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.

THE BEST OMG I really do think that one of the few things that Toronto has over montreal is Chinese food but this place is a beacon of hope in a sad sad chinatown filled with boba shops &'ravioli chinois' restaurants. Everytime I step into chez chili I am welcomed by the aroma that can only remind me of Toronto. Perhaps this place will cure years of childhood trauma growing up as a person of color in a white town & growing to hate my mom's cooking. Then again maybe not & their braised eggplant is just really good & I didn't need to write my college admissions essay on my stinky lunches. But it got me into college so what can you really do about it? Get the bone in chicken

The food was delicious. We had a huge appetite & therefore ordered a meal for everyone. In hindsight 3 meals for 4 persons would have been more than enough though. The ambience is damped since there are no windows but otherwise very welcoming.
