Amigo Restaurant comes through in these reviews as a dependable, budget-friendly Chinese spot with large portions and solid flavors that keep regulars returning for years. Diners repeatedly highlight the salt and pepper pork chops as a standout, along with generous plates, quick service, and a warm, family atmosphere. Many mention familiar favorites, fresh and authentic tastes, and a vibe that feels like a local staple rather than a tourist trap. While the atmosphere is described as cozy and unpretentious, some notes of inconsistency appear, such as a misstep with General Tao on one visit or changes in portions over time. Takeout experiences mention a tipping policy and a non-English section at times, and a few comments note that alcohol is not offered. Overall, Amigo Restaurant is seen as a beloved Chinatown staple where value, big portions, and friendly service drive the appeal, with occasional variation in dishes.
Good food, fair price, big portions, efficient, fast & attentive service. Feels like a family owned restaurant. Might not be fancy but it doesn't feel like a tourist trap. Overall I'd recommend & will be coming back.
They are decently priced & their portions are huge! Loved their salt & pepper calamari & sesame beef. The service was good. It's a bit difficult to find the place if you aren't looking for it, I almost missed it but it's definitely a hidden gem! Close to the subway too. Will be coming back!
Great value for money, portions are huge & prices are unbeatable. We've ordered takeout here many times in the last couple of months & they never disappoint. The staffs are very friendly & attentive.
Took peanut butter dumplings, its cheap, doesnt taste anything, really spicy. Shanghai noodles ; taste absolutely nothing, not even salty, chicken is sloppy. 2 stars for good prices

A hidden gem with the most cheap price you can find in 2024. It's about 10-14$, you won't find that anywhere anymore. &, it's so good. If you compare the mayo chicken shrimp with some other spot, it's different but good in its own way.
Hidden Gem. It's lowkey, but great food & super affordable prices! I come here quite often, & I LOVE their signature salt & pepper pork chops ! It's casual atmosphere. Once we were a group of 7 & I paid less than 100$ for the shared meals & we were quite full at the end of the supper. That's crazy! 10/10 ✨️
Great old school Chinese restaurant. All the employees also speak Cantonese. Prices are very fair for the portion & the service is friendly. Food is good & not too salty.

I love Amigo. You MUST ALWAYS order the salt & pepper pork chops! Everything else I've had there was also very good. I could eat there every day. Great prices, too.
A super example of what a Montreal Style Chinese restaurant should be. Great service, cool atmosphere & the lemon chicken was amazing! & very reasonably priced too! I'll be back with Amigos!
