THAÏLANDE - Qu'est-ce qui vous vient à l'esprit quand vous pensez à THAÏLANDE? Est-ce le temple, le marché local, la vie nocturne folle ou le sourire thaïlandais?!
Pour moi, c'est TRÈS SIMPLE: THAI STREET FOOD! Juste les plats réconfortants ordinaires à côté de la rue - l’odeur des caris, les plats colorés avec des épices parfaites et l’habileté au wok des vendeurs locaux.
THAM.MA.DA, un mot thaï utilisé pour décrire quelque chose d'ordinaire ou de simple, est une cuisine décontractée servant des plats de la rue thaïlandais ordinaires mais authentiques. Ainsi que des boissons inspirées de la cuisine thaïlandaise qui apporteront une ambiance «ordinaire mais extraordinaire», le même, mais différent dans l’assiette pour vous permettre de DÉCOUVRIR.
Venez passer une soirée amusante en Thaïlande avec nous!

Belle expérience, que nous recommandons chaleureusement!
Cette fois-ci, nous avons eu un gros coup de coeur pour l'équipe! ❤?
LE LIEU: Thammada est situé au semi-rez de chaussée, est de petite taille & se démarque par sa grande terrasse en façade, sur un tronçon piétonnier de la rue Bernard. Cette rue, qui est complètement fermée à la circulation, regorge de boutiques & d'autres restaurants. Nous trouvons toujours du stationnement autour. Le restaurant en soi est intime & sombre, & donne l'effet d'un speakeasy. Le bar domine l'espace, & les tables ont toutes vue sur le barman.
PLATS COMMANDÉS, tous excellents : Poulet Prik Pao, Satay, Papaye pokpok, Gai pad med ma-muang & Tom yum moh fai. Tout est servi a prix fort raisonnable pour de si généreuses portions.
Nous avons dégusté plusieurs autres plats lors de visites précédentes, & avons tout aimé. Le chef s'adapte facilement à nos demandes. Les plats sont servis rapidement, mais non précipitamment. L'eau est remplie tout au long du repas.
L'ÉQUIPE : Nous avons été reçus par un jeune homme (gérant??) tellement sympathique. Il s'est assis avec mon mari, & s'est longuement intéressé aux occupations de celui-ci.
La charmante serveuse, aussi souriante qu'avenante, était au petits soins avec nous toute la soirée, malgré les nombreux clients à sa charge.
Le barman, que nous croisions souvent à l'intérieur, était lui aussi chaleureux & inquisiteur de nos goûts, & nous a servis de délicieux cocktails adaptés à nos préférences. 🍸 Grâce à ce trio, nous avons bien mangé & bien rigolé toute la soirée. Bravo! 👏
Malheureusement, nous n'avons noté aucun de leurs noms. 😳
À noter aussi que l'équipe est parfaitement bilingue, dans un quartier qui est plutôt anglophone.
L'ATMOSPHERE : malgré un mercredi soir plutôt moche (29/8/2026), l'équipe a su créer une ambiance détendue & chaleureuse.
Comme la grande terrasse au centre de la rue (très recherchée) n'était pas ouverte, on nous a gentiment assis à l'extérieur, près de la porte, où une première petite terrasse nous accueille.
De par son décor & ses cocktails tendances, ce lieu attire une clientèle de jeunes professionnels. Mais même les familles & les retraités s'y sentent à l'aise.

Wonderful experience, which we highly recommend!
This time, we completely fell in love with the team! ❤?
The Place: Thammada is located on a semi-ground floor, is small in size, & stands out with its large front terrace along a pedestrian portion of Bernard Street. This street, completely closed to traffic, is full of shops & other restaurants. We can always find parking nearby. The restaurant itself is intimate & dimly lit, giving off a speakeasy vibe. The bar dominates the space, & every table has a view of the bartender.
Dishes Ordered, all excellent: Poulet Prik Pao, Satay, Papaya Pokpok, Gai Pad Med Ma-Muang, & Tom Yum Moh Fai. Everything is priced reasonably for such generous portions.
