“Great place for Chinese fondue. The laksa broth is delicious and flavorful! Lots of choice of proteins and vegetables in the “all you can eat” formula, good quality products too. There are also noodles, dumplings, dumplings and tofu in the choices. Bar for sauces, salads and desserts. There is a choice of table with individual broths or with larger broths with separators. Note that the time to eat is two hours. Only downside: almost all interactions are in English, more French would be appreciated! Excellent quality & quantity/price ratio, to try if you like Asian dishes!“

“Inside of the restaurant is small but the dumplings are amazing. If ever you're passing by st Catherine and you see that there's no line up to eat here please do yourself a favor and get in right away. Line up builds up really fast at this restaurant and deservingly so.“

“I watched a chef from a Michelin-starred restaurant on YouTube say he couldn't POSSIBLY produce enough hand-made pasts to satisfy all his demand. The next afternoon, I was at this place watching a very young and VERY talented young man crank out absolutely beautiful noodles á la minute for an entire packed dining room. Phenomenal food, eat here.“

“As I am a soup dumpling or XLB connoisseur that has sought out these delicious treasures across the United States and internationally, these were a delight. So much more variety than your standard XLB restaurant and only 2/3 the cost. If you have a chance, you should go here.“

“Come for the beef noodle soup for quite literally a warm hug in a bowl. The handmade noodles are tender and springy, melt in your mouth beef, and the pickled vegetable cuts down on the beefy soup. The atmosphere is warm and relaxing, tea is of good quality, and the staff is friendly. Don’t expect fast food levels of speed, the food here is made to order. So sit back, relax, and enjoy a cup of warm tea while your warm hug in a bowl is prepared :)“

“This place is so unassuming and yet what a treasure! I have food sensitivities and allergies and I have been able to eat quite a few of their dishes.Their egg and vegetable fried rice is ?and the boiled fish in spicy chili oil is delicious. The salt and pepper tofu is another favorite.They were able to accommodate gluten-free and other allergies requests easily.We went back twice in one week after finding the spot. And now just placed orders through uber eats. Needless to say, we are hooked to their delicious food.“

“We went this evening with 13 people and we all loved it. Having been in China for several months, this is the closest thing, and I have tried many Chinese restaurants in Montreal. Absolutely delicious!Vegetarian options: Lots of tofu and vegetable dishes. Their salt and pepper tofu is excellent! Di San Xian is also perfect.“

“After several unsuccessful attempts, we finally found the flavors of the Orchid de China restaurant which was located on Peel and closed for several years. Our favorite dishes (Dumplings with peanut butter sauce, Szechuan-style sautéed shrimp, fish with lemon sauce, chicken with crispy spinach, not to mention the mocha ice cream cake) are just as delicious as in the old times...Lovers of Szechuan cuisine, don't miss this.“

“We stopped by this place on the way home, I’ll just say the dumplings are 10/10 very tasty, we took number 3 and number 8. I can’t say anything about the service, because it was takeaway. The interior, for my taste, is not very good, because it is a converted typical Montreal apartment, on the first floor of a duplex, and let’s say I wouldn’t go there on a date or with my family, but there are those who like it, so I think the main thing is the food, I’ll come also, thank you ?☺️“

“The seafood was incredibly fresh, the presentation of all dishes beautiful and our server, Yin, was helpful and attentive. Our daughter has a peanut allergy and she was really great about going over ingredients with us. It was a great place to grab a quieter (maybe not well know, YET) dinner and still have fabulous food.“

“It was the first time I tasted food from this part of the world. I had no expectations, but from the first bite I was blown away. It was so delicious. To be honest, I can say that the dish I ate, the spicy chicken stir fry, is probably in the top 10 best dishes I have eaten in my life. The stir-fried noodles with lamb were also very, very good. The dishes are very tasty and the presence of Sichuan pepper amplifies the flavors to the maximum. The portions are very generous. The service is correct and the decor immerses us in Uyghur culture. These are Asian dishes from the Muslim community in China, but they are also very common in China in general. The staff is very chatty to answer your questions, parking is easy and free, and of course, everything is halal. I have read a few other very negative reviews, but for my part I cannot deny that I loved trying this cuisine, and I invite you to give it a try, it is definitely worth it. Enjoy your food!“

“great place to take your white friends and feel a bit culturally superior to them but then feel a profound sadness when they watch you eat a soup dumpling so they know how to 'do it right.' i dont understand what tiktok has done to people its just a soup dumpling just dont be an idiot about it. anyways i always walk away from sammi and soupe with both my stomach and my wallet full. reminds me of a simpler time before i became friends with white people.“

“I love Beijing Dumpling and I like to go there often. Their soupy dumplings are next level! They stop the dine-in facility after 8:30ish pm and only allow take out but if you see on maps, it shows that they are open till 9:30pm which is technically true but you can’t sit there and eat and enjoy :(“

