La chifa est, pour le chef Larrea, une façon de partager ses souvenirs d’enfance à travers sa propre interprétation de la cuisine sino-péruvienne, proposée au sein de ce restaurant chifa Montréal. Originaire du Pérou, la chifa - pilier de ce restaurant chinois péruvien Montréal - est issue de la rencontre entre les techniques de la cuisine chinoise et les ingrédients traditionnels péruviens. Cette identité culinaire unique s’exprime dans un restaurant fusion Montréal mettant à l’honneur la cuisine nikkei et chifa Montréal, dans une atmosphère familiale, détendue et chaleureuse, idéale pour les repas en famille, les enfants et les moments de 5 à 7, à proximité du Centre Bell, de la Place des Arts, des festivals et du Palais des congrès.
Nos Spécialités

Les avis sur Chifa soulignent une fusion péruvienne et chinoise originale, des plats à partager et une présentation soignée qui mettent en valeur des saveurs riches et équilibrées. L'ambiance est chaleureuse et conviviale, le service est attentif et les cocktails et desserts sont souvent remarqués, donnant envie de revenir, malgré quelques remarques sur le prix ou la taille des portions.
Nourriture trop cuite trop salée. Cocktails : jolie presentation mais le goût n y est pas. Service : apporte plat principal en 1 er puis les entrées à la fin. Les serveurs ne communiquent pas entre eux ... Les ustensiles sont arrivés en fin de repas sur la table ... Toilettes vraiment inaccessibles (escaliers) & beaucoup trop loin du restaurant.
My date said this was her favourite restaurant - in faith in her tastes I obliged. Peruvian-Chinese fusion is not run-off-the-mill cuisine, & Chifa does a fine job at executing this niche of fusion. My experience with other fusion restaurants is that the dishes tend to lean towards one side with only a touch of the other cuisine that it is supposed to be a fusion with. Chifa's dishes are perfectly balanced between Peruvian & Chinese, creating a wholly new experience. The octopus skewers were delectable. Really enjoyed the beef dish as well. The friend chicken comes in 3rd place but was still very enjoyable. Expert chefs at this place creating some impressive dishes. The atmosphere of this place is nice too, they did a good job at using the space. The bathroom is a bit of an adventure to get to but a minor detail. Prices are reasonable for this level of dining.
We came because of the amazing reviews & kind of disappointed. Food: the seafood dish with the sauces was good but not amazing. I forgot the name of the chicken dish but didn't expect it to be like it was which is fine but just tasted ok. Atmosphere: nice dining atmosphere, cozy & cool Service: it was weird. We had a reservation. We didn't know who the host was & just waited as directed by the sign at the front door. About 5 mins after the hostess came over & apologized for the wait but she had also been standing nearby talking to someone glancing at us every now & then. Then we were going to the bar to be seated but 4 stools were damp wet & the hostess made the wise suggestion to wait for other seats to open & we agreed to that. She had us wait at two stools near the entrance so we could sit & look at the menu. A couple waitstaff did check on us during our wait to see if we wanted to order & we explained what happened. The hostess didn't come back & finally a server asked if we just wanted to order instead there as we had been waiting. I saw a couple open seats in another section & she asked one couple if they wouldn't mind moving a seat over to accommodate us. So after all that it was about 40 mins after our reservation time. Not just for us, but it seems their online reservation has groups booked too close together as we saw others come in & wait staff looking for a table.
The staff greeted us with big smiles & seated us promptly. The bartender was really cool. Made great drinks (see pictures). The atmosphere was great & the food came out quickly. Happy hour is really good there, you can save mucho bucks from 5 to 7pm. Only downside is the location of the bathroom which is a bit of a hike but did not downgrade my experience. Go for the dumplings!! The 4 skewers were fantastic... mushroom, chicken, duck, beef. Server with the tatts is really nice & told my gf that she is really beautiful. Great time!

Food is 11/10, absolutely incredible & tasty. Portions are well sized, & everything we had was so delicious. Service was impeccable. The restaurant is a bit noisy & loud inside so it's hard to maintain a conversation but they have a nice terrace outside. Overall highly recommend Chifa for delicious Peruvian fusion cuisine!
Très bonne nourriture mais peu de places. Nous avions réservé & nous nous sommes retrouvés au bar. Heureusement, le maître d'hôtel nous a donné une table après qu'elle se soit libérée
Nous avons bien aimé notre expérience, les cocktails incroyables, les plats tout à fait délicieux, le service vraiment excellent mais malheureusement comme dans plusieurs restos/bar la musique est beaucoup trop forte c'est dérangeant!
L'ambiance & le décor valent le détour. Un menu simple, sans prétention. Les cocktails sont délicieux. Nos deux plats principaux étaient un peu trop salé. Outre cela, nous avons passé une excellente soirée. Le service était était impeccable!

La nourriture est bonne mais le prix ne vaut pas la peine . J'ai pris les crevettes elle étaient 17$ pour 4 crevettes , si tu vas dans un restaurant typiquement asiatique tu peux trouver une plus grosse portion pour un peu moins cher . Le boeuf typiquement péruvien étaient très salé , ça goûter comme un ragoût fait maison avec du soya , le poulet frit était un peu trop salé , ils ont mariné dans du soya & avec une sauce très salé ( asiatique ) tous ce que j'ai mangé sauf le ceviche au saumon ne vaut pas la peine aller plutôt dans un restaurant chinois . Vous allez plus pour votre argent .
This was a great find. It was conveniently located footsteps from our hotel. It was getting late & the place was busy & inviting. All I wanted was soup, & they had the best won ton soup ever. We came back the next night for more & tried more things on the menu.
The food at this place is just incredible if you like trying fusion cuisine asian/peruvian. The staff is super nice & absolutely passionate I have discovered so many great dishes & drinks from their recommendations. Must try the Pisco Sour 🍹 & the 4 skewers tasting 🍢 as well as the ceviche are my personal favorites. This is really a montreal hidden gem 💎 most restaurant staff from other high end restaurants love to go to this spot to eat & that says a lot. It can be a bit tight & you do need a reservation as it's mostly sold out for the busy nights like Thursday to Sunday.
