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

Loved our dinner at Chu Chai! The wait staff was great & I really enjoyed the food. We were 6 diners & it was perfect.

I think the Curry bowls were probably the best bet. I had the Pad Thai & it was good but could have used some veg as I used to get in non vegan ones before I was vegan (green onions & carrots).
