Afficher toutrice(40) chicken(22) noodle(22) clay(22) soup(16) chinese(16) dumpling(16) recommend(14) dishes(11) authentic(11) beef(10) clean(9)This place reminds me of home every time I visit. 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!
Great vegetarian dishes & friendly service!
Noodles were delicious & chewy (in a good way).
I feel sorry to rate 2/5 because Pinophyta has unique items, the service is so great, but the food really disappoints. This is the epitome of just because you are different, high quality, & put in a great effort it does not make you good.
First, if you are going to serve COLD blanched flavourless chicken (poulet salivant) then please clarify so. The fridge-cold chicken 🐔❄? was unexpected & unpleasant.
Secondly, the wonton soup hits you with a disappointing broth smell. Strange flavour & taste, & the meat inside the wonton not properly cooked, or wrong flavour idk (pork or beef + shrimp). It's weird bc it feels like they did put in a great deal of effort. I also found the noodles underwhelming, but still high quality, not cheap.
Good peanut butter dumplings 🥟 & the service from the dark haired lady (early 20s maybe) with glasses very polite & respectful.
Maybe the food is really authentically Chinese & my taste buds have adapted to Chinese-Canadian expectations too much. Until then, this place is only 2/5 for me, but I find it great others like it so much the average goes to 4.8/5, provided the reviews are authentic.
Worth a try, but expect very different & potentially unpleasant. Go if you want an unexpected experience while accepting the risk of positive or negative.
Food was good. Homemade noodles were delicious. Potato salad had a nice kick of spice. Sadly, couldn't try the famous clay pot rice because of a nut allergy. Staff is super kind & attentive.
Delicious noodles, perfect chew flavourful but not overly spicy (ordered dandan) . Really clean restaurant, where you can see the clean kitchen. Friendly waitress. Can't wait to come back & try more dishes!
Fantastic authentic food! The claypot rice was delicious, & so were the appetizers. Will be coming back to try their noodles!
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!
We are returning! A top place for noodles, dumplings, chicken rice/dishes, & amuse bouche appetizers. Don't forget to try their speciality plum juice! Well done team with friendly service 👍🏻👍🏻
Not Spicy to korean. Soup is delicious & you can choose 6 noodle type.
I pick the most thin noodle & it is soft & yummy.
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!
Absolutely outstanding dining experience at Restaurant Pinophyta. From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel welcome & cared for. Our server deserves special praise. They took the time to patiently explain each section, every dish, & even gave thoughtful recommendations without ever making us feel rushed. That kind of attention, knowledge, & genuine enthusiasm is rare, & it turned the whole evening into something special.
The food? Nothing short of incredible. The dumplings were tender & bursting with flavor, the noodles perfectly balanced, the clay pot rice, was rich & fragrant with that amazing crispy bottom layer, & the Dream Chicken lived up to its name. Truly unforgettable. Every dish felt crafted with care & delivered with pride.
The service, food, & staff were exceptional in every way. This restaurant doesn't just serve dinner, it delivers an experience. They deserve every bit of praise, & I can't wait to return.
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!
Have eaten a lot of noodles rice & dumplings in my life. This place is solid. Handmade everything. Portions are generous for the price & the service was fast & attentive. The clay pot rice was awesome, Dan Dan noodles was more sesame flavour than peanut which was lighter, dumplings were very good, chilled chilli chicken was great. No alcohol served here but definitely no big deal if you are looking for a delicious meal.
This menu features Chinese classics like Hainan chicken, beef noodle soup, & chilled beef shank. I found the flavours familiar but somewhat muted for the occidental palate but not their wallet. I suggest trekking to Chinatown or the suburbs for the real deal at lower prices & larger portions. The service & ambiance were impeccable.
Almost everything they have is to die for. From the dumplings, to the clay pot rice, to the noodles. It's a couple of older women cooking so the food is authentic & delicious.
Claypot rice beef & egg tastes good, crispy outside & soft interior! Noodle soup also yummy! Love place & nice service!
Delicious food, good portion, friendly service. Really liked the noodles we had, environment was also clean & spacious. Will definitely go again.
