Discover Cambodian cuisine in this resto-bar located in Verdun. Located on one of the most beloved streets of Montreal, Street Monkeys is the perfect place to enjoy a dinner with friends or family.
Overall, reviews describe Les Street Monkeys as a vibrant spot offering inventive Cambodian-inspired cuisine with a strong emphasis on sharing plates, where many dishes and flavors are praised, from papaya salad and wasabi shrimp ceviche to stuffed wings, cod in coconut curry and other fusion twists. The service is repeatedly noted as attentive and friendly, and the bar program with cocktails earns frequent praise, along with a lively, colorful ambiance that is great for groups, dates, or casual nights out.

Staff were friendly & the service was amazing. Good atmosphere. Loved where we sat which was by the chef counter & we get to watch them make our amazing food. We had the steak & the eggplant salad. Rating was 10/10
Une expérience culinaire exceptionnelle. Un personnel vraiment sympathique. J'adore y aller au moins une fois par année. Seul petit bémol, les portions sont un peu petite.
Je laisse très rarement des reviews mais ce restaurant le mérite amplement! Je n'ai jamais été décue, & les personnes que j'amène avec moi sont toujours très agréablement surprise! Les plats sont divins, la présentation, les saveurs, la diversité...tout est là. Les cocktails sont toujours très bon & le service professionnel & courtois! Je travail en restauration depuis très longtemps, & le bon service est devenu très rare....très hâte d'y retourner!
I have been several times, & am never disappointed. The food is so flavourful & delicious. The stuffed chicken wings are to die for. The fish amok is also a win, but would have liked a little more sauce on the plate. The lamb was scrumptious as well. The papaya salad was a little underwhelming, it missed a little oomph even though we asked for it spicy. A pet peeve i have when i go to a SHARING restaurant is when they serve you an odd number in the plate. 3 wings, 3 lamb chops. I mean, I nearly had to fight my companion, but in the end we split them equitably. :) The drinks are also very good.

Had another amazing meal at Street Monkeys last night. Our server Raquel was friendly & accommodating, & the food was innovative & delicious! Highly recommend!
Really cool space with fantastic food. We got the steak (forgot to take a picture), squid, veggies, & stuffed wings. The steak was packed with flavor. Absolutely delicious. The squid was perfectly cooked.

Un resto dans lequel on découvre des saveurs de l'Asie du sud est & des déliceux cocktails. Rapport qualité/goût/prix excellent. Le flanc de porc était tout simplement à tomber par terre
Popped in on a busy Friday night. Despite having no reservations we were promptly set up with a table & walked through the menu. I think at some point half the staff was at our table for something & they were all attentive & personable. Great crew working that night. The wings were crispy & I'd do some shady stuff for the recipe for the sauce. If they have the house-made sausages, you owe it to yourself to try them (& I'm not even a sausage fan).
Fantastic food - unique & tasty dishes made to share. Service was very friendly & helpful for choosing among all the enticing options on the menu. Truly a montreal gem.
Toujours un plaisir d'aller manger à ce restaurant. Le menu est rempli de délicieux plats qui réjouissent nos papilles gustatives. Belle ambiance & le service est super.
