Jiao, is a dim sum restaurant-bar concept in Old Montreal. It will offer dumplings, bao (Chinese) buns and seafood dim sum in different ways. Beautiful large lanterns and a u-shaped central bar provide a great ambiance to eat or have a drink.
JIAO DIM SUM BAR comes across as a lively Montreal spot with a bar vibe, great music and a vibe that works for groups or a date night. The service is frequently praised for speed and friendliness, though a few reviews mention slower moments during busy times and occasional miscommunications. The food earns broad admiration for flavor and freshness, with many dishes described as tasty and enjoyable, while others note inconsistency and some items being overly salty or not meeting expectations, and some diners feel the menu tilts toward a Westernized style. The cocktail program is a standout for many guests, delivering well balanced and creative drinks that complement the lively setting. Ambiance, energy and overall experience are repeatedly highlighted as positives, while a minority of patrons express frustration with price, portion size or specific dishes. As a result, JIAO DIM SUM BAR remains a popular choice for a night out in Montreal, with strong praise for vibe and drinks but mixed opinions on food value and consistency.
Excellent service literally from beginning to end. Table service was impeccable, food was insanely delicious, & the smooth ambiance with the music made the night perfect. Special shout out to Daniel! 10/10 definitely recommend.
Beautiful location. The ambiance is great, with a bomb playlist for those born in 90s & 2000s. There is no way you can be feeling down with their playlist. The food is good, it's not great. Definitely a bit overpriced for both food & drinks. However, since it's a whole vibes + food package it is definitely worth visiting. Our server, Melissa was fantastic & the manager is very kind too. We got free shots towards the end of our night which was nice

They never told us we had to leave the table at 12 , when 12pm comes around we are just told we need to leave when we were expecting to stay. Waiters don't come to serve we have to go get them
Visited for a casual drink with friends, & our impromptu stay turned out longer than expected. The atmosphere is vibrant, & the DJ treated us to some fantastic classic hip-hop & R&B throwbacks. The cocktails we ordered were superb-I even had four glasses! Met some great people & the manager was also very welcoming & offered us complimentary shots during the night🙌
