Le Piment Rouge est perçu comme l'une des meilleures adresses chinoises de Montréal, avec une cuisine Sichuan authentique, des plats savoureux et des portions généreuses dans un cadre élégant et chaleureux et un service attentif et professionnel qui met les clients à l'aise, même en groupe. Si l'ensemble des avis souligne la qualité et la constance, certains bémols apparaissent comme des prix relativement élevés, des portions parfois plus petites que prévu et des plats qui peuvent décevoir si l'authenticité n'est pas au rendez-vous, notamment pour le canard laqué et certaines sauces. D'autres commentaires mettent en avant la variété du menu, la fraîcheur des ingrédients et l'équilibre des assaisonnements, ainsi que l'organisation du service et la volonté du personnel de proposer des portions plus petites pour limiter le gaspillage lorsque la table est nombreuse. Plusieurs convives recommandent de réserver et de tester les plats du menu spécial, certains éléments étant soulignés pour leur originalité et leur finesse, et tous retiennent l'ambiance accueillante, le décor soigné et la propreté exemplaire ainsi que la gestion des grands groupes, ce qui en fait une adresse prisée pour repas en famille ou occasions festives. Dans l'ensemble, Le Piment Rouge ressort comme une expérience culinaire de haut niveau, authentique et souvent remarquable, avec des notes positives sur la fraîcheur des ingrédients et la qualité des sauces malgré quelques critiques mineures et le prix.
Me & my husband rate this restaurant 1 star we very disappointed as we ordered steamed seabas but they give different fish taste like tilapias we very familiar with the taste of sea bass & the price is very expensive not to recommend this restaurant better to eat in kung khe Chinatown the price is worth & food very good quality
I came here with my friends, expecting it might be a bit of a gamble, but it turned out to be surprisingly good. The Mao Xue Wang & Kung Pao Chicken really showcase the skill of Sichuan cooking - the chicken was tender & juicy, & the shrimp chips, shrimp, & squid in the Mao Xue Wang were all fresh & flavorful.
To be honest, the eggplant with green beans was just average, but the big-eyed staff member was very attentive. Although his Chinese wasn't very fluent, he kept trying to communicate with us & patiently suggested that since we were only two ladies, we didn't need to order too many dishes & could go for smaller portions to avoid wasting food. You can tell the owner runs the place with honesty. Highly recommended - definitely worth a try!

This restaurant is a nice twist of Chinese cuisine with innovative creation, where new ideas are unleashed to blend in harmony with typical menu.
Even the atmosphere feels different, with a warm welcome so noticeable that makes you really feel at home. Staff are very attentive without being overly intrusive. There is a high presence of hospitality where you never feel watched, only looked after. They rely on visuals & a quiet presence to ensure everything is progressing perfectly. Tea pots are swiftly being refilled. A variety of different size rectangular tables, as opposed to the typical round tables, to accommodate large groups.
Getting back to the dishes:
- We started with crispy shrimp balls with the filling being bouncy with a savoury paste made from minced shrimp. The outside is deep-fried rice sticks (?) puffed up to become incredibly airy & shatteringly crisp, creating that'nest' look.
- Meat balls enrobed with white rice, where the meat is so deliciously seasoned.
- The next dish is a Szechuan style fish soup with pickled cabbage buried at the bottom. This is a relatively thick broth with a luxurious mouthfeel & I can tell that fish head & bones were fried & simmered intensely to create this creamy white base. The soup is finished by pouring smoking hot oil over the dried chilies. So delicious, but if I had to re-order it, I would ask the chef to go easy on the salt.
- Beijing roast duck. This is quite a large plate as it looks like the entire duck was carved. This is served with pancakes, cucumber sticks & the sweet salty sauce. If you are looking for the imperial taste of B?ij?ng k?oy?, then this is not the place, but nevertheless very acceptable.
- Mince pork & beans. I occasionally cook with these ingredients, but the taste is truly unique & well worth a try.
- Sweet & sour chicken. This is the typical dish in balancing sweet & sour flavours, accompanied by large chunks of green onions & red bell peppers. The glistening, reddish-brown glaze is probably made with sweet bean sauce.
- Fried rice. Not the typical Cantonese fried rice I am used to, as the taste & even the rice is different. It is well seasoned, savoury & aromatic. But so different.
Thanks to the host family who invited us to this truly unique restaurant which is a place I would greatly recommend.
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.
Ce restaurant est une vrai merveille! Nous sommes allés dîner & avons reçu un accueil chaleureux. Le service, explications & suggestions de Virginia, notre serveuse, étaient exceptionnels. La nourriture est délicieuse & le décor très joli! Je le recommande fortement!
Great experience & a MUST in the Montreal food scene especially when it comes to Szechuan food. The staff is welcoming & the food lives up to its reputation. I highly recommend trying Le Piment Rouge, you will not be disappointed.
Everytime I go the food is absolutely fantastic! You can tell it's Fresh & authentic! It's defiently not the typical commercial food this is sooo tasty & different from the rest I highly recommend but Only thing I wish is for it have more ambiance to make it more cozy ...it's a very bright room that's beautifully decorated but lights need to be a little dimmer & maybe music a little higher so that the voices & convos of the guests in room gets simmered down with the music in background It would change the whole ambiance ...

