The pad thai was so yummy!! The noodles were perfectly cooked (not too soft like most restaurants) which I loved and the flavor was amazing. The spices they provide to add to the dish were perfect too. The thai tea was a bit more syrupy than I was expecting but nonetheless yummy. Will definitely remember this place!! read more

Very impressed with the flavors. I wouldn't call it strictly Thai. There is some fusion action here. Although the noodles don't taste homemade, half the menu is centered on noodles. Large menu. If you download the menu, pictures would help decide. Laid back. Order at counter before seating or when the host meets you. The location near Downtown remains open, but the other one in Mount Royal was damaged in a fire. read more

Mae Sri - Pad sew ew - Thai Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Mae Sri is a restaurant on the smaller-side, and gives fast-casual vibes. I ordered and paid at the cash register first, then waited for my food to come out. I left a tip, but I was left feeling unsure because they do bring your food out for you but at the same time there's not much service otherwise. The tables are quite small, and with our 3 dishes (2 bowls of soup and appetizer plate) we just enough room. There is a can on each table that holds utensils and napkins. One of the tables kept tipping their cans over, which was easy to do considering the lack of arm room. My friend and I ordered noodle soups and shared a papaya salad. The papaya salad was decent and was spicy, but not too spicy! My friend and I were unfortunately disappointed by the soups. I ordered the Baa Mee Moo soup. The ingredients in the soup were okay - for example the meatballs in my soup literally didn't have any flavor, and neither did the dumplings. Perhaps because the door kept opening when people came inside, my soup got cold pretty fast too. It also said it came with yu choy, but I had only one piece of yu choy in my dish. I did want to enjoy it, but unfortunately the meal fell flat, and I think the soups were pricey for what they are. read more

I was left with the overall impression that an MBA was in charge of maximizing profit at your expense between interior space allocation, dish ingredients, proportions, menu offerings, and pricing. It is exceedingly rare to find a Thai meal that disappoints anywhere in the world, and especially for the cost involved this place didn't do it for me. The first warning sign was not being able to substitute meats in most dishes (never seen that in my life). You cannot have beef green curry for example - only chicken. And oddly as a Thai restaurant, this location does not offer common dishes like panang curry. As others noted you have to bizarrely pay and tip before eating. Pad thai was dry and missing flavor, and came with a disproportionately high amount of bean sprouts. I love bean sprouts but they provide you with a pho sized portion, cheapening your dish. For $2 extra, you also have the privilege of swapping chicken for 4-5 pieces of shrimp. Green curry was okay but not balanced, way too much sugar and salt. Eating more than a sip at a time did not sit well. There are no other curry options like red, panang, massaman. Great decor and ambiance, very cute interior. Seats and tables were cozy but small. I have fond memories of regularly ordering great local Thai takeout at reasonable cost in my university days. Unfortunately for McGill students, this won't be it for them. read more

This place is really exceptional! I had an amazing time dining here the other day, truly a 5 star experience! The restaurant is super cozy and you get real Thai vibes upon entering. The interior is super cool and modern, yet also reminiscent of restaurants in Thailand. We arrived just before 6 on a Saturday night and we're seated immediately. The servers explained that we had to order at the counter and they'd bring the food to our table one it's ready. All the people working there were super kind and sweet! I ordered the Thai Hainan chicken and my party ordered some noodle soups. The Hainan chicken was awesome. The rice was fragrant and flavorful, chicken was silky and the soup was delicious. I particularly loved the spicy sauce that made a perfect sweet, spicy compliment to the chicken and rice. This was a great dish! The seafood noodle soup was also excellent. Filled with large shrimp and generous amounts of other fillings, the broth was flavorful, a bit sweet, tangy, and savory. I'd definitely recommend this. We also ordered some spring rolls and a papaya salad for the table which were enjoyed by everyone. One person in my party told a server that her soup was very spicy and she was so sweet, she brought her a Thai iced tea to help with the spice. This was such a thoughtful touch, we were blown away by the attentiveness of the service. Also, upon hearing it was one of our birthdays also brought us the tapioca coconut dessert with a little candle in it. Amazing service here. Really top notch! Overall, this place is awesome. Amazing food, kind service, prices are super reasonable. If I lived in Montreal, this would be a regular spot for me! I will be coming back upon my next trip! read more

Mae Sri - Thai Hainan chicken and seafood noodle soup in the back. - Thai Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

