Papa Jackie delivers authentic Cantonese and Chinese dishes with large portions and generally flavorful results, earning praise for dishes like salt and pepper pork, salt pepper squid, chicken, beef with vegetables, seafood fried rice, and noodle soups; the place is often very busy, especially on weekends, which can lead to long waits and uneven service, and some guests feel prices are high for the portions. Takeout can be reliable but wait times can be long when the kitchen is slammed, and online ordering is possible through delivery apps; the BYOB option is appreciated by many, and the lively atmosphere, clean spaces, and fish tank add to the experience, though cleanliness and ambiance can vary with the crowd. Overall, Papa Jackie is considered a solid, reliable option for good Chinese food, especially for families or large groups.
Best Chinese-style seafood feast restaurant ever! It was SO AMAZING. The Hong Kong-style crab was insanely flavorful 😋. I'll definitely be back with more people for another feast!
Servers were really nice & the food came out very quickly.My family & I ordered- General Tao Chicken, Sweet & Sour Spare Ribs, Chicken Fried Rice, Chicken Chow Mein with veggies, beef & broccoli, salt & pepper shrimp & fried chicken. Food was very flavourful & generous portions.

Best Chinese restaurant in Montreal Everything I ordered was really delicious. I will definitely come back next time I'm in Montreal. I want to go there right now. You have to go here. It's really crowded.
Nous avons commandé via uber eats & avons été vraiment agréablement surpris. Nous avons commandé rouleaux impérieaux, boulettes de crevettes & porc siu mai vapeur & un plat de pad thai. Tout etait très chaud & frais. Les saveurs étaient excellentes, particulièrement pour les boulettes. Les portions son généreuses, nous étions 2 & en avons assez pour un dîner le lendemain. Clairement nous allons rééssayer, mais en restaurant.
Had dinner at Papa Jackie, they were very busy, & probably short of staffs for the traffic. We ordered five dishes, the food was very tasty & well done, on the salty side for me, but goes well with rice. The service is average due to short staffs, so customers have to be more patient.
Digne de la population cantonaise à Brossard, se cache derrière cette devanture questionnable "Papa Jackie" un restaurant plutôt bien décoré offrant un menu de cuisine chinoise/cantonaise classique. Le riz frit au poisson salé est remarquable, les autres plats qu'on a goûtés sont très bons, une option qui n'a rien à envier aux plus grandes enseignes à Montréal. Une adresse qui aurait mérité un 5 étoiles si seulement il n'y avait pas eu faute sur le plat pour emporter les restants; un couvercle huileux, visiblement utilisé, ça arrive une erreur, mais le serveur qui le met sur le comptoir sans en redonner un nouveau, une 2e tentative résultant en un couvercle qui ne correspond pas au bol, puis une 3e demande qui abouti dans un désastreux retour du même couvercle sale qui s'est retrouvé sur la pile des couvercles (peut-être par un autre serveur inattentionné)... À la 4e demande, c'était finalement ok, sans drama malgré tout. Bref, à prendre avec un grain de sel. L'endroit semblait tout de même propre. Menu trilingue FR, EN & chinois, sauf des pages spéciales en chinois, très navrant mais pas surprenant puisque ce ne sont pas les seuls à avoir cela. J'espère un jour comprendre l'entièreté du menu aux restaurants chinois.
Très bon service, bonne bouffe le boeuf au gingembre était particulièrement tendre. Mais j'ai due enlever une étoile, le stationnement est terrible, de nombreuses place sont réservées pour les autres commerces & de plus les places sont extrêmement étroite, endroit idéal pour faire abîmé votre précieux bolide.

A decent Cantonese restaurant with authentic taste. In addition to the dishes on the menu, the soup & Cantonese dessert (10$) are worth trying. There are many customers & the dining environment is not elegant. Mandatory 18% tip makes me feel uncomfortable.
Possibly one of the best Chinese restaurant I've been too. Delicious, tasty, good amount, just yum. You can pretty much order anything & it will be guaranteed delicious. Update from my first review a few years ago. STILL delicious & so tasty. Yummy in my belly. My kids love Cantonese chow mein.
An authentic Chinese restaurant in the South Shore. The staff is friendly & was very helpful with the menu. The portions were very good for the price. Everything tasted fresh & good. The plates look beautiful & are very appealing to the eyes. The wait can be long, but they accept reservations. We left with lots of leftovers.
