Nestled in the heart of Montreal's Chinatown and located a few steps away from many of the major hotels and tourist sites (including the Convention Center), the Ruby Rouge Restaurant offers a real attraction for the downtown area. Serving tantalizing seafood, authentic Cantonese and spicy Szechuan cuisines as well as Chinese Hotpots, it's the perfect destination for wedding banquets, meetings, shows, private functions and special occasions. Dim Sum is served in the renowned Hong Kong style on roaming carts or at pre-set luncheons in private rooms. Ruby Rouge Restaurant boasts a two-tiered seafood tank is filled with selections of geoducks, lobsters, prawns, live scallops, abalone, rock cod, sole, oysters, and Dungeness Crabs. With two elegant banquet rooms and smaller private rooms available, the Ruby Rouge Restaurant can accommodate 650 guests, it's the ideal choice for family and friends to get together and celebrate.
Rubis Rouge - Red Ruby Rouge serves classic Cantonese dim sum with cart service and generous portions at approachable prices, drawing praise for authentic flavors, variety, and a spacious, family friendly setting, but reviews also flag inconsistency in taste and timing, with some dishes described as fresh and tasty and others as bland or cold, and service ranging from warm and attentive to slow or curt. Language and billing issues appear in a few visits, and a few diners note a lack of clear menu information in English or French or confusion over substitutions. Overall it remains a go to option for affordable dim sum in Montreal's Chinatown, with several mentions of good value and tradition, while others suggest exploring alternatives for more consistent quality.
Not impressed . They served us fried squid super hard from the day before I'm sure . I've had better. Order the meal for 2 . Expensive & not that good ... the dimsums are what you are going for ... maybe next time ... but we paid 76$ including tip for 2 people & I was still hungry .... mehhhh

Third visit to Ruby Rouge & we were a little nervous going in because of the influx of negative reviews. I want to say I have no idea what these reviewers were talking about, we had a lovely time. We did dim sum this time, & the only issue was getting something we didn't order & not getting one thing we tried to order. But that probably just comes down to a miscommunication with multiple language barriers! We didn't love all the food but that's what happens when you try something new. The delicious food was delicious as always, & we tried some new things that we loved! We ordered way too much, though! Leftovers for tomorrow!

Taste wise, its mid-decent. The service however is bad. They are always understaffed, making it impossible to ask for something. Often times, they would forget the stuff we asked for, like extra plates or utensils. I get it, its busy. But it doesn't mean they should expect us to understand them & just stay the same. They should hire more workers so that they can manage the customers that they let in.
The place is very clean. Nice. The staff is nice & friendly. The atmosphere is very party & warm. But the food could be better. During an event, they'd bring you meat & seafood about 2-3 times (like pork, beef, lobster) but no rice or vegetables. Rice came almost at the end. The food was too oily. One water bottle cost 10$ which is more expensive than a beer which is $7. I'd give the place 2 stars. I don't recommend it
This restaurant's rating is too low. I have NEVER been disappointed with this place. I've ordered like 20 times. Always good, dependable... order never wrong etc... Underrated Chinatown stop.
Located on the 2nd floor. We had some difficulties finding which door to enter from on the ground level but eventually found the right one. There is an underground garage across the street where we parked. $10 CAD for under 2 hours.
Came here for dim sum on a Thursday afternoon. Got seated right away. Pretty big space with lots of tables. They accept credit cards including Amex. Dim sum was good, I got my usuals that I normally get in NYC. The cart rotations were on the slower side but we weren’t in a rush. You know it’s good dim sum when you see the grannies. They also have a la carte items you can order. We got the lobster with noodles & a fried tofu dish.
Staff can be rude but otherwise it was fine. Ignoring that, the place is very nice. The food was great too. It's supposed to be like a 'fine dining' experience but there are many people there casually. Kid friendly more or less.
Ordered take out. They have an extensive amount of vegan dishes, including tofu, rice, noodle & faux meat dishes. The vegetable dumplings with peanut butter sauce is delicious. Cheap prices & delicious food.
Toujours aussi excellent les Dim Sum de ce resto-ci depuis ma jeunesse! Ma préférée de toutes les autres au Quartier-Chinois à Mtl! Service à la clientèle toujours très attentionné & très amical! Un beau compliment au Chef! & Merciii!
