Review Summary

Les Street Monkeys is widely recognized as a top destination in Verdun for authentic and creative Cambodian-inspired cuisine, frequently praised for its fresh, flavorful dishes like the stuffed chicken wings, wasabi ceviche, and coconut curry cod. While many diners enjoy the vibrant, relaxed atmosphere and highly attentive service, opinions on the experience vary. Frequent patrons appreciate the unique flavor profiles and the fun, open-kitchen environment, yet some visitors note that the music can become quite loud and the industrial-style seating may feel uncomfortable during longer meals. Although the quality is consistently highlighted, common points of contention among reviewers include the relatively small portion sizes relative to the price and occasional inconsistency in dish execution, leading to a polarizing mix of glowing recommendations and more reserved assessments.

Great atmosphere, great service, poor food. It feels like they're trying to be creative for the sake of it but quite lacking in development of all of the dishes

Ceviche: extremely wasabi spicy, i think vast majority wouldnt enjoy this dish. Should've added something to counter balance it. To be fair they did warn us about it i suppose.

Twa ko: the flavor of the sausages were very good, however the casing of the sausages were not chewable. Had to spit out all of the cases..

Fried cod red curry: nothing really bad about it like the other dishes, but nothing great about it. Cod was not at all seasoned & the dish, it was bland, i couldnt taste the fish at all but just the soft texture. I'm really not sure why it needed to be cod but any other protein because i think it would've been better

Also very small portions

Can't recommend this place highly enough. Came here on a whim. Got the papaya salad, stuffed drumsticks, beef skewers & pork belly curry. Everything was excellent but the stand-out for me were the drumsticks. Will definitely be back the next time I am in Montreal.

Those wasabi shrimp will give you nightmares & you will be back the next day. They're criminally good. You will tell all your friends & will want to start a cult. It wouldn't surprise me if the police arrested you guys for making food that's just too delicious. The drinks as well. So so so good.

First time there, it was recommended by my neighbors. & I have to say wow! The service, the food, the flavors & as out of this world! Thanks to the team also for the great service & attention. Will be back very soon! Also the prices are very reasonable, shared four dishes & had a drink each & it cost us 57$ before tips!

I have been here a few times, but this was the first time I had gone without a larger group. We ate at the chefs table & enjoyed watching the cooks work diligently.

The portions were not disappointing, we ordered a salad & one other dish each to share & left full.

The wasabi ceviche is not for the faint of heart. Order it only if you've eaten large chunks of wasabi before lol.

Cocktails were a 10/10

Definitely worth the expense

This is our first time visit to Combodian restaurant, street monkeys as a family. Though the food was not like a big one we are happy with the their unique menu & preparations. We loved the chicken skewers & the bone marrow soup. Overall great n different experience.
