Rizière receives praise for a menu that blends authentic Cantonese and Szechuan flavors with creative twists, featuring dumplings, beef noodle soup, spicy noodles, and salmon dishes alongside rice and noodle bowls that are worth trying; guests note generous portions, reasonable prices, and friendly, attentive service in a clean, cozy space, making it a reliable pick for gatherings, dates, or casual meals; many reviews call it a hidden gem and a must visit in Montreal, while a few dishes are described as a touch salty or oily and a winter visit in January was uncomfortably cold, yet the overall sentiment is enthusiastic and many say they would return and recommend Rizière to friends and family.
Fantastic little place if you're in the area & feel like Chinese food. Service is fast & the food quality is outstanding. My favorite spot if going out for an event in the Plateau.
Très belle expérience. Très propre, un menu simple mais avec du végétarien, viande, fruits de mer. Service parfait avec gentillesse. Qualité des ingrédients. Le petit moins avec la porte simple la soirée d'automne, suggestion d'apportez votre petite veste & sonnerie de la cuisine très présente pour ne pas dire dérangeante
Food: I’ve been craving laksa & the one they make here definitely hit the spot! The broth was flavourful & the chicken was tender. I only wish they added more toppings like fish cakes & tofu puffs.
Entry: We were two on a Saturday night & we were lucky, only had to wait 5-10 minutes to get a table.
Note: Another customer ordered a scorched salmon dish & they flame the dish in front of you. Definitely want to try that next.
