Chez Gatse Restaurant - Montréal

We visited this place as one of our goals on a momo crawl. the momos were delicious and came with a potato plate that made the momos well complicated. the owner did not let us on a small secret the spicy soße of...local in the rule, but he has a secret reserve that he makes that he with those in the know so sure to ask whether they interest the spicy a must with momos in relation to me;

Try the Tibetan noodles! this place is great, minimal, but appropriately decorated. very secret. highly recommended for a unique food experience.

The Yeti combo meal is certainly the best introduction to this pleasing cuisine. All of the dishes display clear clean flavors. Stuffing ingredients retain their individual character unlike many other mushy buns commonly served elsewhere. Mild seasoning can be kicked up a few notches with...chili sauce but take time to appreciate how carefully the dishes are prepared before splashing on the heat. When I asked our server if the chicken soup had been mildly seasoned with Chinese 5 Spice, he took time to explain theirs was a different 3 spice mix. He struggled to come up eith the English names, but we eventually figured it out; star anise, white and Szechuan peppercorns We had similar conversations about the other dishes as well; a real primer for us. They've been around for 25 yrs. No passing fancy here. Give it a try.

The food at this restaurant is top-notch, with a special mention for the momos which are especially delicious. The dishes are flavorful, not overly spicy, and prepared with fresh ingredients. Guests can enjoy their meal in a lovely outdoor garden, adding to the relaxing atmosphere. The service is exceptional as well. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking to try authentic Tibetan cuisine.

Chez Gatse is a Tibetan restaurant located near St. Denis street, offering a nice indoor ambience reminiscent of the Himalayas. There is also a charming outdoor terrace in the back. The menu features reasonably priced items, with momos (Tibetan dumplings) being the standout specialty. Other must-try dishes include the churu soup, tingmo steamed bread, and shapale (minced beef samosa). While the beef shapta was well-prepared, it was not particularly memorable. The hosts are friendly and willing to share stories about Tibetan culture. On the downside, the Lhasa chicken dish is not recommended and parking can be difficult on busy days. Overall, Chez Gatse is a great choice for anyone craving Tibetan food or looking to explore Montreal's diverse cuisine.
