Troisième fois à la Rizière & toujours aussi bien servie par tout le personnel & régalée par les bons plats à la carte ! Je recommande particulièrement le plat au saumon (plats F1) ainsi que le M4 & le nouveau Kra Pao, délicieux; en entrée les dumplings aux arachides en valent le détour ! Je reviendrai !
Been wanting to try this place forever now & I finally did, it was very good! The quantity of dumplings provided was absurd in a good way, & they were delicious. I also loved the noodles.
Walking into Rizière in Montreal is always a treat for the senses. The bustling atmosphere, combined with the savoury aromas wafting from the kitchen, immediately sets the stage for an authentic experience. I recently tried their spicy beef with rice & it was absolutely exquisite. The Dumplings were perfectly prepared crisp on the outside, tender & flavourful inside. The service was prompt, friendly, & attentive, ensuring our tea cups were never empty. If you are looking for top-notch Cantonese cuisine (or Szechuan, depending on the restaurant), this is easily one of the best spots in the city. A must-visit for any serious food lover!
My first time going here & not ordering dumplings! I'm so glad we decided to try the dandan noodles & the black bean saucy noodles. Both were so delicious, the noodles had the perfect chew, & everything was really flavourful. The dandan noodles were a bit different than at most places I've tried (a bit more of a creamy broth at the bottom- delicious!) but I loved them anyway.

Honnêtement exceptionnel. C'est notre rituel immanquable chaque fois qu'on est à Montreal, on se trouve même parfois des excuses pour se rendre dans la grandville (on est près de Sherbrooke) & manger à la Rizière.
Il m'est arrivé de faire un rêve légèrement érotique centré autour de leurs dumplings.
C'est rendu difficile d'apprécier des rouleaux impériaux avec les leurs comme comparatif.
Si je n'étais pas moralement en désaccord avec les services de livraison de nourriture, la Rizière aurait certainement ruiné mes économies.
Merci au gens derrière cet endroit, grâce à vous Montréal est devenu pour nous'observer le flot humain de Mont-Royal piéton en sirotant un exceptionnel thé glacé maison.'
100% recommend to my brother, mother, grandmother, grandchildren, personal reincarnation.
Just went there a couple of hours ago - honestly, no words for how good it was! We got the dumplings, chow mein, & the salmon. Everything was amazing. Totally recommend it!

Really enjoyed all the food! Super delicious & filling. Big portions as well! We shared everything we got & were able to try the beef dumplings, beef chilli noodles & the torched salmon!! A spot I will definitely be visiting again.
Great neighbourhood gem. I went for takeout on a rainy Friday night. Had the Szechuan dumplings & the beef laksa with thin noodles. Amazing. Spicy. Comforting. I'm so satisfied & I will definitely go back & bring friends & family.
My friend & I ordered two noodles & one dumpling. Overall the taste was OK, but my beef fried noodles was really salty & the portion was not big, I didn't even feel full.
Loved this place. We had wonderful chili & sour soup & Sichuan style dumplings to start, then tasty tofu Laksa & flavorful braised beef noodle soup. Also, an amazing value & very friendly service. 5 stars.

C'était un véritable délice ! Nous avons pris trois entrées : une soupe aigre-douce, un trio de tofu & des dumplings au boeuf. Ensuite, nous avons dégusté trois plats principaux : une soupe de boeuf braisé aux nouilles, une soupe Laksa au poulet & nouilles de riz avec du lait de coco, & pour finir, un plat de saumon frais flambé, un véritable plaisir pour les yeux en cette soirée de réveillon. Tout était vraiment très bon, voire délicieux. Le menu n'est pas surchargé de propositions, ce qui, à mon avis, garantit la fraîcheur des produits & permet au chef de maîtriser parfaitement ses plats, servis rapidement. N'hésitez surtout pas à essayer ce petit restaurant, qui offre une décoration agréable & une propreté irréprochable, une qualité malheureusement rare à Montréal.
