    Pad See Ew with tofu
    Noelle L.

    Great Thai food! They were able to serve us quickly, too despite being really busy . We found street parking close by. Tons of vegetarian options and a huge backyard patio. Great visit!

    Pork Dumplings
    Christine M.

    Really enjoyed the food here! The kao soi was especially amazing and flavorful. Service was great and food came out quick. I enjoyed the beef brisket dish, the meat was tasty. The rich in the plastic wrap got hard pretty quickly. Drunken noodles and pork dumplings were yummy.

    Panang Curry
    Ted K.

    We came to Monsoon Siam a little after 3 pm and unfortunately the lunch menu wasn't available anymore. They did not specifically have panang curry with tofu on the dinner menu, but the server said they were able to make the dish though it would be a dinner portion instead of a lunch portion (no problem here!). I got the panang curry with tofu with a 4 out of 5 spice level - I thought the spice was perfect, the curry was delicious and not too runny. The tofu was really well cooked as well with a firm texture. We sat indoors, the restaurant was quiet at around 3:30 pm; there is indoor and outdoor seating. Free street parking right in front of the restaurant. Very good Thai food and I'm glad we stopped by before leaving Madison!

    Drunken noodles
    Jo L.

    Arrived just as they were unlocking the doors for lunch on a Sunday. Our meals were very good. Nice flavors. Service more than solid (regularly checked on us) and friendly. I like too that the credit card machine is brought to the table The presentation was beautiful Only improvement would be to have my Pad Thai a bit warmer, I was wondering if it was ready before my companion's meal and cooled more than a bit.

    Boat Noodle Soup with Beef
    Alex W.

    Fast service and cozy ambience. I got the boat noodle soup and it was solid - tasted like a more peppery version of pho. Some comments from other dishes my friends got: drunken noodles tasted good but wish there was more meat, train fried rice was filling, pad Thai tasted and looked good but portion size was a little too small.

    Thai Table
    Gabby N.

    Wonderful, accommodating staff and delicious food. We had to wait a while for a table on a Thursday evening (25 minutes), but the staff made sure to check on us every now and then and gave us menus to review while we waited. The food for our table of five came out a little staggered, but our party didn't have to wait very long before we all had our dishes. If you're trying to decide on what to order, the Thai Table is a fun smorgasbord of a lot of their menu options. It was definitely enough food for two people! This is a wonderful restaurant, and I'll keep coming back for delicious Thai food!

    Spring rolls
    Sho R.

    I stopped by on a Saturday evening. There was a short wait. Shrimp drunken noodles was my favorite item here. Chicken Massaman cury with roti was really good as well. The spring rolls were crispy.

    Pad See Ew lunch special
    Jenni W.

    My friend told me that this was her favorite Thai restaurant in Madison, and after getting lunch takeout on Friday, I gotta say that I agree. Madison has several Thai restaurants and I've tried several of them and sadly been disappointed by their curry and noodle dishes. I ordered the pad see ew with beef for lunch carryout and their fresh rolls. My husband got the green curry (with beef) and was also pleasantly surprised by how good it was even after waiting to eat it 2 hours after it was made. My pad see ew was very flavorful and didn't skimp out too much on the meat. The beef was a little dry/overcooked but not too bad. I also really appreciated that the noodles weren't overcooked and still slightly chewy. I would definitely come back for the lunch special and also maybe to try some of their dinner items at the restaurant (rather than takeout)!

    Khao soi
    Jenny K.

    Monsoon Siam has a nice cozy atmosphere. Stopped by for dinner on a Saturday. We got there at around 5ish and it was a little busy but we were seated immediately. Service was very nice and friendly. We had the spring rolls as an appetizer. Flavor was okay, however, it was very oily as every bite had a lot of oil dripping out. I got the khao soi as my main and this was very tasty and had a good kick to it. The soup was on the thicker side. Loved the crispy noodles on top.

    Spring Rolls and chicken Pad Thai
    Masha V.

