Overall ChuChai is regarded as one of the best vegan or vegan friendly Thai options in Montreal, offering a dependable, flavorful dining experience for groups and for diners who are not vegan.
I absolutely loved this restaurant. From the friendly staff to the cozy atmosphere, it was all amazing. I would highly recommend. I went with a friend who is non vegan & she also loved & enjoyed the food. Everything was well prepared, vegetables used in the dishes were fresh, & the food was hot & tasty!
Fantastic desserts as well.
J'ai vécu une expérience absolument formidable. La fraîcheur des aliments & les saveurs étaient au rendez-vous. Service très agréable & attentionné. Superbe présentation des plats. Je n'ai que du positif à dire & je recommande fortement!
Délicieux restaurant vegan qui m'a été fortement recommandé - je ne suis pas végane. Le menu est vaste, je voulais tout essayer. Les plats sont sublimes. Ils sont décorés de façon minutieuse & le gout est extra. Je recommande absolument & j'y retournerai certainement.
Une très belle découverte. On a eu un excellent service par notre serveur David qui, malgré l'achalandage, a pris le temps nécessaire pour bien nous expliquer le menu & nous recommander quelques options en fonction de nos goûts. Au niveau de la nourriture, tout était bon. Toutefois, bien que j'ai adoré la texture des aliments, j'ai trouvé quelques plats un peu trop sucrés.

Une super découverte vraiment je recommande les dumpling arachide & le canard !!
Testez leur cocktail qui sont vraiment bons
Un personnel vraiment agréable avec une jolie décoration.
Si je devez faire une remarque c'est sûrement pour le boeuf, la sauce peut être vite trop sucré malgré le riz, peut être rajouter des brocolis en plus des poivrons ou quelques chose de neutre pour balancer le sucré.
Vraiment merci pour ce nouveau favori
Excellent restaurant végétalien. Tous les plats & entrées que nous avons pris étaient délicieux & frais. Le service était rapide, sympathique & courtois. Je recommande fortement.
Food is top notch! I've been going to ChuChai for years & am never disappointed. I would highly recommend. The menu is superb & they have some really great cocktails to compliment.

It's my second time going to ChuChai & the food is always really good & with beautiful presentations. Our waiter was very nice, informative, attentive & helpful. I highly recommend this restaurant.
This was my first visit & we enjoyed our dinner thoroughly. All of the dishes were excellent & service was attentive. I would recommend this restaurant & look forward to dining there again.
Since becoming vegetarian, one of the foods I've missed the most is THAI -- There is fish sauce in everything. ChuChai has been the perfect solution to this problem. I (& my omnivore friends) don't even notice the difference. I've been back 3 times in the last month & can see myself going there regularly for my fix of peanut sauce!
Staff is very friendly & service is quick. My only complaint is that the drink list didn't have ingredients listed, but if you ask the wait-staff they will happily recite what every drink on the menu contains.
