Reviews describe Chez Anna as a warm, unpretentious homey spot with a strong Hungarian influence, where everything is made to order and portions are notably generous. Patrons highlight fresh ingredients, comforting soups, hearty stews, and standout dishes like schnitzel with spaetzle, goulash, and fish and chips, as well as sweet notes from apple strudel and crepes. A market setting inside a small grocery storefront adds a unique backdrop, with an open kitchen and a casual family run vibe that makes guests feel at home. Service is described as friendly and attentive by many, though a few note occasional slow timing. Many reviewers call it a hidden gem and a great value for Montreal, with generous portions that align with homemade flavors. Some comments mention the ambience with music and a diverse clientele, which enhances the welcoming neighbourhood feel. Overall the consensus is that Chez Anna offers authentic comforting home cooking with a distinct Central European twist and is worth a return visit.

Chez Anna pushes generous portions hard. Fish & chips come stacked: large fillets, light batter, & their battered fries hit the same crisp-satisfying note. The fish is fresh, which shows in both texture & flavor, & makes sense given the place doubles as a fish shop.

There is a strong Hungarian thread in the menu. Hearty stews, comforting sides, & seasoning profiles you don't often see in similar casual spots. That mix of a fish counter with Central European comfort food makes the place feel distinct.

Tucked away & easy to overlook, it fits the hidden gem label. Unpretentious, good value, & memorable for both portion size & the unexpected range of dishes.

Wow. Chez Anna's is the real deal. The food here is next-level, pure comfort, pure flavour, pure love. It honestly feels like walking into someone's home & being served the kind of Hungarian cooking that you can't find anywhere else in Montreal.

Every dish was bursting with flavor, rich, hearty, & made from scratch. You can taste the care in every bite. It's the kind of food that makes you slow down & just enjoy the moment.

On top of that, Anna makes you feel like family the second you walk in. Warm, welcoming, & genuine, it's the perfect mix with the unbelievable food.

If you want something authentic, home-cooked, & unforgettable, Chez Anna's on St. Lawrence is a must.

Plus Anna has to be the sweetest person around!

Absolutely amazing. I hear a lot from the media about Montreal having'2nd most restaurants per street after NY' or whatever. Before Chez Anna, they either fell into one of the two types: either trendy & overpriced, or generic & forgettable. I never encountered a hearty & homey restaurant until this. Clean & homey, amazing service. Great value/price. I would choose this over any other in Montreal, or even in Canada.

Update: 4 years later. Still good as before if not better.

Fantastic & authentic Hungarian home cooked food. As my dear friend, who grew up with his Hungarian mother's cooking, it reminds him of his earlier days eating at his mom's dinner table. Flavorful & hearty comfort food, feels like a warm hug on a plate. Loved it, & will definitely be back for more.