We have enjoyed many other dishes in previous visits, & we loved them all. The chef is very accommodating to our requests. Dishes are served quickly but never rushed. Water is topped up throughout the meal.
The Team: We were welcomed by a young man (manager??) who was incredibly friendly. He even sat down with my husband & took a genuine interest in his work.
The lovely waitress, as cheerful as she was attentive, took great care of us all evening despite having many tables to manage.
The bartender, whom we often crossed paths with inside, was also warm & curious about our tastes, & he served us delicious cocktails tailored to our preferences. 🍸 Thanks to this trio, we ate well & laughed all night. Bravo! 👏
Unfortunately, we didn't note down any of their names. 😳
It's also worth mentioning that the team is perfectly bilingual, in a neighborhood that is mostly English-speaking.
The athmosphere: Despite a rather gloomy Wednesday evening (08/29/2026), the team managed to create a relaxed & welcoming ambiance.
Amazing family dinner spot. Good spice-free options 🤌🏼 definitely a place to recommend. Make sure you make a table reservation, this is a popular place among locals😉
We went there on a Friday evening, even though we didn't have a reservation, they still find us a table outside. The food was amazing, very fresh & very delicious. The service was so nice, even though it took a little bit of time (45 min😅) for the main course to come after we had the small plates... I recommend if you want authentic Thai food 😋
Excellente cuisine thaïlandaise & traditionnelle . Je suis allée 3 fois en Thaïlande & leur mets sont exactement comme au pays . Les portions sont généreuses & pleines de saveur . Le staff & très attentionné & gentil . L'ambiance est bonne on s'y pense être en Asie . Je recommande ce restaurant fortement. Vous ne serez pas de déçu. 😀🇹🇭
Bangkok Iced Tea (mocktail) - 10/10
I had the mocktail version & it was amazing-like an iced tea mixed with a mojito, which are two of my favourite drinks. The flavour was a 10/10. There was a bit too much ice, so it felt like I didn't get much actual drink, & it wasn't the most visually appealing, but don't let that stop you from ordering it.
Never Ending Summer - 3/10
This drink mostly just tasted like alcohol with little to no flavour. It was honestly not enjoyable-more like alcohol mixed with water. It looked nice, but the taste didn't match. My friend only finished it because she paid for it.
Choo Chee Goong - 9/10
This dish was delicious. I have a low spice tolerance, & while it was quite spicy for me, it wasn't overpowering-I could still taste all the flavours. I personally would have preferred it a bit less spicy, but that's just my preference. I would still definitely recommend it.
Shrimp Pad Thai - 8/10
Very tasty overall. It only came with four shrimp, so I do wish there were a few more, but they were cooked perfectly. I don't usually like when shrimp tastes overly'fishy,' but this was done really well. I forgot to ask for no egg (since I don't like it), but aside from that, I enjoyed it. I do wish the menu had more vegetable options-adding something like broccoli to the pad thai would make it even better.
Menu
I was a bit disappointed that the online menu didn't match the in-person menu, as some items I wanted to try weren't available.
Overall Food & Atmosphere
The food is definitely good, & the ambiance is cute, chill, & enjoyable.
Service
The service was a bit disappointing. We waited about 15 minutes at the beginning before anyone checked on us, & about an hour for our food-even though we arrived right at opening & were the first to order. Other tables that ordered after us received the same dishes before we did ours. We almost felt a little ignored even
There were also delays with smaller things: empty water glasses for 5-10 minutes, plates not cleared for around 10-20 minutes, & a long wait (over 10 minutes) for chopsticks after our food arrived-I had to remind the server, he had brought them to the wrong table.
While the server was kind & gave a great drink recommendation, he seemed a bit overwhelmed or scattered, especially considering the restaurant wasn't very busy. Overall, the service could have been more attentive & organized.
A thai resto in Mile-End that was smaller than we thought but could still accommodate a big group. Floor was a bit slippery so would recommend putting a carpet. Shared different appetizers & dishes. Tasty food but more expensive & smaller portion than we thought! Service was great though!
