Les avis sur Pichai évoquent globalement une expérience thaïe contemporaine, inventive et conviviale, axée sur le partage et les saveurs intenses; les plats, souvent décrits comme savoureux et équilibrés, font l'unanimité sur plusieurs tables, avec des coups de cœur pour des éléments comme le collier de porc grillé, les scampis et les dumplings au tapioca, et des desserts comme le tiramisu au thé thaï; l'ambiance et le service sont salués pour leur chaleur et leur connaissance du menu, mais certains trouvent le service parfois pressé ou distant, la salle bruyante et les tables un peu serrées; les portions sont parfois jugées petites pour le prix et certains commentaires évoquent des plats trop salés ou très épicés selon les goûts; malgré ces bémols, l'ensemble est généralement perçu comme l'une des meilleures expériences thaïes à Montréal et donne envie de revenir pour découvrir la carte et les accords mets-vins.
Went here during my weeklong stay in Montreal for my honeymoon. Of all the places we went to, we were most disappointed by Pichai. We asked our waiter to order us whatever was good; to kind of "build a tasting menu" off of things already on the menu. Unfortunately, it's hard to tell if the waiter had totally wrong taste for us, or if the food quality just isn't great across the board, but we were really underwhelmed by what was presented. The first couple of dishes that came out were all'cold' dishes, like a cold chicken & a mango salad. It's hard to critique food sometimes, but across the board, the flavors were just... not hitting right. Nothing tasted great or even good to us - except the dessert. The shredded ice with peaches was amazing. I know we came right at opening, so perhaps the kitchen wasn't in the swing of it yet. We both love Thai food & were so excited about this place, but it ended up being the sore thumb of the trip. Now when we reminisce about the honeymoon we always remind each other, "do you remember how sad we were about Pichai?". In a way, it was an experience we won't forget. There are many great reviews, we wish we were one of them! :(
Love this place, the food, the people, the atmosphere. Even the wine list, which skews a bit natural for my tastes, always has something I really enjoy. If they have the massaman curry on special don't miss it! Great stuff.
Repas sublime! Les saveurs étaient identiques à mes souvenirs de mes voyages en Thaïlande! Les pétoncles en « ceviche » étaient un délice! L'espadon a manqué un peu de cuisson mais était très bon ! Nous serons de retour assurément!
Restaurant qui m'a fait revivre mes expériences culinaires de mon voyage en Thaïlande! Les plats typiques revisités avec une twist locale, j'adore! Beaucoup de saveurs & de fraîcheur, excellent!
Amazing food, knowledgeable & enthusiastic staff. Fish balls were best, reordered repeats. Whole fish (arctic char) was amazing. All food is quite spicy, though they tone it down for you by request. Very nice decor & sound system. Very reasonable bill. Will definitely return!

The service & food were great everything came out fast & was phenomenal. Very vibrant menu with a little something for everyone. All around fun vibe & atmosphere everyone from the hosts, the bartenders, our waitress & of course Jack were super welcoming. Will be coming back for sure!!
Atmosphère super cool, nourriture délicieuse, staff incroyablement gentils & professionnels, Jack a été super accueillant & généreux, ce restaurant offre une expérience mémorable. Merci bcp!
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.
Not your standard Thai affair. A bit pricey for what it is, but good atmosphere & unique dishes. It specializes in shareable dishes. Great for a small group, but music & table size makes it unwieldy for any group bigger than 4. Kind of a mix between a bar & dim sum / tapas
Très bons plats ! Mon seul commentaire négatif est le temps limité pour profiter de la soirée. Malgré la réservation faite à l'avance, il n'est pas possible de rester plus de 2 heures. On se sent pressés de finir nos assiettes. Je trouve cette pratique extrêmement dommage & décevante. Il me semble fondamental d'avoir des espaces conviviaux où prendre le temps d'être avec les autres autour d'un repas est possible, surtout dans un contexte d'accélération globale.
My visit to Pichai Restaurant was decent. The food, offering a variety of flavors, was good, especially if you're into that kind of cuisine & enjoy sharing dishes. The decor was interesting, adding a unique but not overwhelming touch to the place. The ambiance was comfortable, but it's worth noting that the restaurant can get quite busy, so reserving a table is a good idea. The staff were friendly & provided satisfactory service. Overall, Pichai Restaurant offers a decent dining experience. It's worth a visit if you're interested in the specific type of food they serve & like a communal dining style.
Casual setting with great food! We ordered the Chicken dish, Vegan Papaya Salad, Fried Eggs with Tamarind, Vegan Panang & Lamb. We enjoyed all the dishes & ordered the Thai Tiramisu as a dessert. Didn't know a Thai version of Tiramisu existed- Glad we ordered because it was perfect amount of sweet & texture for us! We ordered the one cocktail (with Tequila) they were serving & a mocktail version of it- Was okay. Their service is good & so quick. Loved the hospitality!
Really great taste! & the service was perfect! Tiramisu was my favorite dessert ever! The fried banana was also great rich taste. We will MUST try all desserts!
Best Thai food I've had since being in southeast Asia. Got 3 menu items (the pork neck, chicken legs, & Som Tham) & for 2 people that was a lot. Came with sticky rice. Extensive wine list, but only 2 cocktails (which is cool, they're a wine bar). Food was absolutely crazy for how much you pay per person. Worth making the trip from wherever you are in Montreal.
