Pamika Thai

1st time there & left disappointed. Me & my friend took one of their wyagu dishes (which was also one of the most expensive) & there was 0 taste. It was just a few slices a beef on white rice. Not sauce, no spice, no taste. We also mention it to our server but nothing was done.

Having travelled in Thailand, I am always weary of local restos claiming to have authentic Thai cuisine, but I must say I was pleasantly surprised by the respresentation of regional thai dishes at Pamika. Each dish was masterfully prepared with a variety of typical (& even not so typical) thai flavors. Spice level was well considered. Portions are not huge, but just enough to share amongst two people & be satisfied. My favorite was their scallop dish as well as their mango sticky rice dessert. I have found my new favorite Thai resto in Montreal!

My friend & I dined at Pamika Thai for dinner & decided to go with the Chef's Choice, meaning we'd eat whatever was placed in front of us. At first, things went really well - the appetizers were tasty & the salads were amazing.

Unfortunately, once the restaurant got busy, we felt a bit ignored. The server barely came by, even though we were trying to get their attention. Our first appetizer arrived at 7:00, but we waited about 1 hour & 20 minutes before our entrées finally came out.

The entrées themselves were disappointing. The seafood curry had just 2 prawns & 4 mussels for two people, & the wagyu fried rice was so tough that we were chewing for minutes. For the wait & the hype, it simply wasn't worth it.

The environment & atmosphere were great, but overall the food quality & service didn't live up to expectations. I came in with high hopes, but sadly left underwhelmed.

Incredible experience - the director Benjamin took the time to answer questions & give great recommendations. The food was top notch. We tried a few different dishes & they were all great. The beef curry, chicken cashew, pad thai, chicken satay, pad kra pao were super enjoyable. Also the mango sticky rice is an absolute must - it was the highlight of the meal.

While staying in a local hotel a guest recommended we come to this Thai restaurant for good food. We checked out the menu & it looked great, so we went. The host was great, very helpful & friendly, especially since we didn't have reservations & this place was booked solid. So, we sat at the bar, which was fine. The bartender was very helpful & the menu is pretty appetizing.
We tried several items & all were excellent! The 3 & 4 chili pepper indicators are spot on too! We sweated eating some of the food, for sure! Definitely get the Crying Tiger, the beef in it was outstanding! Nice & tender!! Save room for dessert, as the coconut ice cream was really good & the rice flour pudding was incredible!

Highly recommend stopping in, especially if you like spicy food!

It was my first time visiting the restaurant in Montreal & it didn't quite meet expectations. The meal started strong with the fried shrimp & chicken skewers which were both delicious. For entrees I had the chicken pad see ew which was quite disappointing since they used normal rice noodle as opposed to wide thai noodle, some of the vegetables were undercooked, & they used a lot of soya sauce. I also had the braised beef panaeng...the curry sauce was delicious but the brisket was very dry & overcooked. Don't think I will return to the restaurant next time, considering there are many other authentic thai restaurants for half the price. But, if you're looking for a quick dinner/drink with great service & atmosphere then this would be a safe place to go.

One of my favorite restaurent in Montréal! The best things are the salmon tartare & the beef paneng with sticky rice. You can't go wrong with those two! I usually not eat spicy 🌶️ but it is so amazingly good I can't stop myself. If you're real hungry I also recommend the pad thai. The satay wagyu is not recommended. It was very small & forgettable. For the same price you have the salmon tartare which is exceptional. We wanted beer but it was not available that evening. We ordered margaritas thai I think & it was really good! A must if you are in town you won't regret it

I had a fantastic time here! I would have loved to sample more things off the menu but I came alone, so I just stuck with the green curry (which was great with the sticky rice). The staff were attentive & I had a great time sitting st the bar!

We came here on a busy weekend night & the vibes were immaculate. Great location & very clean restaurant & kitchen, we enjoyed our time here so much. We sat at the bar & Egan made our time unforgettable because he provided some of the best service we have ever received. After only a week of working there, he made everything look so easy. He was so busy sitting tables, taking orders, & carefully taking time to talk to us while explaining the menu & what makes all the dishes so magical there, all while effortlessly crafting drinks for the entire restaurant. Pictured are the Massaman curry & crab fried rice, both of which are delicious, but not pictured is the Taro pudding we had the honor of enjoying. Easily one of the best desserts I've ever had. Thank you again Egan for making our time in Montreal so unforgettable!

The service is good, the restaurant is nicely decorated but the food is very mid. We ordered the tasting menu at $75 (got overcharged by a couple of dollars at the end when we checked our receipt but I digress) & were disappointed with the selection. The minced duck with cabbage leaf was underwhelming, as were the fried shrimp & fried pork on sugar canes. The grilled pork slices with sticky rice & papaya salad were bland & nothing extraordinary. The braised paneang beef & fried shrimp & fried papaya salad were enjoyable. I probably should have chosen à la carte instead of tasting menu but if this is what they are offering clients to explore & discover Thai cuisine, it is disappointing. Furthermore, we had leftovers that we got packaged up. We saw the waitress leave it on the waiters counter & walk away, only for another waiter to pile other dirty plates on top of our remaining food. The waitress came back, saw what happened & we witnessed a little back & forth exchange before they took off the top plates & willingly decided to place our now contaminated food in takeaway containers anyway. We were too appalled to say anything so we paid & left.

