Excellent resto péruvien. Nourriture excellente, très belle présentation & ingrédients frais. Assie au comptoir on voit la préparation & c est cuisiné devant nous. Extrêmement propre 5*.
Les serveurs & cuisiniers sont super. Souriant, belles explications & ce sont des passionnés. L'entrée 4 brochettes sublime. Boeuf tomates wow. Assiette fruit de mer très bon mais c est frit & sur frites. Je regrette pas de l avoir essayé, mais j ai vu plusieurs plats préparés devant nous & la prochaine je y aller plus avec canard. Le resto est petit & seulement 6 tables banquettes qui sont pour les groupe de 3 ou 4. Sinon c est face à la fenêtre ou face aux cuisiniers que je recommande. Drinks très bon. Serveurs & cuisiniers 5*. C est un concept qui on partage les plats si on le désire & wow on goûte bcp de choses.
I'd give 6th stars if there is. Lomo saltado was delicious but a bit small size for the price. I do agree the beef quality is much better than average. Jalea mixta was great too. Mojito was refreshing. Enjoyed a lot!

A delightful fusion of flavors!
This restaurant beautifully blends Peruvian cuisine with subtle Chinese influences, creating a unique & flavorful dining experience. The dishes were well-balanced, rich in taste, & the service was warm & attentive Jeremy was a great host & gave us the right advices.
A must-try for those who enjoy creative culinary twists
Went here for dinner & drinks. The service is super nice here & especially if you live in BRIX because you get a small discount. The ambiance is really nice & it feels like a date night place. Highly recommend to make a reservation beforehand as table seats go by quickly. Overall would highly recommend!
Nice Chinese/Peruvian place! With reasonable price & portion was overall generous. I feel like the Peruvian touch was weaker than other restaurants though, they could've had more originality on each dish.
Visiting Montreal for the weekend we were looking for something a bit different from the many delicious bistros etc. Chifa came up.
Close to our hotel we arrived before 9 pm & sat at the bar. The staff were welcoming & informative.
The play list was Cuban, the menu a fusion of Peruvian & Asian.
The empanadas were excellent, the shrimp also very tasty.
The Chi Jau Kaï Chicken was fantastic - served with rice which we paired with the market vegetables.
The Pastel Cholco was deliciously decadent.
The choice of rum made for a difficult decision.
A gem.
J'ai encore renouvelé l'expérience & jamais déçue! Plats exquis à partager, belle proposition d'accord vin, service impeccable & bel ambiance avec une addition assez raisonnable pour la qualité de tout cela!