3.9/4 - servers were very nice and answered all of our questions perfectly - #3 noodle soup was a light pork broth with tender pieces of roast pork, meat balls, and wontons. the egg noodles were disappointingly over cooked and soft, but the rest of the soup was delicious. - #11 noodle soup was a spicy broth with sesame seeds, shrimp, calamari, and glass noodles. the flavor was complex and perfect for a warm day. the shrimp was also cooked nicely - the papaya salad was fresh, vegetables were crunchy, and slightly spicy. - the spring rolls were not very hot and did not taste fresh. this was disappointing, as fried foods do not taste great when they sit out for awhile. - the restaurant itself is not that big but very cute, clean, and nicely decorated. - we are at around 6:30-7:30pm and it was busy but we were able to get a table without waiting. read more

Mae Sri - Thai Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Super chic Thai restaurant spot in Montreal;) halfway self-service, we scan the menu then go order food at the cashier. They serve us at the table with friendly vibe and all style and decoration is Northern Thailand style. Honestly, my personal opinion the menu and advertised looks like they get an authentic lists but the taste is not quite actually like food in Thailand. Less spicy even I order Thai spicy, all noodles soup we get the soup quite watery, the way they make Rad Na noodles is weird, I mean the taste is not terrible but the way they make food is still like when foreigner makes Thai food Overall this place is pretty busy and I'm glad , my friends and I go early so we got the table right away. Food taste good and service is friendly. read more

Mae Sri is a small neighborhood Thai restaurant in Milton Park just several blocks from downtown Montreal. Here's what's to love about it: 1) Food: It's among the best food we've had in the city. It's a hybrid of fast-casual and a sit-down restaurant. They seat you when you enter, but you order at the front when you're ready. They have a wide variety of options from all the usual Thai suspects (green curry, pad Thai, papaya salad, etc) and a few more unique items. I ordered the veggie green curry and the coconut sauce was perfect as were the noodles. My wife ordered a delicious pad Thai and papaya salad. 2) Service: Compared to other restaurants in the city, the service is faster and more friendly. They also have a booster seat for kids. 3) Space: It's beautiful with tables and wood stools. There's window seating as well. 4) Wifi: It's free and strong. The password as of August 2019 is "maesrithai." One thing to note: 1) The Thai iced tea was not my favorite. It came out in a small silver bowl with too much ice and WAY too sweet. I almost didn't finish it. Overall, if you want good Thai food, go to Mae Sri! read more

Food was delicious here!!! We tried their noodles, curry, boat noodle soup, appetizers, they all tasted wonderful and according to my friend, it's not common in Montréal to have delicious Asian food! They opened not long ago but has already been busy because we saw people still coming in as late as 10pm. The service was great and friendly. The food came out pretty quickly too. The dining room had stool chairs so it's not the most comfortable seating but it's OK. The air circulation could be better. We hanged our coats on the rack and came out smelling like grease haha. Good French pâtisseries and restaurants might be everywhere in Montréal, but it isn't easy to find an authentic and delicious Thai restaurant. It's wonderful to see such a restaurant in the city. read more

Didn't expect to find Thai food this great in Montreal! We purposely made a stop here due to the raving reviews, and Mae Sri definitely impressed. The concept is fast casual - you line up, and they don't take your order until there are available seats. After paying, you're then directed to an empty table to sit and eat. We ordered a papaya salad to share; I then got the Kuai Tiao Tom Yum, my sister the Thai Hainan steamed chicken, my Dad the Pad Kra Pao, and my Mom the Crispy Pork Belly. I sampled all, and they were all so delicious! Papaya salad This appetizer was a pretty solid and generous portion - and quite spicy too! The spice added a pleasant kick to the raw papaya, with the lime balancing things out with a tangy sourness. Thai Hainan steamed chicken For those who love the original Hainanese steamed chicken, you must try this out! My sister loves her Hainanese chicken, and we were blown away by this dish. The chicken was so silky smooth and flavourful! The rice was also delicious, having absorbed all the chicken oil / essence. Pad Kra Pao I only had a small bite of this, but it didn't taste vastly different from those from other places. By this, I mean it met expectations and was quite good nevertheless. Crispy Pork Belly This was an interesting dish, and very delicious! The pork belly highly resembles the ones from Chinese cuisine, but are fried to be a great crisp and offer an amazing bite! Kuai Tiao Tom Yum This dish was the least exceptional, though the tom yum broth was still quite flavourful. It was the ultimate comfort meal, however. The rice noodles readily absorbed the broth, and offered a taste of home with each bite. I particularly enjoyed the many shrimps and the soft-boiled egg, though the meatballs were mediocre and not my favourite. Overall, the meal was amazing. The service was also quite friendly; the staff were all smiles and super accommodating. Would highly recommend! read more

