Overall, Le Petit Dek Sen earns praise for authentic Thai flavors, with Pad Thai and Khao Pad delivering bright, balanced profiles and tofu that is well seasoned, while the mango sticky rice is a standout; the kitchen is clean and the staff are friendly, portions are generous and prices reasonable, and vegetarian options are appreciated. Some reviews mention slower service and longer waits between courses or for deliveries, reflecting busy periods, but the overall vibe remains casual and welcoming and many look forward to returning.
In my opinion, best pad thai I've had in a while!! For someone who goes out with friends & can't have anything spicy, I ADORE this pad thai!! Flavorful & fresh everytime I get it! The other dishes are also excellent for anyone loving spice (says my husband lol) & very warm service! I was suggested the taro surprise bags & YUM! Great crunch & a perfect appetizer for carb lovers :P
I've had a lot of Pad Thai but this one had a totally unique (& wonderful) taste profile. Lightly smoky, sweet & salty. The tofu is also well seasoned & very tasty.
The Khao Pad had rice that was perfectly fried, with garlicky undertones & similarly delicious tofu.
Regret not having found this place sooner (they opened in Dec 2025 & would have really helped brighten winter) but I'm eager to go back!
Food was exceptional. Service was super warm & attentive. Come hungry & order lots of different dishes. Probably my new favourite mango sticky rice in Montreal (& I've tried a lot of spots).
Good prices, & filling portions.
Taste : Plates were not spicy enough, we requested extra chillies to complement the meal. Fried egg was room temperature.
Service : my only real complaint is about the slow service despite us being the only customers there…taking orders, prepping food, everything took way too long. We saw the chef leave the restaurant then come back to prepare our mains, leaving about 30 mins wait between our appetizers & main dishes.
We got the appetizers right away, but waited an hour for the main dishes which never came. Asked for take-out instead (another 10 mins.). I guess the reason was they had one cook & there were a lot of delivery orders. The waitress was very nice. The music, unfortunately it was stuck on one song that played over & over.'Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now', quite funny thinking about it now.
Came in here looking for vegan food, the chef cooked me up dinner with a big smile & it was ready in the blink of an eye. I've been vegetarian for 15 years & this might be the best tofu i've ever had.
I was impressed with the taste of the food, just like eating in Thailand. The food was delicious, the staff were polite & friendly, & the restaurant was clean. I will go back to eat again.
Le Petit Dek sen.. is an authentic that food. Hidden gem in Montreal.. We order some appetizers, Somtum & TomYum noodle soup is the best !!! The staff is very nice & our server very friendly! If you visiting Montreal & craving Asian food!! Don't missed out .. I'm recommend 👍🏼
