Découvrez la cuisine cambodgienne dans ce resto-bar situé à Verdun. Situé sur l'une des rues les plus appréciées de Montréal, Street Monkeys est l'endroit idéal pour profiter d'un souper entre amis ou en famille.
Dans l'ensemble, les avis décrivent Les Street Monkeys comme un endroit vivant proposant une cuisine d'inspiration cambodgienne inventive, avec un fort accent sur le partage de plats, où de nombreux plats et saveurs sont salués, de la salade de papaye et du ceviche de crevettes au wasabi jusqu'aux ailes farcies, au curry de morue et d'autres touches fusion.

Streetmonkeys is such a hidden gem. The food is incredible-fresh, flavorful, & you can really taste the authenticity in every dish. The mix of Thai & Cambodian flavors is unique & sooooo well executed. Every bite felt thoughtfully prepared & perfectly balanced. The chef Tota is an artist behind the counter- try to get bar seats by the kitchen - its so much fun to watch them prep all the delicious meals that come out platted!
The atmosphere is fun. The staff is super friendly & attentive without being overbearing, which makes the whole experience even better. Ask for'mom's spring rolls'!

We recently tried Les Street Monkeys & was impressed by the authenticity of the Cambodian cuisine. The flavors felt true to tradition, with well-balanced spices & ingredients that gave each dish a genuine, homemade taste. It's clear that care has been taken to stay faithful to Cambodian culinary roots, which is something not always easy to find.
The menu offers a good representation of classic dishes, & the overall quality of the food is solid. Each plate delivers bold, distinct flavors that make the experience enjoyable, especially for those looking to explore something beyond more common Asian cuisines.
However, the main downside is the portion size relative to the price. While the food is undeniably authentic & well-prepared, the portions feel a bit small for what you pay. This can make the overall value less appealing, particularly if you come in expecting a more filling meal.
That said, if authenticity is your priority & you're curious about Cambodian flavors, Les Street Monkeys is still worth a visit. Just be mindful of the pricing & portion sizes when ordering.
Cerviche was strong wasabi but delicious. Messiah was delicious. Squid also great with side of rice. Fried tamarind fish was ok. We should've gone with the cod. Overall great experience.

Parfait mélange entre la cuisine de rue & la gastronomie. Beaux mélanges de saveurs, sans prétention. Le menu de groupe est exceptionnel, 8 à 9 plats à partager. Je vous garantis que vous n'aurez pas faim en sortant.
The food was great & unique. Im glad i went. I would say it's probably a good date night joint where you're not trying to fill yourself up to the point where you get the itis.
The only negative would be that it's a bit pricey... let's just say it's also not the type of place I would go to everynight or week even. A bday celebration here would be nice if you get where im coming from.
Le ceviche de crevettes toujours aussi délicieux. La prochaine fois je fais la morue grillée que j'ai pu goûter. Le service a été particulièrement agréable & impeccable hier malgré ma maladresse & un beau dégât de limonade. Miam miam miam! Merci!
Cambodian cuisine is rare in Montreal, but Street Monkeys pays great homage to it. We started with the wasabi ceviche, which was so delicious we were practically drinking the dressing by the end. The stir-fried squid was tender & flavourful, & the fried cod curry was saucy yet somehow remained perfectly crispy. The bone marrow was also absolutely decadent. This was my first time trying Cambodian food, & Street Monkeys set the bar high.
I really wanted to love this spot, but unfortunately I had such a mediocre experience. First, the folks here were very pleasant, & I acknowledge we did show up to eat relatively late. However, our food came out in the most erratic & illogical way. We first received our ceviche. It was very flagrant, which was fine because we like spicy & had read the caution note on the menu, but I would believe the note. Then, the rice, skewers, & Chinese broccoli came out. This would have been fine, but my partner is pescatarian, & the subsequent dish did not come out for another thirty minutes. I will note, I did enjoy it. As a result, the broccoli got cold. It also lacked flavor. Another thirty minutes after, the final dish came out. At this point, we didn't even want it.
Herein is the next major issue. We sat at the kitchen counter, & had complete perspective of the kitchen. We watched as the kitchen scraped what little bit of curry sauce was left in the container to make our last dish. It confuses me that a restaurant would have an open kitchen & not be mindful of their behavior while customers are observing. This is where it gets better. I watched as staff salted & floured raw fish & then touched bread & garnished dishes. There was one instance where the waiter fully dapped up (shook hand) of a customer & proceeded to sprinkle some cilantro with that same hand on someone's dish. I can respect the communal & chill vibe they're going for, but the staff ordering pizza & taking shots while customers wait for food, is just bad business. To top it off, the meal was $100. I didn't say anything because frankly I didn't think they'd be receptive based on the above. All in all, I would struggle to recommend.
Les Street Monkeys is a trendy little restaurant with chic decor & tapas-style Cambodian dishes.
If you're vegan, your options are limited, but you can still eat well. In the past they had grilled corn on the cob. Recently they had sauteed chinese broccoli, a mushroom & cabbage salad, tofu with noodles, & pumpkin & tapioca coconut milk pudding.
You have 2 hours on the dot until you have to make way for the next reservation.

Nous y sommes allés à plusieurs reprises, & nos premières expériences étaient prometteuses.
C'est pourquoi la déception est d'autant plus grande lors de notre dernière visite. La qualité des plats n'était pas au rendez-vous. Manque de saveur, exécution approximative, loin du niveau initial. Dommage.
La nourriture était incroyable, la formule de petits plats à partager est parfaite pour pouvoir tout essayer sur le menu. Je recommande de venir en petit groupe (4-6 personnes) pour vraiment profiter. L'ambiance est super avec de la bonne musique, pas trop forte, des lumières d'ambiances & une décoration impeccable. Le service était absolument parfait & les plats arrivaient dans un bon ordre selon les saveurs & la lourdeurs des poids. Une merveilleuse découverte.