We consulted the covid-19 yelp takeout list and decided to try Mae Sri. I had previously tried their sister restaurant Pamika and had been wanting to try Mae Sri ever since. Takeout experience was great. It's easy to order on their website, you a select a pick up time or delivery (Uber and skip the dishes). When I went to pick up my order was ready, they handed me my bag and that was it. Food was delicious and thankfully we ordered extra to have leftovers (delicious leftovers btw!). Fried chicken salad and the papaya salad were my favorite. I loved the marinades and the crunch of the salads. The green curry was also delicious and just the right level of spice. Baa Mee Haeng Moo Dang was also really good. It's essentially noodles, dumplings and what seemed like beets? It also comes in a soup form which is like to try next time. We also ordered the pad Thai, which was good but nothing special. Their other dishes are much more interesting and flavorful. Keep supporting your local businesses like Mae Sri, if you can! read more

Move over Thai Express, hello Mae Sri! Are you looking to satisfy your mid-morning munchies while catching up with friends over over brunch or leisurely dinner without the complications of a lengthy sit down experience? Then you should take a look at this wonderful lunch counter who specializes in noodle soup bowls for mouth watering selection of healthy, tasty and quickly delivered dishes - there's surely something to tickle your fancies! Admittedly, the menu has been adapted to the local taste, but it doesn't take anything away from the fact that everything is homemade, recipes are authentic, not all are spicy, you chose what you want at the counter and they bring it to you and it's fast! Last weekend, I had the pleasure of satisfying my Thai food cravings over Brunch with a longtime childhood buddy and news friends... and oh did we fill our bellies with wonderful and tasty dishes. Items marked with a star (*) are must haves! Lab Kai Thod: Fried Chicken Salad* Po Pia Tod: Fried Spring Rolls Set Tum Tad: Papaya Salad Special* Kuai Tiao Neua Tun: Thai Braised Beef Soup* Kuai Tiao Kai Tun Ma Rah: Bitter Gourd Soup Kuai Tiao Ruea Ayuthaya: Boat Noodle Soup Yen Ta Fo: Seafood Soup* Ba Mee Moo Dang: Ba Mee Moo Soup* ... and some Thai Iced Tea with condensed milk. In speaking with owners, Pamika and Pascal, I was informed that another Mae Sri will open in the Plateau area on Mont-Royal street and possibly in Europe too! One more thing, if you are looking for a different type of dining experience, beautifully decorated space and access to a more elaborate menu, I invite you to try their other Thai restaurant called Pamika. P.S. Best time to get fast service is at 1pm on weekends or early evening around 5:30. read more

I've tried Pamika Brasserie Thai before, and I had an amazing experience. The food was absolutely delicious, the service was great, and the restaurant's decor was gorgeous. So, when I found out that the same chef, Pamika Sukla, was behind Mae Sri, I was super excited. Mae Sri, compared to Pamika, is more of a fast-serving "street food" style experience. You order from the counter and pay in advance, and then your food is brought to your table. The decor is simple and practical, yet also culturally inspired. There is great natural light (for the pictures!!), and their location is super convenient if you are a McGill student (like me ). We started off our meal with a Thai iced tea and Thai iced coffee with condensed milk. Both drinks were extremely good and came in really cute bowls. I highly recommend the Thai iced coffee with condensed milk!! For the appetizers, we tried the papaya salad, the fried chicken salad and the Mae Sri fried rolls. The papaya salad is one of their most popular dishes, and for a reason. It is full of flavor and completely different from anything I've ever tried before. The rolls were also delicious, and are fried fresh upon ordering!! For our main meals, we tried the Mae Sri Pad Thai, the Baa Mee Moo, the Seafood Rad Na, the Green Curry and the Stir Fry with Thai Holy Basil. The green curry, like the one I tried at Pamika, was delicious. It also contained a lot of meat for the serving size, so we were very satisfied!! The Stir Fry with Thai Holy Basil was my favorite dish. It was really spicy, but so so good. It's packed with a lot of flavor and the portion size is really big. My sister, who I went with, was obsessed with the Pad Thai, for good reason too!! They also have to-go dessert packages: mango pudding or tapioca. The mango pudding was addictive!! I would buy half a dozen next time I go to bring them home with me Overall, really good experience. Definitely recommend for a casual lunch or dinner experience. This location is especially convenient for McGill students, so I'm so happy that I found out about it!! read more

