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.

Definitely recommend!

Whether vegan or not, If ChuChai was your go-to Thai place & you haven’t visited in a while, you’re in for a surprise. NO, the soy-product pseudo pork, beef, duck, shrimp, haven’t been replaced by the real thing (shhh, calm down) – it’s still a veg resto specializing in Chi-Thai meals that look, & to some extant, taste like meat/seafood. NO, aside from the addition of the En Masse mural outdoors, the décor hasn’t been dramatically transformed. But those are good guesses, thanks for playing. The surprise is that the separation between “ChuChai fine cuisine” (to the left, to the left) & “Chuch bistro,” has meant some menu/price/clientele changes.

Bonjour,

Malheureusement je suis très déçu de mon expérience. 1ére & dernière fois à ce restaurant. Un service des plus longs que je n'ai jamais vu de ma vie : 1h30 pour le plat + 1h30 pour le dessert.
Les portions sont pour des petits enfants. Nous avons payé 50$ pour 2 personnes & avions encore faim à la fin.
Il fallait payer par argent cash sinon retirer au guichet avec des frais.

Salutations.
