Review Summary

La Chilenita is widely regarded as a cozy, family-run gem known for its authentic Chilean cuisine and welcoming atmosphere. Many patrons praise the delicious, high-quality menu items such as the empanadas, Barros Luco sandwiches, and churros, noting that the food feels homemade and satisfying. While the vast majority of visitors highlight the friendly, attentive service and great value, some feedback mentions inconsistency regarding the texture of the empanadas and mixed feelings about the inclusion of Mexican dishes on the menu.

La Chilenita, c'est un endroit pour profiter d'une restauration simple, délicieuse, & d'une ambiance sympa & douce! Rien de tel pour faire "glouton jasette"! Seule, avec son chéri, ses enfants, les collègues ou les amis...il n'y a aucune raison de se priver de ce bonheur à prix démocratique 😉!

Great spot, friendly service & amazing food. There was an insane guy outside though but that's not La Chilenita's fault

Ça fait une vingtaine d'années que je fréquente la Chilenita & je n'ai jamais commandé un empanada. Pourquoi? Parce que c'est difficile de ne pas commander un Barros Luco. Un des meilleurs sandwichs rapport qualité/prix à Montréal, minces tranches de boeuf, tomates, avocat & leur délicieux fromage sur pain frais. Essayez-le & vous m'en remercierai, c'est un des meilleurs en ajoutant la sauce piquante (qui est plutôt douce). Service timide mais efficace, le local n'a pas particulièrement de charme mais est tapissé ici & là de rappels chiliens. $18 sandwich + Jarritos avec les taxes. P.S.: si vous avez trouvé ce review utile & informatif pour vos choix, s'il vous plaît 🙏 laisser un 👍 en support à l'auteur, merci !

Belle endroit pour aller manger des empanadas fraîche, des sandwichs, désert, churros, café etc etc il y a aussi une belle place dehors avec des tables & chaises pour prendre le soleil & manger à l'extérieur. Place tranquille & très accueillant. Merci à Michel pour être là & faire tout un différence avec la concurrence.

Lovely place with great decor to have a taste of Chile in the artistic neighborhood! Nice staff, we ordered a pack of different empanadas, all good --- go earlier so you can try more delicacies.

La comida estaba muy rica, es un poco complicado de llegar si vas en metro pero vale la pena.
