C'était pas incroyable mais quand même bon. J'avais trop faim et on a bien mangé. J'étais reconnaissante de la diversité d'options végétariennes et surtout la cuisson du tofu dans notre sandwich satay et le tempeh dans notre salade gado gado. Ma seule note c que je trouvais qu'il y avait trop de la sauce satay partout (je sais qu'on avait pris deux plats avec cela mais quand même un peu trop) et qu'elle n'était pas très complexe et un peu trop sucré pour mes goûts.
It's so good that it makes us sad we don't live around the corner so we can get our fixes as often as we like. The Kway Teow is sooo sooo good. Closest we've had to back in Singapore. We've had this dish all over, and this is the best we've had. The noodles are amazing, perfect texture and flavor. Love that it comes with the correct sides of cut chili and chili sauce. Would definitely recommend.
My favourite food stand at the Atwater market. The offering here is limited to the best-sellers, and it's just as good as the main restaurant. Our favourites: pork buns and papaya salad. The perfect portion to share and still have enough space to try other things at the market.
I was eyeing Satay bros prior to coming up to MTL. My friends and I definitely agreed the food here was definitely a highly of our trip. We came to Atwater market on a busy early Saturday AM. We ordered the papaya salad, Satay skewers, Satay sandwich, pork bao, regular laksa soup, and lemonade with Bourbon. Between the 6 of us we literally ate everything off the plate or bowl. The soup was my favorite. Rich bold flavors with a creamy coconut broth. The skewers and sandwich of the day are must orders as well. Price wise food here is reasonable and we left stuffed with what we ordered. Located right in the market they do have seating right next to their station. Highly recommend Satay bros if you want a nice variety of Singaporean food.

Satay Brothers is one of the eateries that you can try while visiting Atwater Market. I only ordered the "laksa" and it's chili coconut soup with bean sprouts, tofu, shrimp, sliced fish cakes, and noodles. There's also an option to add chicken for a few dollars more. I wished there more noodles in the dish. I can't tell if the favors are authentic since this was my first time having laksa, but I did enjoy my meal tho. Overall, the food prices here seemed reasonable. Please note that it's a CASH ONLY place.
As usual, Satay Brothers is always a great spot for some noodz and things. Came here w my mom this passed weekend for some Chai Tau Kueh, Laksa (duh!) & Satay skewers. There's always something new popping up on their menu and I had to try the Chai Tau Kueh, a Singaporean breakfast staple that was being sold to me so hard by the cashier (Hey, he did a great job! Lol!) It's essentially cubes of carrot cake, fried w eggs & daikon & things and eaten w sambal. (The concept is similar to Vietnamese "bột chiên" where they fry cubes of steamed rice flour cake in eggs and spring onions) The laksa & skewers were good as usual. The vibe was lively and fun as always. I'm glad life is starting again everywhere, especially the food stalls :)
I was at Atwater market for fresh fruits and vegetables shopping. While walking in between in the stunning plants and flowers, the hunger strikes! Decided to visit Satay Brothers kiosk. The service was amiable. I ordered two tofu steamed buns and pork papaya salad for my sister and a coke can. Unfortunately, the taste was the food wasn't up to mark. Tofu steamed buns were missing the kick flavor, and the sauce was way too salty. The papaya salad was super watery, and you can imagine it was not easy to eat with chopsticks. But the both dishes' presentations were beautiful and colorful. At least, the food helped with my hunger.
Got the laksa and it was pretty good. The broth wad very creamy and flavorful. It had shrimp, fish cakes, fried tofu and some herbs. The noodles were too soft and were falling apart but the combination with the chop suey made it better.
So damn delicious. The Hokkien Mee was outstanding. The noodles were cooked perfectly and the shrimp and pork cracklings were a perfect compliment.
Gotta give it to them their food is crazy flavourful. I first tried satay brothers at the other location and wasn't a fan. I decided once in for all that the steam buns needed to be purchased so I got in a little roped line where there was 5 ppl ahead of me. I got 2 buns 2 sandwich and a papaya green salad. Sandwich of the day was a meat sandwich tasted almost like hamburger and a well seasoned kefta. The other sandwich was okay but lacking meat. I 100 percent will be back
A delicious menu that can be the top of many lists but the sandwich is worth the extra effort. A beautiful mix of seasonings dances on the tongue as you savour each bite of this abundant beast. Very well cooked meat and perfectly crispy bread is enjoyable rain or shine. ( Thanks to the tents at Atwater market we were able to enjoy it in the former)
Can you believe I've never stepped foot into Atwater Market? Well, nestled away in one of the stalls is a super popular Indonesian/Malaysian/Singaporean spot, Satay Brothers. They've become so popular that they have an actual restaurant in St. Henri (about a 5 minute walk away) that's open for dinner when the market shuts down. Hours coincide with the market although they're closed Monday and Tuesday. First time I came, they were closed but that just meant I could take pictures in peace. Drink menu - interesting that you can order pitchers. Perfect for summer drinking. Even though they have a paper menu, the board menu reflects actual prices. The stall is very laid back and the guys working there are very cool. We sat at the two counter seats on the side and got to chat with some of the workers, which was pretty entertaining. Even when they were shutting things down to move to the restaurant, they didn't rush us. Heck, they gave us some chicken satay skewers on the house. - Calamansi lemonade ($3.50) - Green papaya salad ($8.00) - Laksa lemak ($11.50) - Chicken satay skewers I can't really think of any other places in town that specialize in south-east Asian cuisine so you'll have to make due with Satay Brothers to get your fix. Not a bad way to end my trip!

