Pamika

The décor was beautiful, and the atmosphere had a great vibe. My favorite dish was the Phra Ta Pow—flavorful and perfectly spicy. The Tilapia also is a much try. Crispy and tender. The Tom Yum, however, arrived a little cold, so I’ll be sure to ask for it warmed up next time. Other than that, everything was excellent. The service was outstanding, and the staff were all so welcoming. A special thanks to Ioan for the wonderful service!

Very cute place, decor is elegant and refined. The service was excellent. The waiter was attentive and helpful with menu suggestions. The drinks were creative and colourful with an organic feel to them. The food was not bad but the dish I ordered, chicken pad that was under seasoned and very basic. The presentation was very nice for the other dishes and I was told they were very good. I would still recommend Pamika if you want a nice intimate setting and great drinks.

Unfortunantly it didnt quite scratch the itch we were hoping for but also wasnt too bad overall. In general I think they need two more servers to keep up with demand. The servers seemed busy but it took a while for every step of the way so I think they could use a bit more help. The other thing that was a bit unfortunant was the amount of fruit flies that were around. One or two isnt an issue but we were having to swipe away one pretty consistantly. That being said, the food itself was pretty decent overall. Ill go over the so-so stuff first. We were trying to get the vegiterian papaya salad but apparently there is fish sauce in it that cant be removed so I am not sure why they label it as vegiterian optional. (Thats a bit of a pet peeve of mine since people probably dont even ask if it is labeled as vegiterian). The phad thai was decent with strechy noodles and fried tofu which is something we look for but the peanuts were all clumpped together as if they had been stored for a while. Not nessasarily a bad thing but califlour was also one of the vegtables which is an interesting choice. On the good end, the bak egg roles were crisp and had good flavores especially when adding the sauce. They gave us the chicken one on accident at first but figured out their mistake before we had any. The drink was also very refreshing. The egg wash was smooth and sweet which complimented the tart and fruity drink. The atmosphere itself was interesting. The long marbel X shaped table that centered the room was something I hadnt seen anywhere else. It seemed a bit akward at first but the lights and bar made it work more. The lamps seemed like a nice touch that added depth and a warm lighting to the room. I always like when lights are hung together at a different hights to give that depth. Overall probably not one I would go back to.

Loved this place! The food and drinks were fresh, flavorful, and perfectly spiced. The staff were super friendly and attentive. Definitely our new go-to Thai spot in Montreal!

Really cool place with a really cool vibe. The bar is very nice and the ambience is calm and dark, i love it. The cocktails were amazing (the pineapple one was the best by far) and the food was even better. Staff is really experienced and know everything about the menu. 10/10

I was really excited to try this restaurant after hearing great things, but unfortunately, it was a big letdown. The food lacked flavor and had a runny, unappetizing texture. Even worse, the chicken was undercooked, which is a serious safety concern. The outdoor dining area was dirty and poorly maintained, which made the experience even more unpleasant. To top it off, the staff never checked on us during the meal. Overall, it was a very disappointing visit, and I won’t be returning.

My friend and I dined at Pamika Thai for dinner and 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 and 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 and 20 minutes before our entrées finally came out. The entrées themselves were disappointing. The seafood curry had just 2 prawns and 4 mussels for two people, and the wagyu fried rice was so tough that we were chewing for minutes. For the wait and the hype, it simply wasn’t worth it. The environment and atmosphere were great, but overall the food quality and service didn’t live up to expectations. I came in with high hopes, but sadly left underwhelmed.

Food and service were great. The presentation of the dishes was aesthetic, portions are on the smaller side. I think there are a few Thai places better than this place however.

Absolutely amazing food and service. We were there in Montreal for 2 nights and had some delicious food. Fresh and tasty unlike food here in Boston. Pamika Thai was absolutely fantastic. Spicy pad thai , chicken Basil dish and other cpl items we had were really good. The ambience is also nice. I have to say with 5 stars though the pricing is quite high for qty you get. Other than that good place for once in a while otherwise cannot go regularly there with the price to qtt ratio

While staying in a local hotel a guest recommended we come to this Thai restaurant for good food. We checked out the menu and it looked great, so we went. The host was great, very helpful and friendly, especially since we didn't have reservations and this place was booked solid. So, we sat at the bar, which was fine. The bartender was very helpful and the menu is pretty appetizing. We tried several items and all were excellent! The 3 and 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 and tender!! Save room for dessert, as the coconut ice cream was really good and the rice flour pudding was incredible! Highly recommend stopping in, especially if you like spicy food!

It was ok.... Service was great however the food was not up to par. Pad see eww was salty and the portion size for the curry was tiny! The fried pork appetizer was dry it didn't have much flavor and one of my drinks was watered down. The interior is nice and the vibe but the food is sooo 6/10 you can def find better Thai food around. Will not recommend for the price point.

