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.
Totally worthy of the hype! The flavors were unique & surprising, mouth watering deliciousness. Fun to share small plates, but oh so satisfying. My favorite eas thr tapioca dumplings, the beef tartare & the noodles. Would reccomend, snd I'll be back again soon.
Visited Pichai with a friend & I really wanted to like it, but got sick. I explained that I was celiac, which they seemed to understand & walked me through the menu. A fair amount of gluten-free options & most was dairy-free. However, they accidentally gave me the wrong salad. So, I confirmed salad was gluten free, but later came back to tell me it contained gluten after I started eating it. The main dish was also forgotten, so we had to wait a long time. Got a free cocktail for the salad issue & the other dishes were tasty, but not worth getting sick of course.

The food tasted like the one I had in Thailand, terrific. We had the beef tartare, the curry of the day & the papaya salad. Incredible 😱 I will return for sure.
Cozy & cute ambiance. The service was great & food was also pretty good. I think my expectations might have been a little high cause I heard great things & LOVE Thai. Favourite was the Tuna! Not a huge fan of the chicken & dumpling balls were interesting / original, which I liked. No Padthai & a few traditional foods you'd expect to see on the menu just FYI
#25 of Canada top 100, & the only Thai fashion cuisine.
It is a great date night destination, the dim lighting, the music, the bar, it increases your appetite & chance.
But the dim lighting makes it difficult to see the menu & the food lol
For cilantro haters, in French speaking cities, they go by coriander!
I asked them to try removed cilantro from the dishes (I was probably asking too much since I was at a Thai restaurant) & they didn't remove any! Or maybe they did, but it was still mountain portion of cilantro in every dish.
That said, great place

This place should have a much higher star review!!! I thought it was one of the best meals I've had this year. Very tasty food & great atmosphere & wine selection.

I love this restaurant!! Easily one of my favorites in the city. The food was delicious & the staff is friendly. I enjoy the cozy vibe of the restaurant. Everything we had was tasty & the standouts we had were the scallops & steak with curry.
Feels like I'm in New York but New York in Montreal in some kind of cinematic dream state. It's loud & happy & precise here. Food that cures you. Don't expect vigil silence or suits & ties although you can wear those & feel cute. Love the staff.

Straight forward Thai flavours , authentic with fresh & brilliant takes. Haters are always going to try to add their grain of salt that doesn't weight much but the real ones know. I will assert myself as a connaisseur because I've spent decades studying / consuming Thai food. Oh & let's not forget the 5 star service. Bravo!! 👏⭐?🏆
Aside from being the best thai food in Montreal I can honestly say that this restaurant has the best ambiance, food, service & of course wine list in the city.
The servers are dedicated & hard working, the tunes are always bangin but not too loud & the food is easily comparable to some of the best restaurants in Thailand!
I went in not even sure what the menu had in store. I didn't do my homework. I didn't come prepared. But sometimes in life, it's when we least expect something that we are truly delighted. That was the case at Pichai.
As a group of 6, we were recommended to order about 12-13 dishes. We got away with about 10 & everyone was full by the end. The flavors from the pork collar, scallops, pork belly & dumplings were surprising yet complementary. Dazzling pops of lime, cilantro & choy to round out the salty & the spicy meats.
But the masterpiece, the coup de gras, the show-stopping number of the evening was the Egg... this was a capital'E' Egg - soft boiled & fried, dressed to the nines in a stunning savory sauce, cilantro & hot peppers. Massive kudos to the genius chefs that devised this Egg. This was the only dish we ordered twice because it was so amazing. I will be coming back for this Egg.
The servers were beyond fantastic... detailed & swift. They explained the adventurous menu well & made great suggestions.
The ambiance was also great. We did shamelessly whip out our phones to Shazam some songs playing over the PA.
If you feel like eating thrilling food with unique, delicate details, Pichai is the place.
