Reviews consistently highlight Khao Soi for authentic Northern Thai flavors, with the Khao Soi itself, pad thai, and other staples praised for depth and balance, and the mango sticky rice often singled out as excellent. Dishes arrive in generous portions and the prices are viewed as fair or good value for the quality, with many noting reliable takeout and fast, friendly service. The restaurant is repeatedly described as one of the best Thai spots in Montreal, offering halal options and a welcoming, casual vibe that makes it a go-to for both dine-in and casual gatherings. A few caveats appear, including occasional saltiness or flavor balance issues, some dishes that feel less generous for the price, and occasional service or ambiance nits, but these are not the norm. Overall, Khao Soi comes across as a standout choice for authentic Thai, delivering flavorful, comforting meals and attentive service, with most guests eager to return.
Tried their Pad thai (requested extra spicy), tom yum soup & Calamari. They were open on Christmas day & served us a scrumptious meal.
Please try, thank you!
The food was amazing. But the waitress was so weird, she is getting too close while she was taking the order. She does not understand clearly when we're asking for tom yum soup, she keeps pointing on the menu. It was not professional at all, she does not give us any space as she was too close. Adding to top of that she was so pushy to let us leave the place as long as the place was not that busy & we're about to ask for dessert ; she did that by asking so many times if we need the bill. So we left without ordering the dessert cause of her behavior. She is not welcoming the customers at all & she is acting in a robotic way. I hope they can pay attention to how the waitress behaving as the food was top notch.

The Tom Yum Chiang Mai is honestly one of the most delicious & satisfying bowls of noodle soup I have ever had. So nuanced, tangy, & spicy. This restaurant is quite unassuming but I'm ready to say it may be serving some of the best Thai food in the city. Staff are really nice too ! I'm hooked
Wowwww!!!best thai food ever!!i can say could be better than in thailand itself!!the chef is phenomenal!!we enjoyed every single dish:the khao soi soup,the pad thai,the curry,the mango sticky rice,the thai iced tea.
Highly recommended 100/10.i'm sad that it took me so long to know that place!! The portions are very generous,& the food is so yummy & traditional!!
Really glad to have discovered this restaurant. Had the beef pad woon sen (glass noodles) & it was delicious - very generous portions, too. Looking forward to trying the khao soi & the mango sticky rice next time.

We ordered chicken sausage as a starter, & it was the waiters offer. It was very delicious & a bit of spicy. If you're a person who doesn't like spicy food, I wouldn't recommend, but it was very good. Then we ordered pad Thai with beef as our main course, which was very delicious & fresh & as a dessert, we ordered the rice pudding that was made with coconut milk with mango slices by the side, which I forgot the name, but it was very, very good. I would recommend this restaurant if you want delicious Thai food the staff were super respectful & nice & the chef she brought our homemade chicken sausages herself at our table, which was super nice.
Had a really late lunch on a weekday & was the only customer in quite a spacious place. The staff was very nice & friendly. Really appreciated such a high quality bowl of Khao soi on a chilly day after long walks. One of the best Khao sois I had so far 👍
Khao Soi is a welcome addition to the neighbourhood - a casual restaurant designed for walk-ins or efficient take-out & most importantly, they offer delicious Thai food (& some non-Thai Asian dishes) at affordable prices (comparatively speaking as everything is more expensive now). They have the popular dishes like pad thai, but they also have a few lesser known dishes, like their specialty namesake Khao Soi, a curry noodle dish which I've never tried before & is now a new favourite. My family has tried several dishes now & everything has been very good or excellent. The portions are also decent, & the service has been consistently good. There are not enough casual dine-in places in the area, so Khao Soi is definitely appreciated. I hope they're here to stay for the long-term.
