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.

Service was good & fast, food was ok, chicken was really more cartilage than meat & wasn't tasty to eat, might have to try it again since overall it looked like a nice place.

Food was good. But being in a basement was not great! Don't know why they had flies. Maybe the AC wasn't working well because the air was a little smoky.
