Review Summary

Reviews paint Pichai as a bold and vibrant Thai dining experience in Montreal, with many dishes described as delicious, flavorful, and creatively prepared, and the Som Tum, tapioca dumplings, pork collar, seafood options, and Thai tea tiramisu singled out as standouts; the wine list is frequently praised and the atmosphere is lively, sometimes noisy, with a chic, cozy vibe. Several guests commend the friendly, knowledgeable service and the overall vibe, while others note moments of inconsistency, including rushed pacing, uneven service, or staff who seemed dismissive, which can affect the experience. Portion sizes are cited as variable, sometimes small for the price, while many diners feel the food justifies the cost due to quality and bold flavors. A number of reviewers consider it among the best Thai or Asian-inspired options in the city and express strong intent to return, despite occasional shortcomings such as delays or miscommunications. Overall the consensus skews positive, with food and atmosphere often praised as exceptional and the wine and cocktails adding to the enjoyment.

Food was so overpriced for its lack of flavour & tiny portions. Wouldn't recommend anyone to go here, but the service was great.

I tried Pichai for the first time with my friend yesterday & we had a great time as the service was great! My favourite dishes were the fried fish balls & the tapioca pork dumplings! The food is extremely flavourful, but keep in mind that its very garlicky & some of the dishes were a bit too salty for my taste. Bring mints if you're coming for date night!

It was our first time trying Pichai. The food was...incredible!!! The flavours were nothing like I'd ever experienced before. Everything tasted amazing. My Cocktail was so-so. There were only 2 cocktails available, & I wish there was more of a selection, but it didn't take away from my experience. We took a patio seating as the reservations fill up fast & that's all that was left for us, but holy cow it is a very tight squeeze & you almost feel like the other tables are in your personal space also. The heat lamps weren't working so when the sun went down there was nothing to keep you warm. We rushed through the end of our meal because it was cold. Our waiter was great but he was alone on the terrace so we didn't get to see him much. But he was fully available when he came to our table once or twice. I do wish he took more time to explain the menu though because if you've never eaten Thai food it's not an easy menu to understand. I'm sure there were other things I would have ordered instead. I would go back, but I would prefer to sit inside. It looked like there was more space. Again our experience did not take away from the presentation & flavours of the food.

One of the best meals I've ever had. Each dish was full of flavour, & so incredibly memorable. Wonderful service too. Can't recommend Pichai enough!

The « tasting menu » isn't on the menu but be sure to ask if they offer it that night! You will not regret it if you do, we were so full & for $65 /per person it was an incredible deal. Truly an amazing experience between all the balance of Thai flavours. The only place that I could say is better than my mom's 🤫

One of the best meals I've had ever! Service was quick & friendly, the dishes were the perfect size, & every bite was so fresh & flavourful. Do not miss this if you're in Montreal. This meal was such a delight!

Pichai, I love you. The food is always shockingly good & tasty. Flavours are balanced with even spice, sweet, sour & salt. Eating here with my friend is always an exercise of eating as quickly as we can like animals bc it's just so darn good. They've improved their Thai tea tiramisu & it's so much stronger now. Salivating as I write this.

Overrated, overhyped & overpriced. The food is okay, but lacks flavour, is pretentious & definitely not worth the wait. There are other smaller, cheaper & more authentic Thai places in Montreal.

This is more of a looks good on IG but doesn't taste good irl kind of place. Save your money & time & go one of the many friendlier family run businesses in the area for authentic Thai food. Disappointed.

Wow. Wizards of spice & flavour must inhabit the kitchen because every dish here is magic. Prepare for some heat though by ordering a good bottle of wine from their impressive list. Perfect meal & date night - the hype around this place is real.

The food was really disappointing especially for the price. I had the green curry special & it was so oily. The sauce had a decent flavour but nothing mind blowing. It was like the vegetables & meat couldn’t hold the flavour because the sauce was so oily it just slid off. & the beef was also very fatty & hard to chew. The prices were outrageous.The veg red curry took on a strange flavour the more it sat. The tamarind egg were so underwhelming basically just a soft boiled egg. The papaya salad was our favourite but you could find something comparable at probably any Thai restaurant. Our server was very kind & the ambience was great. Unfortunately the food was a let down.
