I have been to Chili many times over the years. I go solo, with friends and family or romantic dates. Food is always phenomenal. Last week I went for my birthday and although we had to wait a little passed our reservation time for another party to finish. Jonathan and the other servers made it up to us with a lovely birthday treat! Chocolate mousse with a sparkler and then this sesame ball sake thing, it was delicious! They also give you a Polaroid picture which is such a sweet sentimental keepsake. They outdid it once again food was phenomenal and that’s why I keep going back! 100/10 for the cumin lamb but it is spicy if you can’t handle it. I ordered another one to go to enjoy at home. 10/10 for the red fish stew also spicy. 10/10 duck fried rice it’s so flavourful 10/10 bok choy simple and still crispy. 9/10 for the crispy vegetables it was my first time trying this one. A little too much salt for my liking but my friends didn’t have an issue. 10/10 Truffle beef was tender and delicious my friends had to order another one.

Ambiance (5/5): Feels sleek and elevated in here. The aroma of the dishes permeated the room that made my tummy rumble with excitement!! Service (5/5): We were attended to from beginning to end. The food came out lightening fast, like within 10 minutes! Food: Pro tip – look at their online menu on their website because it has pictures of the dishes! Dan Dan noodles (4/5): Great taste but there was nothing to write home about. Soup Dumplings (4/5): The server advised us that the order would take at least 15min to cook as a heads up! The dish was very good. Well we accidentally ordered two dishes with similar flavor profiles (our fault). Both of which are very flavorful and spicy! Spicy Cumin Lamb (5/5): Very flavorful but be careful to those that can’t handle spicy! Sautéed Beef with Pickled Chili (5/5): The beef was so tender! Definitely preferred this one over the lamb dish.

This was our second time to eat at Chili, and we loved just as much. We ordered the Mouthwatering Chicken, Poached Okra, Shredded Mushrooms with Green Chili, and Kung Fu Shrimp. Everything was original and delicious. My favorite was the shrimp - I had never experienced anything like it before. Spicy without unbearable heat. We will definitely dine at Chili when we return to the city. Try new dishes each time. Taste adventure!
