I got recommended by a friend I made on the train to Montreal. Wow! The food was amazing! We ordered the fried curry rice, beef/chicken satay skewers, mussel curry, & fried chicken.
The fried curry rice with the spicy sauce & mild salt. It's great & savory because I love to eat spicy food. I do not recommend to put a lot of sauce in the fried rice if you cannot handle spicy, but you should try out a bit because it's more flavourable with a bit of spicy & sour.
The skewers were delicious! The beef (juicy) & the chicken were marinated well & not too dry, not too salty & balance taste with the peanut & creamy sauce.
For the fried chicken, it has balance of sweet & salty. Its sweetness isn't thick & you can still feel a bit of crispness in the skin.
The best dish that we had is the mussels curry! We got recommended by a server & decided to try out. The first bite combined the rice & the curry soup, it's delightful & aromatic. The soup wasn't too creamy & salty. You can see there's a bit of oily in the soup. Also, there are bell peppers pieces inside the mussels but you do not taste them at all due to the overwhelming of curry taste.
The restaurant is louder than the other restaurants I've been but the conversation is still audible. I especially love to currency collection wall that they have. Such a diverse community!
I usually don't write this long review but I am impressed by the taste of the food. Will definitely recommend to try it out!
Edit -- I went again & ordered the skewers & the caramelized coconut milk dessert (with mango, sticky rice & some seeds) -- portion size was small for skewers but they were pretty good especially the dessert.
We ordered 3 items in the Lunch menu -- all underwhelming & tiny portions. The egg fried rice was the worst I ever had :(
Had a booking for 8 on sunday at 7:30pm. When we entered, the place was packed with other groups. I thought the service or the food would be slow to come out but i was definitely wrong.
Our waiter was really nice, explained the food, & made sure my friend with a food allergy got a suitable replacement.
The food was a set menu for the entire group. 7 plates for 55$. Every plates was delicious, i thought I wouldn't be filled initially but i was wrong again. There was barely any downtime between plates coming in which was nice. The plates were mainly meat (chicken skewers, fried chicken, ribs, lamb, pork bao bun) which was perfect for me.
Overall, food, service & atmosphere was great. Definitely recommend going there to everybody.
One of my colleagues highly recommended this place (infact she was adamant we try it out) & glad we took her recommendation! Got to try a few things on the menu & most of it slaps. Definitely check out the fried chicken buns & the skewers. Flavourful, fresh ingredients & the skewers had a unique smokey but a piercing marinating sauce effect to it - gotta try it to believe it. If you're in the area or want something different - check it out!
The food was great & so was the service. The chicken satay skewers were probably the best thing we had. The bao buns were very good as well. The fried rice was good but not our favorite thing on the menu.
Run! Don't walk - to Satay Brothers. If you're in Montreal, this is the place to go. We made a reservation for a group of 7 & the experience was awesome. We went for the $55 (CAD) tasting menu & it was so worth it (fyi, this option may only be available for groups of 6+). Every plate was flavorful & delicious - our favorites were the chicken & shrimp skewers, fried chicken, laska soup, & the ribs. The atmosphere is poppin'. YDefinitely gets pretty loud inside, but overall a very fun & lively vibe. 10/10!!
