I was there with my fiancé & we took the Yunan style tofu noodles, it was one of the best noodle dishes I've had in my life. Thank you.

Unfortunately, J'ai Feng was a disappointing experience for me, especially considering the hype & the difficulty of actually visiting due to the limited hours. I was genuinely excited to try what many people describe as authentic Chinese noodles in Montreal's Little Italy, but the food & value did not meet expectations.

Since the menu is very small, I expected each dish to be exceptional. I ordered both noodle dishes along with the pickled vegetables, & the total came to over $60. For that price, I expected much more balance & depth in flavor.

The hot noodles tasted mostly like bland chicken broth with a heavy amount of chili oil & very little seasoning overall. The cold noodles were dominated by ginger & mint to the point that the other flavors disappeared completely. The pickled vegetables also had an overpowering dill flavor that didn't work for me at all.

I appreciate authentic Chinese cuisine & understand that flavors can be subjective, but this simply wasn't enjoyable for me, especially at the price point.

If you're looking for authentic Asian food in Little Italy, I would personally recommend Épicerie Pumpui for Thai food or Gaia Restaurant for Vietnamese cuisine instead

J'y ai retrouvé ce goût de poivre du Sichuan si particulier, mais mêlé à des saveurs nouvelles : la tomate fermentée & la menthe par exemple apportaient une fraîcheur très originale & tout était parfaitement dosé, l'ail, le piment, les légumes croquants, la viande hachée. Si j'étais à Montréal j'y viendrais toutes les semaines……

Food was ok, unfortunately you can get a lot better for way less in other neighborhoods. I found $22 to be expensive for what it was.

C'est la troisième fois que j'essaie d'aller me chercher des pâtes à cet endroit…. Sans succès les 3 fois..!

Même en arrivant 3 heures avant la fermeture, toujours la même réponse: Nous ne faisons plus à manger dsl…!

Si c'était simplement arrivé une fois j'aurais compris à 100%…! Mais comment ça peut m'arriver 3 fois sur 3 quand tu es dans le service de la restauration…?! Je ne comprends tout simplement pas la gestion de ce'restaurant'…!

Vos heures d'ouvertures sont très très serrées & spécifique, pouvez-vous au moins vous arranger pour avoir assez de nourriture à servir durant vos heures d'ouvertures…!

Très très très mécontent de cet endroit qui a beaucoup trop de reconnaissance de la communauté des réseaux sociaux…!

Je ne recommande tout simplement pas de se déplacer puisqu'ils ne pourront pas vous servir!

Un vrai coup de coeur! Authenticité (me semble), fraîcheur & voyage culinaire dans les différentes régions de la Chine (ça change tous les mois, elle m'a dit!). Le parfait endroit pour un lunch réconfortant qui te fait découvrir de nouveaux plats à chaque visite. =D

Nouilles servies dans une petite boîte de carton. C'était savoureux.
