Chez Chine

Located in the Holiday Inn Montreal Downtown

Opens Today at 7 am

(12)

Chinatown, Downtown

Chinese Asian Breakfast

Review Summary

Overall, reviews describe Chez Chine as high quality and professional, with a menu that blends Chinese characteristic dishes with delicacies from Hong Kong and Macao, and an impressive fish fillet cooked in wine that helps create an enjoyable dining experience. The staff are described as very nice and the food as delicious, with the ambiance enhanced by viewing fish in the water as children watch them. Appreciation for child friendly service is noted. The decor is beautiful and the value for money is excellent, with vegetables cooked to perfection and a courteous, attentive server contributing to strong service. Positive notes tend to reference dinner rather than breakfast, which is described as mediocre and overpriced, with cold and aloof service, undercooked potatoes, watery coffee, and dry flavorless French toast. Some reviews feel the restaurant is undervalued, and the overall flavor profile and fish emphasis stand out.View restaurant profile
