Overall, Tissy's Bistro is praised for authentic Thai flavors across a range of dishes such as green curry, Khao Soi, papaya salad, pad Thai, and mango sticky rice, with reviewers noting bright, balanced spices, fresh ingredients, and generous heat options that can be adjusted to taste; the atmosphere is described as warm and homey and the service consistently friendly and attentive, though a few comments point to occasional hours not being up to date or one brief rude experience; portions vary from generous to smaller for the price, and vegan options are limited due to fish sauce in many dishes; nonetheless many say it is among the best Thai venues in Montreal or the West Island, with frequent travelers and regulars returning for reliable quality, authentic flavors, and a welcoming, family style vibe.
I've only been to pick up food, but their food is really delicous & authentic especially the papaya salad. My only grief is they close up shop really early & our family are late diners.
A little home style restaurant in Beaconsfield. We had the papaya salad, BBQ pork skewers, chicken satay with peanut sauce, Khao Soi (Northern Thai soup noodles), & Thai basil pork with rice. There's a nice balance of flavor & they can adjust the level of spiciness to your taste. All the waiters were friendly. We've enjoyed our experience there.

I had my first visit at Tissy's Bistro with my sister today.
The food was fantastic- I ordered green curry, shares a papaya salad & veggie spring rolls with my sister. Prices were fair, service was quick & friendly.
Unfortunately they did not have many vegan options (the menu says'vegetarian friendly' but many options had fish sauce) so my sister that does not eat egg nor fish. She had a pad Thai & it was okay, but having a curry vegan option would be great!
The food is consistently good. The papaya salad is my fave! I tried the Penang curry today & it was good - I'd order it again. Spring rolls are great! Pad Thai is good but a little dry. I had to add extra lime to loosen it up a bit (noodles were very clumped & stuck together) The downside is that portions are too small for the price. I asked for medium spicy but nothing was spicy at all. I'll try the spiciest option next time. Unfortunately the Tom yum soup wasn't sour or spicy at all (it was creamy & sweet) so I wouldn't order that again. I ordered the tom kha kai soup before & enjoyed that more than the Tom yum.
This is probably the only place in the Montreal area where you can try the real taste of Thai food. These are delicious Thai soups Tom Yam Kung, Tom Kha Kai soup with coconut milk, Gaeng Keow Wan Gai soup with coconut milk & Green Curry paste, papaya salad Som Tam. Everything is very tasty & the prices are very reasonable. I highly recommend it, come & you will not regret it!
The most authentic tasting Thai food I've had since Thailand. Mango salad, shrimp pad Thai & green curry so delicious! Don't forget the spring rolls
Don't take very spicy if you can't handle it. Better just add chili flakes on the side & add as needed imo
Incredible Khao Soi & Papaya salad! It's hard to find such amazing Khao Soi outside of Thailand but this was amazing. Very authentic Thai food everything was so perfect.
We had the mango salad, pork skewers, pad see ew, panang beef & mango sticky rice. Loved all of it! Tissy herself was in the restaurant & was so friendly
I had the pleasure of dining at Tissy's recently, & it was an incredible experience. The food was absolutely amazing-each dish was bursting with flavor, perfectly seasoned, & authentic. Whether it was the rich curries or the fresh, vibrant salads, everything was on point & left me craving more. The only minor issue I had was the lighting. It was a bit too bright, almost to the point of being overwhelming. A softer, more ambient lighting would definitely enhance the dining experience & make the atmosphere more relaxed & enjoyable. That aside, I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for top-notch Thai cuisine!

I'm Thai & I wouldn't order Thai food from anywhere else. Tissy makes the best authentic Thai food! It makes me feel like home 🇹🇭 We have been ordering vegetarian Pad Thai, papaya salad, spring rolls & sticky rice every Friday for months from Tissy's. Highly recommended! Please note that due to shortage of kitchen staff, ordering your food ahead of time is a great idea to reduce your waiting time :)
Last night we had a spontaneous casual date night at Tissy's Bistro in Beaconsfield sitting al fresco & shared a green mango salad, Tom yum soup, shrimp pad Thai, & a bottle of San Pelligrino. As always, it was beautifully presented, the service friendly, & the food was delicious with bright, fresh flavours & a nice Thai slap of heat. If you haven't been, please know that there are very few tables to eat there, so prepare for a Plan B as most people do take away. There are two 2-top tables out front should you want to enjoy the summer air (as well as some indoor seating). This is our 4th or 5th time here & it's been consistantly delicious & a great go-to West Island spot when craving Thai! - at Tissy's Bistro.
Amazing meal for takeout ! Shrimp pad Thai, pork basilic, papaya salad, veggie spring rolls. Everything full of flavour, cooked perfectly, & the owner/employees are so friendly! Good vibes !
Highly recommended! The food is the star. Best Thai food in forever! The staff are very accommodating. They were busy, but when engaged them (asking menu questions e.g. that I preferred vegetables to tofu - so they accommodated my preference) they were super nice & became very chatty. They also accommodated my ask to taste their Panang curry, & when I asked about the green mango v green papaya salads they brought out a plate with a few julienned or each. The curries were awesome, most memorable since my very first red curry (TIL it was probably actually Panang)! Parking is a breeze & free, & while there is not much seating inside, they have tables on the patio, & it is super nice. Tip: the goyza are possible, but special order only.
