Mon Thai Bistro and Sushi Bar

There are a lot of options at the Mon. The place is very cozy and the staff is very friendly.

Enjoyed the rice soup — good ginger flavor; would prefer less rice and more broth. Soup was hot and stayed hot! The salmon crispy spicy roll was tasty and nice flavor– not too spicy. Sweetie had potstickers and beef lo mein. We will be back — a little noisy inside.
Had a great dinner tonight and service was good. I had tuna and sweetie had pot stickers steamed with chicken and veggies in side –the sauce was spicy ! For dinner he had korta beef which is ribeye in chile sauce.
We both are members of the clean plate club!

Good food and nice atmosphere. Good place for a date. And good for friends and family, prices aren’t bad either and oh… ask for the Vietnamese spring roll tho it comes in two they are a good appetizer.

Mon is hands down amazing. My husband and I have been dining here for a few years and have never been disappointed. The highlights: fast service and fresh, quality sushi, their hot dishes, especially their curry is something to not be missed. It’s a total Mom and pop place where they are quick to learn your name and face. We’ve had pretty bad experiences at other sushi places and mon never fails to satisfy our sushi cravings. Although the sushi is top notch it’s the friendly and accepting customer service that keeps us coming back. Truly great folks who run it and employ great servers

I don’t know what to say. This place makes some mean food! An easy 5 stars. I’ll be back soon

So many Asian places have their core competencies and then go «hey … sushi’s a great way to make some extra money,» so they tack on a sushi bar but really half-​ass the attempt. Mon has done a great job of excelling on the Thai side, and she leaves the sushi bar up to consummate professionals. You want to start with a cup of Thai noodle soup, then have some woonsen and a couple pieces of tuna nigiri? No problem. Edamame to pick at while waiting for your pla mauk prik … great idea. Sake to accompany the tom kha, obviously. Mon Thai’s setting is unique, set way off busy Broadway, you’d hardly even know you were right in the heart of town. The staff is always friendly, but quick, and the prices are spot on for the quantity and quality.

Just came home with a take out order from Mon’s Thai Bistro.
We ordered salmon sushi, Vietnamese Rolls and General Tso Chicken.
The sushi and Vietnamese rolls were OK, but the General Tso Chicken (the main dish) was inedible.
The chicken was chewy and tasteless. After the third bite my wife and I couldn’t eat any more and had to throw it in the garbage. Very disappointed.
Start with inferior product (chicken) it can’t be disguised with sauce and rice. Just sayin.

I very much like Mon Thai. I have lunch here most Saturdays.
I think the appetizers, which aren’t just Thai, are quite good. I especially like the simple «Thai butterflies», a riff on crab Rangoon (though if they have any crab, I don’t taste it, which makes me happy), crispy and creamy from the cream cheese melted in them. But truly all the appetizers are tasty.
Oh, I guess it would be only fair to note that you get a complimentary cup of soup when you come in. If you’re really hungry, it’s quite welcome. But even if you aren’t, it’s a nice touch.
I often get the Chinese or Chinese-​inspired entrees. Each is good, though none are quite what I’ve had in any other restaurant. But I quite enjoy that.
Some of the Thai dishes are delicious. All are served in generous portions. I’m not a fan of the pad Thai, but on the other hand, I truly love the pineapple fried rice.
I miss some of the kinds of dishes that are served at Thai restaurants that serve mostly Thai customers, but in fact, most of the customers are from San Antonio, so that wouldn’t really make sense.
The sushi looks great and people seem very happy when they’re eating it (I just don’t like seafood, which leaves out most sushi.)

This place is always good. It has become our only choice for Thai food and sushi. Great ambiance.

The food is great. All the employees have a great attitude. The atmosphere is nice and peaceful. I would most definitely be coming here more often!!!

Great hidden gem. If it was cooler we definitely would of sat outside in the beautiful patio.
We had the pad Thai & sushi. Both were delicious!
Service was great too!

Good Thai food, and good sushi? Yes.
While on the hunt for good sushi my partners and I found this place. It was absolute love. I’m a vegetarian, and sometimes it’s difficult to find a good vegetarian roll. Odd, I know, but it’s a constant problem for me.
Anyway, the sushi is great, and so is the Thai food. I appreciate any place that is flexible with the meat options. There’s so much for me to try. I’m still experimenting with the menu, but I really enjoyed the sesame noodles and the lo mein. Also, their crispy spring rolls are divine. They’ve got a crunch, and are always hot. Whatever dipping sauce they come with is glorious. I can inhale these things.

The Mon special roll was really good and super filling. The soft shell crab roll (spider roll) was a little bland in my opinion, but that might be because the Mon roll has SO MUCH flavor and sauce. Panang curry was good, spicy but good. And pad Thai was good! Service was attentive and very friendly.
Only complaint is the tapioca balls in the boba was undercooked. Very hard.

