La Perle propose un menu diversifié harmonisant les préparations chinoises classiques avec les profils aromatiques vibrants de la cuisine thaïlandaise traditionnelle. La cuisine privilégie les sautés à haute température et la superposition minutieuse d'épices fraîches pour créer des profils de saveurs complexes dans une vaste sélection de plats de nouilles et de riz. Les convives découvrent une large gamme de protéines savoureuses, incluant le canard croustillant, le bœuf tendre et des options de fruits de mer préparées avec des sauces au tamarin acidulé ou au curry de coco crémeux. L'aménagement intérieur offre un espace fonctionnel et sobre, permettant de se concentrer sur l'essentiel. Un service efficace garantit l'arrivée rapide des plats, préservant l'intégrité structurelle des légumes croquants et des protéines cuites avec précision. Cet établissement constitue une destination fiable pour explorer directement les fondamentaux culinaires asiatiques avec une constance technique rigoureuse.
La Perle est souvent cité comme un incontournable de longue date à Montréal, de nombreux clients fidèles soulignant la constance de la qualité de sa cuisine, la fraîcheur de ses ingrédients et des plats populaires comme le pain grillé aux crevettes et les dumplings au beurre d'arachide. Bien que beaucoup d'habitués décrivent leurs expériences comme excellentes et célèbrent des occasions spéciales au restaurant, les avis récents sont partagés. Certains clients expriment une grande satisfaction quant à l'attention du personnel et à l'ambiance générale, tandis que d'autres font part de leur déception concernant une baisse de la qualité des plats, une hausse des prix et des normes de service inégales. Des problèmes tels que les longs délais d'attente, les erreurs de réservation et des préoccupations concernant l'entretien des lieux ont été signalés par certains convives, ce qui entraîne des points de vue divergents sur la capacité du restaurant à maintenir le charme et l'excellence qui faisaient autrefois sa réputation.
Great service! The waitress was amazing, she took much care of our large group, was attentive to our needs & quick. The food was good & fresh, especially the human dumplings. I wish all the food was as delicious!
Don't get me wrong, food was good, yet some not as much. The shrimps plates were disappointing (the sauce), the eggplant was too cooked, therefore mushy).
We were overall pleased with everything. & although it is all you can eat, most of us only had 2 plates & so 50$ plus tip is a bit much. Not knowing if they do, yet I'd prefer selecting 1 meal & pay less. I assume they might with their take out option.
To the review right below mine (newest to oldest):
'I've been a loyal customer of La Perle for years': So, you've been coming to this restaurant for years & had a good experience every time except for one time, & that is the moment you decide to write a review? You enjoyed coming to a place nine times out of ten, & the one time it wasn't a good experience, you decide to write a bad review? The math isn't adding up. You enjoyed your visit 90% of the time, & then you decide to give a 1-star review the one time you didn't enjoy your visit.
'one of my family members found an ant in their rice. When we raised our concerns, the response was dismissive, a $20 credit on a $400 bill. This isn't about the money.': The staff apologized to you guys & offered free drinks & a $20 discount as compensation; yet, you were giving the staff a lot of attitude. You emphasized the $20 credit on a $400 bill as if it is insufficient. What else did you want? It is an all-you-can-eat restaurant, so you can simply reorder the dish. Moreover, you said that'this isn't about money'; however, in reality, you demanded a free bill for one person, which is $44. If you are going to post a review, at least don't spread lies & pretend that you'didn't care for the money' or'money compensation wasn't the issue,' which clearly it was when you wanted more than a $20 compensation-even though in your review you state,'This isn't about the money.' I am not sure how one can attain this level of greediness. You found an ant in a bowl of steamed rice worth $3.50 & demand $44 in compensation. This is more than 10x the compensation you are asking for, so don't even say that'this isn't about money.' Unless you suffered mental trauma & psychological damages from an ant in steamed rice, I find the 10x compensation unjustified. You ate all the main courses & appetizers, & at the very end of your meal, you find an ant in a small plate of steamed rice & demand a free bill on your entire meal-including the main courses & appetizers you already ate, which were in good condition. Make it make sense. Found an ant in steamed rice = Free bill including main course, appetizer, & dessert? Next time, go to The Keg & try asking for a free bill (including steak & appetizer) when you find a fruit fly in your soup & let's see if they comply. One's life must be very miserable & sad if they lie in their reviews. What does one gain from this? Must be leading an unfruitful life... must be quite pitiful

I have lived in multiple countries & traveled to more than 50. This is by far my favorite restaurant that I have EVER been to. Well worth the price. We book flights with layovers in Montreal just to be able to make a stop here to eat.
Very good food. A lot of variety. Take the'All you can eat' so that you can have the most choices. Everything is prepared specifically for you... It is not a buffet. Do not worry about the quantities as they will figure it out depending on what you order. There are a lot of choices. Need to go many times to be able to try the different menu items.
Really disappointed in the service. La Perle is a West Island staple. Truly the best Chinese food you can eat in the city but the service is to be left desired. I had driven specifically from downtown to pick up food & when I arrived home, I noticed a dish was missing. A simple mistake surely, I called to advise them to get a refund for the dish or a restaurant credit. The woman on the phone sounded shocked & said they'd need to check the cameras & call back. Pretty surprised by her response considering it's a little strange to have cameras watching their kitchen staff but I said no problem & thank you for checking. It's now three days later, no call back & no apology from the restaurant. Really disappointed as a long time fan.
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.
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
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