I mostly liked everything I tried at this lovely restaurant. The green curry was very light and delicious, one of the better curries I've had. The BKK rolls (first item in the menu) were texturally superb but rather bland. We commented on them (our server asked while clearing) and a concerned manager came to the table to discuss it with us, so service is top notch. My husband had the pork fried rice kra pao, which I also tried. It was tasty and spicy, and maybe a bit of too much of one thing for an entree, so better to share. I ordered a glass of white wine and was presented with a couple of choices to sample table side, which is a very nice touch. The restaurant interior is beautiful, and the banquet very comfortable.

-wagyu skewers (3 tiny pieces of meat) arrived completely cold -we waited over 50 minutes for this -waiters not checking up, asking if we want drinks etc. we are not sure where they are -kind of want to cancel the rest of our order and leave

Not authentic at all. On a vacation here and looking for Thai food; food here does live up to the high review. Beef panang curry is average but is already the best among what we tried. Tom kha kai - never seen such a dish with cabbage in it; can't taste any of the lemon grass, galangal, kefir, etc. Tom Yum pad that - haven't eaten such bad pad Thai in so long. Nothing of it tastes like pad Thai, not to mention any Tom yum flavor to it. As to the service, we made a last minute reservation, and was told we have a little over an hour, which is fine and usual, but the whole time when we were there, we felt rushed by the front desk person,while it was the food itself that was taking forever to come.

We found this restaurant online, and it turned out to be one of the best Thai places I've ever been. The welcoming drink which was enticing and a great palate cleanser before your meal. The shrimp and spring rolls were probably among the best appetizers. In particular, the wrapping on the shrimp with noodle was particularly unique and tasty. Soup was great. For the main dishes, we had a special Wagyu fried rice, which was amazing! The ginger chicken was also excellent Their portions were generous and hospitality was very welcoming Specialty Mocktail drinks were also great Would definitely come again

An amazing Thai spot. From the appetizers to the deserts everything at Pamika Thai is wonderful. We were staying just a few blocks up so it was a must go for us. In terms of gluten free options, there weren't too many. But the ones that were gluten free were absolutely delicious. Our server was tremendous and the food was plated beautifully. The outdoor seating wasn't too noisy and we loved the views of Montreal. I highly recommend if you're in the area and in the mood for some Thai! (8-10)

I've been to many Thai restaurants--Pamika Thai isn't anywhere near the top. I would say, it is more for the decor and presentation that sell here rather than the authenticity of the food. Was quite disappointed!

food was really quite incredible. the pork was really crispy and had a great spice profile. it wasn't overcooked at all and still had the tender fats which I liked. The egg and rice perfectly paired with the pork and helped balance some of those spices. Thai iced tea was incredible. had a great deep tea flavour and wasn't overly sweet. service was incredibly kind and helpful and we ate on the patio so having the outdoor exposure created the ambience my group was looking for.

I was in town for vacation and was looking for Thai food. Found this restaurant on google and decided to give it a try. Have to make reservation since the restaurant is not too spacious. They do have outdoor patio in front and back of the restaurant but the inside of the restaurant decor is much better than outdoor. At first I was skeptical about the food since we were the only Asian in the restaurant. Wonder if the food was not authentic, but it turned out to be good. Some of the item I didn't like but it was bad. Service was also nice. Price range is a bit pricey but not too bad.

Amazing ambiance and food. The service was excellent and I felt very well taken care of. You will not regret visiting Pamika Thai!

Great spot for Thai food in Montreal! The service was lovely, the food was delicious, and the atmosphere was warm. The spicy salmon tartare was amazing, and pairing it with a curry (my partner had the chicken) or a noodle dish (I had the pad thaï vegetable option) made the meal more than filling! I would recommend calling ahead to make a reservation!

we went to this spot as it was my friend's favorite restaurant in montreal and i def understood why. firstly, the food was AMAZING. everything was delicious and flavorful. i have never enjoyed thai food as much as i did here. additionally, the staff were incredibly sweet and accommodating. the space was also beautiful and modern. it does seem to be a very popular spot, so i suggest making reservations a day in advance. we tried to make dinner reservations the same day, and they only had times after 10 PM. it is located on a busy street in montreal, so there's lots to do in that area as well. if you are ever in montreal, pamika is a MUST when you're there. i have already told my friends to go there!

Very authentic Thai food. Taste delicious and very Thaï. The service was great, a nice atmosphere to hangout with friends.

