Chinese Asian Fusion Dumplings Gluten-free Options

Review Summary

Reviewers describe Restaurant Rizière as a compact, stylish spot with a lively, welcoming atmosphere and a menu that blends Cantonese and Szechuan influences with inventive flair. Be it beef noodle soup, chow mein, or creative noodle dishes, the noodles are praised for their chew, the broths for depth, and first bites for excitement, while dishes like salmon are noted for visual impact and distinctive flavor though the sauce can feel a touch salty.

Sushi Japanese Asian Vietnamese Dumplings Bubble Tea

Review Summary

Overall, reviews of La Riziere d'Asie present a mixed picture with some disappointment about sushi being unavailable despite calls to confirm and inconsistent kitchen timing, while others praise fresh flavors, variety and reasonable prices when service runs smoothly. The atmosphere is described as clean and pleasant, and the option to bring wine is appreciated by guests.

Châteauguay

Sushi Japanese Vietnamese Asian Dumplings Bubble Tea

Review Summary

Overall, Rizière D'Asie Express receives praise for chicken teriyaki and a great General Tao, with excellent service and an ambiance some reviewers describe as top notch, and there are mentions of good sushi. However, comparisons to the Châteauguay location reveal a noticeable difference in dish quality, with a takeout combo of chicken and grilled beef described as tasteless and very dry, and with substantially less meat than expected. Counter service is very fast, yet first-time visitors express doubt about returning. Flavor is good but portions are clearly insufficient for the price and the chicken nearly absent from the chicken with rice dish. Takeout orders such as grilled beef and chicken with vermicelli and shrimp with crispy noodles are reported, along with a won ton soup containing a fruit fly, leaving some disappointed by value. Long-time patrons of the other location are sometimes willing to drive there for better quality, while others at this location are not convinced to return.View restaurant profile
