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.

Belle découverte! Nourriture excellente & personnel super agréable & courtois. Tout était wow! Nous avons mangé au bar devant les plans de travail de deux « artistes » qui préparaient les plats avec une grande minutie, bravo!
This is a pretty good fusion restaurant with some standout dishes.
For appetizers, we ordered the combo anticuchos, daily cones, & ceviche. The combo anticuchos were excellent-$28 for four skewers, & each type of meat was grilled to perfection with great flavor balance. The grilled mushrooms had a slightly sweet taste, which was an interesting touch.
The daily cones, however, were underwhelming. The cones weren't particularly crispy, & we tried all three flavors, but none of them stood out. The octopus one had a strange taste.
The ceviche was absolutely amazing-super fresh, with tender fish & a bright, citrusy kick that made it incredibly refreshing. Definitely a must-order for next time!
For the main course, we had the Duckitos. It's not a traditional Peking duck, but it came with a sweet & spicy dipping sauce, ginger strips, & pickled radish, all of which complemented the dish beautifully. The only downside was that a few pieces of duck weren't properly deboned, which could be a safety issue.
For dessert, we followed our server's recommendation & got the corn cake. I'm pretty sure it was made fresh to order because we waited at least 10 minutes-but it was worth it. The cake was soft, fragrant, & steaming hot, perfectly paired with ice cream. No one could say no to that.
As for drinks, the Marauchita was the better choice-fruitier & more refreshing overall.
A solid spot with some real highlights. Would definitely come back for the ceviche & corn cake!

I made a reservation for a group of 13. They gave us the big table in the back which was perfect as we got our little space & was able to put our personal belongings on the side. Jeremy was our waiter, fantastic job, he was patient with us. The food was delicious!
Tried CHIFA
big disappointment. None of the dishes had any real flavor. I really wanted to like it, but the octopus was the worst I've ever had in my entire life.
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 !
This place is a must! Came here a few months back, we ordered a few dishes, I didn't find the daily cones to be worth it, they were a bit overpriced & really not filling or overly tasty. HOWEVER, we ordered two other dishes & if we could, we would have licked the plates clean. They were absolutely fantastic, I really truly recommend this place to anyone
Delicious!! My friends & I took a variety of appetizers & main dish, we taste a bit of everything & it was incredible! The customer service was amazing as well !!
Excellent quality of food & care for details from the young dynamic chefs, however way too pricey for the size of the dishes.
Maybe ok for downtown office folk, but for glob-trotter foodies super familiar with Mtl gastronomic scene, it's a stretch on the budget...we'll return one of those nights when we go see a show at PdA...

L'endroit est très cool. La cuisine est ouverte & la nourriture est délicieuse. Il y a un happy hour avec des offres très intéressantes! Le serveur Jeremy s'est très bien occupé de nous & il a résolu tous nos problèmes !
La cuisine fusion Chine & perou du chifa est bien équilibré, bon canard ,lomo saltado & entrées bien faites ,style tapas , bon pisco sour, vins un peu cher mais collection privée
Food is amazing; the flavor is very strong & distinctive. Ceviche, skewers, & pastel choclo (dessert) are the highlights of our meal. Peruvian x Chinese is such an impressive combo. Service & ambiance are great. It's definitely worth a try.

Nous avons très bien mangés & goûter a une dizaine de leur plat qu'on a partager a 3. De bons petits cocktails. Ça nous a coûter beaucoup d'argent mais les plats était très bon … belle ambiance & bon service avec les serveurs !
Great atmosphere but prohibitive prices for ridiculously small portions, food was rather average. Also, question mark on the hygiene of preparation as I saw the employee preparing the daily cones (raw meat & fish) with her bare hands with no gloves nor protection, something I do not see even in Mc Donald restaurants.. Huge disappointment, I will never return.
The only negative about my experience at Chifa was that I was enjoying the food so much, I forgot to take pictures of most of it! We reserved for 20 people for a surprise party, & they accommodated us perfectly in a private section. It was exactly what we needed, & the whole setup felt seamless.
Now, let's talk about the food-it was absolutely delicious. Every single dish was on point. We went with the formula option, which allowed us to try a bit of everything. In total, we had around seven different dishes, & every single one was fresh, perfectly seasoned, & bursting with flavor. Honestly, I can't even pick a favorite because they were all so good, but if I *had* to, the fried chicken was a standout (my personal'coup de coeur'). The mushroom skewers were unbelievable, & the ceviche with its sauce was next level.
The service was also amazing-friendly, fast, & super attentive, even with such a large group. The food came out quickly, & the staff made sure everything was running smoothly. From start to finish, it was an amazing experience.
If you're looking for a spot with incredible food & great service, Chifa is a no-brainer. 5 stars, hands down. I'll definitely be back!