    Came here while I was in town for work and it did not disappoint! Ordered the chicken pad Thai and I absolutely love how it comes out wrapped in an omelette, how genius! It was a huge, delicious portion - I had enough for 3 servings. I also had the spring roll, which was ok. I wasn't a fan of the thick peanut sauce. It was too thick and had too much peanut butter. The service was quick and the place is small but cozy. I like the outdoor seating in back!

    Runzer W.

    A nice Thai restaurant in Madison! I ordered a Thai coffee and it was so good! The serving people are pretty friendly and efficient. My two friends and I ordered three plates to share and we were too full to finish all of them. We really liked the yellow curry beef ribs!

    Great food! My favorite was the beef rib yellow curry, I was really impressed with it. The drunken noodles had the wok hay and depth in its flavor. The Thai table platter was pretty good, and I think it's a good option if you're looking for variety. The crying tiger was surprisingly good and its flavor profile was unique. I'll circle back and recommend the beef rib curry again. Service was good, the wait was not long at all, and the energy was good in there. I recommend!

    Pad See Ew
    Naomi W.

    I always heard really good things about Monsoon Siam, and it was for good reason! The restaurant was busy with some many people enjoying their food. I loved all the plating and the food tasted so yummy. Everything was seasoned so well and the sticky rice that came with the crying tiger helped make things come together. Definitely a restaurant I recommend going to if you're on the East side of Madison.

    I visited Luang Prabang, a Lao-Thai cart on Library Mall, a few times earlier this year. They had a…read moreregular menu that included curries, noodles, and salads, but also a rotating daily menu, all at very affordable prices. The people working at the cart were really nice and accommodating, and were happy to modify any dish they could for ingredients that you can't or don't eat. The first thing I tried was the squash curry, which was a really generous portion size for $7, consisting of rice topped with a rich coconut milk-based curry filled with chicken, kabocha, and zucchini. It was really filling and tasty. But the real winner from the cart after a few visits was the avocado spring roll, which was $3.50 and the size of a burrito. It was basically a giant fresh roll filled with avocado, lettuce, cabbage, mint, rice noodles, cucumber, carrot, and peanut sauce. We got the medium spicy sauce, and it had a fantastic kick to it. Still can't believe something so large was only a few dollars, as it was such a great deal. Definitely worth trying this cart if you're looking for something to eat on campus.

This is a place where I enjoy the appetizers more than the entrees. They have a big menu, so I feel that is where they kind of struggle with a star entree for me. Thai iced tea - too much half and half so couldn't really taste the tea Papaya salad - medium spicy level, had a kick at first but it wasn't present throughout the rest of the salad. Not that flavorful so if you're looking for the sour and strong taste, wouldn't recommend this. Pan fried Pork dumplings - it's fake pork but I can't even tell the difference! The sauce is great and not super salty. Egg roll with spring roll - unique item but didn't stand out. Egg roll gave a crunch but not much taste Spring roll - always a solid choice. The sauce is amazing! Umami and perfect amount of salty. Coconut sticky rice - more like a soup/congee texture. It was hot and the coconut rice overpowered the mango so it didn't have a cohesive taste. 2 individual bathrooms. Parking is free but difficult to find. Would recommend making a reservation. Service was ok, had to look for our waitress a couple of times for more napkins and water refills.

My friend said that the curry was amazing and they definitely want to come again for that. My other friend didn't like the pad Thai that much and had to put a lot of sauce on it. They thought the soup and the spring rolls were decent and didn't have any complaints. Pork Larb is my favorite food and I really didn't enjoy the pork Larb here. It had carrots in it which I had never seen before and it was incredibly dry and sweet. They also didn't have sticky rice I could order unless it was the sticky rice for dessert with coconut milk in it which I didn't want. It also costed me extra for cucumber and lettuce which should automatically come with it (who eats Larb by itself???). As far as ambiance goes, it was kind of dark in there but the decor and atmosphere was okay. The service was very nice but they did forget some of our food at one point. I really like the server who brought our food though; she was charming and enjoyable to talk to. Overall, I see great potential with this place and really only wish the best. With some tweaking and recipe perfection, this could be a good, treasured spot in the area.
