Chez Hailar earns praise for authentic Persian fast food with flavorful pizzas and generous sandwiches, especially the roast beef and Bandari, all tied together by a distinctive house sauce. Desserts like saffron ice cream, faloodeh, and Majoon are highlighted, while portions are described as satisfying and ingredients are fresh. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, with attentive service and a warm Persian vibe that makes guests feel at home, whether dining in or ordering takeout. A few notes mention price being a bit high for certain items and occasional hiccups such as renovations upstairs or delays with orders, but the overall impression is that this spot offers quality, flavor, and value for Iranian street food in downtown Montreal.
This is a special place, it tries & successfully at that, to remain loyal in every aspect to Tehran's popular & middle class pizza places; it certainly has more familiar charm & reminiscence for the Iranian diaspora. Sandwiches are comparable to the best oven roasted subs out there, pizzas are a clear departure from the North American standard. As a late night joint in the heart of the downtown, it is one of the best places to satisfy your cravings & munchies. The price is very reasonable Parking, forget about it & the tea at the end... with the crystallized saffron sugar stick (nabat) & the rose bud... is the cherry on the top.

I recently tried two pizzas, & both delivered in taste & quality! I suggest the roast beef pizza to those who love a hearty, meaty pizza. Pepperoni Pizza is ideal for traditionalists who want that classic pizza flavor. I can say both pizzas were fantastic. I'll definitely be coming back !
