Montreal restaurants located within a 5 minute walk of Place-dArmes Station | Ratings, Reviews & Maps

The food is incredible!! 5 stars!!! Nothing else is 5 stars: the ambiance, the service, the cleanliness. I learned about this Restaurant Beijing on a food tour- our guide said she and her family would visit here weekly for dinner! I can see why- the food is delicious! The menu is vast so everyone can find something. The gals at the front counter had a lovely, vibrant energy! The male servers could take a lesson from them. I understand it’s always busy but a smile and a “Bonjour” would be the bare minimum. And there wasn’t even that. The bathrooms were atrocious. Use the hand sanitizer at the front counter. You pay at the front… otherwise you’re just sitting there.

Excellent shrimp fried rice and very good service. The fried rice has amazing wok flavor. The wonton soup was only ok. It’s nice they serve hot tea and give fortune cookie for dessert. Reasonable price.

Quaint Chinese restaurant in Chinatown with prompt and courteous service. The Beef Chow Ho was quite good as was the eggplant with tofu and pork. I appreciate how simple and straightforward this place is, and the food did not disappoint for a quick Chinese lunch.

I liked it, be careful tho the soups are really hot, but they were really good, we had won ton soup and duck soup, never had duck soup before, it was a good experience, the sweet and sour pineapple pork was really delicious and crispy, and the pad Thai was missing a little flavour, but there’s soya sauce on the table, but still overall I liked my experience here, the staff was amazing and attentive, very quick with food and cleaning the tables, and “the washrooms are dirty, even the walls(my husband says)”

Our family loves Beijing Restaurant! We eat here almost every time we are in town. We are vegetarian and there are plenty of options for us. My absolute favourite is the hot and sour soup. The vegetarian spring rolls are also delicious (they are gigantic and different from what you would normally get, but SO good). It's a staple for us!

We were a group of friends, 5 people. The place is in Chinatown and small. It doesn't accept reservations, but the line is fast (we waited 10 min). The service was incredibly kind, funny, fast and attentive. We celebrated a friend's bday and 2 friends who are becoming fathers and the staff started to sing with us 🤣 they kept our desserts in their fridge (very nice of em). The best part is the food, oh boy so delicious!! The portions super huge (i suggest to share) and very cheap (5 people, average of 2 plates each person, 81$🥲). 5 stars definitely deserved! I suggest to try house noodles beef with broccoli! They accept only cash, but the ATM is just in front the restaurant (right after the street lights, behind the corner).

hi! a cute little place, we got our good very fast and our waiter was very attentive if needed. we ordered general tao, it did not look nor taste like the usual red general tao, but was very tasty nonetheless. the noodles were plenty, could have used more veggies!

Very tasty food, and one of the more affordable spots in Chinatown! Lunch runs us about 30$ for two people and is always filling and delicious. It may not serve the BEST dumplings in the area, but we still find ourselves returning for the coziness, comfort food, & low price. Oh, and remember to bring cash!!!

Great location with amazing staff. The restaurant is cozy and clean. The service is super quick. Food is good too. I'd love to try the noodles next time.

Unassuming restaurant, classic hole-in-the-wall style, with fantastic house noodles! Ordered the #2 hot and sour soup, #12 soup dumplings, and #19 pork and spicy vegetables soup for a fantastic trip down Noodle Road! (cash only)

The food was delicious, lots of options and you can mix the sauces, broth or spices for unique flavors. The servers checked in often and were a delight. Recommend the combo dishes as they have lots of different items to enjoy

Came in for some Japanese fondue on a rainy day which turned out to be just the.right choice. The classic combo gives you a good and balanced amount of delicious food. The atmosphere and setup are great. Service was impeccable. We had a great dining experience.

Great shabu-shabu. Well served portions and really good. Loved the Konjac noodles as a keto and diabetic friendly option! The seating is very limited and it is all counter sitting.

Amazing spot for Shabu Shabu in Chinatown - Montreal. Delicious food (big potions), attentive and friendly service. We will be back again for sure!

The kids are obsessed with the cupcakes here—they’re gone in a blink. This place brings back all the feels from when we used to come before having kids.

I asked for a murder mystery cake theme and it was Perfect!!! It tasted delicious as well. Soo happy
Anabelle Voisard - a week ago

I used to buy the cupcakes since the early years of Les Glaceurs. They were so delicious, always fresh and more affordable, I feel like the quality has really went down, the icing is much more sweeter and the cake is not moist. I’ve bought them as few times the past year or so and it happened more than once that the cupcakes were not fresh. I’ve giving many tries, but Im really disappointed.

