The food is authentically Cantonese & full of flavor. I love the hainan chicken rice & their noodles. The service is really friendly & welcoming. 100% recommended.
Nice Chinese restaurant. The beef & eggs stone pot rice is flavourful. It comes with a soup as well. Chicken rice with a lot of ginger on it. Personally i like ginger, so i dont mind. Appetizers are tasty especially the deep fried pork. Cold served spicy chicken is juicy.
One of the very few restaurants in Montreal that have Hainan chicken & it's very delicious. The shrimp wonton soup & claypot rice are wonderful as well. It's a hidden gem in Montreal & I'll be coming back for sure.
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.
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.
I think I had a too high of expectation on the clay pot rice… food was overall decent but nothing stood out for me unfortunately. The serving was really quick though which was rather shocking cause I would assume it takes a bit more time which is probably why the rice wasn't hot enough…
Fantastic authentic food! The claypot rice was delicious, & so were the appetizers. Will be coming back to try their noodles!
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 👍🏻👍🏻
Stopped by here with my lady for a quick lunch & it was perfect! Not too pricy, looks very nice, & the food came out quick!! We both got rice bowls & they fill you up - I have a black hole for a stomach so that was an important factor for me.
Good stuff!!
This is a hidden gem. The food is wonderful - you have a great selection of northern & southern Chinese food - & it's very delicious. Terracotta rice / clay pot rice is just like what you can get in Hong Kong. We arrived at around 12:40PM on a Friday & the food was served quite quickly. Reasonable portion for a reasonable price, I would even say it's a bargain because how delicious it was. Restaurant is very clean & staff is very nice. I would definitely come back here again.
Enjoyed their signature fried rice earlier. Will definitely come back. No photos as we destroyed everything.
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!
Amazing food! Had the mushroom claypot rice, which was delicious. Added a tiny bit of soy sauce & a lot of chili oil for more oomph. Turns out, the kitchen is super accommodating that they take allergies & other dietary considerations to account.
E.g. if you want your Dan Dan mien to be vegetarian, they'll remove the pork & add more veggies!
Definitely a must-visit. New menu doesn't disappoint.
We've been here maybe 5 times already & loved it each time. The mouth watering chicken & century eggs are always my go to apps. I really like the clay pot rice dishes too. The new hainanese chicken is so good, & the braised beef dishes too!
Very authentic Cantonese food. Claypot rice is SO good! Nice service too. Seafood spring roll is a must try. Wonton soup is a must have. Freshly homemade…
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.
Rice tasted so artificial along with the shrimp. Dumplings were good but I can't really over look how the rice tasted. Service was good.
The code may have bugs, but the taste of this restaurant will not !
When I was a kid, the streets of Canton were lined with rows of fragrant clay pot rice sizzling outside of the food stalls, drizzled with oil & a special soy sauce. Just walking by ,it would make your mouth water. The chef would fan the stove while tilting the pot to ensure even heating…
In the downtown, Pinophyta uses a cast iron pot to cook the rice from top to bottom, resulting in a perfect crusty bottom without sticking to the pot. However, compared to Canton's clay pot rice, it lacks that charred flavor.
But I still finish a whole pot !
Incredible food. Easily the best clay pot rice in Montreal I've had so far. So we split a spicy beef clay pot rice, a mushroom clay pot rice, a hainanese chicken rice & a shrimp fried rice, the set meals also came with a soup which was quite nice. The best in my opinion was the mushroom clay pot & the hainanese chicken rice, both kept me salivating between bites. The best treat though of course is the crispy rice at the bottom of the clay pots. Bro I'd fight the table for the last bite of that. 10/10 I'd go again, & order less rice dishes & try some of the other stuff on the menu like those dumplings, because damn they looked good too. Oh yeah, interior & atmosphere was great, bring a date here, cause it does feel swanky.
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.
