A rice noodle roll is a Cantonese dish from Guangdong Province in southern China and Hong Kong, commonly served either as a snack, small meal or as a variety of dim sum.
Reviews present Yin Ji as a casual spot that serves authentic Cantonese and Hong Kong style dishes, with congee and rice noodle rolls as signatures and a menu that spans dim sum classics and Cantonese specialties. Dishes are described as fresh, delicate, and flavorful, with the congee and rice rolls frequently highlighted and the Hong Kong style drinks and milk tea praised for balance and refreshment. Ordering from a QR code and the loyalty stamp program are noted as convenient touches that encourage return visits. The new location in Brossard is repeatedly noted as brighter and more welcoming, though a few comments mention crowded spaces or the occasional service delay. While most sentiment centers on strong value and authentic flavors, some items are described as slightly bland or overly salty and a few portions or price points can feel steep, yet overall Yin Ji is viewed as a reliable spot for comforting Cantonese cuisine and all day dim sum.
The rice noodle rolls were as authentic as I remember them from a trip to Hong Kong. The rice porridge was also delicious. The black & gold bao bun is unique & an absolute must-try, & the sesame dessert brought back wonderful nostalgia.

Came here for dinner on a Saturday night, cozy & comfortable, not too busy, & impeccable service.
Ordered a braised beef noodle soup, the beef was spot on. Not too fat, not overcooked, tender & easy to mince. Definitely try it with the homemade chili oil. The oil ingredients are very generous, making it very savory without losing that extra punch.
One side of rice noodle with beef, shrimps & chive, the paste was slightly overcooked, losing it's smooth & silky texture.
For drink, a hk style coffee milk tea; not as silky as it should be, but the flavor is there.
Overall, very good experience & enjoyed very much the dinner. Keep up the great work.
If you come before 11am, prices are cheaper. The combos are 9.95$ for a congee, side & drink. The rice noodles were delicious & the congee was solid. Really enjoyed the shrimp rice roll & beef truffle one. Will come again for their early specials.
Faire attention si vous n'êtes pas habitué à ce type de cuisine. Comme Québécois qui aime les plats américanisés'type asiatiques' (general tao, rouleaux, soupe thai, etc.).... oh boy que c'est différent. Tout était visqueux &/ou mou avec de drôle de goûts, perso j'ai juste été capable de picosser dans l'assiette mais j'ai mangé ailleurs par la suite.
À voir les autres reviews c'est probablement moi le problème, mais si vous pensez avoir des goûts similaires.. faite attention à ce que vous commandez.
I am thrilled I found the new address for this restaurant!!! I have searched a long time! A little farther away, the new space is bright & welcoming! It truly merits the trip. All plates are delicious & prepared with care. The personnel is helpful & friendly. The best congee & the best rice rolls!! Go to taste them!
Definitely the best congee in town! I ordered the combo for 1 person: Laiwan assorted congee, beef with chives rice noodle roll & a glass of Hong Kong style iced milk tea. I was very hangry after being stuck in traffic on the Champlain Bridge during the Friday rush hour. I decided to give this place a try for the first time & oh boy, it ain't gonna be the last time that I will be coming here for some comforting food 😋 Even the shrimp rolls that I ordered for take out were equally amazing!