Mae Sri is definitely what it advertises to be, a Thai take out counter. It's a close walk from Place Des Arts metro. It's easy to walk past this place, because the door sign isn't visible. The decor us very nice, similar seating to Kinton Ramen with the block styled chairs. Nice you grab a seat, you'll find a small menu- drawback: there is no pictures of these dishes and everything seems to look like alike in words, but thank God for social media! The servers were actually quite friendly and honest about food portions and flavours, I really liked that. To order, you go up and order, pay and get a number like mandy's. To start we got the spring rolls x 4. These were good and no different than any Asian take out order. For the mains: wevopted to get a baa mee moo with noodles (12$) they comes with egg noodles, roasted pork, Asian Tak choy, dumplings and egg. I really loved this dish - better for 1 person than sharing. The second dish we got was the seafood rad na (15$) that comes with stir fry noodles, Asian kale, shrimp, calamari (barely any) and veggies. I did not enjoy this dish - it was a soupy very soupy but served in a plate - which made it hard to eat, and it wasa bit bland. I tried the Thai iced tea tea (5$) with condense milk but didn't like it- way too sweet. More of an acquired taste. It cost 55$ in total amongst the two of us. I don't know if I would come back here, rather settle for Thai express. read more

Mae Sri is one of my go to places for asian comfort food! The environment is very friendly but in winter, you would probably need to keep your coat on since it is pretty cold inside. Every time I go to Mae sri, I would order the thai milk tea because it is delicious!If you don't know what it tastes like, here is my definition: it taste a little bit like caramel milk tea. Don't forget to ask for less ice!!! If you don't eat spicy, you can ask for the papaya salad without spice. The salad is refreshing, it's a good amount of spicy, salty and sweet. The imperial rolls are alright. As for the main meal, I love love love and recommend the green curry. It comes with vermicelli on the side, a bowl of green curry and tender chicken inside the curry. The way to eat it is by dipping the vermicelli inside the curry and scoop all of that yumminesss in one spoon! I have also tried out other dishes before such as the Ba mee noodles and the pad Thai. The ba mee noodles are good if you are looking for a more fresh soup with egg noodles and char siu plus some fragrant spices. As for the pad Thai, I enjoy it whenever I want some sweet and salty noodles with the perfect amount of egg, chicken and shrimp. read more

Definitely not an authentic Thai restaurant. Tom Yum soup was not authentic and tasted somewhat similar to Vietnamese pho. Papaya salad tasted bland and was apparently missing some key ingredient. I was also surprised to learn that the restaurant didn't have hot sauce when I requested. Pad Thai was ok, but not great. This restaurant requires paying for the food and tip before the food is served. Will not return to this place. read more

Definitely not authentic Thai food. The place in itself is small and cosy. The service was okay-ish, you need to pay first, which mean tipping before knowing if the service/food is any good. The food we took was bland, some vegetables felt like prepped in a hurry. My wife got her food a good 5 min before I did, and the drinks arrived last. Green beans were almost raw... Needless to say, we have been very disappointed and won't return anytime soon. read more

A tiny and beautiful restaurant; with golden color chandelier and wooden tables, chairs and walls. I arrived early, took five spots for me and my friends. Within the 10 minutes the restaurant was filling up. I was worried I am going to loose the table if my friends weren't there any time soon. The host of the restaurant, came to tell me the same thing as I thought of loosing table, which I understand but the host was had a very threatening tone. He was creepy and scary. Thankfully, my friends arrived. Their system is you order your food at counter and pay. By the time, it's ordered and paid, my food arrived right away on my table. It was quickest service ever! I had the papaya salad which was so good, spicy, flavorful, fresh and so delicious. My vegetarian rad na was a disappointment; it hadn't any flavor; it was so bland. It's a 50/50 with this place. read more

