Mai Thai Cuisine is repeatedly described as an authentic Thai spot with bold, well balanced flavors, generous portions and a cozy open kitchen vibe on St Denis, where dishes such as Pad Thai, Tom Yum, Green Curry, Drunken Noodles, calamari, papaya salad and mango sticky rice are highlighted for freshness and depth, and spice levels can be adjusted to personal heat tolerance. Service is generally praised as friendly, fast and attentive, with a welcoming atmosphere, though a few experiences note busy times that slow down service or tight seating, and some guests mention price or occasional sweetness or saltiness in certain dishes. Overall Mai Thai Cuisine is seen as a standout destination for real Thai flavors and a warm, family run feel, with strong takeout and catering options and frequent plans to return.
Absolutely loved my experience at Mai Thai Cuisine! The food was delicious, fresh, flavorful, & beautifully prepared. Every dish we tried was full of authentic taste & perfectly cooked.
Very good authentic Thai food. The menu is like one you will find in Thailand. I had mine delivered & was very impressed, imagine it would taste even better inside the restaurant. You don't find Khao soi & Larb on many western Thai restaurant menus. Highly recommend

this restaurant is amazing!! the most authentic thai food my fiancé & i have had since visiting thailand🤤 so so so delicious! we will 100% be back next time we're in mtl
Wow! Everything is so delicious here & well proportioned! I've only ordered through uber eats & fell in love with this restaurant. Their Tom Yum Soup, Chicken red curry, Shrimp Pad Thai, Khao Soi are all so tasty & authentic! I had to stop going to the Thai restaurant near my home 😂
Very good, authentic Thai food. The food was very flavourful, fresh, large portions. We weren't a fan of the signature seafood dish as it was too salty, battered & deep fried which was not expected from the menu description. Nice atmosphere & service with Thai style decor & open kitchen.
Amazing Thai food in the heart of Montreal! Everything tasted authentic, fresh, & full of flavor-just like home-style Thai cooking. The dishes were beautifully presented & perfectly balanced, & the service was warm & welcoming. You can really feel the passion of a family-run restaurant. Highly recommend Mai Thai Cuisine if you're craving real Thai food on St-Denis!

We had a wonderful experience dining at Mai Thai. We were a group of 7 people, celebrating my uncles 90th birthday. We ordered the papaya salad, & calamari, they were incredible. The house sauces were humming with the right balance of sweet, sour & spicy.
For the mains, we ordered pad thai with shrimp, two from their signature collection, the crispy pork with Thai basil & green curry with chicken. Everything was outstanding & delish. The food is cooked in an open kitchen & our server Goui, ( I hope I got your name right! ) was such sweet & lovely person.
Nothing was overly spicy, we loved all the dishes, the portions were generous & the flavours very authentic.
The mango sticky rice, was just the right note to finish the night.
A fantastic combination of authenticity, flavour, great food & cozy ambience.
Can't wait to be back soon.
It was awesome place to have the authentic Thai . All my order dishes was delicious, especially the mango sticky rice. Papaya salad, pad sew, red curry & satays
The pad thai , if they add the fried tofu as garnish would absolute .
I can confidently say this was one of the best Thai meals I've ever had! Absolutely authentic, incredibly flavorful, & made with so much care. Every dish we ordered was a hit, & the service was just as impressive!
We started with the Bang Bang Shrimp Tornado, Thai Hot Wings, & crispy calamari, all cooked to perfection. The shrimp had the perfect crunch with that addictive sweet-spicy glaze, the wings were full of bold Thai flavor, & the calamari was tender inside with just the right crispiness.
For our mains, we had the Pad Thai, Fried Rice, & Drunken Noodles, each one was packed with flavor & had that signature balance of sweet, spicy, savory, & tangy that Thai cuisine is known for. The Drunken Noodles in particular were a standout - perfectly chewy noodles, fresh veggies, & a bold sauce with just the right heat.
On top of the amazing food, the service was truly 10/10. The staff were friendly, attentive, & made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived.
If you're craving authentic Thai food that's bursting with flavor & served with heart, this is the place. I'm already planning my next visit!
The quality of the food decreased incredibly! Last time I was there it was 2 years ago & the food was extremely good. It tastes like Thailand. Authentic. Now it's salty & too sweet. Nothing like before. We ordered a pat sew eu it was disappointing. I don't recommend it anymore.
Second time going there with friends. The times that I've gone there are never disappointing!
Best Thai food I've ever had in Mtl & the service is excellent as always! The waitress who served us (June 26, 2025) was super sweet & even thanked us in our native language (Tagalog) which was really nice. 🤭 She was also super kind to offer me another takeout box when I broke mine accidentally. 🤣
If you're ever on St-Denis & looking for authentic & delicious Thai food, highly recommend you check out this place.👌
I know I would go back. 😉
