Review Summary

Chez Chili is widely regarded as a standout destination in Montreal for authentic, flavorful, and generous portions of Sichuan and Hunan cuisine. Many diners praise the restaurant for its consistently delicious dishes, particularly highlights like the General Tao chicken, salt and pepper shrimp, and fresh vegetable stir fries. While the atmosphere is lively and bustling, which can sometimes result in a loud environment, the efficient and friendly service frequently contributes to a positive dining experience. Despite occasional notes regarding salt levels or wait times during peak hours, the majority of visitors consider this basement gem a must-visit spot that offers exceptional value and an inviting, homey feel.

Great service & quick to get our food out. General Tao chicken was good & crispy but heavily breaded. Broc & beef was delicious as were spring rolls. Dumplings & chicken fried rice were ok.

It is simply delicious. I went with my family to eat. We had a table immediatly since it was a monday. We ordered Pineapple chicken stir-fry, dumplings & fried rice with veggies. Everything was good. I just wished there would be more juice in the dumplings. The chicken was crispy & the flavor was rich. Every ingredients of the pineapple chicken worked harmouniously. Perfecty, I would say. I really hate when the dishes taste like different ingredients mixed together. It's the same for the other dishes. We got served the chicken in few minutes after ordering. Honestly, I don't even know how they managed to make fresh & delicious pineapple chicken like that in just a few minutes. Maybe we arrived little bit after the chicken was made. I don't know. It's a mystery. I really liked the ambiance. I also liked the fact that people were'nt loud there. There is truly no flattery in my words. It is is truly good there. I wish I could taste more. I'll surely come back.

Editing my comment to resposnd to owner:
First read my comment carefully. I didnt say that you gave a free drink for 5 star review.

Before talking about other's behavior, make sure you have those good behavior & good service.

Opionion on your food's quality doesn't bother you. This is the clear sign of quality of your restaurant. Paying a lot to enjoy the food & ambience, but i had very bad experience in both.

This is my review. WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE, OILY FOODS.

-------Original comment:
Service: not welcoming
** Don't trust reviews from google, most of them are for a free drink **

Fried chicken- call it as fried flour, i need to search chicken in that flour. Too oily & not even 10% chicken.

Stir fried chicken noodles : i ordered stir fried chicken noodles, but they served a plate of oily noodles. & hardly 2-3 pieces of chicken.

Please be aware. Don't take risk.

& the most funny part is, tips starts from 18% for their rude service🫣

Overall great Chinese food - some of the best I have ever had.
We ordered a few plates to share - General Tao's Chicken, Beef & Brocolli, Spicy Chicken, Vegetable Noodles, & Vegetable Fried Rice.
The only issue was that the spicy chicken was not at all spicy. It had chili peppers served with the dish, but the chicken itself was not spicy.

Had dinner her last night 12.13.25 while visiting from Florida. It's a small place, upstairs, located in the Chinatown area of Montreal & the food was very good. We had the beef fried rice & the general Tao's chicken. It was just us two, but the generous portions were plenty for 4. If we're in Montreal again, we'd love to try other dishes here.

I'm not sure why people love this place. The chicken was very average, the rice was dry & tasteless. Not going back. & it is quite pricy compared to other great chinese places in Montreal.

We tried the tripe, the ginger chicken & the dumplings. They were all great. The ice cream mochi & the caramelized bananas were also good.
The staff was helpful & attentive.

I may have reviewed this place before but in case I'm stoned:

Chez Chilli is the best chinese I've had in this city by a wide margin. Only La Perle comes close.

I've tried: the laziji, the hong shao rou, salt n pepper porchops, fish stew, yu xiang eggplant, several noodle plates, general tao, salt n spicy chicken, cumin squid, beef & lamb, the spicy beef stew, caramelized shortrib, yang zhou fried rice, & a few others I can't remember. Every single one of these dishes is top notch.

The service is great too. They always reseat us when our orders are huge, they explain the dishes very well in case you have doubts, & they're very friendly.

I'll never stop singing their praises, best chinese you can get, hands down.
