Our famous Dim Sum is now back to Montreal! Enjoy hot and fresh Dim Sum along with authentic Chinese cuisine in the heart of Downtown in our new location!
Restaurant Impérial is widely praised for fresh dim sum and Cantonese dishes, with reviewers highlighting crowd-pleasers like har gao, shrimp dumplings and BBQ pork buns, and noting the lobster and eggplant dishes as standout options. The QR code ordering system and quick kitchen turnaround are frequently mentioned, along with reasonable prices and a wide variety that suits families and groups. The dining room is described as large and lively, making it a dependable spot for dim sum, but crowds on weekends can make it noisy and service uneven at times. Some critiques point to occasional bland or overly salty dishes, gaps in cleanliness, and moments of slow or less courteous service, though several diners report fast attention and attentive staff. Overall, it is considered a top choice for Cantonese dim sum on the south shore with good value and consistent availability of many dishes, though experiences can vary by visit.
Went for dim sum on a Sunday morning, got there just before the rush. We ordered via their QR code & the food started arriving within 5 minutes! Everything was super fresh & crispy. I've gone for dim sum countless times in Montreal & this was by far the best tasting version I've had. None of the fried dishes were greasy: the squid tentacles, fried turnip cake, seaweed rolls, & even the crispy shrimp inside the rice rolls were super crispy & light. The har gao shrimp dumplings were plump, perfectly cooked & not waterlogged, & the BBQ pork Bao was a revelation - perfectly steamed bread stuffed with chunks of high quality BBQ pork & delicious sauce, not the usual slimy overly sweet stuff you get at the bun shops. Highly recommend this place, we'll be going back soon!
Nous y avons été pour les Dim sur un samedi d'octobre 2025. Les portions sont généreuses. Fait à noter: il n'y a pas de menu physique, on commande avec notre cellulaire + le QR code assigné à notre table.
Nous avons apprécié ;-)

New favorite dim sum spot! The BBQ pork was definately the best I've had! It took us a minute to figure out how to order throigh the QR code, but I liked that we didnt have to wait for a specific cart to come by, which ensured the dish was hot & fresh. They also had a variety of schezwan that I would have liked to try if I hadnt been so full. I will be going back.
We have not had dim sum for a while & so glad that we found this place in Brossard. The restaurant opens right at 10 a.m., tucked away in a plaza off a busy area. Parking may be challenging if you get there later in the morning. We were there a few minutes before opening & when we entered the restaurant, we were seated immediately.
The nice thing about the ordering system is, they have the menu on a QR code scan, & you can add additional items to the order, at any time. Once, & order is placed, the items come out fairly quickly, piping hot.
We thoroughly enjoyed the many items we ordered ranging from char siu bao, shiu mai, har gow, chicken feet (my favorite!), soy bean sheet roll, sushi roll, fried taro dumplings, radish cake, & steamed rice roll with crispy shrimp.
We will definitely be back to try more of their items on the menu. Prices are also reasonable & they are very attentive to refill our tea. Love this place!
Possibly the best dim sum place in the Montreal area. Decent pricing for what you get. Banquet hall style dining place & you order by a QR code. Service was efficient & food was delish.

Great no frills dim sum place. My family goes to dim sum literally every week. I've eaten in most of the highest rated dim sum places in Vancouver & Toronto. This is not your fancy dim sum plaxe. This is your excellent value with true Cantonese style dim sum fare. Don't expect 5 star customer service as they don't charge like one. Food is ordered by QR code which is original for dim sum. I really like this system as all items come in promptly with no ordering mistakes. They have all the condiments available for a HK style restaurant. Owners have been in the dim sum business for over 2 decades. Imho, must try for people visiting Montreal.
Great atmosphere for Dim Sum. Family friendly. Lots of space. Clean toilets. Friendly & welcoming staff. Great food with QR code accessed website ordering for the table. English friendly.
Maybe its not for me but i'd rather go to kam fung down the street. Menu choices are very little for dim sum & requires a qr code to order. Haven't tried their a la carte menu but let's be real, it's a dum sum place & should not be ordering a la carte canto/szechuan dishes. Not worth the gas unless you live in the shore. Better choices in the city for the same price point for dim sum.
