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!
Hugely disappointed by my second visit. I'm Thai, so I have high standards for Larb Moo, & this wasn't it. It was basically unseasoned minced pork. I had to fix it myself just to make it edible. While the Pad Thai noodles were good, the shrimp were bland & tasted like they were cooked separately & just tossed on top. The sticky rice portion was also a joke. I loved my first visit, but I'm not paying restaurant prices to do the chef's job at home.
Updated review : the tom kha gai was really not to my taste at all, felt like the flavors were really off to me as if they didn't balance the aromatics properly. The pad thai had a quantity over quality feel. It was honestly still decent & probably a good quality & quantity / price ratio... The service was nice & quick. Not the place for me since quality matters above all to me, but decent restaurant if you are less picky!
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!!!!
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!

Mon nouveau resto thai préféré à Montréal ! Tous les plats que nous avons essayé sont délicieux, ils ont même réussi à me faire aimer le pad thai ! Service adorable, décoration simple mais jolie, & prix très raisonnables = nous sommes ravis de cette nouvelle découverte dans le quartier !
Délicieux, le plat ressemble comme sur la photo du menu, je cherchais un bon thailandais dans Montréal j'ai TROUVÉ.
Je me suis regalé avce mon pad thai Poulet !
Merci 😋
This is the best Pad Thai in town! After trying several restaurants in the MTL area, Siwalee finally delivered a true Pad Thai with its signature tamarind flavor. I mostly order through Uber Eats, but recently I visited the restaurant & was pleased to experience warm, friendly service. Don't forget to try the Crispy Pork Wontons - they're a must! This restaurant is truly a jewel in the MTL culinary scene.
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

Amazing Thai food. The flavours are incredible. We had the tofu pad thai, papaya salad, larb salad, mango sticky rice & the pandas custard. All delicious.
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.
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 !
