Les avis sur Ethan convergent vers une adresse chinoise accessible où les plats cantonais classiques, les dim sum et les nouilles restent globalement savoureux et copieux, et les prix sont raisonnables pour des portions servies rapidement. La nourriture est souvent décrite comme authentique et agréable, avec des mentions positives sur le canard, les dumplings, le riz frit et les boissons associées. Cependant l experience peut être entachée par une attitude des serveurs perçue comme brusque ou trop axée sur le pourboire, et certains clients se sentent mal à l aise lorsque le service devient pressant ou quand la salle est très fréquentée. Des remarques sur des soucis d hygiène mineurs et une ambiance parfois bruyante ou simple cadre reviennent aussi. Dans l ensemble, Ethan demeure une option fiable pour manger rapidement et bon marché, surtout pour ceux qui recherchent une cuisine authentique, mais la constance du service et l atmosphère peuvent varier selon l heure et le personnel.
Nous voulions un souper rapide & le service a été super expéditif c'est apprécié. Les prix sont très abordables & la nourriture est correcte. Ce n'est pas de la grande gastronomie il faut nivelé ses attentes en conséquence c'est normal. Le problème que j'ai & est que les xio long baos étaient pas assez cuits, la pâtes était visiblement encore crue. Autrement les autres plats étaient correctes. Le rapport qualité prix est acceptable.
If you are feeling charitable this is the best place for you!! The food is soooo cheap (10 dumplings for 7$) it's perfect for feeding the homeless. The portions are large, & their take out containers are sooo transportable. I got 20 dumplings, two soups, a bowl of rice & a heaping plate of orange chicken doused in a thick thick saw. Take my word for it, don't bother trying the food; just give it to the homeless.
I go to this resto all the tiiime.🤩 I think they're the only restaurant I know of that did not raise their prices like all the others from the recent inflation. It's great if you don't want to end up spending like 20$ on one single plate of food.
I like ordering the dumplings because they're WAY cheaper then any other place. Love that they have plates with rice & a choice of meat dish, it saves money when you're by yourself & don't want to have to order 2 big plates. I like the soups & noodle dishes as well.
The only dish I tried so far I didn't like was the chow mein.
Staff are always super nice with me, I don't understand what those bad reviews are talking about lol. I'm pretty sure I skipped tips occasionally but they never got mad at me for it, but that may be because they know me & I go there often & will tip what I can afford most of the time.
It has to be the worst experience I've ever had….
From the second I got in I was very polite, said'hello' no reply, said'thank you' again no reply, not even a smile on her face..
I got served my Wonton Soup with nothing on the table, well for the other tables, she served them water, ustensils, sauces, salt & pepper.
I had to go ask, they eventually brought me a glass of water.
She brings the tea & spill it on my table, obviously it was on purpose, no extra tissues, no cleaning.
I went back asking for tissues & sauces.. then she came bringing them to my table.
They don't deserve the tip, tho I've tipped..
FYI Ive removed my 5 stars review from two years ago, I've visited this restaurants numerous times & today I was shocked by the customers are getting treated.
Looking at the comments it doesn't seem to be a surprise to treat their customers the way they did with me.
Le plat était bien présenté, les portions généreuses, le goût était identique à celui des plats de supermarché (rien d'exceptionnel), le service était passable & l'endroit correct. Nous avons mangé une soupe au bouillon de poulet, des raviolis au porc & des nouilles. Nous avons également goûté aux raviolis au poulet, mais leur saveur était indéfinissable. Le prix était raisonnable.
General tao looked like the costco'general tao' & the pork strips tasted a bit like churros… the noodles from the dish at the top of the plastified menu is just instant noodles or taste a lot like it. The soup had not much flavor even when I added enough soy sauce to change its colo

Always looking forward to try different Chinese restaurants. Indeed, this was also the best one. My personal fav was the soup dumpling. It was nice restaurant + friendly staff. Even the kitchen chef's at the kitchen also serve the food. ❤️
We were party of 6. Sufficient room to accommodate multiple guests. Quick service. Friendly staff. Delicious authentic Cantonese dishes. Beef soup was excellent. The spring rolls were the best. Highly recommend Restaurant Ethan in China Town, Montreal Canada.
