This has been our favourite Thai-Szechuan restaurant for years. Unfortunately, their original location in Ville Saint-Laurent had to close after a fire broke out in the neighbouring business in the same building. Thankfully, they reopened in St-Hubert on the South Shore-but it's an even bigger trek for us: 98 km one way (the original location was about half that distance).
Despite the over one-hour drive & 196 km round trip, it was absolutely worth it! The food is every bit as delicious & consistently excellent as it's always been, & the staff remain some of the friendliest & most welcoming around.
The food arrives piping hot, beautifully prepared, & packed with flavour. The all-you-can-eat menu is an incredible value, with freshly made dishes brought right to your table based on your selections.
The peanut dumplings are pure heaven & an absolute must-order! Other favourites include the imperial rolls, papaya salad, crispy sesame beef, lime chicken, General Thai chicken, rainbow beef, tofu with vegetables in basil sauce, & vegetable fried rice-to name just a few. Honestly, we've never had a bad dish here. Everything on the menu is delicious.
Another bonus is that it's bring your own wine, so don't forget to pack your favourite bottle before heading out.
If you're wondering whether the drive is worth it, our answer is a resounding yes. We'll happily make the trip again for food this good!
Another incredible dining experience at Bistro Sawadika. Everything was perfect as usual from the fast service, the fresh & incredibly flavorful & delicious food to the ambiance of the resto. Service was excellent & attentative. It is also a bring you own wine which is great!! I have eaten here before many times & continue to come back ane introduce friends to it & they all love it.
I've been to Sawadika several times in the past. The restaurant has a nice atmosphere & decor & the bring your wine formula is great! This time I went for dinner with 2 of my cousins. As usual the food is quite good with a nice selection of dishes.
I just feel that the service could be better. We ordered soups, appetizers & mains. & everything was brought to us at the same time! They placed everything we ordered on the table simultaneously. We would have really prefer they brought them spaced out to be able to enjoy the food in a more relaxed way then feeling so rushed to eat so the food doesn't get cold. It all feels very rushed making the experience less pleasant. With that being said the food is very tasty. I would go back but ask them to space out the service.

This place is one of our favorites! We love bringing friends & family who have never been before because they love it & then refer it to others.
It's Thai/Asian fusion I'd say.. I think.. anyway- ITS AMAZING! Everything is so so good & fresh & you don't ever leave there feeling like crap!
The best part? There's an all you can eat menu for a very decent price & it's BRING YOUR OWN WINE! Need I say more?
The peanut butter dumplings are to die for as is the sesame beef - must orders! For dessert, the green tea & or mango ice creams are delicious!
How it works is you open the menu on your phone & they give you a pencil & paper & you write down your options like at Kanda. They keep bringing the food in waves. Service is usually good but can be slow depending the day.
There are options for everyone! They can take big groups or small, they have buckets for the wine & the seating is quite comfortable! It can be loud during the weekend especially near the holidays but usually we have no problem hearing each-other talk.
Parking isn't always easy! Especially in the winter because it's a shared parking with other restaurants & bars & it's not that big. You can find parking on the street or behind the building.
Try this place, you will definitely not regret it!
Awesome & delicious food! Great calm & dynamic atmosphere with classic music. For 40$ per person you get the "All you can eat" option which is worth all our money & you can BYOW (Bring Your Own Wine)! The "all you can eat" option has some exclusions from the main menu therefore some options will be additionally charged. Make sure you eat everything or else you will end- up paying for the remaining food left but the food is so delicious that there is a good chance you'll eat everything even if your full! The only downfalls are the following facts: - Some tables are placed near entrance path therefore people will be walking & passing next to your food, which can make things a little uncomfortable. - When you enter the restaurant you can smell from the first floor a small odor from the sewer water coming from the bathroom (which is located in the basement) Besides that everything was great! Staff is polite & the food service is pretty quick. They offer Jasmine &/or Green hot tea even if not shown on the menu as an option. Great place to celebrate birthdays, anniversaries or other life celebrations. Make sure you reserve first before arriving. If you reserve online (which is user friendly) make sure that when they call you back for the confirmation that they have the right date /the right time to avoid misunderstandings (keep & bring your email confirmation approval with you just in case) & make sure you read the cancelation policy! Bottom line my fiancé & I enjoyed our experience so much that we are definitely considering coming back!
As a first time experience, Sawadika was an enjoyable experience for us.The menu features a wide range of dishes, each bursting with vibrant flavors. We were very impressed with the Pad Thai, Cashew Chicken, Green curry & many more. Our waiter was also attentive & friendly. Dishes were served promptly & this made for an enjoyable dining experience. Sawadika impressed us with its delectable cuisine, inviting ambiance & of course..bring your own wine. We'll definitely be coming back.
