Review Summary

Rubis Rouge - Red Ruby Rouge draws mixed reactions from diners in Montreal, ranging from authentic Cantonese dim sum with cart service and generous portions to complaints about inconsistent taste, with some items like dumplings praised while others such as fried calamari are cold or bland. Several reviews note a pleasant, spacious, family friendly atmosphere and values that are as affordable as they seem, while service quality varies from warm and efficient to slow or gruff, sometimes adding charm but at times causing frustration. Menu information and billing can be confusing for non-French speakers, and one experience mentioned a mischarged order with shellfish and a push to tip, prompting caution about paying cash versus card. Yet many diners still call it one of the best budget friendly spots for dim sum in Chinatown, with nostalgia for the traditional cart service and frequent praise for specific dishes like sesame balls, chicken with garlic bok choy, and other favorites, and several long time visitors say the quality remains solid over the years. Overall, it feels like a classic, sometimes inconsistent but generally hearty option for authentic Chinese dim sum and Cantonese style dishes, best experienced with flexible expectations about service and menu details.

I was going to get roasted meats for takeout between 5:30 to 6 pm last night. The person who was cutting the roasted meats was very rude, I was still deciding what I wanted. She told me in Cantonese order now or leaves so I did. She was not the normal person who cut the roasted meats as she had a waitress uniform on & normally, the person has a chef uniform. It seems $20-$25 is nothing & customers loyalty is not important to them in today economy so I went to one of their competitors instead. She should be trained to provide better customer services. Lucky, I didn't get her as a waitress in any of my visits or she will get $0 tips with her bad attitude.

Très déçu 😞 de mon expérience. Les pattes de poulet sont fades, la sauce ne goûte rien ou ce n'est pas assaisonné correctement. Les calmars frits étaient froid 🥶. Les boulettes & dumplings étaient bonnes. Le service est slow. Ambiance est agréable. Meilleur Dim sum 🥟 ailleurs ;)

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.

One typical old style Chinese restaurant. Service was meh... Ok-ish, food was... eatable, won't call delicious. If it wasn't my parents wanted to eat dim sum, there could be loads of other choices in walking distance.

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.

In Montreal for the day with the family. They had an event when we were there, so the service was a little slow. We didn't mind because we were not in a rush. The food were delicious! I recommend this place.

Authentic, Generous, & Unforgettable

Had dinner at Ruby Rouge Restaurant yesterday & was genuinely impressed. The food is absolutely delicious - rich in flavor, beautifully presented, & unmistakably authentic Chinese cuisine. Every dish felt like it was crafted with care & tradition.

Service was warm, attentive, & efficient throughout the evening. What really stood out was the pricing: more than affordable considering the generous portions & high quality. You truly get incredible value here.

I'll definitely be going back - & I highly recommend Ruby Rouge to anyone looking for a satisfying, authentic dining experience in Montreal.

Typical Chinese Dim Sum.
Not my first not my last visit.

Chinese friends helped us with our order. Ate at 1pm on a Monday. Limited but adequate choices on the trollies.

Overall satisfied with under $20 with tax & tip.

It was impossible to have information in French or English for the menu. at the end when we went to pay, the cashier did not want to give me my money back & she told me that the rest of the money was for the tip . don't pay them in cash, pay them in credit card.

Randomly went in here. Though we were seated quickly for a weekend, the service was slow. The food was tasteless. One of the worst dim sum experiences in Montreal. We also had ordered a noodle dish for kids & it never arrived & we had to chase after the servers to get it & it eventually arrived when the rest of us were almost done our meal. We asked for the bill & had to chase after the server to receive that too. Overall not a great experience. Pricing was similar to other dim sum restaurants so I would suggest checking another place instead.

Poor to mediocre service, food is poor to mediocre at best as well. Service is mediocre at best. This restaurant is still in business only because there is a lack of decent Chinese restaurants in the metropolitan area of Montreal. Not sure if I would recommend it to friends & family to be honest, but the place is considered somewhat accessible as it's in downtown, affordable as in it's not the most expensive restaurant & the servers are nicer to you if you are a regular.. Their morning dim sum (drink tea) specials before 11:00 is usually a pretty good deal.

Their plate of noodles seem to be a bit bigger now than before.
