Nous sommes allés dans ce resto asiatique avant un spectacle. La nourriture était très bonne. Les calmars sont plutôt génériques, mais le général Tao était hors du commun! Service rapide & très courtois! Belle découverte!

J'étais une grande adepte mais je trouve que la cuisine a perdu dans sa qualité.

Endroit sympa pour manger à un prix démocratique. Possibilité de prendre sa (ou ses) bouteille de vin sans droit de bouchon! Service impeccable.

As other commenter mentioned, I feel bit bad for posting a low rating but the food was truly underwhelming & not too fresh. The carrots used in my dish were objectively past their expiration date... Also the dishes are underwhelming, especially compared to what Vietnamese restaurants offer in Montreal nowadays. The room also smells a bit off (probably due to seats made of fabric & humans sitting on them for years), but you get used to it after 20 minutes or so. The staff was VERY friendly though. BYOW is also nice.

Juste avant d'aller à un spectacle à l'Olympia, nous avons fait une belle découverte dans le village, à quelques pas de notre stationnement & de la salle de spectacle. En entrée, j'ai choisi les dumplings & mon copain, les calmars saigonnais. Les dumplings, accompagnés d'une sauce aux arachides & d'une sauce vietnamienne (probablement à base de sauce soya sucrée & de nuoc-mam), étaient délicieux & bien croustillants. Les calmars étaient cuits à la perfection & nappés de cette savoureuse sauce vietnamienne. Nous avons tous les deux opté pour le général tao, accompagné de vermicelles pour moi & de riz pour mon copain. Nous n'avons pas laissé une seule bouchée! La cuisson des vermicelles, du riz & des légumes était parfaite également. Le poulet était croustillant & la sauce à se rouler par terre. J'ai pris mon petit biscuit pour apportez tellement mon estomac était plus que satisfait. Les prix sont abordables, le personnel fort sympathique & l'emplacement convenait parfaitement à nos besoins. Le service aux tables était brillamment orchestré & nos assiettes étaient debarassées très rapidement. Nous y retournerons certainement.
