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.

La comida está bien, pero tardan demasiado en traer la comida, tuvimos que pedir más de 3 veces agua por qué la mesera lo olvidaba.

Craving for spicy food & this place certainly helped! We came here twice in this trip, no need to wait , quick service. The food & menu is adapted to European western style but the level of spiciness in the spice dishes is still intense. Decent price, definately recommend for those want quick fix for a taste of chinese spicy food.

Absolutely loved the food at La Belle Épicée in Chinatown, Montreal!
We originally wanted to try their pork dish, but it wasn't available, so we went with the signature chili oil Szechuan chicken instead-& we thoroughly enjoyed it! The flavors were bold, spicy, & incredibly satisfying. Will definitely be back to if we happen to be at Montreal !

The'original' (highest spice) soup base is authentic & delicious. We have some doubts about other items on the menu, since the one less authentic addition (the sliced beef) doesn't quite fit with the flavor profile- but we would definitely recommend the noodle soup with the original broth + fish for an easy & satisfying meal. For reference, the bowl pictured easily serves two
