Review Summary

MAKAO is a popular Chinatown destination known for its stylish decor, cozy lounge atmosphere, and consistently impressive cocktails. While the restaurant receives significant praise for its attentive and friendly service, guest experiences regarding the food are mixed; many diners find the dishes flavorful and beautifully presented, while others feel certain menu items lack depth or consistency for the price. Despite some feedback about portion sizes or specific dish preparation, the overall vibe and professional staff make it a highly recommended spot for dates, special occasions, and social gatherings.

On a partager quelques entrées, les baos buns étaient ordinaires, les côtes levées excellentes ainsi que les dumplings au poulet & kimchi.

Par la suite nous avons prit le surf & turf, la cuisson était bien, mais la qualité pas top.

Wish I could give this place 0 stars. Worst experience i've ever had in Montreal!
Reserved in advance, & got put in a corner with no lights ,hidden from the public & table the size of a 20inch tv. I dont understand why that table is even there, or how could a restaurant allow a seating that small you would eat so uncomfortably. Not only was the table bad, but there were so many good tables available, we asked for a better seat & the waitress straight up lied in our face, as two people of color, this is not random. We were victims of this restaurant's & its staff's racism.My partner & I disappointed in makao decided to go to chez Chilli, just a little further & were well greeted, treated with respect & kindness in this Asian restaurant actually ran by Asian people, the food was great & our night was saved! Makao is an immoral business. It is a beacon of gentrification & should not be supported.

Décoré très agréable, juste ça ce qui est bien dans ce resto. En gros les assiettes ont une belle présentation mais pas ce qui y a dedans. Ça vaut pas le prix. C'est une cuisine chinois ordinaire. Les publicités sur des réseaux sont trop bien faite, ne représente pas la réalité.pour les boissons les prix sont EXAGÉRÉ! Une verre de vin 15$. Une bouteille qui vaut 15$ à SAQ ils vendent à 58$!
Ils ont fait un spécial pour les huîtres mais avec un repas & un verre ne vaut vraiment pas la peine. Vaut mieux aller dans les restaurants voisines .
La serveuse avait oublié ma deuxième commande meme après deux demandes.
Ainsi pendant le payement, elle devait revenir avec échange, & c'était encore à moi d'aller chercher l'échange qu'elle me devait. C'est pas très agréable de demandait les gens de faire leur travail.