The ambiance was so nice in Pamika, it wasn't too noisy or too quiet. The lights were a bit dim, but didn't bother the eyes too much while reading the menu or eating. The settings and decor in the restaurant were so beautiful and the layout of the restaurant felt very cozy, while giving customers privacy. The service was great, our server (his name completely slipped my mind) explained the dishes really well considering our dietary needs, and he was very enjoyable to chat with as we were visiting MTL on vacation. He recommended great food and drinks to us from the menu, and also introduced new activities we could try while in MTL. We ordered a Thai Tea (not pictured), a Papaya Salad, a Drunken Noodle, and a Pineapple Fried Rice. Everything was DELICIOUS! The Thai Tea was a perfect blend of creamy sweet and bitter tea, the Papaya Salad was refreshing and slightly spicy, which gave it a good kick, the Drunken Noodles were a hefty portion (but be warned that it is the spiciest dish in house), and the Pineapple Fried Rice was sweet and tangy. This is definitely my must-go place in MTL, and you can bet I'll be back when I visit again!

Quel excellent restaurant Thai au goût authentique. Vraiment rafraîchissant comme resto. J'ai prit comme entrėe le brochette Satay au poulet qui sont exceptionnel. Comme repas j'ai choisi le poulet cachou, un plat ce qualité coloré et assez santé. J'ai aussi goûter à un plat à base de champignon très original. Le concept est de partager les plats si ça vous tente excellent service sur la petite terasse avant. Je crois qu'il vont en ouvrir un autre à l'arrière

Loved the cool chic vibe at this restaurant! We tried the fried calamari, shrimp pad Thai, crabmeat fried rice and massaman curry with chicken. Flavors were good but portions were on the smaller side. Bangkok delight made with dark rum, mango purée and pineapple juice was yummy and it came in a pineapple. They also offer a refill for less. The server was very nice but couldn't speak English well.

Service at the bar with Alex was superb and he makes a mean cocktail. I had scotch on a big rock but he gave us a sample of a mango purée that tasted like vacation! We ordered papaya salad, fried shrimp on sugar cane, salmon tartare, and the bavette which was grilled to perfection with an umami chili sauce so good I wanted to drink it. Every dish was delicious. Sad we are full. May come back tomorrow to try more at this beautifully designed restaurant.

Someone who has been in the hospitality industry for 12 years, I was more than understanding of the possibilities of bad service. However, I was extremely disappointed that I could not find a single reason to justify the service...it was awful. Saturday night, I expect good service or strong servers but sometimes that doesn't happen and that's okay, but this is your money making day...make it count. Our server did not have any menu knowledge we had to point to the menu to order, did not listen to our needs/wants or questions. one of us ordered a very spicy item and he told us it's hot and we knew and confirmed that we were okay with that...food came out with 0% spice while my level 1 panang curry had more spice than his, while his was ordered at a level 4 spice. he disappeared in the night never saw him again in the entire restaurant for the remainder of the night. it took 45 minutes plus to pay the tab and we were there past closing so not even in the middle of the rush. we asked 2x for the tab to close out while all servers just cleaning. Food was good, our order was wrong for one of them but at that point we ignored it. Rant over, service was not good for price point.

Great food. It is upscale but the flavors are there. Khao Soi is among the very best. Loved it.

Great food and service, authentic Thai cuisine. Some of the best pad Thai I have ever had.

Thai bistro setting. Friendly efficient service. Delicious food with fresh and wholesome ingredients. The best quality ingredients with Innovative Thai recipes.

Incredible find in Montreal!! It's been around for years....I have no idea why isn't not more well known!! The food is INCREDIBLE; honestly, I would have just kept shoving food in my mouth if my stomach wasn't going to explode. Perfect blend of sweet and spicy and savory....it's so hard to find a restaurant that is worth it nowadays. And the ambience/decor was BEAUTIFUL. Can't recommend highly enough.

Awesome food, beautiful set up & even better service from Lou the bartender. 10/10 would recommend!

Lovely decor and customer service. However, the food is bland for a true Thai food fan. We were disappointed by not being able to customise the dishes to be spicy. We were told the flavors come as they are, & that spices & condiments are on the side. While we are used to having 3-4 different sauces & spices, only 2 were served. The speed of service was also a bit slow but that maybe because the restaurant was busy.

Absolutely stunning ambience. We wanted a last minute restaurant for dinner and Pamika ticked all the boxes! The flavors are out of this world. Definitely hidden gem in Montreal!

All the classic Thai dishes were overtly sweet with no other flavours, barely taste lemongrass. The green curry was too thin and pale to Thai standards. The only dishes we enjoyed was the papaya salad and calamari, which are quite hard to mess up. Extremely expensive for what it is, seems like the Thai owner adapted the flavours to Western standards.

The restaurant is beautiful, the service is impeccable, and the food is delicious. I HIGHLY recommended the ginger chicken and the pineapple fried rice. 10/10 recommend!

Great contemporary Thai food! The ingredients and flavours were great. The drink menu was also unique and delicious.

Authentic food. Impeccable service with a laid back stylish ambiance. Everything for a perfect night
