Just had one of my best experiences in a Chinese restaurant. Highly recommend the squirrel fish dish, it's very authentic & crispy. The service is excellent, they even proposed setting up a background birthday song as we had the birthday cake. Will be recommending this place to friends & family.

One of the few high-end Chinese restaurants in Montreal! The food is authentic Szechuan, so be prepared for spicy food if you order from the special menu (it's worth it). I highly suggest reserving & pre-ordering the Peking duck, lobster, or Vancouver crab. Unlike many Chinese restaurants, service is excellent here. The free parking after 5 is also appreciated. Decor is casual-chic. & also unlike other Chinese restaurants, the place is spotlessly clean. I'm so glad Piment Rouge is back. It's a great place for a casual meal or a big celebration. Cheers to the Ma family!

As someone who's lived in Montreal for nearly 20 years, I have to say-this is one of the best high-end Chinese restaurants in the city. We ordered several authentic dishes from the special menu, & every single one impressed. It's definitely on the pricier side, but the quality, presentation, & flavors make it well worth it.

The food is authentic. Unfortunately the rice is not fresh & hard.

Walking into Le Piment Rouge feels like stepping into the warm embrace of a favorite Chinese aunt you didn't know you had. Nestled in the hip Mile-Ex, this gem lets you savor the fire & finesse of authentic Szechuan cuisine without braving the downtown traffic-a win for anyone who values both their taste buds & their sanity. The dynamic duo of Virginia & Howard, treat every guest like an old friend, ensuring you're not just fed, but genuinely cared for. The dishes? Oh, they don't just speak to you, but they sing - like Celine Dion vocals with the beauty of Lucy Liu. Le Piment Rouge is a love letter to Szechuan cuisine, & trust me, it's one worth reading-& eating-again & again.
