Restaurant La Perle in Dollard-des-Ormeaux on Boulevard St-Jean serves fine Thai and Schezwan cuisine using fresh products. Buffet served at your table and menu à la carte. Restaurant La Perle is renowned for its General Tao chicken and its Hunnan dumplings. Contemporary decor and casual ambiance.

La Perle is described as delivering delicious, freshly prepared dishes with a wide range and generous portions in an all you can eat format, making it a West Island staple that many would return to, with praise for friendly and efficient service when staff are available. However, some reviews note slow or inconsistent service, and a perception that food quality and prices have shifted since the COVID reopening. Overall, the consensus highlights strong flavors and value for some, while others caution that service and consistency can vary.
Food is not well seasoned. Server who took our order wasn't able to explain well the food & how it is prepared. Servers would just pick up an empty plate without asking which I find rude. They are not accommodating as well if you have any food allergy restrictions. Parking: free outdoor parking Payment: cash, credit & debit. 4% discount for cash payment.
This used to be a great all you can eat restaurant. They closed it for 2 months. Now, it's not the same. Be careful about "all you can eat" part. If you ask for more than one of the popular dishes, you must insist & must insist & must insist to get them. It's really annoying (I am talking about peanut butter dumplings & canape). We waited for over 1.5 hours for main dishes. We were 6 people & ordered 3 peanut butter dumplings & 2 canape for entry. After 0.5 h we got only one & one. They insisted that they are going to bring them later. Didn't happen but after a heated discussion with the waiter. Still didn't get ever our second canape asked. In general, the food is very good, but it used to be better.
Stay away from this placé it only thinks of money. Not food. Service is very Low. They can not deliver on time. They can not serve what you want. Everything is a big deal. YOU CAN PAY BY CASH . WHERE IS THIS MONEY GOING. .
I recently went here with a group of 20 people. We all agree: "This food is NOT what it used to be." The food WAS great years ago. The price has gone up & the quality has gone WAY down. I don't know why there are so many good reviews. Years ago I would have given them 5+ stars. I used to talk about them to all my friends, but now, it has all ended. Go to Chinatown, spend less money & get better food. Don't waste your time & money. We are never going back here!
En este restaurante cocinan comida Thailandesa, está sabrosa. Es un poco caro, pero vale la pena porque es un Buffet a voluntad y ellos traen los platos a la mesa, es ideal para ir en grupo y comer en la misma mesa todos. El ambiente es muy bueno, digno y es bonito. Sólo hay que hacer reservación con tiempo porque se llena mucho. Incluye el postre, té o café. Sí volvería otra vez.
I've been going to this restaurant since 2013. I've never ate peanut butter dumplings as good as theirs. Food is fresh & delicious, great atmosphere to go in a group. You definitely should try this place! The best all you can eat, keeping it classy. Note: please add a changing table for babies in your restaurant, us parents we would totally appreciate it

La Perle is THE BEST PLACE for szechuan food! Always fresh, this restaurant has held its name for over 30 years. A bit pricey but worth every penny, if you go as a group it's much more enjoyable, their take out is great as well.
Very popular Chinese Thai restaurant on west island of Montreal, the entrance is on the back of building, through building main entrance for several business, spa, sushi restaurant, bit confusing, & the door of restaurant is not easy to recognize 😀 😜 😉, the food is good, you have two options, all you can eat or pay what you order, you are give pencil & a piece of paper note, write down the number of dish, wait stuff bring the food to your table, they claim general tao chicken is their signature dish, try the dry fried shrimp 🍤 with garlic butter sauce, ask waiting stuff what ethnic Chinese ordered, mostly you will get delicious food, they close at 10 pm, there are fortune cookies & cookies 🍪 with the bill
