Review Summary

Happy Lamb Hot Pot is described as a spacious, clean restaurant on the second floor near the main intersection of Chinatown in Montreal, with large windows that keep the space bright and a calm, not too noisy atmosphere. The all-you-can-eat buffet offers a wide range of ingredients and a sauce bar, though some labels are mixed up and vegetarian options are fairly limited, with calls for more tofu, veggie dumplings, and meat-free broth bases. Food appears fresh and well stocked, with lamb and other meats praised and the tomato and hot sour broths offering different profiles, even if one broth was noted as underseasoned. Service is generally friendly and efficient, with several staff members highlighted for good, quick service, and prices described as reasonable, making it suitable for family meals, dates, or casual outings; lunch is typically cheaper and birthday freebies are mentioned. A few negatives appear, including a hygiene concern from one reviewer who reported food poisoning, a challenging entrance with stairs, and occasional crowding or a cafeteria-like vibe.

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