I'd highly recommend people to dine at this restaurant once. I truly love the food here, it's very tasty & the ambience is really cozy. The service is top-notch & a big thanks to Miss Virginia, who is very hospitality & knowledgeable in presenting the origin of every single dish that I ordered. Most importantly, you should try the Hunan wonton with peanut butter sauce. (you won't regret it.) The location is very accessible just 7 minute's walk away from the metro Acadie.
The restaurent is really beautiful, the food was correct. Taste fresh but i was expecting better especially for the price. I still enjoyed my meal but not my bill. The service was something else, the waiters were as confused as the customers about what was going on, they seem to be in a restaurant for the first time of their life. It took 25 minutes to get someone to come see us & take our order & we were sitting for 45 minutes before we got a glass of water. It make dinner funny having 5 different waiters who were really friendly trying to take care of us & what seem to be the manager trying to understand why we do not get our food rather than organizing his team for everything to go smoothly. definitely not enjoyable to wait so much to get average overprice food. I will keep a good memory of the chaos of service that happen under my eyes for a not busy service night but i would not recommend anyone to go there unfortunately.
Fabulous dining experience, very informative friendly staff, made you feel at home. The crispy shrimp & sweet potato were a highlight. Hazel, the owner of the old Piment Rouge is back in the restaurant business, with a lot of old favourites, & new ones as well. Nice modern airy decor, & chefs directly from China. Will definitely return. Highly recommended!
Stumbled upon this gem of a restaurant. Food was incredible from start to finish. Had dim sum & the crunchy beef plate with steamed rice & wonton soup. My belly is very happy now. Highly recommended. Service was fantastic as well.

Nous étions un groupe de 13 personnes & nous avions une belle grande table. La nourriture était délicieuse. Tous les plats qui sont faits pour partager étaient savoureux. Le problème est au niveau du service, mon groupe & moi avons trouvé que les serveurs ne savaient pas quoi faire & dans quel ordre. Nous avons reçu l'alcool d'une seule personne, après 2-3 entrées pour quelques personnes seulement, après un plat principal, après d'autres entrées, bref tout arrivait dans le désordre. Il était difficile d'avoir de l'eau au début & personne n'est revenu nous voir pour commander de l'alcool quand tous nos verres étaient vides. Nous avons eu aussi la promesse que la cheffe/propriétaire allait venir nous voir, mais nous attendons encore. Je recommande pour emporter ou une équipe mieux formée.
We had a great time. The food was delicious & the service was amazing. Plus, the music is not too loud so we could ear ourselves talk! Would recommend!
My wife & I stumbled upon "Le Piment Rouge Beaumont" quite by accident after a medical appointment in TMR, & what a delightful discovery it was! Initially hesitant due to its modest 4.0 rating & some critical reviews, our cravings led us through its doors-& we're thrilled they did! In a word, this place is *astonishing*. Nestled unexpectedly in its neighborhood, it stands out as the most authentic Chinese dining experience in Montréal. Our encounter with the staff only amplified our enjoyment. Brianna, a bright & attentive server, made us feel so at home that we were tempted to recruit her for our own business! Alongside her was a courteous young man whose professionalism matched her own. The culinary prowess was evident in every dish, compelling us to seek out the chefs just to express our gratitude for the meal that filled both our bellies & our hearts. With an average price of around $200 for two, the restaurant provides great value for truly high-quality fare. Our only wish is that it were closer to the West Island! Le Piment Rouge Beaumont deserves every accolade for its superb food, excellent service, & welcoming atmosphere. We eagerly anticipate our next visit, & recommend it to anyone in search of authentic Chinese cuisine. Highly recommended!
Came here with family for my 21st birthday. They spoke highly of this place, & on first impression, it seemed a little out of place in the neighborhood, & quite different from your typical Chinese restaurant, but our expectations were completely blown away. The food was absolutely incredible, & safe to say it is probably the only real Chinese fine dining restaurant in Greater Montreal. 100% must recommend :)
I loved my experience at Piment Rouge. It made me feel like I was back at the original. Amazing food, great service & beautiful location. I would definitely recommend people to go with friends & family because there is nothing disappointing about it.
