Reviews describe Chez Hailar as a cozy, welcoming spot serving authentic Persian fast food with standout pizzas and sandwiches. The atmosphere is warm and homey, the upstairs dining area is particularly praised while the downstairs is undergoing renovations. The quality of food and ingredients is repeatedly praised, with favorites including roast beef sandwich and roast beef pizza, bandari sandwich, and a variety of Persian style pizzas. Many reviews highlight the restaurant's signature house sauce and a distinctive thyme powder that elevates several pizzas. Desserts and beverages such as saffron ice cream, pistachio shakes, and Dubai chocolate desserts are noted as delicious additions. Service is described as friendly, attentive, and often fast, with appreciation for consistent hospitality across visits, though a few mentions of occasional delays or online order mix-ups exist.

Overall, it comes across as one of the best Persian fast food options in Montreal, delivering bold flavors, varied menu, and a welcoming, nostalgic vibe.
The food was great, the hospitality amazing & the music even better, the warm welcoming environment brought back a nostalgic sense of togetherness from the home country Iran which was a gem.
The vibe in this restaurant is amazing! My friend & I chose the roast beef pizza which had lots of flavor. It made me also try the roast beef sandwich! We got welcomed by Romi & she was very helpful with choosing meals! Thanks a lot!♥? best persian pizza & sandwich i've tried 👍👍
Amazing pizza! The crust was thin & crispy, & the toppings were generous & full of flavor. Definitely one of the best pizzas I've ever had.
The best pizza you can have in Montreal is here. Come to Chez Hailar & enjoy. We had American guests & for the several time they asked us to go Chez Hailar.
