Quelle belle soirée, vraiment!
Tous les plats que nous avons essayé étaient délicieux & j'ai déjà hâte d'y retourner pour essayer les autres.
Que dire de l'accueil chaleureux de Jérémy & de l'incroyable création cocktail qu'il m'a concocté!
Un grand merci à toute l'équipe pour cette belle soirée!

The food is well season. Tastes good, but for that price, you can for sure find better places. The angus beef plate is a shame - 5 small pieces of beef. The chicken was warm, seems like they just re heated. Service & cocktails were very good. Will I ever come back? NO. The place is OVERPRICED!
Another great night at Chifa. We love coming here for the best cocktails & a delicious bite before a show! Had the wan tan soup (beautiful presentation & surprisingly scrumptious) the BEST chaufa & the lomo saltado. No dessert this time but we'll be back!! Always a win 👌🏼
Chifa is one of the best restaurants I've ever been to not just in Montreal, but anywhere. The menu offers an impressive array of dishes & cocktails, each bursting with distinctive flavors that showcase remarkable culinary craftsmanship. The restaurant strikes the perfect balance with its effortlessly trendy atmosphere-sophisticated yet approachable, never trying too hard to impress.
What truly elevates the experience is the open kitchen concept, where you can watch work their magic on each dish.
I have been here three times so far & plan on coming back every time I am in town. 10/10 highly recommend.
This restaurant was highly recommended by a good friend who frequently travels to Montreal & did not disappoint. The vibe & acoustics are both great. It was very chic & busy, but not overly loud. The service was excellent & we asked our 2 servers what their best dishes were (which they both enthusiastically recommended some different things) & we ordered what they suggested. We started off with 2 signature cocktails which both excellent. For dinner we had the Empanas, Ceviche, Beef with rice & fries & Chow Mein. We had the pudding with ice cream for dessert which was also interesting. All dishes were inventive, tasty & beautiful. The only minor complaint was the dishes were a little small & averaged around $25/dish so for two people you will want to order 4-5 dishes if you are hungry.

Nous étions 5 & nous avons été placés à une table pour 4 donc très serré si non nous avions la possibilité de prendre 2 tables mais les tables étaient vissées au plancher ; pour parler ce n'était pas idéal . Les portions: Plus petites que ce que nous sommes habitués . Pour ma part j'ai pris le lomo saltado ; très salé ! Une chance qu'il y avait du riz pour diluer le sel . Une entrée de dumpling, très salé également. L'entrée d'enpanadas était très bien . Je suis content d'avoir essayé mais je n'y retournerai plus jamais . Un peu déçu de notre expérience. Nous à 3 ça coûté 145 $
3 plats , 2 entrées , 2 bières & un cocktail sans alcools.
Drink cocktails were amazing. Staff was great with nice service. Food did not meet our expectations . Pork Dumplings were basically a chopped hot dog, lomo saltatado was extremely salty, fries were to my opinion frozen fries McCains, caufa was not more than ok. Not impressed. What a shame because I went there a few years back & it was better.
Excellent ! Vraiment un sans faute, des cocktails aux desserts en passant par les entrées & plat principaux, nous nous sommes régalé !
Le menu est original & réalisé à la perfection & le service sublime le tout dans une atmosphère chaleureuse. Merci à l'équipe !
Une adresse à visiter les yeux fermés.

Nous étions quatre amis, le barman Richard nous a expliqué les cocktails, la serveuse nous a offert de choisir les plats pour nous & tout était bons, goûteux & différents, nous n'avons même pas choisi le vin & ce fut une belle découverte. Très bel endroit à inscrire dans la liste de nos resto préférés.
Superbe resto. Ambiance chaleureuse. Les cocktails sont excellents & la nourriture est fantastique. Ma copine & moi avons vraiment apprécié notre expérience. Nous avons adoré les crevettes & le homard.
We really enjoyed sharing different plates with our teenage daughters.
The food is a really interesting mix of traditional Peruvian & Asian influences. The seafood was the perfect texture & perfectly fresh, the sauces were delicious, & the mocktail was gorgeous (I want to come back for a cocktail when I'm not driving!).
If you are adverse to spicy flavors, definitely ask for recommendations, but my teenagers were fine with most of the spice, just the octopus sauce was too much for them (my husband & I were thrilled to eat the part they couldn't finish! 😅).
The staff was super friendly & professional! I only took off one star for atmosphere because we found the music too loud to be able to talk to each other much, so be forewarned, although many places in Montreal are louder.
We're excited to go back again! ❤?

Genuinely incredible find. I had the Purple Dragon cocktail (9.5/10), the chicken & pineapple sauce dish (9/10), & the corn cake dessert (100000000/10). Some of the best food I've ever had, & for dirt cheap. Can't recommend anything better. Staff was incredibly nice & the seat from the bar was fun & atmospheric. The bartender with arm tattoos & the waitress were both kind & personable, & made some incredible recommendations. The waitress made a recommendation for a drink that ended up not being to my friends taste, & she was quick to offer a replacement on the house. Please stop by if you're in the area.
un mélange de saveurs originales mais incroyablement bien fait ! si vous avez envie de découvrir une cuisine mi péruvienne mi chinoise, c'est ici !🩷
nous avons pris 3 plats à partager à deux & c'était largement suffisant. je vous recommande les brochettes de pieuvres, les calamars frits & le général bao !! je vous recommande aussi les cocktails délicieux.
l'équipe était aussi incroyable, bien informée sur leur plat, très respectueux !
