Review Summary

Restaurant Ethan is widely recognized in Montreal's Chinatown for offering a broad selection of authentic Cantonese dishes, including popular items like Peking Duck, dumplings, and various noodle plates. Many patrons praise the establishment for its generous portions, rapid service, and exceptionally affordable prices, making it a reliable destination for a quick and casual meal. While the dining environment is often described as simple, dated, or busy, many guests find it adds to the traditional atmosphere reminiscent of Hong Kong eateries. Feedback on service and food quality is notably varied, as some diners appreciate the friendly and efficient staff, while others report inconsistent seasoning, occasional hygiene concerns, or dismissive attitudes. Despite these mixed experiences, the restaurant remains a frequent go to for those seeking value, though visitors are encouraged to manage expectations regarding fine dining service.

Cuisine chinoise traditionnelle assez goûteuse & aux portions très généreuses. Le service est rapide, l'ambia?ce un peu bruyante. Les prix sont modérés.

Probablement un des pires restaurants dans le quartier chinois. On a commandé 5 plats, ils goûtaient tous le surgelé. C'était mou, trop salé ou ça goûtaient tout simplement me fond de boîte. La serveuse ne parlait pas français & nous a couru après pour qu'on la tip. Je recommande d'aller littéralement n'importe où d'autre dans le china town.

The quality of its food is insanely inconsistent & the dining environment is subpar, but Restaurant Ethan is like a toxic relationship. You can't help but go back every once in the while for the wide range of options it offers & its unbeatable price.

We got takeout here & came back the next night for a casual dinner. The service people are very nice & the food is fantastic value for Montreal. We enjoyed every dish & they got the food out very quickly. The decor is dated, but I'm willing to overlook that for an authentic Cantonese style restaurant.

Food was warm & comforting. No wait on a Saturday night, very nice service & super fast order. General Tsao Chicken was quick, a bit hard, but overall good. Lo mein was super skinny noodle, thinner than we are accustomed to but good.

A good stop for a quick & safe bite in China Town.
