Review Summary

Overall, reviews describe Chez Chili as a reliable source of bold, authentic Sichuan and Chinese flavors in Chinatown, with generous portions and good value. The atmosphere is cozy and casual in a basement setting, and service is usually friendly and efficient, though a few readers note moments of rushing or occasional lapses. The menu is wide and varied, offering dishes from Sichuan, Hunan, and other regional styles, with frequent praise for General Tao, eggplant dishes, mapo tofu, and spice that appeals to heat lovers while some items can be a tad salty. Takeout and delivery are consistently praised, and many guests say the food is consistently delicious, making Chez Chili a go to for those seeking spicy, flavorful Chinese cuisine in Montreal.

I was there on Chinese new year. Although the food was good but I wasn't satisfied with hygiene in the place.

some dishes are pretty good, & some is just so so. The whole place is bit crowded. Dishes are on the table pretty fast after order. But after that, basically no service at all.

Been here multiple times. The eggplant is always a fan favorite. The sweet & sour ribs were also nice.

Went for dinner on a Friday night & selected the restaurant based on the below reviews . Had to wait about 10 mins on the stairs , during the wait they did not ask us how many seats . Finally they gave me a table which was vacant from the beginning . It's a noisy place .The tables are so close you can over hear all conversations . Coming to the food , I ordered sea food fried rice without squid . The rice was clamped up & not fried well with exact 6 big prawns which I felt was rubbery .

Worth its rating. I got 外婆菜 & 回锅肉. Both are fine They force tipping at the end (we were group of 2 & got 2 dishes). I was gonna tip the 15% anyways but getting forced is another feeling

Wonderful food, quick service, generous portions & fair price. The staff was extremely nice, even though the place was busy. Two things sold out or in the verge of being sold out, unfortunately: Tsingtao beer & lajiaoyu (chilly oil), it would be nice to see the restaurant restock them next time :)
