One of the best Thai places out there!!
Incredibly fresh & delicious spring rolls & some of the best fried rice I've ever had!! & the service was incredible!!
We had the pad thai, red curry & mango sticky rice. The flavours was amazing; it was way better than we expected. The mango sticky rice was just okay. Their price is a bit high but that was expected for the location.
Great place & good food. Had the tom kha (18$?) & it was really nice. No noodles in the soup but I added the extra jasmin rice (+2$) & it was enough for a dinne
Really great place with excellent food & staff. We had the pad thai, fried rice & drunken noodle which very prepared really well. The service was amazing & the staff were very inviting. We will certainly revisit next time.

This restaurant is truly a gem. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by Chris who had such amazing energy. The food was phenomenal. The portions were great. The chefs made everything fresh in the open kitchen & you can literally taste it. Everything was seasoned & cooked to perfection. We had to thank the chefs personally. I will definitely revisit if I'm back in Montreal!
Highly recommend the Calamari, Shrimp Pad Thai, Tum Yum Fried Rice, Tofu Drunken Noodle & Mango Sticky Rice!
The restaurant was packed when we arrived & we were lucky to have gotten a table without having to wait. I would suggest reserving a table if you plan to visit this restaurant. Not only was the restaurant crowded, I felt like there was very little space in between the tables so dining here felt a bit less intimate than I would have preferred. The food itself was great, I enjoyed the flavours but it was a little bit too salty & I wish the food would be a bit spicier. The mango sticky rice dessert was so pretty but I also felt like the sweetness was lacking a bit. The service was decent. The waitress was running around the whole night so she couldn't really refill our water or check up on us but she was still polite & respectful. She wasn't really friendly or welcoming due to the rush but she was still working really efficiently & the food was served really quickly after we ordered which was surprising considering the amount of people at the restaurant.
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 .

This is a great spot to eat & enjoy a fun time socializing with friends. The restaurant is small, cozy, & beautifully decorated. The food is definitely worth making a detour for.
While we were seated, we saw many people coming in to order takeout-it's clearly a favorite among locals. The menu was thoughtfully designed, & the presentation of the dishes matched the quality of the taste.
If you decide to drop by, try the pineapple fried rice-it was a favorite in our group! Also, don't miss the mango sticky rice. & be sure to explore the rest of the menu-they have some excellent noodle options as well.
Lastly, I want to highlight the service. It's easy to forget that the person serving us plays a big role in the overall dining experience. A special shoutout to JOOI, who served our table-you were amazing!
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!
We traveled from Philadelphia in the US & this little restaurant's food blew our mind compared to most of the Thai restaurants back in Philly. Very cozy atmosphere. HIGHLY recommend to try the papaya salad!! (we ordered mild spicy) & mango sticky rice.
Food is really good, plus the mango sticky rice is the best I've found in Montreal so far, the staff is extremely kind & I think I'll be coming back quite often.

LA meilleure place pour un bon repas thaïlandais !
Une merveilleuse découverte, notre premier restaurant qui ressemble le plus à la cuisine comme en Thaïlande.
Je recommande fortement.
