A really good restaurant with exquisite food, well seasoned & fresh. The service is also warm & welcomed & the waiter gives a lot of information on each dish.
Highly recommended to stop there to try their fusion food but also the cocktails! My favorite one are the dumplings & the burger!

Walked in to a clean & very asthetic restaurant, it wasn't the busiest but although there were a handful of tables , the service was top tier the whole entire time.

I got a Pisco sour to drink - tasted amazing, almost as if we were in peru!
I started with the Yuca Frita - im usually skeptical because I find it can be dry, but this was the lightest yuca ive ever eaten! 10/10!
Then I got the anticuchos, although it wasnt heart specifically it was so good, the softness of the meat with the amazing flavours , even the perfectly cooked fries on the side. 10/10
Lastly, I got the Ceviche a La Chino, it was so fresh, i think there may be too many of the other toppings though. But there was salmon which isnt usually common in ceviche, that was really flavourful! Also the nice big chunks of octopus .. would definitely get it again! 8.5/10

Our experience at El Chino was fantastic. The food, a mix of Latin & Asian fusion, was fresh, innovative, & most importantly, delicious. The tasting menu is very reasonably priced & we left full & satisfied! Ideally, go with 4 people so you can try just about everything on the tasting menu. Most importantly, the service was exceptional. You can tell Roberto Nacho loves what he does & it made the whole experience even more wonderful. Very cute & cozy ambiance, great music, & you can definitely chat with the people at your table without having to yell.

The tasting menu was absolutely AMAZING, the sea food was super fresh & not at all rubbery, the music was a vibe & our server, Angela I believe, was extremely kind & welcoming. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS RESTAURANT. It's an absolute 10/10 on everything.

We love Peruvian food & tried it only in Peru & Central American countries. This was the first time we had it in Canada. & let me tell you, this was AMAZING! From the moment we've been seated the service was great (thank you Robert!). We had a tasting menu with fish. Flavors were so fresh & took us back to the warm south days! Ceviche, yucca, sauces!!!!! -everything was 5 stars. There was enough food for 2.
The place itself is nicely decorated & clean. The atmosphere is very welcoming.
We will definitely be back.

We were invited to celebrate a friend's birthday this Sunday at a little treasure tucked away on Jean-Talon Street in Montreal-& what an incredible find it was!
From the moment we walked in, the warm decor & cozy ambiance set the tone for a truly special evening. The owners, especially Angela, welcomed us with genuine care & attention, making the experience feel personal & heartfelt. Angela went above & beyond to explain the menu, ensuring every detail was perfect. Her hospitality was unmatched-we felt truly spoiled!
The food was absolutely delicious-fresh, flavorful, & beautifully presented. Each dish had a unique taste that made it stand out. & the cake? Wow. One of Angela's partners makes them on demand, & the one we were served was a masterpiece-exquisite in both presentation & taste.
As the night went on, this romantic little spot transformed into a lively private event, hosting a boxing match that brought an unexpected burst of energy & excitement. The vibe was contagious, & everyone was swept up in the fun.
This place is a rare gem, & we're already planning our next visit. Thank you to Angela & the entire team for making the night so memorable. A solid 5-star experience!