We came here for a quick bite while exploring the area. Definitely recommended. There are two entrances - the street side on St Catherine Street and one from inside Complexe Desjardins. We went for a regular coffee, a Dragon fruit Aqua Fresca, a Peach Ice Tea, an Oats muffin, a Caprese sandwich and Falafel wrap. Everything was great, except for Falafel where sweet potatoes tasted out of place. The lady at the counter was very patient (as we took a little more than usual time to decide the order) and friendly. Great service. It's a pedestrian street, at least during summer I think, so parking can be tricky near St Catherine Street. Definitely recommended!!

I liked a lot, good coffe, nice client service and my sandwich and muffin was great. I give 4 stars to atmosphere because is in mall, but is nice place.

I was at the lower level Cafe Depot in the food court of Complexe Desjardin on Saturday, January 14, 2023 at about 18h30, and the person making the coffee (sorry I didn't get your name) was amazing. She was the only employee so there was a significant line up, but she took care to make everyone feel special. My Americano was perfect.

Had brunch in the private room for a bachelorette party. The private room is great so would recommend for an event, very spacious we had 10 people and there was plenty of space. It was a set brunch menu, picture attached. We arrived on time and our table was not ready so we did wait about 10 minutes or so in the lounge so recognizing they were likely busy and understaffed. The service was very very slow, with such a large group in the private dining room you would expect a more attentive service. Getting coffee and mimosas probably took a good 20-30 minutes and the food only arrived about 45 minutes after placing the order. The whole brunch took probably 2.5-3 hours. The basket of fresh croissants and baked goods were incredible! They were warm and tasty! The rest of the brunch menu was mediocre. The latte was alright. We were given espresso martinis version of a shot at the end of the brunch on the house, which was a nice touch. The washrooms are very nice and clean.

My mom and I stayed at the hotel where this restaurant is located and decided to stop by the bar for a couple of drinks. (So glad we did!) The host greeted us warmly and seated us at the bar. Our bartender, a friendly and attentive young gentleman named Shady, provided excellent service. He recommended the duck confit and crafted some incredible drinks—trust his recommendations if you ever have the chance! The service was amazing, and I would definitely come back (:

Lovely restaurant, great food, good atmosphere. Nice indoor ambience, lovely outdoor seating area with great views of Skyscrapers backdrop and lovely sunrise and sunset view. I had a heart experience here, short wait time, responsive and helpful staff, there waiters were very professional, polite and friendly. The meal tasted great with overall lovely presentation. The cost was also very reasonable. Highly recommend! 👌🏿

The waiter/manager is extremely unprofessional. I went there for our reservation and he told us that the table is not ready and need 5-10 min. I was okay with that and waited by the room he guided me to. I was never called after almost 20min. When I got back, there are plenty of tables empty ( at least 30%) but they never came for us. The waiter who are in the suits( maybe manager) seemed busy but do not want to even explain to me about the situation. I asked for table by myself to have an empty table in the non-fully-booked room. The water was never ready and the bread is never served until we asked. There are some waiters that are nice but the one in the suit is not as good as how he served other table. Our plates were never replaced between different meals. Huge disappointment for such large and famous restaurants.

I went there for lunch with my wife, and we wanted to try their "Beef filet mignon" and their "Lobster with Sabayon" but unfortunately this was impossible as they were serving only brunch with a unique menu for the holiday period! This could have been easily avoided if they had mentioned it on their website!!! Anyways we ended up eating the "Poulet Gaufré" and the "Bénédictines au confit de Canard" and they tasted good enough! The service was good and the ambiance too but we were disappointed because of the misunderstanding I mentioned earlier!

After a long bus tour, we were alighted at the China town gates, the tour guide recommendedstopto go into China Town. As we entered, Mai Xiang dumplings caught our eye. The staff was welcoming, and we sat and ordered Hot and Sour Soup, pan friend lamb, and pork dumplings. The soup was very good and so were the dumplings. Service was excellent.
Nini Kaur - 5 months ago

The food was absolutely amazing! Although I had to wait an extremely long time for the food. The juicy dumplings are truly juicy. For a cheap price, you get heaven in your mouth!
Anita Sinn - 2 months ago

Very delicious dumplings. I shared with my friends and we split the bill, and the price in total was quite fair or “cheaper than I expected.” The staff was also very friendly. A staff we talked to was multilingual, speaking Chinese (Mandarin and Canton), Japanese, English and French it was mind blowing.

