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.
This is my kind of restaurant - delicious, homey, unpretentious & above all a great value for money. The portions were very generous & inexpensive, & the food was fantastic. I would highly recommend this restaurant.
From the UK, went to this resturant on my final night. Best Chinese meal I've ever had (I'd say it's more of a modern take than 100% traditional) & a highlight of the trip. Amazing taste & reasonably priced. A must go if you're in the area!

Delicious foods & nice staff. A bit crowded on evenings. The waitress was very busy, but the service was excellent. My top 1 favorite dish was the beef noodle soup, the beef broth was really tasty & we asked for a refill of noodles ( the noodles are unlimited!). The dumplings are good as well. My friends love it so much.
La nourriture est formidable! Absolument rien à dire, les saveurs, la fraîcheur, les textures, juste wow. En plus des prix qui sont très raisonnables. Excellente expérience. La soupe au boeuf braisé est simplement fantastique, à essayer assurément!
Great fusion Chinese food of northern style. Blend traditional style with new method. The owner test different dishes according to season. Some people might be used to "Cantonese" styled chinese food that is prevalent in MTL, & this food is more Northern. Strange how some people review bomb this restaurant without pointing out what's the problem with the food.

This small corner restaurant is homey, delicious, & the staff never stop moving as they attend to the different groups. I had the braised beef & rice, & a small cup of hot & sour soup: perfect for a cold night.
Delicious mushroom & bok choy dumplings & beef noodle soup! The soup portion was a little small for the price. I'd definitely go back for more dumplings!
Excellent restaurant ! Nous nous sommes régalés avec les entrées (gyozas, soupe aigre douce & rouleaux de printemps) & les plats (saumon flambé, nouilles huile piquante & le boeuf super fondant). Excellent rapport qualité prix avec des portions très généreuses !
J'ai pris les raviolis sichuanais ainsi que les raviolis au porc & à la crevette & je me suis régalé! C'était fort plaisant de sentir les morceaux de crevettes dans les raviolis, alors qu'à d'autres endroits c'est plutôt de la chaire de crevette broyée. D'ailleurs, les prix sont justes & les portions sont généreuses. Le service sur l'heure du midi était rapide, efficace & amical. Ma seule déception est de ne pas y être allé plus tôt alors que je vis au coin de la rue depuis plus d'un an! J'y retournerai, j'ai hâte de goûter plus de leurs saveurs délicieuses & authentiques.
Really love their food but the pepper beef with large noodles is my favourite so far! Good portion size & so yummy. The Szechuan dumplings are also great!
