Chillax offre une cuisine japonaise de confort dans une ambiance calme et accueillante et l'on se sent tout de suite a l'aise. Le cadre est simple mais authentique, orné de posters d'anime et d'objets inattendus comme des raquettes Adidas anciennes qui ajoutent une touche de nostalgie. La nourriture est variée et généreuse; certains plats comme le donburi au saumon teriyaki ou l'unagi et les ramen se distinguent par leur profondeur de bouillon et leur tendreté, tandis que les gyoza et les korokke ne convainquent pas tout le monde et que certaines assiettes peuvent paraître trop grasses ou avec trop d'huile et d'oignons. Les portions varient selon les plats; certaines sont généreuses, d'autres peuvent être justes pour le prix. Le service, quand il est assuré par une équipe réduite, est attentif et chaleureux; une serveuse en particulier est souvent décrite comme très aimable, même si le temps d'attente peut être plus long. L'esprit général est cosy et nostalgique et l'endroit est souvent décrit comme une vraie trouvaille cachée, idéale pour un repas détendu entre amis ou en tête à tête, avec une carte de saké intéressante et des options comme edamame, gyoza et karaage qui accompagnent bien les plats. Beaucoup expriment leur envie de revenir, convaincus par la constance de la qualité et le charme du lieu.
Knowing well Japanese food living in Asia. Yes this is good but in my opinion way too much oil & onions in the sauce & not enough meat
Given the price I was disappointed by the portion (quite small) the tiny bit of meat & the huge amount of oil - the egg is a simple sunny side up not at all the Japanese egg I was expecting to get in a Japanese restaurant & for the price we paid!! Biggest disappointment
Service: there always only 1 girl in charge of the whole restaurant - so there was a very long wait - but she was very graceful & smiley
The gyoza are very good & the chicken as well
Ended up paying 120$ for 3 & not sure whether it's really worth it
Authentic Japanese restaurant near the city center. Great atmosphere & the staff is very friendly. This restaurant deserves to be known.
We did try various dishes & were not disappointed. We had Edamame, Gyoza & Karaage as starters, then Oyakodon & chicken Teppanyaki as main. It was clearly sufficient for 2 people. The kitkat dessert looked also very yummy but did not have it in the end.
Everything is good & beyond expectations. Recommend dish: chashudon. The meat was moist & tasted great. The atmosphere is cozy & peaceful, with Japanese decorations.
Amazing japanese restaurant with no-frills authentically savoured food. Stays away from stereotypical pseudo japanese food, & it's fine !! I'll be back next time I miss Japan.
A very quaint & authentic Japanese restaurant which is a hidden gem in Montreal. We have tried many Japanese restaurants in Singapore, Malaysia, US, UK, Canada & of course Japan & this restaurant is right up there with some of the best we ever tried. The owner is so warm & friendly & the decor is immaculate, bespoke & so we'll thought of. The food is amazing, fresh & portion sizes are very good. We really enjoyed our dinner & will surely return when we are next in Montreal.
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!

Hands down, the best Japanese restaurant in Montreal. If you're looking for real Japanese dishes, you have to try this place. Friendly owners & excellent service
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.
Had an amazing experience for my mother's birthday at Restaurant Chillax! We found this lovely little place close to our hotel & it certainly did not disappoint. The portion sizes were perfect & it was some of the best Japanese food we've ever had. The service was also very friendly & efficient. Looking forward to coming back when we're back in town!
