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.

Amir & Babak are also super friendly & welcoming every time I go there, which makes the experience even better. Great atmosphere, great service, & great food. Definitely recommend trying this place if you're in Montreal!

Je suis tombé par hasard sur cette sandwicherie au centre-ville car j'avais une envie pressant d'uriner. J'étais un peu sceptique car c'était la première fois. Mais honnêtement, they made my day. Le sandwich était excellent: emballage fancy, pain très frais, la sauce assez pour faciliter la mastication, les légumes frais, & la viande très tendre. Le smoothie pistachio & avocat est définitivement la cerise sur le gâteau. Il doit sûrement être un best seller 😍 Trop onctueux & trop délicieux. En plus, l'équipe est très chaleureux & l'environnement propre & calme. Je compte refaire cette expérience mais avec la famille & les amis. Trop hâte d'amener ma femme aussi, elle va capoter. Merci de cette expérience exceptionnelle

Quite overpriced, i paid $87 for a full sub & a pizza with 2 soft drinks. Not worth it.

Pizza has to stretch…
It has to be hot…
It has to be thick & loaded with toppings…
& every bite should hit just right-you should feel the flavor under your teeth.

That's exactly my kind of pizza, & honestly, this is the only place where I've truly experienced it. 🍕🔥
