Mary & her team are always wonderful to be greeted by & told about some of the specials that they are making. We started with the Hot & Sour Soup that can be had with it w/o pork if you're on a vegetarian diet. The two (2) of us had not tried the Ginger Lobster which is one of their signature dishes; as the lobsters are typically 1 1/4 - 1 1/2 pounds max & at $59.95 it is a pricey dish. But since we have not ordered it in over a year we dove in. The two (2) lobsters were closer to 1 1/4 lbs & well prepared but we remembered the ginger totally coating the shell & we found this lacking in our order - albeit the lobsters were delish. Instead of a Baby Bok Choy vegetable side, we were advised to try the Snow Pea Leaves that were to be lightly sautéed & seasoned with garlic. The dish did not disappoint. We decided against ordering their wonderful fried rice as we felt it would be too much & were right. All in all another very nice dining experience that makes us travel from the West Island of Montreal (+30 minutes at least) to enjoy the best Chinese Food in the city.'Do-Shay' To Mary & her highly attentive Staff!

According to records published by the province's Ministère de l'Agriculture, des Pêcheries & de l'Alimentation du Québec (MAPAQ), Restaurant VIP, a Chinese restaurant at 1077 rue Clark, was ordered to pay $11,300 in fines following two recent infractions.

Amazing food! Authentic, chinese food with the perfect level of spice & sweet. So many flavors. We really enjoyed the yummy dishes here. The wait time was not bad. 10-15 minutes. But that is expected in chinatown. The service was good. It is a busy restaurant so expect to wait for everything. But it is worth it because the food is amazing. Slightly noisy. We ordered 2 starters & 2 mains for 2 people.

Portions très généreuses & saveurs incroyables!
Tous les clients sont accueillis avec une théière de thé à la menthe, ce qui est très agréable.
Le menu est très varié & le service est impeccable.
Je recommande pour un bon repas asiatique!
