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.

I had an unforgettable night at this restaurant; I had a great time & enjoyed it a lot. The atmosphere was very cozy & pleasant. The staff was very friendly, & I had an incredibly delicious sandwich. I recommend visiting this place if you're looking to try a unique & very tasty flavor. Especially if you're craving Iranian-style sausage, cold cuts, or Iranian-style pizza, this place will definitely satisfy you.

Yesterday we had the pleasure of visiting Chez Hailar with our family. We ordered 5 different kinds of pizza, 2 different sandwiches, & an appetizer. Every item was a hit. The pizzas were cooked so well, & packed with flavour. The sandwiches were equally flavourful. Overall, it was a such a wonderful experience & we can't wait to be back!

We had an incredible experience at this place! The pizza was delicious, & the soosis bandari was a must-try. The friendly staff made us feel right at home & even treated us to a roast beef sandwich since it was our first visit. Highly recommended!

The price of sandwiches & pizza is relatively high. For example, $19 plus tax for a sandwich in Montreal is a very high price.