“Small quaint restaurant with no frills. Sechuan dumplings were 10/10, the laksa I'd say 9/10. Next time more dumplings ? my mom got the braised salmon and it was insane. ??Vegetarian options: There were lots of vegetarian options, most dishes come with tofu as an option, as well as 2 choices of veggie dumplings ?“

“If there was a place on earth where I would be eating my last meal this is it. The beef noodle soup was so good I was willing to sell my car and move into the car park just so I could eat this every day. The spicy chili oil is incredible. My tongue was functional however I was sweating / glowing profusely. Amazing place!“

“Love this place so much! I went here with my family and it was so good. I got M9 with the pork and my family got beef and soup. Personally, I love the pork. It was the best dish ever and my whole family wanted MY pork instead of ordering their own. That goes to show how good it is. When you are going to dine in or do take out, get the pork“

“J'ai visité ce restaurant sans aucune attente pour un diner alors que j'étais dans le coin. Quelle découverte! J'ai pris une soupe avec du porc, suggérée par la serveuse (qui était super gentille et nous conseillait vraiment bien). Le porc était si tendre que je le coupais avec mes baguettes. La souper était tellement gouteuse. Des saveurs que je n'avais jamais expérimentées et tout cela dans un petit resto super sympathique. Les prix sont plus que raisonnables. Honnêtement, j'ai juste hâte de retourner dans le coin pour y manger à nouveau et essayer d'autres plats sur leur menu. Une superbe découverte. Dommage que j'habite aussi loin! ;)“

“Amazing dumplings!I ordered #2, #6, and #19 and they were all amazing. The flavour of the chicken curry dumpling (#6) is what stood out from all that I’ve ordered.Dumplings had a good size, texture, and definitely taste. I am sure that I will go back here the next time I’m in town.“

“Compact, tucked away wonton shop with some of the best wonton soup in downtown! Spice level of their spicy wonton is perfect, hearty and fresh, perfect for winter.Tables and chairs are clean and plain, but the cracked walls and storage boxes in the corner make it seem a little worse for wear. But what it lacks in atmosphere it makes up for in taste! Servings contain around 8 wonton but feels like more with how big each are! Highly recommend for a snack or light lunch in between classes or errands!“

“I love this place so much, I try to go once a week to encourage their business because it is definitely a hidden gem in Verdun. Super authentic tasting Chinese cuisine.I recommend the Lanzhou noodle soup. It has a nice spice level and the broth is full of flavor. The noodles are freshly made to order if you add an egg as an extra it's a good move... Trust me. I also love the chow mein with shrimp and porc. The porc flavor is sublime and the sauce in the chow mein with the assorted veggies are delicious. I love their pickled radish salad too. Any fans of marinated starters should try this.The price point is super reasonable for the quantity that you receive too. This place is a must try. The ambience is simple and humble inside. Not loud at all.“

“Very good dumplings! But they're often out of the vegan options! Also I ordered the vegan "pizza" option and they put cheese on it, dairy cheese, and a good thing I doubled checked and ask because they indeed put real cheese... Odd since it's explicitly written vegan. Anyways, for the rest, I love their tofu dumplings they're the best in town in my opinion!!! Also I recommend the peanut butter noodles soooo yummy! I recommend this place for great dumplings!“

“Cash only $$ - this place has been around for many years. Inflation seems to not have affect the place at all.The owner is working pretty much alone, don't expect a super fast food service. You go there because its cheap, belly filling and good.The noodles are okay but it would have cost the same to do it at home.Service is friendly and polite. A small taste of streetfood of Asia.“

“I've been frequenting the Noodle Factory off and on for years, drawn repeatedly by its straightforward charm and delectable offerings. Nestled in the heart of Montreal's vibrant Chinatown, this no-frills eatery has carved out a niche for itself, serving up tasty dishes at an unbeatable value.Upon entering, one can't help but notice the restaurant's modest dimensions. The space is somewhat cramped, a testament to its bustling activity rather than any lack of foresight. While not expansive, the setting is adequate, fostering a cozy atmosphere that puts the focus squarely on the food. The staff, adhering to the establishment's no-frills approach, provide the basic level of service necessary to facilitate your meal. This minimalist approach to service underscores the restaurant's commitment to offering a low-cost dining experience, prioritizing the quality and affordability of the food above all else.However, it's important to note that the Noodle Factory may not be accessible to everyone, as it currently does not provide wheelchair access due to the absence of a ramp. This limitation is a significant oversight that the establishment should address to welcome a broader clientele.The menu at Noodle Factory stands out for its generous portion sizes that leave customers satisfied. The dishes, while simple, are prepared in a way that brings out a richness of flavor, ensuring a delightful dining experience. The cost of dining here is surprisingly low, making it a go-to spot for those seeking a satisfying meal without breaking the bank.Be mindful that the restaurant operates on a cash-only basis. While this may require a bit of planning ahead, the dining rewards are well worth this minor inconvenience.In sum, the Noodle Factory stands as a testament to the simple pleasure of good food served without pretense. While it may benefit from a few logistical improvements, its commitment to providing a cost-effective dining experience, alongside the satisfying culinary offerings, ensures its place as a beloved fixture in Montreal's dining scene. Whether you're a long-time patron or a curious newcomer, the Noodle Factory promises a dining experience that's both satisfying and memorable, all while keeping your wallet happy.“

