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.
Delicious food. Very good service. Hostess, Nelly was very kind & welcoming Our server Jeremy suggested us the dishes & they were perfect. Dishes were very flavorful.
Une excellente découverte de cuisine péruvienne fusion chinoise ! Le poisson était d'une fraîcheur remarquable, parfaitement préparé. Le filet mignon était tendre, bien cuit & plein de saveurs. Le service était attentionné & l'ambiance chaleureuse a complété une expérience mémorable!!
attention, la cuisine est très bonne & le service aussi, mais la facture monte vite & certaines portions sont petites. Peu de légumes accompagne les plats
Je vous recommande fortement le Restaurant Chifa! Honnêtement, la nourriture est vraiment excellente! Le service est impeccable & l'ambiance est chaleureuse! Vous ne serez pas déçu! :-) ⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?

I had a great time at this Peruvian place in Montreal! Honestly, what a gem. The food is made in front of your eyes & the ceviche & tiradito are fresh & full of flavour. All the dishes were fantastic & I found the service to be at a great pace & very friendly. The salmon ceviche was my favourite but honestly you can't ho wrong with any option!
This restaurant is an absolute must visit! The food, service & atmosphere are all delightful. Dahlia & Jeremy were very attentive & helpful, as were other members of the team. It was an absolute pleasure to chat again with Dahlia; she recognized us from our last visit. We'll be back very soon!

C'est notre 3e visite au Chifa. Toujours parfait. Notre visite précédente remonte à il y a près d'un an. Dalhia nous a reconnus aujourd'hui, sans que nous y fassions référence!. La dernière fois, nous étions assis au bar, où elle a répondu à nos mille questions concernant la préparation des plats. Heureuse de partager sa passion pour la cuisine. Aujourd'hui, elle était au service, qui a été impeccable. Personnalité ensoleillée, ambitieuse, passionnée de la restauration. Notre expérience gustative se trouve rehaussée par la chaleur de son service attentionnée. Chifa est devenu une destination obligée à chacun de nos passages à Montréal.
The artistry of the food was amazing, & the vibe of the restaurant hit all the right spots. The food, however, fell a bit flat. The dishes were too heavy on soy sauce (Siu mai dumplings) & the ceviche was to lemony, & the other flavours were overpowered by it. The scallops looked amazing, but once again the taste wasn't as good as the look of it. The dragon fruit drink was delicious, as was the cafecito. I'd definitely come back for the drinks & the vibe, but not necessarily for the food which looks amazing, but tastes only ok.
Service & nourriture excellente!! Superbe travail d'équipe dans ce restaurant, mais mention spéciale à Sarah & Nelly, elles travaillent fort & on ressent qu'elles aiment ce qu'elles font! Lâchez pas votre bon travail, nous allons revenir bientôt!!
