Satay Brothers propose une sélection rigoureuse de spécialités issues de la cuisine de rue singapourienne et des saveurs audacieuses d'Asie du Sud-Est. Les brochettes de viande grillée sont servies avec une sauce aux arachides onctueuse et savoureuse qui définit le profil classique des plats proposés. Le répertoire culinaire comprend également des soupes de nouilles laksa épicées, des brioches vapeur aériennes et des fritures croustillantes rappelant les traditions des centres de restauration rapide. Des herbes aromatiques fraîches, des pâtes de piment ardentes et des mélanges d'épices complexes caractérisent chaque assiette préparée au sein de cet espace dynamique et animé. La cuisine privilégie des méthodes de préparation authentiques pour garantir une intensité constante sur toutes les grillades et les plats sautés. Cette adresse constitue une référence pour la cuisine fusion asiatique accessible, mettant en valeur des textures variées et des saveurs profondes.
Satay Brothers est largement reconnu comme une destination dynamique et populaire à Montréal, célébrée pour sa cuisine authentique et savoureuse d'Asie du Sud-Est ainsi que pour son atmosphère immersive et énergique. De nombreux visiteurs soulignent que les bao buns au porc, la salade de papaye et le laksa sont des plats incontournables qui offrent constamment des saveurs audacieuses. Bien que le restaurant soit fréquemment loué pour son service amical, professionnel et attentionné, même pendant les périodes de forte affluence, certains clients trouvent l'environnement assez bruyant et bondé, notant que le partage des tables peut influencer l'expérience culinaire. Les avis sur la taille des portions et les prix sont partagés, certains estimant que les plats sont petits pour le coût, tandis que d'autres apprécient la qualité et la possibilité de partager plusieurs assiettes. Bien que l'absence de réservations pour les petits groupes puisse entraîner des temps d'attente, la plupart des clients trouvent que le décor unique et l'ambiance sociale festive valent amplement le détour.
If you are looking for an establishment that truly captures the essence of'culinary tragedy' wrapped in a trendy, hipster veneer, then Satay Brothers on Notre-Dame is an absolute must-visit. It is truly a marvel of modern gastronomy-if your idea of dining is being served by people who seem to have taken a solemn vow of silence regarding flavor profiles.
?I approached this place with the foolish optimism that perhaps, just once, the hype might be justified. Instead, I was treated to a masterclass in how to ruin perfectly good ingredients.
?The chicken satay was a revelation, provided your definition of a revelation is discovering how much gristle, fat, & despair one can pack onto a wooden skewer. It was a texture-less abyss of oily dark meat-or what I assume was meat, though I've seen more structural integrity in a wet napkin. & the peanut sauce? Calling it bland is an insult to the word. A jar of store-bought, off-brand crunchy peanut butter possesses more depth, complexity, & soul than whatever beige, lifeless emulsion they dared to serve.
?& then, the'famous' pork bun. The only thing famous about it is the sheer audacity required to charge money for such a pathetic, uninspired excuse for street food. It is the perfect meal for someone who has never ventured beyond the comfortable radius of their own driveway & thinks a dash of soy sauce constitutes'international cuisine.' Having actually lived in Vietnam & Thailand, I can confirm: I have encountered street food in a literal sewer that possessed more authentic flavor than what I was served here.
?The grand finale was the garlic bok choy-or rather, the limp, morose pile of chlorophyll-deficient sludge that arrived at the table. It was clearly harvested, cooked, & then abandoned under a heat lamp during the dawn of time. A gray, flaccid mess topped with a'garlic' so aggressively jarred & devoid of character that I suspect the kitchen staff keeps a jar of garlic-scented sawdust on hand just to avoid the strenuous labor of peeling a fresh clove.
?If you have even one lingering shred of culinary integrity, do yourself a favor: stay home, eat a piece of dry toast, & save your money. It will be the most sophisticated meal you have all day.
The best baos I've had!! Service is fast & the food is so good. I had the soup with bok Choi & my friends the one with coconut milk. We also had baos & fried chicken. Everything 10/10
I will definitively go back for baos
Been there several times over a decade, love the food but recently find it not as tasty as before, especially when it is a group of 6 by reservation & served for testing menus (fixed menu, no choice)
Papaya salad, laksa soup & fatty pork bun weren't as good as remembered (not as tasty)
A little disappointed 😞 chicken & shrimp brochettes are always the best!
Seafood chow-mein was surprisingly good 👍
$600/6 people after taxes is what you're expecting (alcohol+taxes including)

I have an incredible experience! The staff were nice & welcoming & even went out of their way to explain certain menu items, the overall decor is inviting & full of colour, & the food (the reason why we were there) was the star of the show: the fried chicken & pulled pork sandwiches were out of the world, & the fried rice du jour was oh so delicious! Definitely a must do again in my next visit to Montréal!
11/10 experience. Hands down the best meal I've had in a while. Everything was so flavourful & the service was excellent. MUST HAVE the papaya salad, pork belly bao buns, & coconut mango black rice dessert. The chicken skewers & shrimp fried rice were great as well.
Possibly the most overhyped restaurant in Montreal. My laksa soup was almost cold, & just really not good??? they also got the order wrong (brought it to me without chicken, as was ordered). My friend's order was inedible & when we reluctantly mentioned it to them, they wouldnt do anything about it. The service by someone who was possibly the owner was rude. Don't understand the hype & won't be going back to try!
Thought I had covid when I ate the chicken laksa because it tasted like water down version of a laksa that you can get in Asia. The food presentation looked right/fine, portions were small-yish (got chicken satay as well) but there was no flavor. If you are going to be charging $19 for a small bowl of chicken laksa, you'd better get the flavor right. So $19 + $11 for 3 satay skewers with not that good of a taste plus tips & taxes, it's over $30 for flavorless food that you will go hungry again in 30-60 minutes, what are you even doing?
Pretty good food. Some items were salty like the sauce on the bao & some, like the garlic sautéed snow pea leaves were under seasoned. Laksa with chicken was good too but didn't have the depth & creaminess I was looking for.
A really intimate well-lit gorgeous restaurant on Notre-Dame 🎉🎉 We particularly loved the way beer cans are hung next to the light & gives off a very hippy bohemian vibe 😇😇 We started off with Jasmin Tea & beer & then moved onto Chicken satay that was incredible ❤?❤? For the main meal I had the chicken Laksha soup while my partner had lamb with rice & each bite was a gourmet's delight 🎉🎉 Our full compliments to the chef for the delicacy & also the staff that gave very good recommendations 😇😇 Finally for dessert we had the buttermilk cake & it was a heavenly delight 🎉🎉 Highly recommend this 11/10 restaurant with fantastic staff & service & we can't wait to try other items on the menu next time 🙏🙏
Top notch!!!!
Kway Teow was so flavourful with good wok hei flavours. Chicken satay skewers were crispy on the outside & tender meat, & that peanut sauce on the side was scrumptious. Garlic veggies were delicious. Our server was super friendly & approachable, generously gave us a piece of kueh bengka to finish our meal to celebrate a birthday. Kueh bengka was moist & the coconut flavours weren't overpowering. If i'm ever in the city again, definitely going out of my way to come back!!
