Flamme du Sichuan is widely considered one of the most authentic Sichuan restaurants in Montreal, offering a vibrant, immersive atmosphere that transports diners to the streets of Chengdu. Many visitors praise the generous portions and the bold, complex flavors of traditional dishes like spicy boiled fish, mapo tofu, and crispy pork, which feature an impressive balance of heat and fragrance. While the menu is geared toward those who enjoy high levels of spice, guests appreciate the flexibility of the staff to adjust heat levels and provide helpful recommendations. The service is frequently highlighted as a standout feature, with attentive, professional team members often going above and beyond to ensure a memorable experience. Although the restaurant is very popular and wait times can be significant, the consensus is that the high-quality, flavorful food and unique, welcoming decor make it a must-visit destination for those seeking a genuine and memorable culinary adventure.

Bon restaurant quand le service suit… Une fois à table, on a malheureusement été oubliés. Après 30 minutes sans que personne ne vienne prendre notre commande, nous sommes finalement partis.

I've been here a couple of times but I'm sorry to say the food was very very disappointing. The tofu & sour fish was extremely salty. The rice was cold & undercooked & the worse dish we had was the vegetable dish. It was like they dumped the bag of vegetable right into the Wok without picking out the old leaves.

At gourmet food lover's recommendation I finally went to this restaurant. My friend suggested on reservation & I'm glad I did, therefore bypass the waiting line.
As soon as we entered the restaurant we smelled the spicy in the air. The restaurant serves surprisingly authentic Sichuan food. Love it.