Laksa was decent. It was served with the wrong chili: a sambal, which was quite good. The laksa had the right noodles & gravy but it was a bit dilute. There was some laksa leaf. The fishcake was not springy. There were 2 crispy tofu puffs, shrimp & a quail egg. Satay was better. Octopus was good with nice char, tasty & tender. Shrimp was tasty but not fresh. The sauces seemed closer to Indonesian ones. One was like hoisin with peanuts & the other was soy sauce & vinegar. read more

A few months ago we were at the Atwater Market. We found this place on Yelp and decided to come here based on the reviews. The first time we came here we had a great experience. The food was delicious and service was extremely friendly!! We loved the spot but were in a hurry so couldn't really relax and enjoy our meal. But we decided we would come again soon! A few weeks ago I was flying out for a vacation. My husband and I decided to visit this spot again since we had been meaning to come here since our last visit. We went here all the way from Mont Royal right before my flight. This was our first meal of the day, we were both hungry so we ordered a few things for the table. We sat here for an hour, finished our meal and left and within five minutes of leaving the place I compulsively started vomiting. Vomited for thirty minutes and then couldn't even stand without support. I immediately got a fever and started to sweat, so we took an Uber to the hospital only to find out I had gotten severe food poisoning. Since my husband had eaten the same food and was unaffected, the only explanation we could come up with was that either it was their house hot sauce. I love hot sauces and spicy food so had asked them for their hot sauce. Or their chicken satay skewer with peanut sauce since he had skipped that as well. Regardless of a good past experience here, I would not recommend a place to anyone that made me this sick because of their food. read more

So excited when I saw this place at Atwater Montreal Canada. My excitement evaporated once i taste the satay This place is definitely not an authentic satay place, the taste has been modified to fit the local people. Ordered the laksa, it has the same taste, bland and not rich as normal laksa should has. Also ordered the pork bun, came with two portion, the pork is too sweet, not my favorite. They open until 5pm, and offer tap local beer. If you just want to try or to fill in your stomach, maybe this is a place for you. If you are looking for good satay, this is not recommended. read more

Absolutely delicious Malaysian food! That Laska was one of the best bowls of soup we have ever had! Not to be missed. It was PACKED full of flavor with just the right amount of kick. They can and will eliminate items for dietary reasons. That and a local IPA on tap was a perfect treat for hubs and I to share on a rainy, romantic autumn day. They also offer buns and satay (obviously) of all kinds, even tempeh for a veg friendly option and of course papaya salads. It all looked delicious. The guys were so friendly and we joked around with them. Cool dudes. We enjoyed sitting casually on the picnic tables right there after shopping the market. I think we lucked out as we came just before closing on a Saturday. There was no line at all! Cash only. read more

The iced tea is the best iced tea I'd ever had. It had a very natural passion fruit flavour and the tea itself is extremely smoothy. The chicken satay is really soft and tender. The satay sauce is not very flavorful, but have a very strong taste of peanuts. The only place that I didnt like is their tables. It is very dirty and sticky. read more

