Review Summary

Chez Chili is widely regarded as a standout destination in Montreal's Chinatown for authentic, flavorful, and generously portioned Chinese cuisine, particularly specializing in Sichuan and Hunan styles. Guests frequently praise the restaurant for its fresh ingredients, consistent quality, and efficient, friendly service that makes it a popular choice for both quick lunches and social family-style dinners. While the basement setting provides a cozy, lively atmosphere, some diners suggest arriving early to avoid potential wait times. Although most experiences are highly positive, a few reviews note occasional inconsistencies in spice levels or service pacing during peak hours, yet the overall consensus remains that it is a must-visit spot for those seeking delicious, reliable, and reasonably priced meals.

Se baladant dans le quartier chinois de Montréal, chez Chili est un petit restaurant discret qui cache bien son jeu ! Nous sommes entrés & descendus pour découvrir une salle animée, conviviale & tenue par une équipe accueillante & dynamique. Nous avons très bien mangé, c'était super bon, mais les parts sont gargantuesques & les prix un peu élevés. Malgré cela, nous avons adoré nos plats (un peu trop épicés quand même) & vous conseillons vivement d'y aller !

Going to be my go to when I'm craving Chinese food in Montreal. I've avoided Chinese food in Montreal after a terrible experience at another restaurant in China Town, so I am glad I've found chez Chili.

I ordered in advanced on Uber & I'm glad I did as there was a long line on a Friday evening.

Every dish we ordered was super flavourful. My favourites were the eggplant & pan fried green beans.
