I came here specifically for the salt & pepper pork chops as I read so many reviews about how this place has the best salt & pepper pork chops in Montréal. So it was a must try for me. I live in Québec City & can't find any authentic made meals from different cultures. I ordered the lunch special of the pork chops & the pork chops did not disappoint, although I wish they were a little less breaded. The lunch special comes with a dumpling soup which was delicious. The broth was so good & the dumpling good too. Overall, delicious meal. I even asked for extra onions & peppers on the side & they gave me a small container of them to go with my meal. I love the small, quaint & home style feel of this restaurant in Chinatown. I shared a table with a lovely couple since I was one person. Love meeting new people. Staff was friendly & very accommodating. Food comes quick, hardly any wait for anything. I will definitely return.
Best salt & pepper fried pork chops. Biggest portions size for the price in Chinatown. Got some courtesy upon sittin, it was nice although scalding hot. Ordered the pork chops. They come with rice, a fried egg & bok choy. Everything was delicious. I always leave satisfied when I go to this restaurant. The service was nice & the atmosphere was cozy.
Felt like having quick Cantonese dinner, found this gem in Chinatown, after checking out the menu, we order young chow fried rice, the portion was good however the taste wasn't flavorful enough. Not salty enough & missing eggs & wok fire tasting (wok hay). Besides that only one waiter running the show, he was efficient & quick. Over all we ordered their two must order dishes, salt & pepper fried pork chops & chicken n shrimp with mayo sauce. Both dish was pretty decent, the portion to the pork chop was huge! Consumer Price index was over the chart! They must had 13 to 14 pieces of pork chops for under 14 cad. That is really good value! Besides that we ordered garlic stir fried buk choy, & bitter melon with black bean beef which was off the menu. Over all was great dinner with plenty of left over pork chops. I think we had like 7 pieces left. Will be back to this place when we are ever back to Montreal again.
When we order Chinese food from Montreal Chinatown, we usually go to the same locations. This time we wanted to try something different.. it was slightly difficult to find the restaurant as we didn't realize that it was located on the second level. Once we got up the stairs, we had a look at the menu & ordered the dishes that we wanted. The food was prepared quite quickly.. everything was ok
Picture this, you're walking the night streets of Montreal Chinatown wondering what's still open. You come across this door with a staircase that leads upstairs & an Aquarium. You decide, "why not?", lets give this place a try. You walk up & are greeted by the waiter. You ask him why the place is called "Amigo", & he replies "well aren't we friends". & he's right, the moment you walk in, that's how you feel, like friends. Looking at the menu, there's a bunch of hidden little gems to cure your cravings. After having visited my Amigo a few times, I can tell you right now that the two things you guys should try is the Hot Sale (porkchop), & the Chicken Mayo. That stuff is absolutely bussin fr. best spot in chinatown hands town, i won't even let someone debate me on this. if you think i'm wrong you're delusional af thanks!!!!
