Mouth Watering dishes, quaint atmosphere. One of Shawnigan Lake's Gems! This restaurant is a favorite for locals. At the moment they are Take-out Only. In comparison to R-Harn Thai Restaurant also in Shawnigan.... Montra has more vegetables in their dishes. My regular order is the Prawn Thai or the red curry, Chicken Panang! 😋😋

If you are looking for authentic Thai this is your place. In comparison to Montra Thai Eatery I would say there are less vegetables in their dishes. They do have a sit in service whereas Montra is take-out only.
