We loved everything about this meal. Walked in & immediately seated for a week day lunch. We ordered pork belly, beef & broccoli, salt & pepper fish, & beef sautay. The food was so tasty, we will recommend to everyone. Feigang Fei (owner) was personable & made great food recommendations. Lovely overall experience.

Any time I am in Montreal, I order take out from here to my hotel. My most recent was on Monday where I ordered hot pepper with beef, salt & pepper fish fillet & seasonal vegetables in garlic sauce. Great dishes & generous portions. My daughter & boyfriend even had some & was more than enough for 3.
Me & 7 of my coworkers went for lunch. We shared the eggplant, kung pao chicken, cantonese noodles, spare ribs, cumin beef, twice cooked pork, & mapo tofu; they were all good!
Food, service, & atmosphere were 5 stars. Got the beef & broccoli + pork & shrimp fried rice, both were great, but the beef & broccoli exceeded all expectations. Prices were very good as well
Very good food in town, very reasonable price considering the downtown location. liked dry fried greenbeans, sweet & spicy eggplant, & broccoli with beef very much, not so much on the cumin beef & noodle salad though.

The food is amazing here! Very authentic, tasty Chinese food with great portions. I've been twice & both times have been consistent, no matter what you order. The beef & broccoli has a light savoury flavour, & is not greasy at all with lots of crunchy fresh broccoli. The stir fried pork intestines come with onions, spicy green pepper, onions & carrots, & has a great spicy seasonings with numby peppercorns. The intestines are cooked & cleaned very well, no stinky flavours at all. The braised pork belly is always tender & flavourful, & the sweet potato noodles soak up the sauce very nicely. Each bowl of rice is only $1.50! All in all, very tasty & generous portions at affordable prices. Each dish ranges from $10-20 (even the seafood). Highly recommended, great for sharing dishes & family friendly environment.
General Tao was good (not the best I have had but still quite good). The cumin beef was ok, but I wasn't blow away with a taste nor with their sour soup. The place was almost empty on Friday 8pm, which was a bit strange & didn't create a great vibe exactly.
I've eaten at Aunt Dai at least 25 times in the past 6 years or so. There are dishes I keep coming back to, like the excellent cumin beef, the spicy shrimps, the kung pao chicken & mapo tofu. In the past, everything was consistently delicious. But in the past two years or so, it has changed a bit. The grilled calamari, which used to be one of their best dishes, is now a total disappointment & has nothing to do with what it used to be. The last time we went, the mapo tofu was bland & uninteresting, while it was exceptional the time before that. My son chose the Singapour noodles, because he's used to eating them at home & he likes to eat what he knows. Frankly, they were barely edible; they were oversalted & bland & the noodles were way overcooked. We know that it's not an authentic Chinese dish & a little more on the bland side, but there still is the possibility to cook a nice version of it. So all in all, I used to be very confident in the dishes I ordered at Aunt Dai, but now, when I go, I'm always a bit worried that the dishes I order won't be as good as usual. Some effort should be put in making sure the different cooks deliver the same flavors.

Just do yourself a favour & literally order everything lol Cumin beef OMG General tao WOW The eggplant is great We were a big group & the service was amazing & all the food was perfectly timed, good job to everyone & see you again for sure!
Really disappointed after reading such stellar reviews. Won ton soup was mid, weird taste I couldn't put my finger on, rolls were tiny, fried rice was bland, Singapour noodles were ok, not very curryish, & ginger beef was also bland. Overall, for a 95$ tab, nothing really stood out & would not eat again.
A cozy place with delicious food & a friendly waiter. The hot & sour soup was lacking a bit of the tangy/sour element but the cumin beef & eggplant with potato were amazing. I can't wait to go back & plan to try the mapo tofu.

Excellent food, the general Tao is the best I’ve tasted. Recommend the beef with hot peppers & the salt & pepper shrimp. Great selection & prices. Service is very good. A must try
