Epicerie Pumpui est perçue comme une adresse thaï authentique et chaleureuse, où les plats vedettes tels que le pad thaï et les currys sont riches et équilibrés, et où des desserts comme le riz gluant à la mangue et le riz gluant aux poires caramélisées font l’unanimité, avec des portions généreuses et un riz gluant parfumé, le tout servi dans une ambiance intime et décontractée, idéale pour un déjeuner rapide ou un dîner détendu; le service est souvent décrit comme rapide, attentif et sympathique, même lorsque le restaurant est plein. Cependant l’espace est restreint et la fréquentation peut entraîner des attentes et du bruit, certains plats pouvant être plus salés, huileux ou petits pour le prix, et quelques avis remettent en question l’authenticité par rapport à d’autres adresses montréalaises. Malgré ces nuances, l’ensemble des retours souligne une expérience gustative largement positive avec des saveurs thaï évidentes, des portions généreuses et des options épicées accessibles via des condiments sur table, offrant une atmosphère conviviale qui pousse les clients à revenir.
J'ai pris plusieurs plats sur la carte. Ce n'est pas mauvais.... mais je n'y retournerai pas. Les galettes de citrouille étaient brûlées, que le centre était décent. Le pad Thai au tofu était très fade & sec, pas de sauce & un pain de nouilles. Le cury vert au poisson goûtait davantage le lait de coco & manquait de parfum & d'épices. Le mélange de légumes verts était correct. Le riz bien cuit.
La salade de choux goûtait que le panais & ça baignait dans une vinaigrette simili crémeuse.
Reste le riz collant à la mangue, mais j'ai aucune attente à ce point.
I don't understand why there is non spicy of each plate, the plate that i ordered (Pad Kaprao) was super delicious for me, but there is no child on earth could eat that because of 🌶?🔥, even my wife couldn't even taste it.
However, my wife ordered Tofu Pad Thai, as it was the only (non spicy) available on the menu, overall it was ok, but too oily, they could've use less oil to fry it.
I would go again there, but I hope one day they put into consideration that many people in this globe cannot eat spicy, & make non spicy version of each plate they have on the menu.
I've given this place a few tries since a lot of my friends love it, but each time it gets more expensive & somehow the food gets less flavourful. It's the oiliest, blandest Thai food I have ever eaten in my life, completely white washed, & maybe just getting away with it because they can? I really don't recommend. Save your money & time waiting in line.
Best pad Thai i ever had in my life just that simple the cilantro what a touch just wow. Everything else is amazing the citrouille appetizer + pear rice but pad Thai really the sta
Love love love food at Pumpui! I used to eat here ALL the time on weekends after pole classes when I was a grad student & it was one of my FAVORITE things to do with friends. I visited after three years & love to see that Pumpui is the same if not better & more popular lol. We got the spicy pork curry of the day, pad krapow & the salad with the creamy coconut dressing. All fantastic. No notes. Just delicious. Got the pear sticky rice for dessert. Also fantastic. LOVE the thai tea sauce on this. Also love the fact that they do a more seasonal pear sticky rice when mangoes are not as seasonal. My only complaint is that they're TOO POPULAR omg. If I don't get to pumpui soon after it opens, it's a guaranteed wait. Which is SO valid because the food is so good. The service people are nice tho & very diligent with seating. They have a small space & they do their best to have customers seated & flowing. They're also very communicative about wait times. I love Pumpui so much & wish them so well (so that I can always eat here when I visit Montreal!! 😁)
Great little Thai restaurant! The fritters were amazing! (ended up ordering another serving). Fast friendly service. Beautiful & delicious food. Large portions
Very cute & relaxed place, it's giving diner vibes. Now for the food, we got the yellow curry (my favourite) & the red curry. I did not like the red curry at all!! It was way too oily & the eggplants were 90% seeds. It was also way too spicy so you couldn't taste anything else. Would not order again. The yellow curry with the fish balls was really good but I do think they are better Thai places in Montreal. Good if you're looking for quick & easy meal.
Best pad thai i've had. The food was flavorful. The chicken wings were finger licking good. & to finish on a good note, a mango sticky rice. The mango was ripened to perfection. What can you ask for more?

I honestly don't understand the hype around this place besides that it's trendy. I have been twice now. The service overall was terrible. One server in particular was blatantly rude & very condescending to myself & other diners around as well. The food is just ok & very over priced for such stingy portioning. I have had much better authentic Thai food elsewhere. They don't remove the veins of the shrimp, & you barely get any shrimp in the pad thai goong. The fish ball yellow curry was tasty but also small & underwhelming & clearly used frozen fish balls.
The flavors were great, & I truly wanted to love it, but something was just wrong with my noodles. Either somebody soak the rice noodles in hot water, or there were far too few bean sprouts in the Pad Thai, ultimately making it a sticky plate of stodgy noodles.
The peach doesn't really stand out with the sticky rice. Mango is still the best. Please don't do this again ☹? as it ruins the moment of the mango sticky rice. The pad thai with shrimp is good but not that great. One order is good for 2 people. Overall, 3 out of 5. Food is nice but I don't think I should go back again.
Pumpui is a gem! The chicken wings were unreal, the shrimp pad thai was easily one of the best I've ever had, & the pork belly on rice (Pad Pak Boong) was just out of this world. We grabbed takeout but ended up eating right in front & honestly, the little mom-&-pop shop atmosphere made it even better. You can really feel the energy of the place. Even their rosé wine was spot on. 100% a 5-star spot in Montreal!
