I ordered a Pad thai with chicken. It cost $24 before tax & tips for lunch time. It's pricy.
The taste was normal. The souce was sweet. It didn't have peanuts.

Took the table d'hote. The appetizer plate was amazing. The pad thai was too sweet for my liking. Was disappointed that no dessert comes with the table d'hote just tea at the end. Restaurant's decoration is very nice.
Good Thai place in Montreal. Cury was tasty & Pad Kimao with beef very good. The beef was grilled & tender. Nice restaurant as well for the atmosphere. Husband & I enjoyed it !
We were four people & we ordered some entrees & four dishes, we shared all of them. Everything was Delicious, one of the best Pad Thai Shrimp that I have ever had. Excellent Service & very Friendly. Also a plus, the restaurant has great ambiance. Definitely going to be my go to for Thai Food
I am delighted to give a 5/5 review for Pick Thai restaurant. I went with a few nursing co-workers for my last day & I really enjoyed the meal. I had the mango salad & Pad Kimao (Beef) & it was delicious!!! Consequently, I had major allergic reaction to something & Kevin the owner went above & beyond to help me after the event to figure out what I reacted to. I would like to thank Kevin soo much for his patience & honesty! :) Turns out I am allergic to mangoes. I am deeply saddened as I LOVE mangoes but at least now I know & I can still enjoy other delicious meals on their menu 💗💗💗
Pick Thai is located in a somewhat obscur office condo building on de Maisonneuve adjacent to the Vendome metro station & across the street from the MUHC hospital...but don't let these digs fool you. Pick Thai has an excellent offering of Thai food that should get more attention than it does. Once you enter the restaurant, it likes a time warp to a completely different locale compared to the outside. Beautiful dark wood accents the entire place complimented by wonderful golden decorations & even some offerings to the buddha. The ambiance completely sets the tone for the meal. The menu is extensive (see all the photos) offering all those classic Thai dishes you know & love. For our dinner I selected the Table'D'hote offering which is of exceptionally value. The meal starts with a Tom Yam soup along with a selection of their most popular appetizers (mango salad, golden pouch, golden triangle & Niem Thod), then a choice of your main [I chose the Oak Kai Yang grilled chicken (which was excellent)] & ending with a coffee or tea. In addition, we had the Shrimp Pad Thai noodle dish (also excellent) & ended with a Banana Fritter dessert (that dish can never fail). Overall service was very good with friendly & helpful staff. In the mood for Thai, then you can't go wrong if you pick Pick Thai. Enjoy!
La nourriture était excellente. J'ai commandé un plat typique thailandais, le pad thai. C'etait vraiment tres savoureux. Mon amie a commande une salade au boeuf qu'elle a beaucoup apprécié également. Les serveurs étaient vraiment très amicales. Le seul point negatif c'est que nous somme arrivées vers 19h30 & nous sommes parties a 22h car nous attendions que le serveur viennent nous apportez la facture & celui ci ne semblaient pas vouloir que l'on parte.
We had the most delicious meal at Pick Thai. What a treat to have a brand new, gorgeous Thai restaurant in the Decarie/Vendome area.
You'll have to watch out because the location may not be where you expect it - you have to walk up a short set of stairs in what looks a bit like a condo. But once you get inside, you will notice that the decor is beautiful - rich, dark wood paneling, floor to ceiling mirrors, & impressive accents from around the world.
The food was a hit as well. Everything was so fresh, hot, & delicious, with the perfect mix of sweet, sour & a touch of spice.
We had a fantastic appetizer of Nuea Thod Katiem (Bite sized beef chunks mixed with garlic & Thai herbs & deep fried)on salad - which was crispy & delicious. & not just any beef was used - they used Filet mignon. Next we shared Yam Mamuang - mango salad with lime, & peppers. Again - a real hit.
For mains, we shared the classic Pad Thai with chicken, which really was the perfect mix of sweet & sour topped with fresh, crunchy bean sprouts, & Green Curry with shrimp which had the delicious sweetness of coconut milk punctuated with a hit of spice. I think there might have been a touch of melon in there which was very creative.
As I said, everything was piping hot & so fresh. When you are used to "fast food" Thai, there is nothing that beats made-to-order, authentic homemade Thai.
