Siwalee Cuisine Thailandaise brings the favors of Thailand's street food to the heart of Montreal. We serve authetic, home style Thai dishes - just like you find at a Bangkok food market.
Siwalee Cuisine Thaïlandaise draws praise for authentic Thai flavors, a warm family run atmosphere, friendly and attentive service, and good value, with frequent nods to green curry, pad see ew, pad thai, massaman and tom yum, as well as tom kha, papaya salad and mango sticky rice; the space is described as casual and inviting, the portions generous and the quality reliable across visits, and the owners' personal hospitality is often highlighted; while a few reviews note milder flavors or more standard profiles in some dishes and a couple of items such as gyoza or dumplings not standing out, the overall impression is that Siwalee is a hidden gem in Montreal offering authentic Thai cuisine, a standout experience for many, and a place they expect to return to and recommend.
very authentic thai restaurant, the owner is so sweet & explained to us every dish & is very passionate about her culture. this is a family owned restaurant so you know the food is authentic. we ordered a couple of entrees & a massaman curry & a pad see ew which were phenomenal. i def recommend this spot if you want to be full & bring leftovers (quantity is amazing) the waitress is super attentive & kind!
We ordered a selection of dishes with the view of tasting for dinner & then taking the leftovers home.
The dumplings with peanut sauce & the chicken meatballs were both amazing to start our dinner.
The chicken Tom Yum & chicken Massaman Curry were outstanding & delicious.
For mains we ordered the Spicy Crispy Chicken with mango salad & the Beef Pad See Ew.
The portions were quite large which makes this restaurant extremely good value for delicious Thai food.
Highly recommend this restaurant!

Best curry I have had in my life, best Thai food in Montreal I have not tasted Thai food like this since the last time I've been in Bangkok. Everyone here is so sweet.
This is such a hidden gem for authentic thai food in a budget! Tried the massaman curry with beef & chicken pad thai. The massaman was sweet with rich flavors of various seasonings, while the pad thai was flavorful & smokey! Truly enjoyed this meal here. Also the people are so sweet, I will definitely be back again just to see them again. Can't wait to try the other dishes soon as well.

Siwalee is the best Thai spot you could possibly find in the town! I absolutely love the pad see ew beef & green curry! You should all give it a try!!!!
Nous avons commandé en entrée des dumplings avec sauce aux arachides. C'était correct & tiède. Comme repas principal, nous avons pris les deux spécialités du chef, soit le poulet croustillant avec salade de mangue & le curry vert. Le poulet croustillant était tiède & un peu trop vinaigré, mais le goût dans son ensemble était correct. Le curry vert avec poulet était succulent, nous le recommandons. Petit resto bon rapport qualité prix. Le restaurant était plein & les gens semblaient apprécier l'endroit.

I tried the Thai Green Curry (veg), Veg Momos, & Pad Thai. The Thai Green Curry was absolutely delicious - rich, flavorful, & perfectly balanced. The portion size was just right too.
The Pad Thai & Momos were a little on the sweeter side. I actually enjoyed the mild sweetness in the Pad Thai, but I felt the Momos could've been better without it. That said, they were still tasty & well made.
Overall, it's a nice place with delicious food & good portions. I left very satisfied & would definitely come back again!
Everything you want from a local, small business. This restaurant is casual & clean. The young server was polite & friendly as the kitchen prepares delicious Thai classics, offering great value at reasonable prices. Cannot really beat that for a dining experience. The green curry was my favorite, but the few dishes I tried were all great. Many vegetarian options as well...Looking forward to trying other items next time!
was the best thai food Ive ever had. pad thai was delicious, very umami & not too sweet like some other places. pad see ew was amazing, very black peppery. green curry was perfect. staff was very nice. cant recommend enough

What a fantastic Thai restaurant! We had the Pad See Ew & the Massaman curry-both were absolutely delicious & tasted super authentic. The Massaman- best I've ever had. We've been to Thailand many times & this place seriously brings back those flavors. Portions are generous & prices are reasonable. We were served by the owner, which made it feel extra personal. This family run place & a real gem. We will definitely be back.
Great food. Exceptional warm reception. The red curry was like nothing I have ever tasted. Would have licked the bowl. We ordered two entrees & 2 mains & stuffed ourselves to clean the plates. Will be our local Thai goto from now on.
I saw this restaurant when I was passing by one day. I brought a couple of friends with me to try it out. Everything was delicious : spring rolls, fried wontons, soup & green curry with blue sticky rice. Perfect. I went back alone to try the Pad Thai. One of the best I've ever had in Montreal. The owners & their daughter are very sociable & kind. I highly recommend this restaurant.
Bravo !
We ordered the following:
- Thai Iced Thai + Thai Milk Tea
- Som Tam (Papaya Salad)
- Pad See Ew (Beef)
- Kaeng Khiao Wan (Green Curry - Chicken)
- Khao niao mamuang (Mango Sticky Rice)
Everything was excellent. Literally everything. The Som Tam despite being spicy was not overpowered. You could taste the complexity of the sweet & sour from the ingredients. The Pad See Ew was a very generous portion garnished with fresh chinese brocoli & just the perfect mixture of pad see ew sauce & caramelization on the noodles. The green curry was very tasty & the texture of the curry itself was perfect! The marinated protein (chicken in our case) was tender & juicy! The meal ended with a classic Thai dessert, a phenomenal mango & sticky rice.
Overall, we greatly enjoyed our food.
The service was top notch. Family owned restaurant with attentive staff, this restaurant should be on your radar if you enjoy Thai food or if you have the craving for an authentic Thai experience.
My wife is Thai, & I have lived in Thailand myself & we highly recommend this restaurant. We'll come back again for sure!
Authentic Thai flavours & warm friendly service. We were served by the owner & her daughter & we shared stories, laughs & the hospitality was nothing short of esquisite.
We ordered the Mango Salad, Pad Kraw Pao & the Massaman Curry. All were delicious, full of flavour & plenty of meat! The Mango Sticky rice dessert was sweet but not too sweet 🥭Price was also exceptional for the quality.
