“Tiny, hole-in-the-wall place on Notre Dame Street, this restaurant nevertheless offers delectable fares packed with flavour. Whether you go for the ever popular Phad Thai or lesser-known dishes such as the Massaman curry, if you are a fan of Thai food with its blend of subtle blend of spices and herbs, you will come out sated and happy. As mentioned, this place is very small so if you want to eat in at lunch time, be ready to sit in cosy proximity to the neighboring patrons. However, the place quiets down later in the afternoon especially on weekdays.The service is very friendly and fairly fast.“
“Restaurant Siam has become a must go to destination whenever I travel to Montreal. I love the bold and innovative flavors of the food and that they will add the heat upon request. The restaurant itself is beautiful. Love the patio and outdoor bar as well. If you enjoy Thai, you need to eat here.“
“Really good food, good service, food arrived quickly too. The drinks were delicious too. Original and tasty. The look and decor is awesome. The only thing I can say against is that the music is way too loud for me. But everything else is over the top.“
“Good neighborhood restaurant in the "fast food, but restaurant and it's good" style. Good value for money and the pad thai was very tasty and quite filling (for me). Ultra fast service, we were served in 5 or 10 minutes max (a Sunday at 3 p.m.).There are quite a few people in the evening, you may have to wait 15-20 minutes outside. At lunchtime it will surely be busy too.I tested in the evening and there wasn't too much of a wait, we may have been lucky. We had a pad thai, pad kaprao and a mango sticky rice. Favorite for the pad kaprao ❤️ For the mango sticky rice, the rice was good but not the mango unfortunately.“
“Quality and generous dishes! Have a cost which may be higher than other restaurants but which is well worth it in terms of quality and quantity!Note however on the service where we really had the feeling of being disturbed even though we were at the start of the week and with only one other table occupied...What a shame“
“HALAL Thai food??? Yes please! I was soo happy when I stumbled upon this delicious restaurant. It’s very rare to find a halal asian place here in Montreal and let me tell you they deliver true authentic Thai cuisine. The flavours and the options are varied and tasty. You won’t be disappointed! I 110% recommend this place :)“
“The « tasting menu » isn’t on the menu but be sure to ask if they offer it that night! You will not regret it if you do, we were so full and for $65 /per person it was an incredible deal. Truly an amazing experience between all the balance of Thai flavours. The only place that I could say is better than my mom’s ?“
“So I’m gettin over a mild flue and needing to get some nutrients in me and so I look up soup on maps and I the first review I read says “best soup ever”, so I roll the diced go there and order some broth. It was the best damn broth ever and the guy working there is super nice. I go to pay and he says it’s on him and got that tasty broth for free. Im happy I love so close bc I will frequent this place at least once per week… enjoy!“
“Un régal ! Aussi bien sur place qu’en livraison, les saveurs nous emportent ! C’est épicé, juste comme il faut à mon goût. Nous avons pris le spécial végétarien du moment et le krapow beyond meat, les deux étaient excellents ! J’ai pu tester un soir sur place, la serveuse était très attentionnée et agréable. Merci !“
“The team is excellent. They are extremely nice and fun. They have great recommendations. The only issue we had was the very long delays to get our order.The food itself was extremely good. Everything was very tasty and well prepared. I will definitely be going back. Everything we ordered was delicious and freshly prepared.Vegetarian options: Many vegetarian options availableParking: Parking is available on the street“
“An almost secret place in the city center with a fascinating glass roof.My friend with whom I went to dinner lived in Thailand for several years, and for him it is definitely the place in Montreal that offers the most authentic Thai cuisine.We enjoyed the kuai tiao and for dessert the mango rice stick was delicious.In terms of decoration, even the toilets are exotic.“
“This place really impressed me the food is served with fresh ingredients and authenticity. Each seasoning is served in their dishes with a perfect balance of hot spice, flavourful burst of special blend of Cambodian and Thailand. Tum Yum is one of the best in Montreal if not the best!“
“Excellent general tao.. de loin le meilleur que j'ai mangé ! Très bon service. Commandez directement auprès du restaurant, le service sera meilleur que celui des applications et en plus on vous offre un rouleau impérial et le monsieur au téléphone est vraiment très gentil et serviable. Je recommande vraiment ! Belle découverte :)“
“The food here doesn't have a commercial taste, it tastes like it's coming out of your mother's kitchen. My wife's family is from Cambodia and Tuktuk's food tastes like my in-law's cooking. If you're looking for an authentic taste of Thai and Cambodian food this is the place to go. You should definitely try the Pad See Ew, the Amok is fantastic, the mango salad has a fresh taste, the Imperial rolls are generous with pork, and the desert is a very typical Cambodian dish. 5/5 will order from here again.“
