Go to place for Thai cravings especially on a weekend! Their food is authentic and delicious but sometimes the service takes longer which is understandable. Overall, I hope they will be there forever because they really serve good meals!
Love the food presentation for the Tom Yum as it looks like that in Thailand - taste really good and brought me back to Thailand . Their crispy porkchop is a must try!!! so good, crispy and juicy plus the batter is thin.
Beef curry have a hint of spice with savory sauce good pair with rice.

Restaurant needs to be remodeled and professionally painted. Food didn't arrive super hot, especially if its being prepared fresh, made me question a few things. Nats/ 🪰 were flying around the food, which makes me suspect of the cleaning of the establishment.

The food was good but we were basically ignored from the moment we walked in until we left. Not a busy night and some staff were standing around near the entrance but no one greeted or seated us until I waved someone down. Very long time to take our order or come back to see if we needed anything after our food came. The prices have doubled since before the pandemic even though supply chain issues have resolved. And no one acknowledged our leaving. We felt invisible. Any it was only our small party and one other large party there. Also constant Christmas music was a little much.

The food is so good! Full of flavor, Tasting fresh. If “spicy-hot” dishes are a concern, just ask for the dish to be made “mild” or “no spice”. Staff is friendly. The restaurant is clean with a quiet atmosphere that allows you to have a conversation. Comfortable seating. I’ve gotten take-out a few times and I have also dined in. Can be pricey$$$ but worth the cost for medium-large servings.

Service was very slow. Our party of 4 was served separately and all had our food/meals at different times. Place was freezing cold. Food was just 'OK', and at time of payment the bill the server just about demanded a tip!

Tom khra gai was weird. It wasn't creamy white, chicken fat floaters, and lemongrass was brown. Sweet and sour fish was the worst, almost likeit was cooked in premade sauce. Just not worth it.

We used to love coming here before there was like a new management change or something, because food was not the same, there was barely anyone working, and the lady that was working was extremely rude to the cooks. She was screaming at them the entire time asking if they understood the words coming out of her mouth bc the cooks working behind the line were hispanic. After experiencing this, i knew i wasnt coming back again. I do not respect places that do not treat or talk to their workers with respect and kindness. Maybe she was overwhelmed bc she was the only one taking orders and serving food but regardless, thats not the way.
Food was mediocre. Definitely not authentic thai food. Coming from a thai person herself.

The pad Thai here is very good, loaded with a bunch of meats and veggies, appetizers like the wings are very juicy and flavorful, but that's not all they also have wine!

After going to the shopping mall a friend and I decided to give this place a try and we were so pleased that we have decided to come back soon.
What was super pleasing was the portion of tofu in our meal. We both noticed that most Thai restaurants are stingy with tofu but not Monkey Thai.

I stumbled upon this restaurant and was pleasantly surprised! Make sure to try the yellow curry and the jasmine rice – it's excellent! The set lunch menu is also excellent and very reasonably priced!

Monkey Thai has a friendly, warm vibe with kind, attentive service and orchids decorating the space. We had pad thai, pumpkin curry and yellow curry, all were very good and presented nicely with orchids on the plate. Bonus that you can walk across the street to south shore.
