Restaurant Fung Shing, located Just below the big gate on St-Laurent that marks the entrance to the upper area of Chinatown, offers Sichuan and Cantonese cuisine. Specialties: General Tao chicken, The Fung Shing Crispy Fried Chicken, Cantonese chow mein and dim sum. Also to try at Fung Shing are the Braised Shrimp Balls and Peking Hot Soup.
Fung Shing is recognized for consistent quality, with wonton soup and spicy beef dishes among the favorites, along with crispy duck and generously portioned plates that make it a reliable choice for families and larger groups; the service is often described as friendly and attentive, the atmosphere warm and casual, and the prices fair for the area, with guests praising authentic flavors, well balanced garlic and ginger notes, and a menu that ranges from dumplings and spring rolls to beef, pork, seafood and vegetable dishes that arrive hot and flavorful; many reviews call it a Montreal classic with a long history and a welcoming staff, while others highlight speedy service and a comfortable setting that feels both traditional and expressive, leading to frequent recommendations and plans to return.
Fung Shing has been serving the community for 50 years, & I can't help but feel a little envious of Montrealers for having such a historic Chinese restaurant. The food is amazing & the service feels so friendly & welcoming. I saw many customers talking with the servers like old friends-clearly longtime regulars who have been coming here since they were kids.
It's more than just a restaurant; it's part of the city's dining culture. I was genuinely moved by the experience.
What an amazing dining experience! We visited as two couples & were impressed by every dish we tried - especially the appetizers & sides. The restaurant was lively, creating a great atmosphere. The staff were extremely polite, helpful, & attentive from start to finish.
This was my second time dining here, & after coming back, I can confidently say it fully deserves its 5-star rating - if not more. I would gladly give it a sixth star if I could.
Strongly recommended!
After a long day of sightseeing, our group of nine stopped by Fung Shing. Because we were a large group, reservations are recommended.
Once seated, the service was relaxed & well organized. We never felt rushed, & the dishes arrived exactly as requested - even when we asked for most of them to come out at the same time.
If you're visiting Montréal, Fung Shing is absolutely worth a visit. With 50 years of history in the city, it's truly a Montréal classic.
For larger groups, especially 9 pe

Went for lunch while visiting Montreal with my partner & was our favorite meal! Service was amazing, all the food tasted delicious with great portions & the house red wine was 10/10. Would recommend :)

Excellent service client, un grand merci à toute l'équipe mais surtout à Mlle.Lu & Mr Steven ! La nourriture est excellente & le cadre super convivial. À venir tester les yeux fermés !!!!
Great nostalic Chinese restaurant opened since the late 70's. Nothing fancy just good food at honest prices. Same decor as 50 years ago. Not a place for the fussy or faint at heart.
