Cones salmon, tartare, and beef tartar
Tina L.

What a great experience tonight thank you very much to Nelly and Cooper who actually gave us an excellent service. The food was amazing. The drinks were beyond great. I would refer this place anytime of the week. Peruvian food gave a new taste to my pallet The ambiance was super great, relax super friendly really enjoyed it. I would go there any day of the week again reasonable priced we were four people all had drinks shared some meals and had appetizers for approximately 250.$ tip included

I truly enjoyed my dining experience here during my work trip in Montréal. I would not have chosen this place on my own but my coworker selected this restaurant for dinner and I was content with my food. There was booth seating with a nice mellow vibe for the dining experience. Chifa is a Peruvian that offer a tapas. They were heavy on the seafood options which is usually great for me but I was pushed outside of my comfort zone with my meal. I was pleasantly surprised at how I enjoyed my meal although again I wouldn't have selected them in my own.

Good grub

Good food , decent service. Standard restaurant decor. Hits the spot. If you like Peruvian food this is an elevated experience. Definitely not traditional not even in the chufa sense. This is a spot your should try.

Chinese and Peruvian fusion. That makes for interesting dishes. But it also diminishes the rich flavors of each cuisine rather than marrying them. The atmosphere is nice, a bit loud.

Super nice place and atmosphere. Food was good, not great. Service was really good but was disappointed when I asked for a table instead of being sat at the bar and still got sat at the bar when the restaurant was pretty much empty.

Chow Mein Especial
Esther A.

Friendly staff, cool decor, great vibe for a night out. My order of the chow mein, was super delicious and the perfect amount of food.

Jalapina

Another great find in the Rene-Levesque/de Bleury area. I went to their sister restaurant - Tiradito down the street a few years back and remember it being good. Chifa is Peruvian/Chinese fusion vs Peruvian/Japanese at Tiradito. Open very late (2am) so great for late night bite or hanging out for drinks. Food/Drink was excellent - (5/5): All food is tapas style plates and portions are definitely on the smaller side as someone mentioned. Consider it one plate per person or light share for two. - Antichucho de pulpo (octopus) - really good - tender and seasoned nicely with a pepper glaze sauce. - Ceviche Chino/Latino - really good - fresh fish - think mine was halibut and yellowtail, with perfect marination. - Lomo Saltado -pretty good - beef was tender and nice glaze flavour. - Jalapina - was really refreshing and just the right balance. Service was good - servers were friendly and pretty attentive - (4/5) Atmosphere - very cool - darker intimate, small tables or bar sections to eat or drink, vibey music in background with choices for indoor tables, birdcage table for two, bar and outdoor patio. Really nicely decorated with vibey music in the background. Spaced out well and not too loud. - (4.5/5) Overall... definite repeat to try out more items. Recommend for late night snack/drinks.

I came here for dinner on a Thursday and was able to get last-minute reservations online 15-30 mins before when I wanted to go later that evening. The vibe is elegant but casual. Most of the seating are barstools (so ladies, dress appropriately). They have a semi-open kitchen concept and you walk right by the wok when you walk in. It's pretty cool, but you could walk out smelling like food too. The food is delicious. I like how they dyed the causa (which is potatoes) with black dye to match their brand. The lomo saltado was amazing, so much flavor and pairs perfectly with rice.

Skewers (duck heart, beef, chicken and mushroom)

In town for jazz festival and we were finally able to have an early dinner here (it was fully booked last year when we were in town). Since we didn't have reservations we sat at the counter. We ordered the loma saltado and the combo chifero (4 skewers -king mushroom, chicken, beef and suck heart). Both dishes were delicious. Portions are like tapas size as well as the silverware. We'll probably have room for dessert elsewhere but we didn't want any leftovers so we did not over order.

This is one place you cannot miss when in Montreal! The food and ambiance is outstanding.. You cannot say you visited Montreal without visiting Chifa! Well done guys ! Thank you for a wonderful experience

Pollo chi jau kai
Todd B.

Pro-tip: Only go here if you want to over pay for small portions which are under flavored. Value: 2* Price: 1* Service: 3* Location: 4* A party of 4 of us sat outside. We ordered Chino - Latino, Pollo chi jau kai, siu mai, and the combo chifero. The Chino - Latino should just be called an appetizer and not a main course. The combo chiefro was 4 skewers in total, one each of: chicken, heart, liver, and mushroom. The chicken was the best, but the liver and heart were too, mushroom was meh. They were all in a sweet sauce, pass. Pollo chi jau ka, was good, albeit sweet. The siu mai were great. The waitress said all dishes were made for sharing. Impossible, they were all so small they weren't even enough for a meal. We ordered 2 bowls of rice. They were $4 each....for rice. So, caveat emptor. I would not return.

Lomo saltado
Kathy C.

The lomo saltado was spectacular. The portion was a bit smaller than I am used to. The flavors and filet texture was 10/10 for me! I would definitely recommend this place. The service was lacking but the food was on point! My friend ordered a lomo saltado and loved it too! My other friend ordered chicharron marino (fried calamari) and absolutely loved it too!

Food was delicious. A cross between Peruvian and Asian dishes. Cocktails were delicious. Service was slow.

Rosemont-La Petite-Patrie

Came here with a friend who is a Peru-o-file and really enjoyed it…read more We started with boiled potato in a spicy sauce and that was great. I had the spicy shrimp stew. It was nice and spicy and the portion was generous. The shrimp, though numerous, were a little rubbery. Service was friendly. If you like Peruvian food, this is the place for you.

Went here with my family for my birthday and we ordered family size trays. It was all good, I mean…read moreit was like it's supposed to be, typical Peruvian sea food restaurant with cancha (courtesy of the house) and here's the "catch" (get it?) the fish is actually Peruvian as well, as in they caught in the Pacific Ocean, from what I've heard. You might think, why do they do that, that's not fresh... Well, the fish there are more flavourful, bigger and just all-around better in quality (for the kind of fish that are used on those dishes, like if they needed salmon I'm sure they would just use the local ones). They had good prices and were really accommodating (considering there were a handful of kids around), it's probably a good place to go in groups. We had ceviche, jalea and other sea food from the menu (I mean, it has a Nautical theme going on so how could I not), but the real MVP was the lúcuma mousse dessert. So, so, so good, lúcuma is my favourite fruit and I had yet to go to a place where I found a lúcuma dessert that was worth it (*cough cough* Mochica) and this one is! I've moved really close to it so expect to see my face here more often. Looking forward to try that Leche de Tigre on hungover days!
