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

Amazing authentic Sichaun noodles. Service available in Mandarin, French, & English. If you want noodles with some authentic Sichuan zing, this the spot. Priced appropriately as well!

This is not authentic Chinese-style rice noodles at all. The menu is extremely limited-only a few options written on a blackboard, & no meat included in any dish. The soup has no depth or distinctive flavor whatsoever. It honestly feels like chewing plain boiled rice noodles with ingredients you can merely see, no taste.

The service is chaotic. The female server was unable to manage customers in order & appeared distracted & disengaged while serving people who were waiting in line.

The price is also unreasonably high-over $20 per bowl on average, with only two flavors available. Even instant rice noodles I buy from Asian grocery stores taste far better than this dine-in experience.

I strongly advise anyone considering this place based on its rating: don't be misled by the review rates !

The popup is the reason why I am here. Food was solid 5 stars.

randomly picked a 330ml soda from their fridge & got charged $5.75. It's one of those fancy sodas that go for like $10 a pack.
For a neighborhood noodle spot, that was pretty surprising & kind of ironic. But yeah no one's paying for that again.

Staff are quick & nice. I had the ginger scallion noodles for $8 & loved it. I only wish we had the option to add protein (tofu)

I guess they switched to take out only recently? Only 3 options for noodles. All of them disappointingly like something you would throw together at home at 3 in the morning. No protein options. Just fat & carb.