Mon’s never fails to exceed my expectations! Recently I went here with my family for my birthday dinner and it was absolutely delicious. We all shared family style: I got my usual pad Thai (spice level 3), my mom got pad wen sen (level 3 spicy), and both of my sisters got the same dishes as us but with no spice, and my little brother got their fried rice that came with fried butterflies. As a starter we got a few sushi rolls; we got the Dragon roll which had crab, avocado and cucumber topped with avocado and eel sauce (I loveeee eel sauce), and we also got the San Antonio roll which had crab, cucumber & avocado, topped with
tempura Flakes, white tuna, shrimp and avocado, served with spicy mayo sauce. The waiter was phenomenal, he was very attentive and made sure to everything was to our satisfaction. What made me like him even more was when he noticed my brother (who is very picky like any child) picking at his pad Thai and offered to switch it out for some fried rice (which he and i both loved). When we were finished eating the waiter kindly brought out complimentary coconut ice cream with a birthday candle. The ice cream was very refreshing, it had a very rich creamy flavor. It was also probably so yummy because they make it fresh there.

I visit here several times a week, as my firm is located just upstairs. The quality and freshness of the food has always been excellent. The staff is super friendly, and know me by name, which always makes you feel welcome. I love their Pad Gra Paw, Thai Butterflies, Tuna Bomb, Spicy Dragon Roll and Bubble Tea. The Chinese specialties are mediocre, but c’mon…it’s a Thai restaurant. I would definitely recommend.

Great little hidden gem of an atmosphere with tranquil outdoor seating and a nice interior. Sadly, the quality of our dishes was not up to par with our surroundings. My drunken noodle looked dry (and it was) and the spice level was inbelievably overwhelming. My counterpart’s sesame chicken was crispy and tasted fair although he complained of too much garlic.
We’re willing to come back despite this however and try their sushi, which looked appetizing from afar and was reasonably priced for lunch.

YUM!!! I can’t believe that I haven’t reviewed this restaurant yet. I’ve been coming to Mon Thai for the past eight years and it’s always delicious and the servers are always on point. My favorites are the Panang Curry, Thai Fried Rice, Pad See Ew and the Thai Butterflies appetizer. I’ve also had the sticky rice with mango and fried banana dessert — both are bomb. Just order them. I wish that I lived closer to this restaurant so that I could eat here more often. They have a great patio overlooking Broadway and the menu has Thai, Chinese and Sushi — a little something for everyone. I really like the atmosphere of the restaurant and they even have a back room that you can reserve for parties (I once attended a birthday dinner here with 20 people and it was awesome!). Tonight I grabbed a quick dinner with my boyfriend. He ordered combo Pad Thai and I had the pork dumplings and miso soup. Everything was very flavorful and our server was great. If you are looking for some good Asian food on Broadway, come here!

Love the food at Mon Thai’s, but the mid-​service is terrible… The server, herself, did fine, but there was one person, a young lady, who was busing tables, serving, answering the phone, and setting tables — in both inside and outside… It was terrible.
I could see the tension and stress on her face as she carried loads of dishes in and out to the folks eating outside.
And, with this kind of mis-​management, mistakes will happen… In our case, she didn’t put our order in for a long time.
It cracks me up how a business, so successful, is willing to take advantage of their employees… This young person was working herself to death… and was solo.
With that being said, there is too much competition in town with Thai restaurants for me to mess with this place.
Once again, the food was good, what we received, and they got 3 stars for the food only.
Thanks, Joe Gray

TUNA BOMB! TUNA BOMB! TUNA BOMB!
If you check in on your Unilocal app you get $ 5 off your bill if you spend $ 40. They have a sushi happy hour from 3−5pm. The service is always great and the food is amazing every time.
The TUNA BOMB is literally the best thing I’ve ever eaten in my life! MY ENTIRE LIFE! It taste like an Angel and a Demon are having a dance battle on your tongue. It’s bursting with fresh delightful flavors and at the same time spicy as hell. The fried Ice Cream is a great treat as well.
I can’t think of a better place for a date if you’re both sushi lovers. It’s a very intimate setting.
Seriously, everyone go order the TUNA BOMB! It will change your life!

First time visiting! Thank you Unilocal for the check-​in, $ 5 off when you spend $ 40 wasn’t hard to make this happen :) yummy food but a little on the costly side. Started with fried tofu, and it was awwwwesome! Made my tongue slap my brain! Hahaha Had the Soba noodles with chicken which was very tasty. And a hand rolled spicy salmon sushi roll. All of it hit the spot! Almost didn’t have room for the fried ice cream but was able to make it happen. This girl loves food :) The atmosphere was great, very relaxing, enjoyed the art décor, especially the 3D wall hanging of the man groping the woman’s boob. However, if I had small kids with me THAT might get some conversation going better suited at another time :-) All in all enjoyed myself and will probably come back again!
