Review Summary

Restaurant Ethan is widely recognized in Montreal Chinatown for offering a broad menu of authentic Cantonese-style cuisine at very affordable prices with generous portion sizes. While many visitors appreciate the quick service, cozy atmosphere, and great value for a casual meal, opinions remain divided regarding the overall experience. Some patrons highlight the efficiency and friendliness of the staff, while others report inconsistent food quality and express frustration over aggressive tipping practices or impolite service. The dining environment is often described as dated or simple, but for those seeking a convenient and budget-friendly spot for staples like dumplings, BBQ meats, or bubble tea, it remains a popular and frequently visited destination.

If you want awesome Cantonese BBQ you won't go wrong here. Price & food taste can't be beat. Amazing portion size & again taste is up there with the best in CA. Highly recommend. By the way if your doing the hop on/off buss tour at stop at the church about a 10min walk to Chinatown where restaurant Ethan is. About 4 restaurant in from the street.

Que dire... Nourriture moyenne mais avec certains plats incroyables ! Service à revoir mais bon j'ai connu pire. Tester & faites vous votre avis. Je recommande quand même les plats à partager (combo je pense) qui sont rentables.
