Amigo Restaurant is widely praised for authentic tasting Chinese dishes, generous portions, and very good value, with quick, friendly service and a welcoming, homey vibe. Reviewers highlight the salt and pepper pork chops as a standout specialty, along with plentiful plates that are great for sharing, and dishes that feel both traditional and comforting. The atmosphere is described as casual and unpretentious, making it a reliable hometown favorite in central Montreal, though a few notes mention a confusing menu, occasional billing issues, or an inconsistent takeout experience. Overall, it comes across as a dependable, family-run spot where quality and affordability meet to deliver satisfying meals.
I ordered a take out from this place. Although the food tasted absolutely great as the other reviews suggest they have a weird tipping system where even for take-out there is a mandatory minimum 15% tip which I don't get as there was no service provided yet I couldn't customize the tip. However it was not a big deal compared to the taste of the food. Absolutely loved the chicken stir fry with veggies.
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.
Tastes not bad, lady at restaurant seems nice but bill is not clear. They charge something we didn't order & add tip by themselves even though service is not excellent. Need to double check bill.
Superbe expérience en famille dans le quartier asiatique, plateau tournant pour partager 3 entrées & 10 plats. Très bon & très copieux pour nous 10. Heureusement qu'il propose des dudibag. Arrivé sans réservation & pris rapidement en charge. Serviable bon rapport qualité prix... Seul bémol pas d'alcool proposé
Somewhat authentic Chinese food. #29 Boeuf avec légumes Chinois/ Beef Filet with Chinese
Vegetables is good. Beef is tender. Vegetables are fresh. However, the other dish we ordered is slightly undercooked.

Très bonnes portions pour leur spécialité de côtelettes de porc sel & poivre - croustillantes & bien assaisonnées. Les prix sont aussi très raisonnables. Une bonne adresse pour un repas simple & savoureux.
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!

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.
Their food are trully irresistible & delicious.
I will definitely come back again.
Try one of their best seller: salt & pepper pork chops.
The dining area is not fancy but the number of customers dining are true evidence of their delicious food they serve.
