We loved our first experience here at this all-vegan restaurant! The food was fantastic! Delicious & nicely presented. & we appreciated the recommendations from the staff! The dumplings in peanut sauce are a must have! We also had the Tom Kai soup with tofu, spicy tofu with eggplant & basil & the crispy'duck'! So delicious!

Good food & friendly service.
We tried the server's recommendations; crispy duck & dumplings with peanut sauce. While they were not exceptional, we enjoyed them.

Went on a Friday evening. Sat at the bar as I was by myself. The staff is very nice & friendly. Cereal gave me recommendations for places to visit in Montreal!
I had the Tom Yum & the Crispy Duck. The Tom Yum lacked depth in flavors but the crispy duck was too good! I had never had something like this in vegan food before
Definitely worth a visit if you are in Montreal

Very lively restaurant (not very quiet or private) , service was top notch & friendly. I had the peanut butter dumplings & the fried spring rolls - both were delicious & hot, but I had the tofu with peanut sauce, crispy spinach & sticky rice was sub par. The tofu was soggy & flimsy, not enough peanut sauce & crispy spinach was tasteless. For the price per meal, I was definitely not impressed.

Je suis venue plusieurs fois manger à chaque fois le même plat : Ped Palo - Crispy vegan duck. Incroyablement délicieux ! L'imitation du canard est très réussie !

We got the Thai Princess drink, dumplings in peanut sauce (Kiao satay), the vegan chicken skewers (Gai Satay), the vegan beef in 3 flavor sauce (Neua Sam Rod), the eggplant & vegan shrimp (koung pad makere). I would recommend the Gai Satay & the Neua Sam Rod, it was really flavorful & the vegan beef had a nice crispy texture. I'm personally not a fan of the shrimp texture, which was probably made with konjac jelly. I've been here before & tried the crispy vegan duck & would highly recommend it as well. The ambience is really cozy & chic. The staff is really friendly & explained all the dishes we were curious about. I would visit again!

Delicious food & great service! To start, we had the het waan krob (breaded crispy mushrooms, which were sooooo good), & the kari puff (which, admittedly, I would have liked with a sauce). For our main course, we had the royal pad thai & the kang daeng ped, which were both so rich & succulent! They nailed the vegan shrimp taste & texture. I couldn't really tell the difference between the tofu & vegan chicken, but it was still tasty. The staff were really friendly & quick, & the whole place was clean & classy.

10/10 across the board! We got the Kiao Satay (dumplings in peanut sauce), Waan Krob (crispy seaweed), Poe Pia Tod (Fried Imperial Rolls), Ped Palo (Crispy duck), & Neua Sam Rod (crispy beef). The peanut sauce was so delicious we could've drank it. The crispy seaweed was perfection. The crispy duck is something I thought I would never find but they have absolutely gotten it right, I'd say better than the real thing. & the beef was the favorite of the table, even better as leftovers the next day. The service was wonderful, & bonus points for mocktail options on their drinks. We're only visiting for a week but will surely be back at ChuChai!

My favorite vegan restaurant in Montreal. The food is amazing & the staff is very friendly. Every dish I had so far was excellent. A special mention to the crispy vegan duck (ped palo) that is a real delight.

Our group had an awesome dining experience at ChuChai. The staff was super friendly & attentive. We highly recommend Ped Palo (Highly recommend the crispy vegan duck) & Mangue & riz collant. This place hits all of the vibes - the decor, food & drinks. We will definitely come back again! Looking forward to trying other dishes.

Delicious & creative food, efficient service, clean & pleasant place. We loved every dish we had - crispy duck, appetizer, chicken with ginger & tapioca pudding. My only regret is that we didn't discover this place 15 years earlier:) Thank you
