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.

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 🥹

A hidden gem in Montréal! The food feels fresh, nostalgic & homemade. The service was incredibly warm & welcoming. I had the Braised Pork with Rice & Grilled Sausage, & the portions were huge!! It's enough to feed two people! Despite the big portions, I did not feel tired from eating that plate, it was a savory heaven. My friend simply ordered a side of popcorn chicken, & my god was it well seasoned. I've never tasted popcorn chicken this flavorful, though I personally would've liked it just a biiit crispier! The food was also very affordable for a student like me!

We wanted to eat something nice in a winter day after visiting the museum & this place met all the expectations. Delicious comfort home made food with great ambiance & service. We tried the black pepper beef & the satay chicken & both were delicious
