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.

I adore this place for its countless options & immaculate HK drinks. However, the quality of its food just isn't consistent enough for me to recommend it to others. The chicken rice I ordered last week was the best I ever had, but the one this week? The taste was off & the green onion sauce didn't look fresh at all. Visit if you like a lil gamble.

We really enjoyed our meal- nothing fancy but tasty & very good pricesz

The service was excellent *despite being seriously under staffed*. While racing around like a headless chicken to all of her tables, our server managed to find an extra table to pull up alongside ours to make us more comfortable as we were initially quite squashed together.

But what really soured the experience & means I won't return to this restaurant is the manner in which they asked for a tip- rather than handing me the machine & allowing me to choose (& due to their good prices & good service I probably would have self selected 18%), instead the lady at the counter asked me'so how was your service today?' When I said'very good thanks' her response was'so will you be leaving a 18% or 20% tip?'
I've lived in Montreal for 6 years & felt like she was giving me the ignorant tourist treatment- putting me on the spot & forcing a higher tip out of me.

We will NOT be returning, this is a horrible way to ask for a tip & completely overshadows the hard work of your servers!!!

Les dumpings sont très bons, pâte fine & viande bonne sous la dent. Le riz est moins exceptionnel. Le lieu n'est pas très bien entretenu. Prix correcte.
