About

M. Poisson specializes in authentic Szechuan cuisine characterized by the bold use of numbing peppercorns and vibrant chili oils. The menu prioritizes fresh seafood preparations that highlight the natural textures of shellfish and various fish fillets. Patrons find complex flavor profiles ranging from aromatic garlic sauces to deeply savory fermented bean pastes. The preparation techniques adhere to traditional regional methods that emphasize high heat wok cooking to seal in moisture and preserve vibrant vegetable colors. Every dish serves as a testament to the spice-forward philosophy inherent in classic southwestern Chinese cooking traditions. This establishment provides a focused environment centered on communal sharing and the appreciation of robust regional gastronomy. The culinary approach avoids unnecessary ornamentation, allowing the quality of ingredients and the precise balancing of heat and umami to remain the primary focus.

Delicious & piping hot! Spicy chicken was perfectly crisp. Eggplant was soooo good &, we all loved the pickled mustard green fried rice! Wow, a must stop in china town. My favorite so far.

The staff was friendly & the food is fresh.
I enjoy my stir fried noodle, even after I mention it was a bit salty. They offer to redo a new one. Very kind of them.

The food was great! The spice was on point, although it might've been a little too salty. I really enjoyed the mapo tofu (huge portion!) as well as the signature mustard greens fried rice. Great price too

Fish stew was really good! Soft poached fish & you can also add other toppings as well. It's really not spicy at all. The fermented cabbages just add the right flavor to the dish. Really a good comfort food! Also I forgot the take the picture but their crispy pork was so so so good as well!

Very quick service, fresh food, & easily located in the china town. This place accomodated our big crowd & made it easy for ordering. It has a bathroom located in the basement. There were many items on the menu that were kids favourite. The portion sizes were huge & easily shareable. Take your people & visit this place for the authentic Chinese food.
