The menu is varied and creative, and many meals are described as well balanced and deeply flavorful, with soups and curries highlighted as standouts. Prices are generally viewed as reasonable, though some dishes feel a bit pricey to certain diners. Reservations are often advised during peak hours due to popularity. 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.
Exceptional food quality & service! We tried the vegan shrimp appetizer, peanut dumplings, tofu fries, vegan duck curry & tapioca pudding - all were fabulous! Waiters/waitresses were super professional, kind & considerate & very swift. Best place for vegetarians in Montreal!
This is always our first choice for dinner when we are in Montreal (& we are not vegetarians). The "fake meat" is too delicious to be called "fake", & the flavors in every dish I've ever had are extraordinary.
Absolutely delicious. Great quality, fresh & authentic food. Great for vegans & omni's because it is so delicious you don't need to be vegan to enjoy this.
Wonderful service as well.

The food was amazing, & the service was 10/10! The restaurant was packed, which is something I love to see with vegan restaurants, & the service was probably the best I have ever had. I ordered a dish that had vegan duck, something I've wanted to try for years now, & I was not let down, the food was absolutely incredible. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in Montreal.
Une belle découverte ! J'ai VRAIMENT apprécié que les versions mocktails des cocktails soient moins chers. Je trouve que c'est une belle attention. Tout était délicieux, autant les drinks que la nourriture. Les flammes qui indiquent le niveau d'épicé sont, selon moi, très justes. De partager des thaïpas est une façon vraiment agréable de découvrir le menu. Je vais assurément revenir ! Merci pour un souper mémorable !
