I love their beef soup & their spring rolls. I went there a bit before closing time yet the owner was very accommodating to me & my son. You could tell she cares about her business & her customers.
Très bonne nourriture, tout était frais & délicieux. Les portions sont vraiment grandes. On a pris la soupe Phnom Pen, riz frit aux crevettes, nouilles sautées & pad Thaï. Même qualité pour tous les plats. Belle découverte. Je recommande.
Je vais là depuis plusieurs années déjà entant qu'étudiante & c'est une excellente place. La nourriture est super bonne (soupe wonton & rouleau printemps avec la sauce omg) & le service est efficace & sympatique. C'est vraiment de la restauration rapide mais la qualité est top. Sinon c'est sur que les prix ont grimpé à travers le temps mais c'est encore résonnable. Les portions sont bonnes & contrairement à certains avis que j'ai lu, je trouve que ça se voit que la bouffe est fraîche. Bref, je vous recommande fortement!
C'est l'un de mes restaurants favoris!
À date, j'ai essayé plusieurs assiettes (pad thai, nid d'oiseau, sauté, rouleau de printemps, soupe), & je n'ai jamais été déçu!
Les rouleaux de printemps sont frais! Même lors de la livraison, les assiettes sont chaudes & bien emballées (livraison avec Uber depuis tout récemment).
C'est la meilleure soupe WongTong de Laval selon-moi! Ils sont copieux, bien garnis, goûteux, le bouillon est savoureux & les portions sont généreuses!
Vous pouvez manger sur place (très minime comme salle), mais la majorité des gens viennent récupérer leur commande!
À essayer au moins une fois!
J'étais tellement heureuse de retrouver mon resto préféré du vieux Ste-Rose! Malheureusement, j'ai vite déchanté.
Les prix ont beaucoup augmenté & le goût n'y est plus. Pas que ce soit mauvais mais ça manque de saveur. C'est pas comme avant.
Les ailes de poulet sont coupées en deux, moins croustillantes & fades. Les rouleaux impériaux sont durs comme du carton & insipides. Le porc tranché de la soupe est trop dur & il manque la saucisse.
Le Kor Ko était ok sans plus & ils n'ont pas mis le bouillon à part pour la commande à emporter, bien que j'aie demandé.
Je vais retourner dans quelques semaines pour une dernière chance, en espérant qu'ils fassent quelques améliorations.
We've been going to Khmer Express for a few years & were very happy to see that they finally reopened.
They now take credit cards which is very convenient.
The staff is as usual very friendly.
However, since the change in owners, the taste on most dishes we used to order is not as good. The fried chicken pieces are smaller, use less batter, & less seasoning than before.
The fried rice had almost no seasoning.
The imperial rolls are now with chicken & the texture is mushy instead.
The ke tirv phnom penh is almost as good as before - but the soup lacks the distinct old school Khmer Express flavor.
& lastly the prices have gone up significantly since before the reopening; this combined with the less pleasing food makes us more reticent to come back as often as we did.
We're going to probably try it again in a few months once they get their footing; as they just reopened.
Little gem in Laval!! Kind staff, affordable prices & amazing food. You can't go wrong with the Loc Lac, fried rice, soups, spring rolls, chicken wings... Go try!
***Update since new owner***
Don't expect the same culinary experience. They are just not quite there yet. The fried vegetable spring is the same, the taro one is definitely less good than before. The 2 meat dishes I took, the meat is just very dry. Cut too small. The meats had some sauce before after coming off the grill. Now just under seasoned & dry. Also never got the lime sauce with the Lok Lak. Going with 4 stars because maybe with some time, they will get better...
10/10 would recommend. I've been several times & have always been pleased. The restaurant is clean, & the staff polite & efficient. The food is fresh & not overly seasoned....they let the food stand on its own merit! The portions are big & fair for the price. I recommend perhaps asking for take-out even if you plan to dine-in as the portions are large & they will charge you a small fee for takeout packaging. The Cha Loc Lac, Pad Thai, & beef soup are my go-to's snd they never disappoint. *****Edit: I've been twice since originally reviewing & I can say I will not be returning after the last time! The food is inconsistent in quality, flavour, & quantity. The shrimp pad Thai was overcooked including the noodles, the FIVE pieces of shrimp were bone dry & low-quality. For $17, a dish of mostly rice noodles should have more than five low-budget shrimp & you shouldn't have to Where's Waldo for the egg neither. There clearly is no passion for the food & it's evident after going several times as the dishes are hit or miss. Personally, they can miss me with that as I don't give my hard-earned money to establishments that don't appreciate my patronage, & don't seem to comprehend that in a business transaction the outcome needs to be satisfactory for both parties!*****
