Restaurant Asie Moderne - Saint-Laurent

A friend had raved about this place and took me there today. We had four dishes and all were amazing. Their specialty seems to be Cambodian food, which I don't know much about but I loved everything my friend ordered. We had some basa fillets baked in a green curry sauce that took a while to arrive but was worth the wait. Stir-fried watercress in a garlicky sauce was fantastic and the lok lak beef was cubes of meat basted with a great sauce and with a great side sauce for dipping. Having just returned from a trip to Thailand, I ordered their shredded green papaya salad which had a great dressing a lots of plump shrimp. The soups I saw on the other tables also looked wonderful. Most dishes can be ordered in regular and small size, which would be great for trying lots of dishes.

We tried Vietnamese dishes (shrimp, veggies) and the amount and quality were great. We also liked the Singapore noodles. Not sure about the northern Asian dishes, but the southern Asian ones were really good. Even the kids liked them a lot.

Came here during an evening. Aesthetically, the restaurant looks old, just like all the furniture.The menu contains picture of each dish that leaves to be desired for lots of presentations.Ordered a soup, veggies, and 2 meats (General Tao attempt and fried squid).Soup was fair, veggies were bland, the General Tao had way too much coating than meat itself, and the squid was small in size. The poor seasoning and sauce didn't help increase the taste of these meals, and the rice we received had a burned bottom. Overall, price was fair a best.Cooking quality is not to be expected at a restaurant level.

The service at this restaurant is extremely polite and professional. The food is delicious, with a wide variety of fantastic Asian dishes to choose from. A definite must-try for visitors to Montreal.

We have been coming to this restaurant for years. Everything on the menu is excellent. Even though we now live far away, we make sure to visit this restaurant whenever we are in the city. I have not been able to find another dish as delicious as their lok...lac. I highly recommend it!
