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.

A note mentions morning opening hours as a worker arrives to open.

Pâtisserie Harmonie offers a wide range of pastries in a small, lively space with a self service concept that lets customers fill their displays with what they crave. Reviews emphasize freshness and variety, blending traditional pastries with a strong Asian selection and highlighting many items that are still warm and flavorful. Mochi are described as vegan and coconut milk based, generally tasty, though a few tasters find them a bit bland, while other pastries are praised for generous fillings and appealing textures. The overall value is frequently noted, with affordable prices and quick service making it a reliable stop for locals and visitors in the Chinatown area. A few drawbacks appear, such as a busy crowd that makes the place feel hectic at peak times, and occasional items that could benefit from a little longer cooking, as well as a beverage that loses its slushiness quickly. Nevertheless, the assortment of buns, donuts, red bean treats, green tea flavors, and other specialties inspires repeat visits, and many reviewers describe the experience as worth the trip.View restaurant profile

Review Summary

Reviews describe Sushi Shoten as a place with consistently fresh, flavorful sushi, excellent nigiri and maki, and careful presentation, backed by friendly, knowledgeable service. The atmosphere is often cozy and clean, with attentive staff and a welcoming feel for both dine in and takeout. Some comments note high prices for what is offered, though the quality is frequently described as outstanding and worth it. A few criticisms mention that tuna could be fresher or that one roll was missing listed ingredients, but these are outweighed by compliments on freshness, texture, and variety. The menu also includes strong non sushi options like banh mi and miso soup, which receive praise from several reviewers. Overall Sushi Shoten is viewed as a reliable go to for sushi lovers, with consistent quality, nice plating, and a service level that keeps customers returning.View restaurant profile
