    Persian tea
    Tiffany D.

    Very nice staff, this is a really cute place. I had the roast beef pizza, persian tea and persian nachos. I really liked the pizza, it reminded me of a roast beef sandwich. There are are call buttons on each table so you don't have to worry about waiting for your server to notice you. It sits on a busy street with a nice view for people watching.

    Mortadella sandwich
    Sahar V.

    The sandwiches and Persian pizza definitely remind me of Iran! The mortadella sandwich was so tasty! It had pistachios in it and the sauce they add is super good. The Persian pizza is incredible. Tastes just like pizza in Iran. Lots of toppings and a nice crust. I've ordered to-go from here a few times and 9 times out of 10 it's been correct. Overall great Persian food spot to hit up!

    Spicy bomb pizza

    Amazing food - try the spicy bomb pizza it was so good and thin and we tried it with the special sauce (garlicky) and ketchup and it made it even better! The service was really friendly and the ambiance is casual but cute!

    The food is amazing and ambiance is quiet average but it was perfect. The pizza roast beef is soooooo good, and the sandwich lord it is soo delicious. The service was quick and easy. The owner is super friendly

    Covid safety measures

    *Currently take-out only but have implemented great safety measure for take-out* At present, they have set up tables at their front door containing the menu, where you just ring the number to order. Love grabbing sandwiches or pizzas from here when I'm in the area. They have a large selection to choose from of unique Persian style sandwiches. I have tried a couple but my favourite has to be their Roast Beef (lots of fresh parsley yum) and their Pizza Sandwich - full of flavour and fresh ingredients. The meat is Halal and service is great. Items are wrapped very well so you can just grab and go. A must to try!

    Restaurant looked completely different from outside. When we walked in we felt we were walking into somebody's home but in a good way. There was a family on the dining table who were enjoying the meal. We were welcome by two very nice people and they seated us. Decor looked fancy but the prices are decent. Food is delicious. Here are 5 reason why we will Absolutely go back when we visit again. 1. We ordered sandwiches and they were delicious. Parsley added great taste to the sandwiches. Bread was perfect for this type of sandwich. 2. We were not too hungry so we ordered one large sandwich which was good enough for two people. We ordered Tea and tea was as delicious. 3. Service was wonderful. They were super nice and accommodating. 4. All meats are halal 5. Their pizzas looked amazing on the menu and in pictures. We really wanted to go back to try it this trip but Montreal offered too many good restaurants and we didn't have a chance to go back. We will be definitely going back to try their pizza next time.

    With all the positive reviews, I honestly expected more from this restaurant. We came here only to try their famous Persian style pizza, but surprisingly, they were out of pizza dough! This was just so unacceptable! We had a few choices from the menu. Their menu was completely different from the one they have on their website. The prices and the number of meals were different. We tried the shredded-beef special sandwich and the pizza sandwich. I loved them both. The shredded-beef sandwich had an exceptional taste. I only ordered the pizza sandwich just to get the taste of their pizzas, which was amazing! P.S: Don't count on the 10% student discount cause they won't give you any!

    Vegetarian 10" vegetarian pizza

    You guys. I have the most endearing story to tell you about Chez Hailar. But just so you know, Chez Hailar is an Iranian restaurant that specializes in halal pizzas and subs with their own "special sauce". I didn't know this but Iranians seem to have their own spin on pizza (they add potato chip sticks and a special sauce on top) and it works! So here's my story: we visited Chez Hailar during #PizzaFest Mtl since I had previously tried it for delivery and loved it. While the food was delicious, the service was very slow. When I think of fast food, I don't think of sitting for 2 hours in a restaurant! It took 25 minutes before we received water. That's unacceptable! It also took a while longer before we received our drinks and pizzas - good thing it was worth the wait! The roast beef pizza is really unique and the vegetarian pizza is full of veggies. That Chez Hailar sauce though - yum. I could down that whole bottle. After another long wait and a failed attempt at getting a waiter's attention, I had to get up and ask for my bill. While that was annoying, the food is stellar. Chez Hailar felt so bad about my negative experience with the service that they sent an employee to apologize to my apartment in person. AND he brought me a freshly baked roast beef pizza. On the inside of the box, they wrote: "Please accept our sincere apologies. We would love to serve you @ChezHailar again." Maybe our last visit was a fluke and we were just unlucky with where we were sitting and how busy the restaurant got. Or maybe as they explained, it's normal as per Iranian customs to not want your customers to feel rushed. Regardless, I'm happy that management took my comments seriously and wanted to rectify the situation. It's rare that a restaurant would go out of their way to apologize face-to-face and send over a piping hot pizza! It's also heart-warming to see how important this family business is to them and I want to support that. Order in and enjoy their perfectly toasted subs and crispy, delicious and halal pizzas. I appreciate that while there's plenty of amazing halal meats available for the subs and pizzas, there's also a lot of vegetarian options. I'm really glad that I gave Chez Hailar a chance and I think you should too!

    The place looks cool
    Bob L.

    For muslims: its all halal! Enjoy! We highly recommend Hailar special pizza (Persian-style pizza) and shredded-beef Hailar special sandwich. Really delicious!

After some time with the menu, and pitchers of water having been delivered to the table, the server came to take our orders, food and drinks together. The appetizers were delivered before most of the drinks, with one guest not receiving their appetizer until the mains were being delivered. The server had a bit of a hard time remembering who had what, but with some direction, everything was delivered eventually. The food was nice. We had the Lahori fried fish, nicely spiced, fish cooked really well. My partner and I shared the Combo 2 with white meat chicken kahari, beef kebab, and garlic naan. The chicken was cooked very well. The curry paste was tasty. The kahari was served in a large metal bowl, very nice touch. I really enjoyed the kebab as well. The naan was factory made, not fresh. That was a bit disappointing. My fraise rose was delicious. My partner had a mango lassi and said it was acceptable but a bit too thick. The meal had a good spice level throughout. The portions are generous and very filling. Good value for money, however the menu does not make it clear that most dishes seem to be intended for sharing. At the end of the meal, it took some time for dessert to come out (included with the meal), and it seems only some people were asked if they wanted tea or coffee, our side of the table was not. Towards the end, the server simply stood at the other end of the table and asked, generally, if anyone wants anything else. The service might have been better on a busier day, but at 1pm on a Sunday, it was lacking a bit, and we felt a little bit like an inconvenience, even though we were the only people there. We would go back, just maybe for an evening date.

This patty topped with a great sauce and the crisp yet soft in the middle bun made it into a perfect burger. I also took a side of poutine, which was great as well. The fries were fresh and crispy, with just the right amount of sauce to melt that cheese. This place is definitely worth the trip if you are craving not only for a burger, but for good food!
