Ordered on Uber eats. Food portions are large & packaged with care to avoid spills. I had the general tao chicken, the Singapore noodles & the braised eggplant. I'd recommend all 3 dishes!
Excellent variety of food. Very authentic cuisine. Great service from Tony, very welcoming & prompt. Would highly recommend to friends & family 👏❤️🫂💐. Evy was also an amazing server😊❤️👏
Ce restaurant chinois, situé en plein milieu de Chinatown, est un véritable bijou d'authenticité. Dès l'entrée, l'accueil chaleureux & amical du personnel vous met à l'aise. L'atmosphère est authentique, ce qui ajoute au charme de l'endroit. Quant à la nourriture, c'est un régal ! Les portions sont généreuses & chaque plat est un véritable délice. De plus, si vous ne pouvez pas tout finir, pas de souci : les restes peuvent être emportés chez vous. Si vous êtes de passage dans Chinatown, je vous recommande vivement de faire un arrêt ici. Vous ne serez pas déçu !

This place is the best shezuan Chinese in montreal. If you have not eaten here you are missing something. The portions are generous & the place may look like a hole in the wall in china town but the food is far from. A mist eat on any foodys list. I recommend them with 5 stars.
What a nice suprise ! If you're looking for a nice, calm & fresh place (functionning AC), I would recommend going here ! The staff we're all very courteous, the wait was not too bad, & the food very good.
Restaurant chinois qui nous avait été recommandé. Poulet général tao surcuit! Sec en bouche & dur.... Ça devrait être une spécialité non Crevettes panées étaient juste correctes, sans plus. Le riz aux légumes étaient excellent! Bonne ambiance car c'était plein! Entrée atypique. On doit descendre au sous-sol & personne pour nous accueillir.... C'est plutôt bizarre.🤔. Les serveurs ne sont pas super souriantes.... déposent les plats & repartent en courant! Pas sûr que je vais réessayer.....
Really love the food here! I often dine at this restaurant & am always satisfied with the quality of their food. A varied menu with reasonable prices. Service is also friendly & fast. The restaurant atmosphere is also comfortable. Highly recommended for Chinese food lovers
Located in a prime spot in Chinatown, this underground restaurant is always bustling with a crowd. The atmosphere is vibrant, & the staff is incredibly friendly & attentive. The food was quite good, though it took some time to get used to the unique flavors. Portions are very generous-almost too much. By the time I finished the appetizer, I was already feeling full. Despite that, I went on to try the Singaporean noodles, chicken fried rice, & assorted vegetables, which were all quite tasty. Given the popularity of the place, I highly recommend making a reservation in advance to avoid the long queues.
Our hotel was right around the corner from Chinatown. We googled Chinese Food restaurants & Chez Chili came up highly rated so my husband & I checked it out. It's a great little place in the basement. We were warmly greeted & served immediately. The food came out quickly & everything was piping hot. Every dish we ordered was very tasty. The portions were big & there was plenty left over to take with us. Highly recommend!
Received spoiled food that seemed okay. My boyfriend & I had gotten a couple dishes a month ago for our anniversary, it included the general Tao & two types of fried rice. The food tasted good but we'd gotten food poisoning for 2/3 days after so we recommend anyone to tell them to cook it well! The service was 10/10 though! Enjoyed the environment, we were just upset about our upset stomachs.
