Reviews Summary

Satay Brothers is celebrated for its vibrant atmosphere and authentic Singaporean street food, with many praising the flavorful pork belly buns and laksa. However, some diners find the portion sizes to be small for the price, and suggest it might be more suited for drinks and ambiance than a substantial meal.

"One of my colleagues highly recommended this place (infact she was adamant we try it out) and glad we took her recommendation! Got to try a few things on the menu and most of it slaps. Definitely check out the fried chicken buns and the skewers. Flavourful, fresh ingredients and the skewers had a unique smokey but a piercing marinating sauce effect to it - gotta try it to believe it. If you’re in the area or want something different - check it out!"

Moin Chowdhury

"It was unclear how to get a table. The host disregarded us and then sat us in a corner. It was extremely hot in there, especially where we were. Slower service as well. They brought the wrong drink, even though I ordered a different one. Cute atmosphere though and yummy food. Good place to eat before a night out. Highly recommend the pork belly buns."

Natalie Van Raalte

"From the line to the decorations, this place is busy but still worth it. We tried to make a reservation but they didnt answer the few times we called and we found out why when we got there. It was packed with people waiting in groups outside and at the bar next door. About 30m later we got a bar spot and just got the papaya salad since there were not any vegiterian options that caught our eye. I was hoping they would have vegiterian kao soi or phad thai but they are not that type of thai place. The papaya salad was pretty good. Maranated in a lime juice and mixed with an assortment of peppers, nuts, etc it had great contrast in flavors and textures. Overall a good thai place."

The Best Spots For Cheap Eats In Montreal

St. HenriWhat you're getting: Laksa Lemak or steamed bunsIn the summer, the Satay Brothers peddle their expertly made Singaporean fare from a colourful stall at Atwater Market, and the lines go around the block. But in wintertime, the brothers can be found just around the corner in St. Henri -- and their food is no less vibrant, fragrant, and cheap, at less than $10 for a decent meal.

The Warmth of Montreal's Food Scene Will Always Be Its Draw

There is never a bad season to hold hands over a romantic meal at Alma or Heni or to gather with friends for a lively dinner at Marci or Satay Brothers. The places I love the most, though, are the ones I know by heart, like L'Express, a French bistro and Montreal institution where I grab a bar seat after a long day. I start with the liver pâté and cornichons.

We challenge you to find a better pork bao bun on this side of the Pacific Ocean. Satay Brothers, the Singaporean street food restaurant founded by Alex and Mat Winnicki, makes their buns with a hulking cut of pork belly and a perfectly fluffy steamed bao bun. And hoisin sauce, cilantro and cucumbers top things off.

You would never wanna miss their signature Green Papaya Salad, which is heavenly heaven with a crunchy texture, heightened by a symphony of spicy, acidic, fresh flavors from chilies, lime, and coriander. We would say this dish has gained such a reputation for Satay Brother.

Filipino cuisine 101

It’s somehow managed to linger outside the foodie consciousness, avoiding the ludicrously long lines that befall izakayas and the breathlessness that accompanies Chowhound debates on things like Shanghai-style soup dumplings. But that’s bound to change. Our city’s meager non-Vietnamese Southeast Asian food offerings have recently gotten a boost from the openings of Ruby Burma, Satay Brothers and Petite Mangue.