“Cash only; smaller quantity. Super prompt serving speed. I ordered the coconut soup with rice, recommended by the server, the ingredients are very fresh and healthy (peppers, eggplants & small shrimps). A little spicy or the seasoning added afterwards taste that requires to drink a lot of water. Very clean restaurant. Friendly service.“
“Overall, I enjoyed the meal, service and quaint atmosphere.the pad-krachai I found a little salty for my liking ( could have had more green peppercorns, and maybe a different veggie to sweet peppers).the mango fruit was ripe but tangy. unfortunately, not a thai mango.All things considered, it was all right though (prices I found to be on the expensive side).“
“We’re so happy we can stop searching for a great Thai place, as we’ve found it with Pamika! The restaurant is laid out and decorated beautifully with a uniquely shaped bar (with actual comfortable seating at it….so don’t hesitate if the only seats are at the bar), gorgeous lighting, and rich plum and burgundy colors. While the weather is still wonderful, you can take advantage of outdoor seating in front and behind the restaurant. We were greeted by three smiling faces as we walked in, which was very welcoming. Our server was working on learning learning English, so she mostly spoke in French, but was so kind and efficient, and provided us with great, attentive service. The food was fresh, made with quality ingredients, cooked with skill, given attention to aesthetics (some with an especially nice wow-factor), and just a couple disappointments. We started with the crab stick, which was literally as it sounds: One skinny fried in wrapper long stick. It was fried to perfection and the sauce a yummy balance of sweet and spicy, but something extra delicious with a good mouthfeel (maybe a good quality honey?) The downside was that it was so slender and tight, there wasn’t enough filling in it to distinguish that it was, in fact, crab. The crispy shrimp had a cool presentation: five large shrimps wooden skewered, wrapped in noodles, and deep fried. Unique! They were plated skewer side up, neatly tied in a bow, and served with the same sweet and spicy sauce. The salmon tartare had a wow-presentation as well and it was spooned into a half of a fresh coconut and an artful display of edible flowers surrounding it. Sitting shotgun was a plate of crispy shrimp chips that were a perfect vessel to scoop of the fresh, lemon grassy, and vibrant tartare. My favourite dish was the duck salad. The duck had a good, meaty texture and savoury flavour and the salad was balanced well with lemongrass, mint, and Thai basil. The peppers jn here are spicccccy, and I loved it, but, be warned if you bite into them and are not a fan of your food biting you back! The pad Thai was very solid (I prefer a little more green onions and peanuts), but delicious nonetheless. The flop was the Galloping Horse! This was supposed to be a pork and shrimp meatball served on a slice of clementine orange and pineapple. It was a disaster…although looked really cute. The meat was a dry flavourless tiny ball (so many good Thai things could have been brought to these to make it juicy and pop with taste). The thin clementine slice was fine, but the dried pineapple was more like jerky. You had to fight to bite through it, so there’s no way one could even bite through the yuck of a meatball, orange, and through the pineapple tire. (I will say, I did later eat the pineapple on its own…had to fight and tug a bit….and it was tasty by itself and would make a good snack while watching a movie as you can’t eat it quickly). My husband had the Tom yum soup and enjoyed it (although the broth was less flavoured or spicy than desired and expected). It had a beautiful prevention of fresh, colourful veggies and perfectly cooked shrimps. The broth was served on the side to add as you like. Overall, we left saying to each other several times how delicious most everything was, beautiful the place was, friendly the service was, and how we are looking forward to trying new items….and reordering some of our favourites of the night. I love a restaurant that obviously cares about there place and puts effort into the experience for the customer!“
“Came here for the first time on Valentine’s Day and the owner/chef kyrin was super attentive and ensured we had a special time. We went pretty late in the evening, closer to close and we did not feel rushed at all and we were taken care of nicely. The owner gave us a dessert to share at the end which made the night extra special. Thanks so much again.“
“My husband and I stopped in for dinner on a Tuesday night after a long day. We were so impressed by every aspect of our experience here, especially the service. I ordered La Boeuf L'Orange and my husband had Poulet General Tao aux legumes. Our food was hot and delicious. We also ordered two Beignets for dessert, one banana and one apple. The ice cream was so delicious with a nice lingering aftertaste. The Beignets were hot and crispy. This was an amazing birthday treat for dinner! Highly recommend.“
