Reviews for Restaurant Talay Thai in Montréal, QC

I don't like leaving bad reviews for restaurants but this place was so bad that I had to make an exception. I placed a fairly... large order for delivery and every single item was so bad that I couldn't finish it (had planned to eat some items now and somelater, ended up trying them all in the vain hopes that one would actually be edible). The Tom Kha was just coconut broth withthree chunks of chicken thrown in. The fried tofu was soggy. The coffee was very grainy and slightly rancid tasting. And thedrunken noodles, while not as bad as the other items, were shockingly bland. Judging by the photos and the other reviews, itappears their in-house dining is way better than their delivery service. Read more

YUCK! Worst phad Thai I have ever had. I had two bites and threw it out. The second bite was to confirm it was as bad as the... first bite told me it was. My mistake. Should have been 1 bite. Totally awful food. What a rip off. I used to go to this placeoften before covid and will never go back. Gross. Read more

As a thai myself, I can say that this is one of the worse thai food I?ve ever eaten. No where near authentic. Corn and brocoli... In a tom kha? Their pad thai sauce is essentially just ketchup. Price wise, it?s more affordable than most places but don?t befooled! ???? You?ll get better food at thai express. Read more

Ordered delivery in the hopes of some comfort-noodles after a rough day. The positive is that the order was prepared and... delivered in a reasonable time frame (about 35 minutes) and arrived still warm. The noodle dishes I ordered (pad thai shrimp andpad si ew beef) were really not good. The pad thai noodles had a squishy texture and the sauce had a slightly sweet flavour butI did not taste tamarind or any other flavour at all. The pad si ew sauce looks and tastes like flavourless brown gravy and thedish was covered in black pepper. The red curry with chicken + side of rice is the only thing I ordered that tasted the way itusually would from a Thai restaurant. The curry had fresh vegetables and a good taste and level of spice. The pieces of chickenwere not great though. They were just these big dry cubes of chicken breast rather than the usual thinly sliced juicier thighpieces. It is possible that the noodle dishes were just not to my taste and others would like it, but I would not order fromhere again. Read more

Overpriced for what it is. Very little chicken in my chicken Pad Thai. Also the waiter we had was absolutely terrible. Forgot my... friend's drink, was not very knowledgeable about the restaurant's specials and promotions, and seemed to be very aloof. Read more

Loved the pad sew. Will return :) the soups in the left column of the menu were pretty average but the veggie tofu soup (instead... of wontons because I try to stay meat free) was really good. Loved the mixed veggies and tofu in red curry sauce with stickyrice and the other similar dish on the vegetarian options that?s the second one down on the right ???? would be nice if they putmore veggie options on the lunch special menu. The sweet sticky rice with coconut milk and mango was a nice way to finish themeal. Sorry I don?t remember the names of all the dishes ! I?ll update when I can Read more

Chicken Thai Curry with sticky rice is definitely a MUST TRY! The Shrimp Pad Thai noodles was good but had very few pieces of... shrimps. The Mango with Sticky Rice and Coconut Milk was a sweet delightful ending to our delicious meal! Will order again. Read more

I visited the restaurant for supper on a rainy day and the place was very quiet. With big windows, it must be nice to have a... lunch sitting on a window seat on a sunny day. All dishes are $13-$20 and customers can bring their wine. I ordered Greenchicken curry set #4 and I loved what I chose. For set menu, we can choose soup and drink(canned drinks or green tea, gingertea, jasmine tea) Read more