You can’t be in the area and not try these! I was in the area for the weekend and came here for lunch twice! From the perfect consistency of the bao, to the flavours of the broth and perfectly seasoned filling, it’s 10/10 Heads up, it’s a cash only but they do have an atm ($2.50 fee) should you forget to grab some cash.

Recommend any of the signature dishes here. We tried the BBQ Pork, Duck, and chicken. Everything together was well balanced, all was very tasty. The staff was attentive and kind. The Bruce Lee decor was cool to see.

Disclaimer: I went to this restaurant at the end of the day, about an hour and a half before closing on a Monday. So I'm not going to judge too harshly. I really enjoyed the vibe. I kept thinking I was in a movie in the 80s. Which is great. The service was great. I'd like to try another dish before I make a final judgment. Because the chicken fried rice and dumplings were super good. My BBQ beef was a little "bony." What can I say? I'd still recommend it, though. Also, it wasn't super expensive for what you got!

Really nice, calm spot for a meal! Great food and friendly service . The egg noodles with charsiu meat was absolutely delicious 🥰
Jen Nguyen - 3 weeks ago

Food was a 3/5 for us, the meats (bbq pork and duck) were both just too salty which perhaps we are the outliers who find that many restaurants in Montreal serve extremely salty meat. Loved the laid back ambience and staff tho. Would return for a nice cold ice tea out of the hot sun.
JCVN - 8 months ago

definitely do not recommend this place. the food didn't have a taste except for the spring rolls. i had to wait 15 minutes to get the key for the bathroom and the waiters forgot our drinks even though we reminded them twice.

Well, I'm writing to say the reviews are, in fact, real. This is a great spot for soup and noodles. It says it all in the name. I had a great lunch here this past week, and I'd certainly recommend it to anyone looking for great food at a good value. The portion size was insane. But the meat was quite fatty; if you're into that, then order double meat, I guess. I don't love it super fatty, but the broth and the noodles were amazing. Also, the staff was super nice and the food came quickly. Just to note, they serve no alcohol there and they have a neat grocery store down the stairs in the restaurant.

If you’re a noodle lover visiting Montreal, Nouilles de Lan Zhou is a must-stop destination. I arrived for an early lunch with my family at 11:15 AM, and the timing couldn’t have been better—no wait, and we got a cozy spot in their lively Chinatown location. We ordered the medium-sized bowls of their signature hand-pulled beef noodle soup. To our surprise, the “medium” was enormous, definitely generous enough to satisfy a hearty appetite. The broth was light yet full of depth, with just the right amount of spice to warm you up on a cold Montreal day. The thinly sliced beef melted in the mouth, while the noodles, freshly pulled to order, had that perfect balance of chew and tenderness. The bowl is also a visual delight, topped with vibrant cilantro, green onions, chili oil, and a dollop of spicy bean paste that packs a punch if you mix it in. Pro tip: Come hungry or share a bowl if you’re not a big eater! Overall, this spot delivers authentic flavors and excellent value for money. Be sure to arrive early because it’s easy to see how this place fills up quickly! Would I return? Absolutely!

The place was super packed during the lunch time we were there and after tried them out I have no doubts why! We waited about 15 mins to get the table which is okay, not sure if it wasn't lunch time you would have to wait but maybe avoid that period of time is you're super hungry! However, the small size of noodle bowl is super big for such a good price!!! Very affordable place to dine in. You can pick your noodle type as well and quality of food is beyond what you paid for. Everything from the soup to noodle is fantastic!!! Freshly made noodle! Another place I highly recommended to go!

The flavor of the noodles is very good. It tends to get full really fast so expect some waiting time after 5pm. I got the dandan and I loved it. Service is very efficient and prices are fair, the portions are very good. Also there's an Asian market inside if you want to get something :)

If you're in the mood for a fun dining experience with tasty food, you absolutely need to check out Nouilles de Lan Zhou! One of the coolest things about this noodle shop is watching the chefs craft fresh noodles right in front of you—it's such a mesmerizing sight! The noodles are chewy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The menu is packed with a great variety, so there’s definitely something for everyone to enjoy. Honestly, I’ve had the best hand-pulled noodles here! You can pick the size of your dish, whether you want small or large, the thickness of the noodles, and even how spicy you’d like the soup. The meat is super tender, and the rich beef broth is just mouthwatering! Plus, the portions are huge and the prices are really reasonable. The service is top-notch as well! You’re in for a treat!
