About

Rubis Rouge - Red Ruby Rouge serves a specialized menu centered on traditional Szechuan cooking techniques. Diners encounter a selection of bold, piquant preparations that highlight the iconic numbing spice of peppercorns alongside fresh aromatics. The culinary approach focuses on the authentic interplay of heat and texture inherent to Southwestern Chinese regional styles. Menu offerings include various stir-fried meats, vegetable-forward plates, and complex savory broths seasoned with house-made chili oils. The interior provides a functional, straightforward space designed for focused consumption of these vibrant, heat-forward dishes. This establishment maintains a commitment to consistent flavor profiles by prioritizing classic seasoning methods over modern fusion interpretations. Each dish reflects the foundational principles of Szechuan gastronomy through deliberate spice application and structural balance.

Review Summary

Rubis Rouge - Red Ruby Rouge is a spacious, bustling venue in Montreal known for its traditional Cantonese-style dim sum served via roving carts, making it a popular choice for large groups and communal gatherings. While many diners appreciate the authentic, generous portions and consistent value, experiences regarding food quality and service efficiency vary significantly among patrons. Some guests enjoy the classic atmosphere and find the staff helpful, whereas others report inconsistent seasoning, occasional language barriers, and issues with service speed or professionalism. Although it remains a go-to spot for many regulars, potential visitors should be aware of mixed feedback concerning billing transparency and the varying levels of attentiveness from the staff.

Went their for dim sum yesterday, & even thought the place is not packed, the service was extremely slow.. we waited almost an hour & we had : a tray of xiu mai, a tray of dumpling, a bowl of porc chop ( with almost nothing in it but bones & fat), & a dish of very cold shrimp. That's it. 4 dishes in 1 hour. We flagged down different waitresses to ask for service & for the ladies who push the food cart too but no one cared. The worst thing ? All of that costed us 31$ & when we said we don't want to give tips because of bad service, the lady at the cashier , not only did not care about our feedbacks , but kinda blame us for not calling the cart ladies enough . If there was a 0 star that would be my most accurate rating.

Good dim sum service with the carts! Usually best to go after 11am. Good variety of items & prices.

Classic Cantonese dim sum that still has cart service at brunch. The food is fresh & tasty & the service ranges from excellent to curmudgeonly but isn't that the charm? Don't be put off by reviews that don't understand the humor in gruff service. Super spacious so easy for groups.

I went to the Ruby Rouge for dim sum today around noon & we were three. The resto was about 75% full & we were seated quickly upon arrival. The resto didn't look modern but was still nice with its nostalgic warm old school Chinese decor. Our waitress was quick & friendly. The food was fresh, hot & good. However, even though the restaurant wasn't full there were no more food carts passing by us anymore after only two passed by. We waited about 20 minutes without food & decided to leave after looking everywhere & saw there was no one pushing any dim sum carts in the whole very big restaurant. We weren't the only ones waiting for food. They looked understaffed with their waiters & waitresses running around & no one pushing the dim sum carts at some point, I've never seen that before anywhere. I wouldn't go back there if I were starving but would go back with friends to catch up & take our time to eat & chat because the food & service were good & it's a nice place but the waiting was also very long to the point we left still hungry.

Authentic Dim sum cart service in a banquet hall style place. You can order a la carte earlier & the carts come around about 10:30. It was authentic & everything we had was tasty. Service was fine. They asked if we wanted things earlier for the kids we had with us before the carts came around. Enjoyed the experience & would come back!

We were craving dim sum while in Montreal. This restaurant located on the 2nd floor inside a small mall. We were seated quickly & was asked what tea we wanted. Was nice to see push cart ordering here. We ordered five dishes to try. Overall the quality of the dim sum was average. We went on a Friday & it was not too busy so it could explain why some of the dim sum wasn't as fresh. The fried squid was cold & a bit rubbery. The har gow was decent.

Went on a Sunday, usually the most busy day for dim sum. Waited 20 for pot of tea, food carts were very few & far between (I had to get up to look for food with the bill), & when I did finish a dish they were accumulating on my table cause there was no one to take them away. I even had to go get my own hot water to refill my tea pot. Also, if you don't believe in shrinkflation, it's hell of a real thing. All & I mean ALL the food is smaller, but prices are higher. & now they charge .50 for a takeaway box. If you're gonna go that far too Chinatown for Chinese food from the suburbs, might as well drive to the west island & go to imperial right off the 40. Red ruby has changed & not for the better.

It's not the fanciest - nor the prettiest - but the Dim Sum here is classic & is brought around by fun women pushing carts. A classic in Montreal.
