Thai Express Restaurant Lasalle — Restaurant in Montreal

Thai Express is my long time friend.

This is a franchise fast food chain, and for some reason quality varies greatly from one place to another.

A safe choice would be fried rice, be it basil or Thai flavor

This particular place has seen a drop in quality recently. The meals were never anything to die for, but at least the portions were huge and the food satisfying. Now the portions are smaller, which is not necessarily a bad thing, and of ''lesser tastiness'', but the prices stayed the same.

They have changed the plates to cardboard ones, that do absorb some of the juices. Because of that, and the fact that they do keep their promise to be fast, mostly by cutting corners in the coking process, the meat and the vegetables will be warm or hot, while the noodles and the sauce may be burning hot. Since the ingredients, especially the noodles only spent a very small amount of time in the pan, most of the flavor simply drips to the bottom of the plate.

It remains a Thai Express location, so they get shipments of their ingredients prepared in advance, most notably the meat. Still, the preparation of the meals could use some more effort.

I am not a very good cook but I can easily make a tastier pad sew at home, that's how simple the meal is to make.

They stopped aggressively asking for a tip by making it the default choice if you are paying by card, but I wonder if they split the tips among all staff. I would only be interested in tipping the cook, and that is if he makes an effort to...

I have visited twice. My first visit I asked a Pad Thai Beef but somehow they misunderstood and made me a General Thai Beef. Was my fault not checking the screen. The food was okay. My Second visit I ordered the Pad Thai by telling them the number. I got the right food.

Right of the bat, i realized they cook the noodle differently from other Thai Express. And yes some small ingredient were missing but that is everywhere I go in the angrignon mall(Other restaurant will have their food still in menu but depending how they work, they can either cook with missing ingredient or not cook at all and ask you to pick something else). The noodle was good. Aside the beef was okay. But it is still good.

I usually order Pad thai whenever i visit Thai Express. I always was disappoint how the chef usually over cook the food with a pool of sauce that looks like a noodle soup and less a pad thai. This is probably the best one from other thai express since the...

the portion is sufficient even for a man, the staff was nice and package is perfect, not a drip of soup was leaked which is very pleasant. BUT i have to say the soup noddles i orderd is just salty nothing else, yep i was litteraly shocked by the first bite. the bean sprout is uncooked, so it has a wired taste of dirt. i haven't finished it all, i hate wating food but i have to. the fried noodles was better than i thought, (dont try spicy its a littel bit of hot even for a chiness enjoying eating spicy food, just try mild). and the drink iced pandan was amazing (totally recommended) but the price was way too high, if there is not a coupon (Ubereats) for me, i will never order it. complicated feelings. so if you need a dish for u to feed your stomach, i only recommend...