Satay Brothers is the best food I have had in Montreal. Full Stop. Run by two Asian-Polish brothers Matt and Alex who grew up in the hood and know what food needs to be and what is missing from Montreal eats. They source their meat from the local butcher and use the freshest ingredients. They operate a tight ship of flavor that will have you addicted upon first taste. I remember coming in for the first day this 2012 season and bought the chicken satay (which comes with marinated cucumbers and a to-die-for nut sauce), and Alex gave me a sampling of their Laksa soup. I sat down and was in no way prepared for the intsta-foodboner (WHICH HAS YET TO SUBSIDE ON MULTIPLE VISITS). Since I live in the hood I come fairly often, and not just because Alex has a charm no one can escape. Their satays change depending on the day (chicken, pork, shrimp). If you're really hungry go for the papaya salad that is a perfect addition of crunch and acid for the satay. I've never had the steamed pork bun but my friend did and he loved it. If only I wasn't gluten free I would eat their whole menu... in one go. Plus, they have a staff of some of the cutest guys in the hood. I don't mind. The thought of them opening a resto makes my whole body full of mini explosions in anticipation. Go here! Wait in the crazy line! Just do it. Honestly, it's worth it. So worth it. Plus, what else are you gonna eat? Carbs and carbs? read more
Great place to stop for a bite at the Atwater market! The people behind the counter are always fun to talk to and service is always with a smile. There is usually a line up but worth the wait. Had the tofu buns with niki papaya salad witch was incredible. The chilies pack punch so if u can't take the heat move them aside. read more
Was really looking forward to coming here after reading numerous reviews. Singaporean/Indonesian/Malay is a great meal when I can find a restaurant that serves it in it's fragrant, flavourful and spicy manner. Here at Satay Brothers the vibe is low key. It's basically a summer food court whereby you eat at communal picnic tables. I'm cool with that as it's summer and your eating under a tent and there's are scents of food in the air. Very laid back. For lunch I had ordered the laksa, 3 satay sticks and a papaya salad. I was really looking forward to a great meal but was seriously underwhelmed. The laksa although looked great was lacking in some flavour. The chicken satay although you could taste was marinated in coconut milk the peanut sauce was bland. The papaya salad was probably the best out of everything but again Paris Pho does a better version. As others have mentioned portions here are a tad on the smaller size. The 3 satay sticks are seriously a joke as they are some of the smallest satay skewers I've ever seen. For me overall the food was a 2.75 stars. They could use a bit of galangal, ginger, lemongrass and Thai birdseye chilies to give it more flavour. I respect however that this is their gameplan and I'm a mere observer. If you have the opportunity and want to check out what I consider top notch Malaysian/Indonesian food to check out is Restoran Malaysia in Richmond Hill. Or one of the many Banana Leaf restaurants in Vancouver. In Montreal however there is not a huge amount of Indo/Malay restaurants so they can get away with smaller portions and charging a bit more. My next place I need to check out is Gado Gado. Overall it's okay I was just expecting so so much more! read more
Satay brothers, please move to London! I could do with eating this more often!! We arrived at Atwater market in the late afternoon, so it should have been long after the main lunch rush...but there was still a long queue of people waiting for their satay goodness! I'm glad we joined the line as this was a truly delicious snack! I thought I wasn't very hungry so I tried a chicken satay stick and a pork bun. They were both really good, although maybe a little small...once I tried them I felt like I could have eaten double that amount. Oops. My husband went for the satay sandwich, which was better value and turned out to be huge and gorgeous. My advice for future satay-munchers: Order slightly more than you think you can eat as the line is so long you won't want to go back and order all over again. Even if you're not hungry, their food is so good it will make you want to eat a little more. read more

Pork buns are always my fav! Very authentic Singaporean food. The laksa broth is flavorful and rich. read more
Pretty good singaporean restaurant considering how small the kitchen was and how fast the food came out. i ordered the laksa lemak and chicken skewers. I was pretty disappointed with the laksa. the noodles were clearly far from fresh- as they were short and quite chewy, contrary to traditional soft and long laksa noodles, and also mostly consisted of bean sprouts. It lacked the undertones of spice and flavor laksa has and was quite plain. The chicken skewers were pretty good. They had flavor, but were far from extraordinary. Although the sauce that came with it really made the dish much better. it was also served with cucumbers which i though were a good touch. The service was quite good and we got our food quickly. The tables were clean and the staff looked put together. i probably wouldn't come here again but it is worth a try. read more
