Satay Brothers

Satay Brothers is so good. Laksa soup may just be the best coconut curry soup in the city. It comes in a big bowl with noodles, seafood, bean spouts and a hard boiled egg. To me it’s the perfect amount of spicy. I always get the papaya salad and the steamed tofu buns as well.
The food always tastes so clean and fresh. I love going to their stand at the Atwater Market during the summer months and eating at a picnic table. The restaurant on Notre Dame has a more extensive menu, which includes a wonderful seafood noodle dish, and the décor is super cool. It’s low lit with many Chinese lanterns hanging from the wall. It’s normally always packed so I would suggest going early.

Tried out this place with my cousin. Very warm ambience, great staff very friendly.
We ordered the green papaya salad, it came fairly quickly. Some great spice but very bright and acidic. Then we took an order of tofu buns and pork buns.DELICIOUS.
We each took a Laska soup. Great dish, right amount of heat and subtle coconut/​lime flavour. The shrimp were also cooked perfectly.
Overall our experience was great. Would definitely go back and explore the menu.

Food: the downside to this place is sadly the food~ the noodles were bathed in oil, the satay skewers were burned and the papaya salad had a bitter aftertaste this time
Service: very attentive although when it gets busy it can be harder to get the waiter’s attention
Price: honestly the drinks were overpriced, more than half of the pitcher was filled with ice, if I’m paying for a drink, i expect to get REAL drinks, not tons of ice~
Ambiance: lay back lounge-​bar décor, very busy at night. Cute bar to watch the staff at work while u enjoy ur meal, otherwise there are always regular tables~

Had to stop by this place based on reviews. It did not disappoint. I’m glad i did.
We ordered char kwetiao, laksa, buns and mee goreng.
All foods were excellent. Being familiar with singaporean food, the taste is close to being authentic.
Alex our server was amazing. He and his brother took the time to make us a special order of nasi goreng.
Would definitely come back.

I want to love this place more: authentic food that stands out, energetic staff; Laksa Laksa Laksa on a cold winter day. And I’m not the only one who thinks so apparently. But they close down several times a year at seemingly random times, and it’s almost always packed with long-​ish wait times (No reservations?). Signs of a successful restaurant, sure, but its hard to love a restaurant that’s almost always a chore to get to.
Also if you’ve had the luck to travel and enjoy this cuisine in any of its homelands, the menu’s prices will leave a bad taste.

Came here after reading some really good comments.
Even thought the lineup was really long, the table turnover rate was quite high and we (4) got a table really fast.
We basically ordered everything one of everything, pork bun, Papaya salad, short ribs, beef curry, laksa and chicken skewer.
Everything was heavily seasoned, don’t expect to have some natural flavour in there.
Very small portion sizes though.
The service was good until we asked for the bill. The guy wasn’t happy that we wanted to split the bill (there were 4of us). When he punched in the amount for the first person, he entered $ 1 more than what’s on the bill. When we pointed that out, he had a really bad attitude, asked «what do you want, it’s just $ 1» and didn’t even apologize. That was extremely disrespectful and such a bad ending to our meal.

Jeudi soir 20h, restaurant rempli à craquer, premier arrivé, premier servi, pas de réservations. Le serveur était sympa et nous a trouver une place au comptoir de la cuisine après 15 minutes d’attente. Coup de coeur pour les buns au porc, délicieux & fondants dans la bouche, la salade de papaye & les nouilles aux fruits de mer étaient bonnes, les 3 brochettes de viande grillées étaient corrects, le tout avec une bière Tsing Tao pour bien descendre. Bön service. Prix abordables. Par contre, très bruyant comme ambiance. Bonne expérience culinaire à Montréal pour la bouffe singapourienne/​malaisienne, presque comme à Singapour ou Kuala Lumpur pour les non initiés.

J’y vais pour la soupe laksa. Bön service, abordable

La bouffe est toujours magnifique. La meilleure salade de papaye en ville. Les buns sont ultra cochons. Le staff toujours souriant. Les prix parfaits. Ils ont même une excellente IPA. Dans mon top 3 resto a YUL.

Amazing food and staff!!! Took great care of our table and all the dishes we shared were awesome especially the braised beef which was quite spicy :)
