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.
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!

I was planning to eat at the Jade Buffet, but it's closed for 2 months, so I went across the street to La Belle Epicee. There was a sign advertising dishes for $14, so I chose the spicy chicken dish. There was an option to add 2 spring rolls & a drink for $4, so I did that. The spring rolls were the tiniest spring rolls I have ever seen! & the drink came in a can & it wasn't cold, so that was disappointing. The main dish was pretty good, but not that filling because the portion size was a little small. I was still starving after I had finished, so I went to the nearby Burger King & got a Junior Whopper trio to fill me up. My meal prior to the Burger King visit, including tax & a 15% tip, came to $23.72. If Jade Buffet had been open, I could have eaten as much as I wanted for only $1.28 more.
I really love their fried rice & noodles!!🤤& the portions are always a lot!! I think the Sichuan pepper flavor is my favorite & super spicy.
Love their taro & matcha drink too☺?
This is chinatown montreal. The noodle soupe avec Angus beaf at Le Belle Epicee is a fusion delight, with tender meat & flavorful Angus beef with rich, savory Chinese broth & pho noodles, offering a satisfying, hearty bowl with perfectly velveted beef that soaks up the balanced, complex flavors-a must-try here for those seeking asian flavors. The soupe is a little but spicy but just enough for me. The portion is big & can be for sharing. I also ordered citron lemon tea & very refreshing & for me good combo for the signature pho noodles soupe. Price is ranging from 15$ to 25$ per person but again maybe good for sharing. The people there are also accommodating.
Today, being sick, I decided to order something on Uber Eats from a Szechuan Cuisine to help ease my cold. I'm glad I decided on La Belle Épicée. I ordered an extra Spicy Sauerkraut Beef Brisket Slice Stew & a side of vegetable spring rolls.
The stew was generous in portion & very flavourful. It was spicy but not to the point it would make your buds burn. It had a good portion of meat brisket as well. I could literally feel my throat pain calming down as I was eating it.
The spring rolls had a tasty filling albeit a tad oily.
I look forward to ordering more from this restaurant.
I enjoyed my extra spicy General Tao's chicken & egg roll combo, food was very fresh & the sauce & spicy were very flavorful & authentic . Service was fast, food was hot, excellent choice & affordable. I will return when in Montreal.

This place is GOOOOD! I had the spicy pork stew & it was Very Spicy!! A very large serving too. Super-delicious!
They also have lots of non-spicy foods for kids & anyone else. A great place to go with anyone because there are tame options for people who don't want anything strange, & lots of unusual options for people who want to try foods you would not find in common Chinese restaurants. Lots of interesting fish options especially. Also great service, great vibe, & great sweet tea options.
A really nice restaurant. This place has really good air ventilating, so even if it offer some spicy & oily dishes, you don't smell it. For a small restaurant, it has a lot of seats. It also has a nice atmosphere with its light coloured wood structure. The food is delish & affordable. A fried rice & two drinks was less than 20 dollars pre taxes!
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 !

Fish soup with pumpkin based broth was very tasty. Mild & not spicy at all. You can add extra toppings as you wish but the base topping was good enough for me.
We found Mr. Fish on a recent trip to Montréal. Typical us, we travel to a new foreign city & immediately look to explore their Chinatown 😂. If I lived in Montréal, I could definitely see Mr. Fish becoming one of our go to staple restaurants. The space is small yet inviting & shares a building with a boba shop which we ordered while we ate. We knew we had a long day of traveling & exploring other restaurants so we wanted to keep our order light & decided to go with their signature sauerkraut fish stew with a side of shredded potatoes & smashed cucumbers. When the fish stew arrived the presentation was so charming & reminded us of eating in Taiwan. The rice they served was a heaping delicious mound & went perfectly with the spicy, sour & delicious soup. Service was kind & present, but not too overbearing. Much appreciated 🤙🏼. Definitely worth a visit!
Wifey wanted some Asian food so I searched Chinatown. Out of 3 restaurants, she picked this one. She was concerned if we would be able to get a table on a Sunday night, but that was not an issue. It wasn't very busy. The restaurant did not have a lot of dining tables either & it's connected to Yi Fang drinks. She had her eyes set on sauerkraut fish stew as that's their specialty. We picked the house special one & had it at regular spicy level. The server said you could increase the spiciness but can't really lower it much. We stuck with the regular spiciness. It was still kind of burning as we mildly suffered & enjoyed the dish. We only had one bowl of rice & shared it, but it was a big heaping bowl so it was enough. Probably would have been less spice burning if we had more rice. lol We also got a grilled squid skewer. It wasn't much to write home about, but it was okay. That's all we got because I had planned on going to another place for dinner #2. We would go back for the sauerkraut fish stew again so 4 stars!

I can make szechuan spicy fish at home myself, but oh boy do I still come to this place, they are on a whole other level. I cannot recommend this place enough.
In the heart of Montreal's vibrant Chinatown, my quest for culinary exploration led me to M. Poisson, a quaint restaurant known for its unique dining proposition. It shares its space with Yi Fang, offering an intriguing option to pair meals with bubble tea-a delightful touch for those keen on a diverse dining experience. However, accessing M. Poisson presents a bit of a challenge due to its location. Like many establishments in bustling urban areas, finding parking can be tricky. Moreover, the restaurant's entry is stair-only, posing an accessibility issue for individuals with mobility impairments. Despite these logistical hurdles, the dining experience at M. Poisson is nothing short of remarkable. On a day when the allure of fish soup eluded me, I opted for a custom order, substituting fish with beef in my soup, complemented by wood ear mushrooms & a side of rice. Even though the restaurant was not crowded, with just one other table occupied, it was clear that M. Poisson thrives on a brisk trade of takeout & delivery orders. Impressively, this did not detract from our service speed, as our meals arrived promptly. The highlight of my visit was undoubtedly the spicy sauerkraut soup base. Its masterful blend of spice & sourness was a palate pleaser, perfectly complementing the generous portions of beef & mushrooms. The pricing was the cherry on top, offering great value for such quality fare. M. Poisson has certainly earned its spot on my list of must-visit restaurants. Its blend of quality, value, & unique offerings, despite the minor inconveniences of location & access, make it a worthwhile location.
I regularly get takeout from here. Piping hot fish soup is especially nice on a cold winter day. Generous portion & fair prices. The Schezuan Peppercorn & the Spicy Sauerkraut are my go to. The only thing I would improve is the consistency. Sometimes the soup is lacking in seasoning, or isn't spicy enough. Other than that, great spot for comfort food.