Situated on Milton street, near McGill University, this small restaurant is all you need for a Thai fix during finals. I ordered their kuai tiao Tom yum soup; basically a sea food noodle soup. It was quite good; tasty good amount of sea food; calamari and shrimp, for the price you pay. Not very spicy. The presentation is superb. My friend ordered pad Thai; unfortunately it wasn't to her taste. There's better pas thais. I had a bite; it was ok. I was happy with my soup noodle. Overall, friendly staffs, cute little place for a quick Thai snack after school or in between classes. read more

Very delicious Thai street food located near the Mont Royal trail. What I appreciate was that they have more Thai noodle and rice dishes that are not typical such as Thai wanton noodle and boat noodle. The flavour profile here is rich and a bit sweet, similarly to what you'll find in Bangkok. Service is very fast and responsive. You need to make order and the cash counter & pay before food is served. The ambience is nice and warm. read more

I ordered their Sukhothai Noodles: cold rice noodles with fresh veggies and different types of pork meat. The food presentation was beautiful and the portions are reasonable (if you're hungry: get a side dish!). The noodles came out a little soggy to my taste, but the sauce makes up for it: each bite tasted delicious and the flavour is perfectly balanced! A little bit spicy, sour and sweet. They also have Thai condiments to season your food. A must try! Their desserts tasted okay. The restaurant's ambiance and the decoration is really nice: casual and chic. Even though their place was packed, their service was quick and we didn't had to wait long before getting served. Definitely a place to visit with friends for a quick bite! read more

My cousin recommended this place to satisfy our Thai street food dishes cravings. The resto is in the McGill ghetto so expect a lot of students. It was packed but the service was fast which is fitting for the concept of " cheap " street food. You have to order at the cash and they bring your dishes at your table. The place itself is simple but well decorated. The service was good and fast. We don't find Hanainese Chinese often on menus so my friend and I both ordered that dish out of curiosity to compare to what we had in Thailand. It was quite tasty! My cousin ordered the green curry dish which he found good but tad too sweet for his liking. The dishes are overall quite tasty but portions are small. Perhaps more authentic than other Thai restos but of course not comparable to dishes in Thailand :p They don't serve alcohol which was too bad. I would still come back if I'm around the neighbourhood to try other dishes. Oh and I noticed there were quite a few vegetarian options on the menu which is great. read more

Mae Sri - Fried chicken hainan - Thai Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Not to be dramatic... but Mae Sri serves the best authentic Thai food in the City of Montreal! They have so many great dishes for everyone- vegetarians, people who like spicy food, people who can't handle the spice, etc. Their menu is inspired by the street food in Bangkok and we really think they pulled it off- even though we haven't made it to Bangkok for a visit yet! We tried so much and enjoyed it all! To start, we tried the Thai iced coffee with condensed milk and the Thai lemon iced tea... loved that the drinks were filled with little ice pieces, instead of the usual big cubes and loved the touch of the condensed milk in the coffee, it's worth a try. For the appetizers, we tried homemade Mae Sri fried rolls (nothing like any spring roll you've ever had), the spicy papaya salad and fried chicken salad. That papaya salad really lives up to its hype! Regarding the main meals, we tried (among other things) Baa Mee Moo, Pad Thai Mae Sri, green Curry with rice noodles and the seafood Rad Na! We recommend the homemade pad Thai and the green curry with rice noodles the most- even though we were pleased with everything! The pad Thai is is packed with such delicious and real flavours- we've only ever had it in a fast food place, so it was such a different experience this time. Out of the desserts offered to us, we preferred the mango pudding! So sweet and a perfect way to end such a delicious meal in good company! Something that really stood out here was that all the ingredients were just so fresh- were stuffed at the end, but a good stuffed lol Thanks to Gabriel for the amazing service and for explaining the menu so well :) Thanks for opening our eyes to authentic Thai food, we will definitely be back! read more

Quality comfort thai food. Loved the veggie green curry, I will definitely order it again and it was spiced perfectly. The chicken pad thai had a bit too many peanuts in it and I found the chicken a little dry and too thick (I like thinly cut chicken in stir fry dishes). Based on the veggie green curry alone, and service, I'll give it 5 stars. It's one of the 8 Montreal restaurants endorsed by the Thai Government as authentic Thai! https://www.mtlblog.com/en-ca/eat-drink/montreal/thailand-endorsed-8-authentic-montreal-thai-restaurants-map read more

