I really love this place. Best Chinese spot in downtown Montreal. & it's accessible no matter your palate for Chinese. If you're just a General Tao's chicken kind of person- it's good here. If you're looking for some authentic Chinese flavor- you can find that here too. Personally I love the salt & pepper fried shrimp & cumin beef, amazing flavors. Family run & everything made piping hot to order. Best pregame or preconcert secret while everyone else seems to be at La Cage or La Belle & La Boeuf!

Kanbei restaurant is absolutely authentic! The flavors are bold, spicy, & well-balanced-not overly greasy. The dishes are generously portioned & served quickly. The mapo tofu, boiled fish in chili oil, & twice-cooked pork were especially delicious. Friendly service & reasonable prices. Highly recommended for anyone who loves real Sichuan cuisine!

Kan Bei is a fantastic spot for authentic & flavorful Chinese food! The portions are generous, the presentation is beautiful, & the taste is absolutely delicious. We tried the crispy noodles with shrimp & vegetables - the shrimp were fresh & juicy, the veggies perfectly cooked, & the sauce tied everything together with amazing flavor & texture.

We also had the Kung Pao-style dish with rice, & it was packed with flavor - tender bites, crunchy peanuts, & just the right balance of sweet & spicy. Every bite felt fresh & satisfying.

The service was friendly & quick, & the atmosphere is warm & inviting, making it a great place to enjoy a meal with friends or family. Definitely one of the best spots in the area for authentic Chinese cuisine.

Came to Montreal on holidays but craving for Chinese food. The Sichuan dishes here lack of Mala flavor (numbing & spicy flavor) but I guess it's adapted to local taste. Although not completed satisfied, it did give some sort of comfort to my cravings. Service here is slow & not excellent. Also they have two types of La Zi Ji ( spicy chili chicken) which I haven't never seen in any restaurants, one with bones & the other without bones. The one without bones is actually not authentic at all, it's just fried chicken with some chills, more catered for westerns. The one with bones? My advice is not to have La Zi Ji with bones as most authentic La Zi Ji dishes don't come with bones.

The Hot & Sour soup & the Mapo Tofu were beyond delicious. Extremely flavorful. The mapo felt like authentic shanghainese style. The dan dan noodles were also delicious but needed time to soak the sauce up.
