The fries and edamame are really good. We also got the beef pad Thai and tuna poke, which were good.

Although we'd only been at our table for 75 minutes, and were finishing our drinks, the waitress asked us to leave 'soon', because she needed the table. There was no-one waiting. We felt very uncomfortable after that, and this has never happened before. The waitress was bi-racial, with her hair tied back at her neck.

All was great except that the main meal, a pad thai, was way too spicy. It indicated openly that it was spicy, but it would be highly desirable to be able to select between 1 to 5 🌶️'s, rather than all of us getting 5🌶️ fire,

This is a great location. The staff were very nice. The food is really good. Unfortunately it was clear that there was a staff shortage, both on the floor, maybe even the kitchen. Service was very, very, very slow. It was not fair for the workers and other customers were not impressed.

The taste was not to the standard we are expecting. The food at Thai express is way better for a fraction of the price.

We had a reservation, and were seated right away. The staff were friendly and efficient. It was busy so it took a bit longer for things to get to us but overall with the amount of people there they did an amazing job. Food was ok, my daughter is gluten sensitive so she had the butter chicken and she liked it. It was more rice and vegetables than chicken but it was ok. I had their special ramen of the month and again ok but it was also more broth than ramen. Flavors were ok though. Drinks were delicious though so points for that. Overall my most expensive meal in Montreal so far but good experience for the night.

From the ease in making a reservation, even making a mistake in locations, which was automatically corrected, to the friendly receptionist who moved my reservation time when we were going to be late, to the wonderful server who took excellent care of us and the delicious food, this was one of the best restaurant experiences I have had in a long time. Congratulations to having a well run organization and you can be sure I will recommend your restaurant to all my friends and will be back again.

Service was excellent! Polite, efficient, quick. Food was delicious and fresh. We had orange beef and salmon tartar. A bit too much garlic for my taste but nicely spiced and well presented. Cocktails were also delicious! It would have been nice to have tablecloths and cloth napkins. Table by the window is much nicer. Middle tables are closely spaced and loud.

We were looked after by Aglaé & Carl. Both were efficient and friendly. They respected our request to enjoy our cocktails before ordering the food. I ordered the small Thai Coco soup and the peanut butter wonton. Both were delicious as were the drinks. The Orange wine was a nice find. Reasonably priced considering the location. It was my first visit and won't be my last !

The food was good but the portion was small for the price charged. The server was polite and courteous, but when I asked to have the vegan option the person asked if I wanted the eggs? I enjoyed the atmosphere and the beautiful decoration.

The food was tasty and the service was great. However we didn't quite like the ramen unfortunately. Everything else was good

Was a tad loud with the music and everyone there for the show (dinner at 5:45 pm)… we had to almost scream at each other, which obviously didn’t help the overall noise level… maybe adjust the music down a tad once the restaurant is full of excited people? It would make the whole experience a lot more enjoyable. Otherwise, delicious as always :)

The vibes were so nice. Beautiful decorations. Food was really goood tooo! And service was one of the best we had. Our server had many tables but he made sure that he checked on us constantly. Didnt have to wait long either. Meals we got: dumpling with peanut sauce beef teriyaki stir fry with fried rice sesame and orange beef molten lava cake with vanilla ice cream.