“This place, like any other place downtown, could have taken a "one-time customer" approach and treat you like a one-time deal!!! Right? No!!! Unlike what one would expect ... here, you are treated like family! You will feel right at home, in your preferred diner in your hood, being in your element, and having a good time!It blew my mind to see, feel, AND taste the difference on my debut visit today, and I'm already planning more visits. This place is one of the best kept secrets in town.To spell it out, the food was fresh, outstandingly presented, and authentic. The service ... like I said, the crew made me and my guest feel like family ... everything felt special. The atmosphere, nice and inviting. It's like sitting in a hidden spot and watching the life happen right outside the window ... what else is there to say!Kudos to the crew, the chef, and the mastermind behind all this.“
“I've gone to several Sushi Shops over the years (in Toronto and now Montreal). I always got the Blossom Volcano roll; it's torch-seared salmon and made with soy sheet instead of seaweed...yum! I didn't think it was necessary to leave a 5-star review until now.A special shout out to the manager, Leo, who had done everything in his power to ensure that my purse (that I had mistakenly left behind in store), was returned back to me and in it's proper state. My faith in humanity has been restored thanks to you!“
“It is always very good here. While the place is clean, you don't go there for how it looks inside, but for the delicious food. I go there to eat on site or order take-out. I've brought family & friends there and they've always left satisfied and with the desire to go back.“
“We had the veggies and tofu cashew stir fry (vegan option) for our lunch during our day in Montreal and we found the food absolutely flavourful and tasty and had good volume. The place is in a food court of a mall and it was very clean and well maintained with not too many people around. The staff were very friendly and helpful to our requests. We even came back to get a takeaway portion which was packed really well by him for our flight. Will definitely recommend.Vegetarian options: Tasty food and the chef/staff are very accommodating to our request for vegan options“
“The best Chinese take out in the district. Won ton soup is yummy. Dinner no. 5 is our favorite. Friendly and helpful. They helped me carry my order to the car. The place has been in existence for many years and it is very unassuming in appearance from the street, but the quality of the food is very good.“
“Excellent food, we cannot get enough of it! I am told by my Chinese friends that it’s really genuine Chinese food, traditional recipes. The servers are nice as well, sometimes is not easy to communicate with some of them but it’s all good, we figure it out!Vegetarian options: Many vegetarian choices“
“I ordered twice and each time was a delightful experience. The packaging was excellent, ensuring the food arrived hot and fresh. The portions were generous, and my order of general Thairacha, Tom yum soup, and fried dumplings was delicious.I highly recommend trying their hot sauce – it adds the perfect kick to the already fantastic flavors!“
“This is the BEST Thai express I have ever been too in Montreal. The staff is extremely nice and the service is AMAZING. The food left me speechless for how good it was. If your ever in the downtown area the first thing you should think of is making a trip to this Thai express because you will surely not regret it. Thank you again to the owner for being so kind and I will be back again soon. You have earned a very happy and loyal customer. See you soon!“
“Chez nous, on essaye de commander du Kim San au moins une fois par mois.on a l'habitude de prendre un des combos additionné d'un ou deux plats sur mesure.La formule "combo" se compare un peu a un buffet c'est plusieurs petits plats passe partout.Le "a la carte" c'est vraiment ce qui fait se démarquer Kim San.Le cari rouge par exemple est un must.Les nouilles singapour sont toujours parfaites.Pis le vietnamien, Le C12 est une bonne facon de faire l'essai et voir les viandes qu'on préfere.(et si tu feel comme ayant vraiment faim, faut que t'essaye leur banane frite avec le ptit cup de sirop)C'est un beau petit restaurant familial qui mérite d'etre encouragé.“
“Tasted awsome. Super yummy rice. Good quantity of food for the prices. My only deception food wise, the soo guy chicken we order was a bit to dry. Definitely will be ordering from this place again. One thing tho as you might have read in other review, we also had our delivery guy complain about the tip.“
“Our go to resto. Crispy duck is unreal. Fantastic Pad Thai for those that are picky like us. Gluten sensitivity friendly so it takes the guess work out for us. We literally have not had a bad dish and we’ve been regulars since 2014. Just ordered more than twice what we wanted so the fridge will be full of leftovers. Green curry is unreal here.“
“Love the food every time I eat here!! Any kitchen I’m craving; Sushi, Szechuan or Italian all hit every time. They also always have great playlists if you come with friends or family it’s always a good time. Server Anthony always gives us great service !“
“The vegan duck is scarily reminiscent of the real thing. The texture is perfect, browned and chewy skin, tender and juicy inside. It isn’t quite as fatty as real duck, but it is close. The bed of spinach it lays on was the most delicious spinach I have ever had. There is a little garnish of cabbage too. But order another side and maybe rice to fill out your meal. The cucumber salad was ok, tasty but not as flavorful as I was hoping. I also got sticky rice, which came in the tiniest takeout box I have ever seen, which was perfect for one person.“
