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.
The chicken wings were so crispy & delicious, & come sitting in a killer sweet chili sauce. Very good pad Thai, flavourful & packed with crunchy peanuts. & we absolutely loved trying the different lime+chili fish sauces sitting on the table. The pear sticky rice did not hit the spot we were looking for with the mango one, mainly due to the star anise/cardamom/cinammon spice blend that the fruit was poached in. Seating was a bit cramped if you are assigned to the window seats, especially with our winter coats on our laps. Whoever sits by the curtains to the left of the entrance is sure to get elbowed a couple of times by patrons walking in.
Excellent pad thai au tofu, portion parfaite & service sympathique pour emporter je n ai jamais été déçu depuis leur ouverture. Si vous aimez la nourriture goûteuse c est à essayer & oui ils sont bien occupé!
Honestly some of the best Thai food I've had in Montreal. The atmosphere is super cute & intimate. The food is absolutely banging as it is packed with flavours & they give you a very generous portion. Great service too. I recommend the yellow curry it was delicious!!
Went here with great expectations from reviews & unfortunately was a let down. First this place is kid friendly as they don't have high chair or boosters seats & don't have a teaspoons either for kids. Second, we wanted to sit for our comfort. as we have a 3 year old, on the big table for four & was told that we would have to move if there's a big group. We decided to sit on the small table as who honestly wants to move while we are trying to enjoy our meal? Also there was already a group of 3 one of the 3 tables while there was 2 other tables with 3 spots. Not sure why they would tell us that they would have to move us instead of them as I'm sure they were'warned' also. Other than that, service was great. Now I really wanted to like the food however I've eated in many Thai restaurants & I don't know how this place has a high review as our main 2 meals were salty which was the Pad Thai Tofu Shrimp & the Stir Fry Pork. The Stir Fry Pork was suppose to be spicy & there was hardly any hint of spice. I asked the waiter just to check if they made it not spicy because I have a kid & he said no & also said that it's suppose to be spicy. Chicken wings was okay & the only thing I enjoyed is the pumpkin fritter. All in all I was very disappointed on the food & what they said about moving us to the small table which was very tight btw for 2 main meals & 2 appetizers. This is honestly the first restaurant that ever told me that they would tell us to move if there was a group of 4 or more. I honestly should have left after they said that but really wanted to try their cuisine which was also a let down.

Je ne saurais dire quel était le nom du plat que j'ai pris puisque c'était en thaïlandais, mais il s'agissait d'un porc caramélisé servi avec riz & coriandre fraîche. Le plat était succulent! Aromatique & goûteux! C'était tellement bon! Ils y a des condiments qui sont à notre disposition (sauces, épices & piments forts). Je recommande d'en mettre pour donner du kick & de la chaleur! Repas = franc succès!
Le seul point négatif à mon avis sont les prix [élevés] & les portions [adéquates, mais pas généreuses]. On est très loin de faire dans le street food en terme de prix, malheureusement.
En outre, pour une expérience gustative exotique & délicieuse, ça vaut la peine de se faire plaisir. J'y retourne pour essayer leurs autres plats, c'est sûr!
Walk in experience.
We waited 20 min for spot, they actually sat others before us despite being first.
Guess what Who cares life is too short to make a deal out of it.
We did get complimentary cabbage salad for the wait :)
We also tried Pad Thai , chicken wings & peach sticky rice dessert.
Everything was spot on amazing with my leaning towards the wings.
Will be back sooner rather than later.
Staff & service is on point
