Chifa is a chifa restaurant montreal and a chinese peruvian restaurant montreal, representing Chef Larrea’s way of sharing childhood memories through his own interpretation of Chinese Peruvian cuisine. Originating from Peru, this Chifa cuisine is the accord of Chinese elements, expressing the identity of a true fusion restaurant montreal.
Chifa offers a lively Peruvian Chinese fusion that many guests find flavorful, creative, and engaging, with an open kitchen that lets diners watch the chefs at work. The menu is built for sharing, delivering a mix of ceviche, anticuchos, lomo saltado, dumplings, and chow mein, paired with crafted cocktails and attentive service that keeps the atmosphere welcoming. The vibes are described as cozy and buzz worthy, a stylish spot suited for date nights, gatherings, or pre show bites, with friendly staff adding to a warm experience. Some reviews mention that portions can be modest for the price and a few dishes could be spicier or more balanced, yet the overall impression centers on high quality ingredients, thoughtful execution, and a memorable, enjoyable dining journey.
Great discovery! The food, the drinks & the energy of the staff...! Wow! Third time there. First for a business gathering, then for a cousin reunion & yesterday with old time friends looking for a short gettaway from their kids. Works for all those occasions.
I highly recommend the skewers plate & anything Cherry the cocktail chef can prepare for your tastebuds.
There are two restaurants in Montreal that are distinctively different than the rest: Chifa & its neighbour, Tiradito, both created by partners chef Marcel Larrea & David Dumay. I highly recommend both. A fun riff on Peruvian-Japanese & Peruvian-Chinese cuisines. Delicious flavours, unusual ingredients, dangerous drinks, staff that will be friends by the time you leave, & an underground bar to end (or begin) the night. Go.

We enjoyed our experience at Chifa. The waiters were very courteous & attentive, the food was delicious & fulfilled our expectations. The pisco sour was a little bit light. We think that potatoes are an important element in lomo saltado so we hope it can be included as an optional side dish for it. As Peruvians, we found that the flavour of the arroz chaufa was very close to the one at home, so it was a very authentic experience. The ceviche de pato was a delightful surprise/combination. We will definitely recommend Chifa to our family & friends & we will come back.
Décor moderne tout en étant chaleureux. Personnel sympathique, attentionné & connaisseur. La nourriture est excellente, tout était bon. Je recommande sans hésiter. J'y retournerai