Visited this Chinese cantonese restaurant because we we searching for a place to warm up with some good hot soup. We ordered chicken corn soup & the beef soup with a side of crispy spring rolls:). Both were excellent! We also ordered the chicken fried rice, broccoli chicken, chow mein, we enjoyed all dishes the General taos chicken could have been crispier but it wasn't bad. Overall we had a nice experience. Ambiance was decent however the restroom could have used some attention. One staff member should be dedicated to this. Will visit again when in Montreal!
Je vais souvent dans ce restaurant. Pour une fois j'ai eu un assez bon service. La serveuses était bien aimable. Les plats étaient aussi très délicieux. Des très grosses portions, qu'il en restait pour emporter. Le mobilier & les cartes du menu ont réellement besoin d'être remplacé. Les soupes de nouilles, les dumplings, le riz étaient très bons. Le prix aussi était très raisonnable.

The staff is incredibly polite ad friendly, you can ask any question & they will answer. The food was deliciousand felt authentic & made with care. We had dumplings, gyoza or jiaozi like, they were great. We also got Wonton soup, the broth was rich & light, the vegetables were soft. Such a nice experience.
Good service. Missing some A/C. Dumplings shrimp soup ok. It was not a great choice on a very muggy day [ my fault] . The shrimp toast was very good. The 20 dumplings for 10$ were soggy on the inside , not the best I have ever had, but the beef & broccoli were capital D elicious ,so much in the plate. Would have loved more of the beef sauce for the Chinese broccoli . Second time there. Very good prices for the amount of food. 46 plus tip for 3 people, soft drinks & extra rice. Good value
Very cheap eat. Typical Chinese foods Good price point, comparing to other restaurants nowadays. Bubble tea for $3 Dumpling for $6 Small soup $3 Taste: average Price: very cheap Location: good, easy to find Service: typical Chinese restaurant Atmosphere: just like other Chinese restaurants. Taste: bland but easy to eat The server can communicate but not very well. I'm ok with this place, when I'm in town & looking for easy Chinese food, this is my go-to.
I had an excellent dining experience at Restaurant Ethan as the food was very delicious, & the service was attentive & very accommodating. Everything is very authentic Hong Kong style especially the won-ton noodle soup, congee & youtiao (Chinese donut). Definitely a 5 stars restaurant.
Tried this restaurant while walking in Chinatown as it looked busy inside. BIG MISTAKE not taking a look at reviews first to see the low ratings. We ordered the combo A for two & added 10 pieces of dumplings as it is very reasonably priced. The combo includes soup, chicken, fried rice, vegetables, egg roll. It was a red flag when the general tso's chicken came out 1 min after ordering - the chicken was luke warm so I think they have it pre made as its a popular dish part of many combos. For those who say this is authentic Chinese food, it is definitely not. It's westernized fast food Chinese that is average at best. We were brought vegetables & multiple servers were yelling beside our table & across the restaurant that they messed up our table number & brought us the wrong type of veggies (I understand Cantonese). One of the servers eventually took the vegetable dish away, however I told her I had eaten a piece of broccoli & she looked at me & acknowledged what I said... then she took the vegetables & gave it to the table right beside us! After that, I didn't have much of an appetite - this shows the class of service or care that the restaurant operates at. While paying the cashier was extremely snappy & rude to the gentleman ahead of us ordering for take out. I would not go back nor recommend this restaurant.
We were four (2 adults/2 children) & ordered Won Ton Chop Suey Soup for four, Roasted Duck, General Tao chicken, Chicken Fried Rice, Shrimp in Lobster Sauce & two Smoothies. A plate of duck was placed in front of us. When I enquired about the soup, & asked why we were getting the duck before the soup without rice or anything else, I was told by the skinny waitress to calm down & that this was a fast-food restaurant. The rest of the food was brought to us at the same time (in less than 1 minute) leaving no room on the table for us to put our bowls or plates. Yet the couple next to us were eating their soup separately.... & their other courses came afterwards. No need to say that I will not go again nor will I recommend this restaurant to anyone. The cashier & waitress in question were also laughing out loud looking in our direction. Portions are of good size, food is not bad, but smoothies were just cracked ice with little flavour! This waitress truly ruined our good humour!
Had lunch there, earlier on. It is not a fancy place, but the food (chinese dishes, plenty of porq bbq, duck based fares) is relatively affordable for the quantity of food. The food itself is not bad at all, by montreal standards: as an example, my soup of pork bbq, duck & vermicelli (a generous bowl, at less than $7) featured tasty duck & pork, the bouillon tasty enough. In this genre, it is not among the very best in town (their speciality is bbq meat) but definitely acceptable. Friendly service.
