Service ultra sympathique & rapide. La serveuse était joviale & nous a fait des recommandations pour le menu. Pour ma part, je voulais un pad krapao (sauté au basilic & porc haché) & je le voulais le plus épicé possible. C'était épicé, & c'était très bon! J'ai pu goûté au curry vert de mon ami aussi & houlala... délicieux! Un tout petit peu cher à mon goût pour les portions qu'on nous a servis. Mais satisfaisit quand même.

Je suis sortie du travail avec une envie de pad thaï. Un peu par hasard, ma copine a choisi cette adresse. Quasiment 30 minutes de trajet, & bien je ne suis pas déçue. Nous avons pris la brochette de poulet en entrée, le riz frit à l'ananas avec du poulet (j'ai changé d'avis une fois sur place), & ma copine a pris le pad thaï. Vous connaissez cette sensation de redécouvrir un plat ? Eh bien, c'est ce que ce restaurant m'a fait ressentir. & c'est comme ça qu'on reconnaît un bon plat : quand il sait se réinventer. Pour le dessert, j'ai pris le riz collant à la mangue, & le goût du riz parfumé aux fleurs se marie parfaitement avec celui du fruit bien sucré. Je recommande chaudement. Le service était nickel, & l'ambiance assez décontractée. Franchement, j'ai envie d'oublier le goût pour recommencer. (J'en ai eu pour 60$ pour 2 & nous sommes « remplis »
I gave this place a bad review but I went there to eat this weekend & the food was definitely much much better! I guess I had them on a bad day on uber eats! I just changed my review & recommend this place! Traditional taste like when I was in Thailand. I gave 4 stars just because my first time was bad with small portion. I guess uber eats they serve smaller portions? Or maybe they upped the portions. Thank you for improving the food! Thank you I really enjoyed my food this time!
Not my favorite Thai experience but also not the absolute worst. I got the pad thai with tofu & the vegetable egg rolls. Starting off with the egg rolls, they were tasty & generously sized, but the ramekin with the chili sauce was half full, so I had to be stingy with dipping for it to be enough for the 4 egg rolls. Very small detail, but I feel like it's not difficult to add another tablespoon of sauce. The tofu with the pad thai was dry & chewy, & while half the tofu was fried, the other half was barely fried (see pictures). Additionally, none of the tofu had any salt or seasoning, so it simply tasted bland. I love fried tofu, so this killed the mood. The pad thai itself was alright. The sauce was actually good, but I'm not sure if they added enough to disperse evenly because there would be many bites that didn't taste like anything & then many bites that tasted flavorful. Lastly, I asked for spicy, & it tasted completely regular. I can't imagine what the difference between what I ate & what mild/regular would be. I was starving, & I'm not anymore, so that's a positive, but I'd search elsewhere if I wanted a more well-rounded pad thai experience (especially if you love tofu).
Most authentic pad thai I've ever had in montreal. The bean sprouts were crunchy & the rice noodles were cooked perfectly. The red curry dish was perfectly spicy with a nice portion of rice.

Nous avons mangé le pad see ew & le porc croustillant & tout était très délicieux! La cuisine est authentique & la serveuse était très gentille! Je vous le recommande fortement!
Food was pretty good, but the drinks could be a bit more concentrated. Sad they didnt have any lychees with their lychee drink as shown in pics but they did offer 50% off. The restaurant is quite small & was very hot. Got the crispy pork & it was pretty good.
We were craving Thai food after a long day of sightseeing, & this was the perfect place! The food was delicious, & the staff were absolutely great! I would say that the friendly smile & attentiveness of the lady who waited on us is what made the experience truly remarkable (I regret not catching her name). I especially liked the delicious Thai Green Milk Tea, which I had never had (or seen) before, & I highly recommend it. It was nice that I could switch the jasmine rice to sticky rice on my order - just can't have enough of sticky rice! If I am ever in Montreal again, I would 100% make a beeline for this place!
Lovely new discovery! Food was absolutely delicious, flavourful & fresh. Highly recommend the nam tok (beef) & the thai iced tea. Papaya salad was too spicy for us but still good. You can modify the spice level to your preference. Staff was kind & checking up on us regularly. Will definitely be back to try more items!
Khao Sand offers a pleasant dining experience with its spacious interior, perfect for both dine-in & take-out options. The servers are ok friendly, not a lot though. The pricing is fair, making it a good value for the quality offered. While the menu has a variety of enticing options, the fried rice, in particular, is good but not exceptional. It meets the basic expectations but doesn't stand out compared to other dishes on the menu. Overall, this is a ok choice for Thai cuisine, especially if you're looking for a comfortable place to enjoy a meal without breaking the bank.