“We went off hours, but the place was still packed. There was one person working the front - he was the waiter, cashier, bus boy, and everything else. It was impressive to watch. Then food came very quickly. And it was one of the best dumplings we have ever had.“

“We heard a lot about this place and needed tl try it for ourselves. Ordered the chicken dumplings, lamb cumin broad noodles and Three in One oil spilled noodles. The dumplings were good, nothing outstanding but a good appetizer, the lamb cumin noodles were good too but the Three in One was my favorite, an explosion of flavor and spicy like I like. Got there on a tuesday evening and the place was empty. Service was a little slow and the waitress did not attend our table, we had to get our cutlery and sauces ourselves. That was the only downside.“

“Hole in the wall place, almost literally. They only take cash or e-transfer (not sure what that is honestly). There are two menus, one for meat and one for meals with rice. I opted for a two meat combo with crispy pork and crispy duck (which added $2 to my bill, alongside rice and a few pieces of marinated cabbage. The restaurant itself is so small that there aren't any tables or chairs so I got it to go, went back to my hotel, and enjoyed a delicious meal. After a roughly 20 minute ride back to my hotel, the skin on the meat was still crispy and everything was still warm. The meat was moist and flavorful with the perfect amount of both sweet and savory with quite the pronounced hint of Chinese five-spice. The meal is incredibly simple but done very well. The restaurant is a bit of a shock upon first glance but the staff are incredibly kind.“

There are few restaurants left that serve such quality of service and food with owners that are present and want you to feel at home and special like this one. Definitely a must go and will come back soon.“

“They offer a wide selection of choice, the mala based soup is a bit spicy but not overpowering the other flavors. The only downside is two of the vegetables I picked had a sour taste even though they just brought them to the shelf while I picked my ingredients. I understand it’s hard to make sure everything is 100% fresh, but that one or two items that are not ruin the whole experience. Better quality control needed for sure.“

“Restaurant Ding-Xiang: A gem in Montreal's ChinatownIf you're on the hunt for authentic Chinese street food in the heart of Montreal's Chinatown, look no further than Restaurant Ding-Xiang. This cozy takeout joint may be small, accommodating only two clients at a time, but the flavors it offers are anything but diminutive.Upon stepping inside, you're immediately greeted by the enticing aroma of spices and grilled meat that permeates the air. It sets the stage for a delightful culinary adventure.During our visit, we indulged in a selection of delectable dishes, including the mouthwatering Chinese crêpe, flavorful beef skewers, tender squid tentacles, and delicious fried steam buns—all for a surprisingly reasonable price of $22. The chili spice used as a dry rub was a unique touch, and while I appreciated the preference for dry rub over oil, I must admit, I'd have preferred a bit more heat. For those who crave fiery food, a bolder chili kick would be a welcomed addition.Restaurant Ding-Xiang proudly offers tapas-sized portions, and they live up to their promise in delivering satisfying flavors despite the smaller servings.It's worth noting that the restaurant is not wheelchair accessible. However, due to its intimate size, it wouldn't be difficult to get the attention of the attentive staff even from the entrance, should assistance be required.Overall, our experience at Restaurant Ding-Xiang was delightful. The flavors and aromas took us on a culinary journey, and the reasonable prices left us content. The taste of their street food is enough to entice me to return for more. If you're a fan of authentic Chinese street cuisine, Ding-Xiang should be on your must-visit list.Vegetarian options: There are multiple vegetarian options available at reasonable prices.Kid-friendliness: The tapas portion will appeal to all ages.“

“Excellent service and excellent food. We loved the salad/dessert and soup bar. It adds a plus to this type of à la carte buffet restaurant. We appreciated that there were two options for dinner. Depending on your hunger, you can have the salad bar - dessert / soup as well as rice and two items (or 1 for children).The service was excellent, I was informed when it was very hot, when it was spicy for my daughter... we brought a pitcher of water at the start.Only problem. One of the TVs had TVA sports. But this afternoon it was a hunting show, not very interesting when eating. Otherwise it was perfect, clean and a very fair price. Plus it’s bring your own wine. We live far away but we will come back if we return to the area.Vegetarian options: Salads and some vegetable dishes. But nothing seen with tofu (lunch in tk).Kid-friendliness: 2 choices of children's menus $9 or $10.50 (all you can eat) both include the salad/soup/dessert bar so my daughter was delighted!“
