About

Chez Hailar serves an authentic array of Iranian culinary traditions centered on aromatic saffron-infused basmati rice and expertly grilled skewers. The menu features signature kabobs seasoned with vibrant spices alongside slow-cooked stews that highlight the depth of Persian flavor profiles. Patrons encounter a specialized selection of traditional appetizers such as mast-o-khiar and robust vegetable-based dishes prepared according to halal requirements. This establishment integrates the relaxed atmosphere of a café with the foundational elements of Iranian hospitality, providing a focused environment for those seeking traditional skewers and hearty comfort plates. Every component, from the marinated proteins to the freshly baked flatbreads, follows time-honored preparation methods to maintain ingredient integrity. The setting remains functional and direct, emphasizing the consistency of the flavors rather than decorative flourish for a straightforward culinary encounter.

Chez Hailer is a Persian fast food spot in Montreal that serves a wide variety of Persian-style pizzas along with hot & cold sandwiches. They're currently renovating the downstairs, but you can sit upstairs where Persian music fills the space & gives it a cozy, home-like vibe. The décor upstairs feels different from downstairs, & there's no reception at the moment because of the renovations.

The food quality was great - fresh, flavorful, & delicious. One thing I really liked is that you can order sandwiches in either 7-inch or 14-inch sizes. The pizza crust is super thin, which makes it light & easy to enjoy. Totally recommend!

I had an amazing experience at Chez Hailar! The taste was absolutely incredible. The pizza was cooked well. It is thin crust & had that satisfying crunch, while the sauce was just amazing. Thanks to Romina for making it special for us as well.

Had lunch here & it was amazing. I had a pizza with Persian sausage & others on my table had different types of sandwiches. Every single order was delicious. On top of it all, Romina's service was so attentive & kind & the space was clean with a nice ambiance.

This is a little fantastic gem on sherbrooke street in montreal. Great sandwiches, excellent pizzas, delicious salads. We had the roast beef sandwich, sausage sandwich, & a bandari sandwich, we also had a supreme pizza & a sausage pizza. All the flavors were sublime. In the sandwich the hint of parsley was exquisite!
Romina our server was pleasant & very informed. We will surely return & we highly recommend a visit.
