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. Value is seen as good for the quality, even if a few diners find some items pricey for portions, and many say they will return. 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.
I highly recommend the beef sandwich - it was incredibly delicious, with tender meat & rich flavors packed into every bite & also crispy pizza. The tea had a wonderfully smooth taste that paired perfectly with the baklava, which was just the right balance of sweet & flaky. A delightful combo worth trying!
I had an amazing experience! The pizza
was absolutely delicious - perfectly baked with generous toppings & full of flavor.
The atmosphere was very welcoming & cozy, making it a great place to enjoy a meal with friends or family.
The staff were incredibly friendly & attentive, making sure we had everything we needed & always serving with a smile.
I highly recommend Hailar to anyone looking for great food & a warm, friendly environment!
Ordered on Uber eats the cheese pizza. One of the best cheese pulls I've ever seen, very soft crust, delicious. Not a huge fan of the sauce they give on the side though but I'm now definitely intrigued by the sandwiches, although the food is a bit expensive
If you're on the hunt for something unique & full of flavor in downtown Montreal, Chez Hailar is a must-visit. This cozy, casual spot has quickly gained a loyal following for its Iranian-style pizzas & sandwiches, offering a fresh twist on comfort food classics.
top #1 dessert in montreal, the strawberry chocolate cream. apart from dessert, the roasted beef sandwich & spicy bomb pizza are insane. the taste is authentic & reminds of my childhood from iran.
?'I had been looking for this pizza flavor for so long, & I finally found it! & don't even get me started on the staff-so polite & professional. Absolutely amazing!'
