Review Summary

Reviews consistently praise ChuChai for a fully vegan Thai menu that delivers authentic flavors and textures, with crowd favorites such as the vegan crispy duck, Tom Yum, green and red curries, Panang, and dumplings with peanut sauce that satisfy both vegans and meat lovers. The atmosphere is described as cozy and minimal, and the staff are repeatedly described as friendly and attentive, though a few comments note slower service during busy times or moments when refills are missed. 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.

In general, decent food but the papaya salad was the worst I've ever had. Iceberg lettuce

I almost dont want to leave a review out of fear of it being even harder to get a reservation lol Brought omnivores & they loved it so much that they proclaimed we can come back anytime.
The food is inventive & tasty, the ambiance is warm, the waiters are attentive to the point that you never need to ask for a thing but not in your face. I love this place.
Prices are very good for quality you get. Would love to see some mocktails on the menu.

Il faisait tres froid dans le restaurant & quand nous l'avons mentionner ils ont dit que l'air climatisé c'était enclenché sans qu'il ne puisse rien faire. Sinon comme toujours nourriture excellente!

Portions trop petite pour le prix, mais la qualité au niveau gustatif est parfaite. Je recommande le cocktail MK2!

Musique un peu trop forte pour un mercredi soir tranquille. Malheureusement, il fait horriblement froid dans le restaurant & c'est vraiment désagréable. J'y vais depuis des années, premiere fois que j'ai autant froid durant un repas. Il y avait meme des petits chauffages d'appoint un peu partout!
