Hole in the wall place... it's a bit confusing when you approach the building since there are multiple restaurants & banners hanging. This place is on the first floor. We had vegetarian food there for dinner that day - & all the food was pretty good. The Tom kha soup was delicious, & the mango salad was popping with flavor. We requested that the restaurant sub tofu & they we got plenty of it!!! The curry was authentic - thin & slightly runny & I'm told authentic Thai curries often are. We didn't try any dessert. Gui was the only server & there were 3 tables occupied & more tables turning - although slowly- as time went by. She did a great job of hustling around & managing the tables with a smile. The portions are fairly small, so be prepared to order some more.
I'm totally in love with this adorable Thai restaurant! It's like stepping back into the days of enjoying scrumptious Thai street food on Khaosan Road. The food was absolutely amazing; it was like savoring homemade meals in Thailand. 🇹🇭 I even had the chance to customize the spiciness level of my pad thai & stir-fried basil crispy pork. & oh, the heavenly mango sticky rice for dessert, such a fantastic touch to serve fresh & piping hot Thai authentic dishes straight from the wok. We even got to see the wokhei technique in action! A huge shoutout to the Lady Chef, 👍👍Don't miss out on the Tam thad (mixed combination papaya salad 🌶 sweet sticky with durian & coconut milk, it's so unique & it's the ONLY place in Montreal that serves this. I'll be back againg for sure

Take out so can't comment on the atmosphere but it's a small clean restaurant. The cooking is done in an open kitchen so you can watch them prepare your meal. I had the sweet & sour crispy chicken with Rice & pad Thai. Authentic & good quality & decent servings. In town for the F1 race & went back second time for a meal.
Tasty, authentic & a great value! We were there on a Saturday evening. Ordered tom yum, papaya salad, sticky rice & fried ginger with tofu. Great flavour & the owner is incredibly welcoming. Amazing find on St Denis!
Finally!!! Amazing thai restaurant!! I went 2 times within 3 days! If you want try authentic som tham salad (papaya salad) ask it with salted crab Its just so good!! & all the employees are just so kind!! Yesterday i did papaya salad to go, & the employee was : oh hey!! Welcome back! (She remembered me!) Please give a try to this restaurant! You wont regret! See you soon :)
I rarely left google comments but this time 5 stars goes to Khao San Resto Thaï. The food was carefully made & portions were reasonable according to its price. As a passionate cook myself, I've noticed so many thoughtful details in their food (compare to other restaurants in Montreal, you can tell that details make a huge difference in food quality). The herbs, spices, types of protein, are all very authentically chosen & right on the spot👍 their sticky rice were warm-out-of-the-steam. Every dishes shown in the picture is a must try. Worth multiple visits.
This place is wonderful vibes, great food, excellent services. We would like to say Som Tum Thai is the best authentic Thai food ever. We enojy eating 🙏🙏.

The best authentic Thai restaurant in Montreal 😍 Need to try tomyum soup, pad thai, especially Papaya salad with extra crispy pork 💯 Taste delicious - Friendly service 👍🏻
By very far the best & most authentic Thai food I've had in Montreal. For a moment, while I ate my pad see ew, I felt like I was back in the streets of Bangkok. The genuine smiles & warm welcome of the staff confirmed to me that this was the real deal. I can't wait to come back & try the rest of the menu. Aroi mak mak! Kop khun krap! 🙏