Après être passés plusieurs fois devant Pamika, nous avons décidé de tenter ce restaurant thaï. & quelle belle surprise ! Nous avons pris le menu « Chef, faites-moi voyager » en 6 services avec dessert à 75 dollars. Alors oui, ce n'est pas forcément un tarif accessible, mais quel voyage ! Chaque plat était meilleur que le précédent, nous avons découvert plein de goûts & de préparations différentes. C'était copieux & tellement bon ! Ça commence avec des petites brochettes de crevette & des brochettes de boeuf. C'est suivi d'une salade de papaye frite & de crevettes. Ensuite, un plat très épicé mais tout aussi excellent de canard. Pour suivre, un curry rouge thaï au boeuf, avec une sauce curry coco à tomber par terre. & enfin, en dernier plat, un Set Tum thaï, avec une épaule de porc BBQ exquise ! Nous avons aussi pris des cocktails, il y en a pour tous les goûts & le Manaw Drop est vraiment extra ! Pour conclure, nous avons eu droit à un Mango sticky Rice. Vraiment très bon lui aussi. Le service était exceptionnel, la serveuse nous a guidés avant & tout au long du repas. Il y a possibilité de modifier les plats du menu si on ne supporte pas trop le piment. Je recommande Pamika pour partir en voyage le temps d'un repas.

5 ans que je suis revenu de Thaïlande & 5 ans que je cherche un mango sticky rice de qualité & ça y ait ! Enfin j'ai trouvé la saint grall ! Tout est au top, rien à redire ! & si vous avez la chance d'avoir Lillian au bar c'est que le repas n'en sera que meilleur. Merci Pamika pour ce petit bout de Thaïlande au coeur de Montréal ♡

Recommended from friends so it was a must try; we came with expectations & the crew here Brought it. The Maître d' took care of us personally & he was awesome. Hubby; curry w/Chicken & sticky rice was better than reg rice Me - Braised Beef Panaeng - 16 hour slow cooked beef... need we say more... so soft it melted in your mouth. Would have also been even better with sticky rice. Shared a Bangkok delight, this would have been amazing on a hot day, parched & in need of all the sugar. A little thick for the moment for us. A bit much for a spring day. It was delish but just not what we needed at the moment. Will def return & a must for us in Montreal 🫡 my respects Pamika! Need reservations, best to reserve in advance a day or so. The vibe was awesome & super chill. Also be aware there are NO changes to the menu so I would review in advance to make sure you can eat what is offered. I forgot to take a pic of the food... just know we killed it & NOTHING was left.

Love this restaurant, the food is delicious, the interior decor looks very cool & has good vibes! Really recommend their Tom Yum soup! Update: went again today, & the food was significantly worst than before. The Tom yum soup was tiny, the mango sticky rice was really hard & unflavoured, & the fried rice was also not very good. They also moved location & the new spot is missing the vibe.

Beautiful design & warm atmosphere with effective service. The food is a bit bland for Thai cuisine, but highly instagrammable, which I guess is the main selling point for the place. The crispy shrimp & the seafood salad could not elicit any flavour, but the pork lemongrass was ok. We ordered the Pad Krad Prao with fried rice, but we ended up with white rice instead, which made the dish less interesting than expected. Value for money was good & portions were generous. So we left a bit disappointed but we can understand how this restaurant can appeal to a younger crowd or to tourists.

Me & my partner had the pleasure to be served by the director of the restaurant. We ordered 1 drink each & the tasting menu(called something else). The starting bites were delicious, the duck entree was a miss for the both of us, barely rescued by us asking for the dipping sauce of the first course. The red curry beef was incredibly good with a rich & creamy sauce, spiced just right Then there was a shrimp with fried & crispy strings of some starch that were absolutely lovely. To continue, we had grilled beef cooked in a lovely marinade with a papaya salad & sticky rice. Finally the dessert was rather plain macarons with a pretty image. I had a pint of beer, & my partner who had 2.5 ounces of wine paid 1 dollar less than me. It felt too little. Overall we enjoyed our experience; the service was stellar although the food came a little too fast, the atmosphere was welcoming & beautiful. It's a little expensive for what it is, but if you can afford it you'll enjoy it

Love the atmosphere. I sat at the bar & service was impeccable. The bartender was very professional, knowledgeable & kind, & made amazing spicy margaritas. Food was also delicious. I ordered the crab rolls which I found tiny but tasted very good. The beef paneng is delish & tender. For dessert, longan sticky rice was surprisingly yummy. Mmmmmm. Highly recommend this place.

Impeccable service. Chicken fried rice was excellent. Spicy beef with rice & fried egg on top was ok. Egg was overcooked.

What a great evening at Pamika. I hadn't been there in several years but I am pleased that both the food & service were as excellent as I remember. The staff was welcoming & attentive without being pushy or rushing us. Wasn't too crowded & appropriate distance was kept. The food was amazing, particularly the pad Thai & pineapple fried rice. Would highly recommend & look forward to dining at the new location!
