of restaurant I love highlighting: locally owned, consistent, & genuinely memorable. It's a great stop whether you're a local or visiting the city & looking to eat well after exploring on foot.
Highly recommend Dek Sen if you're into authentic Thai cuisine & discovering great food in Montreal.

Loved DEK SEN what a nice little culinary trip to Thailand right in the heart of montreal. Authentic & flavourful food. Loved the Panang, absolutely mouth watering! The little hints of lemon grass had me wanting more. The salt & pepper shrimp on their specials where so crispy & well seasoned. Lets not forget the thai tea, so fresh & perfect amount of sweetness. If i had any positive criticism I'd say the papaya salad lacked a bit of heat. I loved my experience & would definitely return. Thank you for having me :)
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.
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
