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.

I've been here often since I live nearby, & their beef & broccoli (#120) used to be a favourite. Unfortunately, I've gotten seriously ill after eating it on multiple occasions, once even so badly I was sick in the street, with stomach pain & diarrhea. Today was the final straw: I had the same dish again & was hit with intense pain almost immediately after leaving. I've since noticed other reviews mentioning similar experiences. Sadly, I won't be returning, & I want to leave a gentle warning for others.

The duck was a letdown, very dry. The char siu wasn't bad. Not pictured, but got the salt & pepper squid & it needed more flavoring.

There were 3 of us, & I have no notes. A great amount of tasty food for a very reasonable price. What made it better was the service, everyone was so friendly. 10/10 do recommend!

WOW, comme on pourrait dire: Im going tapioca crazy! resto très trim, une vraie explosion de chaleur, visiter le ethan c'est comme visiter son vieil ami de longue date, aller voir big Sam quoi. Vous direz à Annie que c'est moi qui vous envoie!;) Plus de 350+ items sur le menu & pourtant AUCUN sandwich. Depuis mon accident (Saint-Calyxte), ils m'ont réparé les pupilles! tellement c'est bon! Bon comme
une bon repas. Grand champion, grand champion, grand champion, INTERNATIONAL DE BOUFFE!

Chapitre 2.

Depuis que mon père a fait l'inacceptable, je me réconforte dans ces petits plats réconfortants…. Je crois avoir trouvé un sombre tunnel secret à l'arrière-resto, maintenant à votre tour d'oser! Merci c'était bon overall. Je vais revenir. Belle soirée entre hommes.
