It was our first trip to Rivière together, & it was absolutely wonderful! The staff are so friendly & can recommend dishes based on what you like. Each dish has a unique flavour. I especially loved the Spicy Beef Noodle Soup; I'd definitely go back for it. The Dan Dan noodles & lamb stew were also excellent. It was tough to pick just one, but all four of us were very happy & finally found the authentic Chinese flavours in Rivière. I would highly recommend it!

Absolutely wonderful dining experience! The signature sea intestine rice is still absolutely fantastic. Every dish we ordered tastes incredible.

For appetizers, marinated beef tongue & raw-marinated salmon are my top picks. The beef tongue is incredibly tender & fully infused with savory sauce.

Their newly launched laksa is a must-try! It has a distinct Thai creamy coconut flavor. The special black noodles are springy with a one-of-a-kind texture. The red-braised lamb goes perfectly with rice & is super satisfying. All the other dishes & the dessert cake are also lovely. Highly recommend this restaurant!

Very good Chinese food - authentic taste & feel. The beef noodles with mustard greens, the dumplings, & the steamed egg were all really delicious. Definitely worth a try if you're around.

We had a really great dining experience here! The food was fresh, flavorful, & beautifully presented. The dumplings were especially impressive - juicy, perfectly cooked, & packed with filling. The noodles were rich & satisfying, with a great balance of toppings & texture.

We also tried a few cold dishes, which were refreshing & well-seasoned, perfect as starters. The beef with rice was tender & comforting, with a delicious savory sauce that paired perfectly with the rice.

The portions were generous, & everything tasted homemade & authentic. The service was friendly & efficient, & the overall atmosphere was clean & welcoming.

Definitely a place I would come back to & recommend to friends!

This place is very creative, & you can really feel that from the way the dishes are presented & flavored.

The salmon was definitely distinctive & visually impressive, but it leaned a bit too salty, likely from the sauce. It made a strong first impression, though the saltiness became more noticeable as we continued eating.

For sides, we ordered the tofu skin, which was light, refreshing, & very clean in flavor - this one I would absolutely recommend. The chicken was also quite refreshing & nicely balanced.
The vegetable dish with shrimp looked appealing, but it was slightly salty as well, & the texture felt a little undercooked, which took away from the experience.

We also tried the spicy beef noodle, but this dish was quite oily, making it less enjoyable overall & not something I'd recommend.

Overall, I'd still give this place 5 stars for creativity. Almost every dish feels exciting at the first bite & makes you curious. However, as you continue eating, some dishes feel too salty, while others lean too oily.

If you enjoy inventive ideas & bold flavors, it's definitely worth trying - just keep in mind that not every dish is perfectly balanced.

I love this place so much, one of my favorite restaurants in Montreal.
However, I'm super super sad that they don't have the tomato beef stew noodle anymore. That was the best dish from them & my heart has a void that cannot be filled.
