Guided by Chefs who will take you through an immersive culinary experience, you will be swept away by the creative flow and the dynamic atmosphere of this place. Le Mēkong brings an innovative and modern touch by reinterpreting the traditional dishes of Southeast Asia.
"GO WITH THE FLOW. EMBARK ON AN UNFORGETTABLE TASTE ADVENTURE. "
Le Mēkong, which gets its name from the famous Asian river, draws its culinary inspiration from the countries that border it. Le Mēkong is an anchor that brings together different Asian identities, a friendly place where you can take the time to relax.
"We offer premium quality seafood that varies depending on the catch of the day," says Co-Owner and Chef Vinh Nguyen. Carnivores and vegetarians can rest assured: the menu also offers succulent meat dishes that can also be converted into vegetarian dishes.
Le Mekong earns praise for amazing food and service, with generous portions and a broad Asian menu that blends Thai influences with fresh, vibrant flavors. Dishes like beef skewers and crispy shrimp are favorites, while cocktails and a lively atmosphere add to the experience, including a pleasant terrace for warm evenings. The staff are described as friendly and attentive, making visits feel welcoming whether for a date night or a group dinner. While a few reviews mention slower service during peak times and some higher prices, the overall impression is of quality, consistency and memorable flavors that bring guests back.
Nice vibe, but the food didn't live up to the hype
Le Mékong is a really pretty restaurant the decor is modern, the atmosphere is great, & it's a nice spot for a night out. The service wasn't bad either. A little slow at times, but nothing crazy.
That said, the food was a letdown. We tried 6 dishes, & 3 of them were either way too salty or way too sweet. It felt like they were trying too hard with the flavors, but the balance just wasn't there. The biggest shock was the price one fish dish was $60, which didn't feel worth it at all for what we got.
Overall, it's a cute place to hang out, but the food & prices didn't match the experience. I might give it another shot in the future, but I wouldn't go back expecting anything amazing.
We came in & ordered two drinks & two main courses to share. We were impressed with the food taste. 15 minutes after the food arrived, someone came by & tried to pick up our plates while we are still eating. They repeated that three times at an interval of 15 minutes.
Typically a meal in a restaurant with drinks should be able to seat for minimum 1h30 & with notice.
I would not recommend this place to eat & relax.

Excellent resto pour les amateurs de nourriture asiatique. En plus, les portions sont généreuses. Seul petit bémol, l'étroitesse de la terrasse extérieure.
Restaurant chaleureux , les serveurs sont très accueillants. La nourriture est très bonne & en quantité généreuse. Je reviendrais pour tester la terrasse cet été.
Oh boy… this restaurant is great, but this sink is really not a fantastic one to urinate in. The door doesn't lock, the sink is mounted incredibly high, & the basin isn't very voluminous. But there is a pretty pattern on the wall behind. I guess that's something. I would return for the food, but not to pee in the sink.
Angela était notre serveuse & elle est particulièrement gentille ♥? le staff en général est gentil, mais elle, coup de coeur ! La nourriture est aussi très bonne ! Ceux qui ne tolère pas bien l'épicé, c'est la place idéale! J'ai toujours mangé avec des baguettes mon riz, donc j'étais mal à l'aise de manger mon riz avec une fourchette. J'ai demandé à Angela si c'était possible d'avoir une cuillère & c'est à ce moment qu'elle m'a proposé des baguettes ! La joie, le bonheur ! Elle a refait ma journée (^w^) évidemment ce n'est pas juste ça qu'elle a fait pour que je dise que c'est une perle rare :)
Le meilleur restaurant Thaï de Montréal, qualité des plats & les portions sont incroyables & le personnel est super.
Restaurant très propres je le recommande.

Belle ambiance & plats extraordinaires & savoureux. Les portions sont très généreuses. Nous avons hâte de retourner à ce restaurant pour essayer d'autres plats!

Malgré l excellant service & l ambiance, j ai l impression'd avoir gaspillé mon argent'. Les calmars frits étaient très gras & la viande du repas principal trempait dans une épaisse sauce salée & sans goût.
I took the crunchy shrimp dish & the flavours were absolutely wonderful but the whole dish was very greasy & i would have enjoyed some vegetables, although I should've read the menu better & chosen another dish that had veggies in it. My partner took the crunchy squid meal & really enjoyed it but it was very greasy. I don't believe this is authentic asian cuisine but it was extremely tasty nonetheless! Just maybe order a side of vegetables or something to add some balance to the meal. The portions were generous, which probably explains the high-ish price.
La bouffe était absolument délicieuse & goûteuse, j'ai goûté à tous les plats que mes amis avaient pris & tout était excellent ! Les portions sont généreuses & l'ambiance est cozy ! À refaire
