Review Summary

Cuisine Formosa is often described as a friendly and convenient local spot for authentic Taiwanese cuisine, though experiences regarding food presentation and beverage quality vary significantly. While many patrons praise the delicious dishes and reasonable prices, some have noted discrepancies between menu images and served portions, particularly concerning the preparation of pork and milk tea. Despite mixed feedback on specific items like boba consistency and tea strength, the restaurant remains a popular choice for those seeking a casual and welcoming environment for flavorful Asian meals.

Great little restaurant with authentic Chinese cuisines. Rice covered with pork & eggs in addition to a full bowl of rib soup were absolute delicacies. Great staff.

Really amazing beef noodle soup. The popcorn chicken is also authentic. Flavor is real Taiwanese. I'm happy with what I find there. I've been an expat since the age of 16, rarely I find real Taiwanese food overseas, so this touches me 🥹

They have some Taiwanese dishes that are hard to find in Montreal. I'm really glad they have fried pork cutlet, braised pork chop & pork bone herbal soup...etc. The fried pork cutlet is superb with its authentic taste. Just wish the portion of vegetables was bigger & there was more sauce on the rice. The owner is really nice! Can't wait to try other dishes :)
