The food is authentically Cantonese & full of flavor. I love the hainan chicken rice & their noodles. The service is really friendly & welcoming. 100% recommended.
Stopped by for lunch on this incredibly cold afternoon. The wonton noodle soup I ordered was absolutely delicious & did wonders for my ability to cope with the cold! The staff was lovely too & the prices very reasonable. This place is a little bit off the beaten path, but only a couple minutes away from shopping on St Catherine. I would definitely recommend making the short trip & I will be back!
I found my new go-to restaurant downtown! Convenient placement, delicious food, amazing value, very warm & kind customer service, nice calm ambience. Had dumplings, fried rice as well. Recommend the fried rice with pine nuts.
very authentic chinese cuisine, their cold chicken appetizers has a fair amount of chicken considering the price of the dish. we also ordered their scullion oil noodle, the noodles were sticking together & the dish was cold when delivered. despite the coldness of the dish everything was good. recommend the chili oil wonton, very nice taste & the filling was very tasty. would come back again!
Don't know how authentic their Hainanese chicken is, but it tasted unbelievably bland. Would not recommend if you're looking for a flavorful experience.
Excellent repas dans une ambiance chaleureuse & familiale. La soupe wonton & les oeufs centenaires ont été nos coups de coeur, suivi de près par le poulet salivant & les dumplings aux arachides. Le personnel était attentionné & souriant. Tout ça pour un prix très abordable! Je recommande & je reviendrai!!
The restaurant has a great atmosphere - cozy & welcoming. service is excellent, clay pot rice is absolutely delicious, with perfectly cooked rice & crispy bits at the bottom. The dumplings are also tasty & fresh. Highly recommend!
My newest find for amazing Chinese food! This is truly a gem for Chinese food & we need more of these in Montreal!
We came here 3 times & I can def say the food was delicious & fresh. Hats off to the chef owner because the Clay pot dishes, Hainan chicken & DanDan noodles were better than many many places I've been to all over the place.
I def recommend this place for great Chinese food.
The'Mouth Watering chicken' (cold dish) is the perfect dish to start off with. Then you can try the Dandan noodles & clay pots. Hainan chicken is very hard to find a good place & this place hits the spot for very good!
Expect to see me here often !
One thing they can improve on is the ordering. out of the 3 times I was here, first time the waiter complelty forgot to order the clay pot, second time got the wrong clay pot order.
still a 5 stars for me!
The food was amazing. Great quality & very fresh. Service was very friendly. Definitely recommend & will come back.
After exploring around McGill University, I found this Chinese restaurant. I tried the cold beef & spicy kelp?both were authentic & delicious. The braised pork intestine noodles were also amazing, with rich marinade & a flavorful broth. The attentive service & cozy atmosphere were a big plus. Highly recommend!
Pinophyta may have an unusual name, but it's a hidden gem for neighborhood, family-style Chinese cuisine. I only ordered a few small bites & a clear soup, but everything was comforting-exactly what a traveler needs. The restaurant is clean (no sticky tables!) & well spaced, making for a relaxed & pleasant dining experience. I'd definitely come back, & I highly recommend it as a go-to spot for families or everyday meals. 10/10.
Delicious food. Recommend the dandan mian. Vegetarian & vegan options available. Friendly service!
I've been here two or three times. The lunch special pork ribs is my favorite meal here. They are so good that my last time here I ordered extra pork to go. Very nice restaurant. Great atmosphere. Located closed to the Montréal via rail station & other areas of interest in downtown. The waiters & kitchen staff are so friendly & accommodating. I recommend the lunch items. I've never been here for dinner, but I imagine the dinner dishes are good too. Thanks for the great service & excellent tasting food.
Tout d'abord le décor est vraiment joli, l'espace estcoloré & spacieux.
Le serveur était vraiment sympathique & attentionné, donne également des recommandations selon nos goûts.
Les nouilles dandan étaient délicieuses, bien épicées avec plusieurs textures. Prix raisonnable & portion parfaite.
J'ai hâte d'essayer les autres items du menu!
