Service cool, ambiance décontractée, approche personnalisée, mais surtout une chef très inspirée, Lily Sirikittikul, dont le talent et la créativité la classent désormais parmi les grands de sa profession. Lily aurait-elle réinventé la cuisine thaïlandaise végétarienne ?
ChuChai recueille des avis unanimes sur une cuisine thaï vegan exceptionnelle, riche en saveurs et en textures, avec des plats phares tels que le canard vegan croustillant, les currys rouge et vert, le Tom Yum, des dumplings et des nouilles, servis dans un cadre cosy et décontracté; la nourriture est décrite comme excellente et souvent surprenante pour les omnivores, avec une impression de viande apportée par des substituts comme le canard ou le poulet vegan; le service est majoritairement chaleureux, attentif et efficace, et les recommandations du personnel sont souvent appréciées, malgré quelques critiques sur une certaine lenteur lorsque le restaurant est bondé ou sur le fait que certains plats aient évolué, devenant parfois moins croustillants ou plus basés sur du seitan; le rapport qualité-prix est perçu différemment selon les tables, certains trouvant les prix raisonnables pour une expérience vegan de haut niveau, d'autres le jugeant un peu élevé, et beaucoup soulignent l'importance de réserver car l'endroit peut être très fréquenté; dans l'ensemble, ChuChai est présentée comme l'une des meilleures adresses vegan à Montréal et une halte à recommander pour les amateurs de cuisine thaï, que l'on soit végétalien, végétarien ou carnivore curieux.
Honestly one of my favourite vegan restaurants. I love everything on the menu, so tasty & delicious. I brought my meat lovers, & they LOVED everything we had, they said that it tasted very very good & they would go again.
I recommend this restaurant to anyone, meat lovers, vegetarian, vegans etc… you won't be disappointed.
Service was excellent too, the atmosphere is welcoming, a must try if you're in the area 🙌🏽

Absolutely love this place!! Will always come back when visiting Montreal. The vegan food is made to perfection, flavorful with many options to choose from. I would give it 6 stars if I could!
Ma fille m'a invité découvrir ce resto Thaï. Wao, Belle découverte! Nous avons commandé Salade de mangue, Dumplings sauce aux arachides, Panang Neua & le Canard vegan. Tout délicieux. Excellent service. J'ai hâte de retourne
One of the best & authentic Thai food in Montreal. Their red curry & green curry are too good! I was dreaming about it 2 days after I had the food. Their vegan chicken skewers are amazing with ting of lemon! I recommend the place every single time. It gets really crowded in the summer, so call to reserve.
Went on a Friday evening. Sat at the bar as I was by myself. The staff is very nice & friendly. Cereal gave me recommendations for places to visit in Montreal!
I had the Tom Yum & the Crispy Duck. The Tom Yum lacked depth in flavors but the crispy duck was too good! I had never had something like this in vegan food before
Definitely worth a visit if you are in Montreal

Un des meilleurs restaurants vegan de Montréal selon moi. Les plats sont excellents & originaux. C'est incroyable la créativité que le monde végétal rend possible; un voyage pour les papilles. Le service est irréprochable.
Yummy vegan thai food. The peking duck was really good so was the curry & the mushroom app.
The guy who looks like Slash was our waiter & he was super cool!
Amazing vegan Thai food for meat lovers! The faux beef & duck tasted like the real thing. Not to mention the curries & noodles which were made to culinary perfection. Would go back again & again.
The place was absolutely great. For a vegan place, there was a lot of food I thought were actually meat. We had the set menu & I'll definitely go back to try other combinations.
The staff was great & attentive.

Best restaurant I tried in MTL. I had several Thai & Vegan Thai food & this one is above most. each of the menu items look texture & flavour were on point. The beef fish & prawns are so creatively recreated in a plant based version.
Visited without a reservation & were informed that we could be seated in a table but had 1 hour to order & eat our food. It gets really packed & can feel a bit loud. Food was delicious, I'm not a vegetarian & really enjoyed the experience. I had a vegan beef in yellow curry that tasted like real beef. Would definitely visit again, but next time I'll make a reservation.
Première fois que j'essaie un restaurant vegane & j'ai été impressionné! La nourriture était savoureuse & le service excellent. J'y retournerai, c'est certain!
We didn't book a table so we got seated at the bar, we were very ok with that, but we could see a boiling kettle just in front of us, some dishrags standing there, & the decor was not really nice over there, you didn't feel like you were in a top rated vegan restaurant. The menus they gave us, both were in bad condition, deteriorated, & some prices were put on top of the oldest ones with stickers & pen, with not care regarding the color of the original menu, not giving a good impression. However, the food was great! We didn't have to wait. I ordered the Kari Neua & steamed rice, which were very tasty, & the portions were great. I couldn't order a dessert after that, but will come back soon to try one. Drinks were not great though, just "meh".
