Their fish stew is excellent. I got the one with Sichuan peppers & pickled veggies. I came here twice while I was in Montréal for a few days, & I think that says a lot.
been meaning to try this place for a while now & it did not disappoint. the house sauerkraut fish stew is so comforting with the super tender fish & flavourful soup. crispy pork is also well seasoned & very crispy (& honestly amazing portion for $10). love the sauce for the chicken & clam stir fry (ps the chicken comes with the bones for those who dont like that). the squid skewers are also good. was $80 total for everything so honestly very worth. could easily do $20 per person here
Very nice place in Chinatown. Flavour is authentic. The squid bbq is super good. Everything we tried is very good. They are a bit under staffed so had to wait 15 min to pay but service is nice & friendly.
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.
