Chillax is described across reviews as a cozy, casual Japanese spot with a calm, welcoming vibe where comforting dishes like ramen, donburi, gyoza, and karaage hit the mark, with many noting salmon teriyaki donburi, udon, and fried squid or takoyaki as standouts; the space is simple and authentic, and the decor with anime posters adds a nostalgic energy that many find charming. The service is praised for friendliness and attentiveness, though in one case a long wait occurred when only one staff member was on duty. It is often called a hidden gem and a reliable go to for casual meals, with guests enjoying a homey atmosphere and a good selection of sake, while some concerns include sauces that feel a bit oily, portions that can seem small for the price, and one review mentioning an egg that did not meet expectations. Overall Chillax comes across as a consistently tasty, comfortable place that invites repeat visits.
A hidden Montreal gem. Undeniably tasty & perfectly executed every single time. I highly recommend the karaage, the chicken teppanyaki Udon, & the takoyaki :)))
Une cuisine délicieuse & savoureuse !
Un vrai plaisir de découvrir un nouveau plat à chaque venue. Un grand merci aux hôtes pour leur immense gentillesse & leur attention.
Je recommande vivement !

Everything is good & beyond expectations. Recommend dish: chashudon. The meat was moist & tasted great. The atmosphere is cozy & peaceful, with Japanese decorations.
I went to this place because it was close to my hotel & had great reviews on Google. I was not disappointed. The place is small but cozy. It was not crowded, & the service was friendly & quick. My soup was very good, & it was a good value for the money. I would definitely recommend it.
Lovely little Japanese restaurant with lots of plants, & studio ghibili memorabilia on the walls. It's quiet & very relaxing. The poke bowl was delicious, with a creamy slightly sauce that is perfection. The iced lychee green tea was sweet & refreshing. Highly recommend!
Nourriture excellente, fraîche & savoureuse! Beaucoup de choix sur le menu & prix abordables. La dame était très courtoise & donnait un bon service. Je recommande l'okonomiyaki, elle était incroyable!!
Chillax is a great addition to the student ghetto. Located on Park just below Milton, this restaurant has everything. Really fine Japanese food, friendly personal service & a great atmosphere. You don't notice this the place so much from the street but that contributes to its hidden charms. I've lived in the area for 43 years & I'm very happy to have such good cuisine in the area that isn't hard on my wallet. Highly recommend checking it out.
This place is amazing I don't understand why it was so empty when I went the place should be full ! the staff are lovely the food is so tasty super clean everything is perfect ( really recommend the mango cheese cake ) :)
Great place to visit for a small taste of Japan. If you want to experience something other than sushi, Chillax has a great menu of different dishes to try. Service is friendly & quick. The atmosphere is great, I recommend getting some stickers with your order.
EXCELLENT! Je recommande absolument ce petit restaurant tout calme & propre. Le takoyaki est super bien fait, parmi les meilleurs que j'ai goûté. Le poke bol tempura est une tuerie 😍.
We love this place! They have awesome veggie options, it’s flavourful, super kind staff & beautiful ambience. Clean resto & quality foooood! 100% recommend 🏮🍜