Even though this restaurant has only been open for about 3 weeks, I've already visited 3 times. I'm feeling lucky these days because I've discovered so many hidden gems in close proximity to my job at McGill! Anyway, back to Mae Sri Thai. You walk in, pay at the counter, have a seat and your food is brought out to you. The quantity + quality of food that you get for the price is almost unbeatable. I've had three dishes (pictures attached); they were all very flavourful and delicious. The food is prepped very quickly, so it's a great option if you'd like a good meal and don't have too much time. With that being said, though the food is great, however it's not quite up to the standard of The flagship location, Pamika yet. I say "yet" because Mae Sri is still fairly new and since the owners are the same, I'm sure they'll be up to par soon. In any event, I recommend Mae Sri. However, I REALLY recommend Pamika! read more

Mae Sri - Pad Thai - Thai Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

You haven't had Thai food like this before at the McGill ghetto/Plateau area. Mae Sri at Milton is a great choice for comfort if you're looking for lunch during the weekend! I'd describe this place with three straightforward words: tasty, convenient, and authentic. Take your pick between their various rice and noodle dishes, order upfront at the counter, and enjoy. It was a cold Sunday afternoon when I visited. The quality customer service appeared right away - the server sat me down and recommended me some fan favourites and personal choices. I decided to get the braised beef noodle soup ($16 after tax and tip) to warm myself up. In less than 5 minutes, the soup came - and how was it? Well, move over Nudo and Nouilles de Lan Zhou... there's a new noodle champion in town. The broth was aromatic and beefy, the braised meat was delicate, and the meatballs provided the salty kick that I was oh so craving. Add in the scallions for some freshness, and you have a deadly combination. I was honestly not expecting a Thai dish to be my favourite noodle experience in Montreal. But here we are! To keep it short, I expect to come here again. Several times at that. I wish they accepted Amex, but oh well. The next time you're craving Thai, give Mae Sri a shot. read more

(Uber delivered) The portions were too small for the price. Pad thai was very underwhelming. Chicken pieces in pad thai were in tiny bits; they were too small. Maybe that's the authentic Thai style; but I didn't like the taste either. I would rather get my occasional Thai food fix at a local Thai Express. My thai iced tea arrived with 1/4 of it spilled (I think it's mainly the delivery guy's fault, but it could've been prevented with a tight lid) read more

Went there for Wednesday dinner and I must say it was crowded and 15-20 minutes wait time mid-week!! But again its a small intimate kind of setting. If you are driving here, parking is a major issue as all majority of the spots in nearby streets have resident parking permit requirement. You can't reserve a table, you need to stand and wait at restaurant. Coming to food, presentation is good but all dishes were way too sweet and had some fish after taste, some fish oil variant must have been used in dishes (Pad Thai and Stir Fry Vegi). Chicken Soup was good and flavorful but again not the best I have had in past. At least couple of staff members seemed overwhelmed with crowd in the restaurant. read more

This place had been a breakfast spot before opening as Mae Sri in November last year. We went tonight around 8h and the place was pretty full. We got seated at the windows after about 5 min, and decided on what to order. I didn't know that ordering was at the counter, so ended up waiting for awhile before a server clarified the situation. We got papaya salad, Pad Thai Mae Sri, Kuai Tiao Tom Yum, Thai Red Syrup with Milk and a Tapioca for dessert. The food came very fast, and was beautifully plated on banana leaves and enamel plates. Portions were not huge but reasonable (leaving room for side dishes!). The pad thai and tom yum soup were good, with well balanced flavors and fresh ingredients. The red syrup drink was fruity and very sweet, but with a smooth finish thanks to the milk. The star, however, was the papaya salad. From the first bite to the last, the salad absolutely **rocked** my world. Very few dishes can marry so many strong flavors - the sweetness of palm sugar, tartness of lime juice, punch of hot chili, pungence of fish sauce - and textures. I couldn't get enough of it! The level of spice was much bolder than I expected, which was a fantastic surprise (just like seeing snow fungus, pork blood and morning glory on the menu!!). Unfortunately, the tapioca was a bit of a miss, as its texture had hardened with the cold. We were very happy with the food, service and pricing. The restaurant had a simple but beautiful interior, with warm, dim lights and cozy wooden structures. A lot of attention was paid to details, down to the choice of tableware and cutlery holders. Bonus points for the restaurant's website's beautiful photos and comprehensive menu, which indicates the name of each item in Thai script, romanized Thai and English. So happy Mae Sri is in the neighborhood!! read more
