Review Summary

Mama Bangkok is widely celebrated for serving what many consider the best and most authentic pad thai in Montreal, with generous portions and excellent value for money. While visitors should be prepared to bring cash for in-person orders and note that operating hours can sometimes be inconsistent, the quality of the food, including the popular fish tacos and various tofu dishes, keeps customers returning regularly. Although some diners have noted varied experiences with the counter service, the consensus remains that the exceptional flavors and high-quality ingredients make this a standout destination for Thai cuisine.

The customer service is extremely poor. It's unfortunate because the food itself is quite good. They really need to improve their attitude toward customers. Also, cash only? That's surprising & inconvenient.

Their hours of operation is not consistent with Google Maps. I arrived according to their opening hours & it was closed , the owner had a terrible attitude about me trying to order & asking about their opening hours, which was weird…
They've cut down their menu by a lot too, now serving pretty much just pad thai & not much else.

UPDATE: The food gave me food poisoning. I felt unwell the entire evening following & then threw up. DO NOT EAT HERE

Everything is awkward with mama bankok: the location is awkward, looking through the gigantic menu plastered on the wall is awkward, ordering through their tablet is awkward, the service is awkward, the restrictive limits on how to pay is awkward, & the lack of chopsticks is awkward. Even the seating is awkward.

They bumped their price by a lot (pad thai chicken used to be 12, it costs me 19 total now) & I disagree with all the other comments saying this is the best pad thai or a very authentic one. I found it to be closer in taste to a Thai Express pad thai. Mine in particular was so salty I couldn't have more than a few bites.

By the 1st of january 2026 they are going to switch to cash only. That paired with everything else (especially the price bump), I don't see why you would ever choose this place over the hundred other asian restaurants around.

Tried to go to another restaurant but it was closed so went for this one. Worst idea! I should have checked the reviews. First the service was so bad, plus I get so sick after eating the shrimp pad Thai, vomit multiple times tonight….someone needs to check their hygiene in the kitchen

Pad Thai was delicious & the Tom Yum was good! Service was fairly quick.

Amazing food. I order pad Thai with breaded chicken & it's my favourite pad Thai. The self-service system can be finicky but it's not a problem once you know how to use it. I never had an issue with service from the cashier (maybe it's a different person) but they've been nice & to-the-point.

Hands down the best value for money!

Best Pad Thai in Montreal hands down. The first thing I do when I get back to the city after travelling abroad is getting a Pad Thai from Mama Bangkok. Ignore all the snarky borderline xenophobic reviews about the lady behind the register, I've been going to this place for years & she has always been polite & attentive. I will forever be recommending this place
