    So not worth walking 1 mile to this joint from my hotel!

    I ordered a bowl of shrimp soup noodles and asked them to add some wontons and charge me extra. The noodles were too soft.  You can just swallow them without using your teeth! Wontons were small and a few.  So were the shrimp. At least there was plenty of vegetables.  The price tag: CAN$10.52 with all the taxes.  I can do a lot better in my own neighborhood.

    Just a heads up..... if you're an attractive woman going to eat with girlfriends beware. The man serving the food can be very touchy. Its nothing bad but just be aware that it can happen.
    To me its just a side note considering the food is soooo good.

    My favourites are still #7 and #20

    Cheap food, but most of the dishes I've tried are way too greasy and that ruins it for me.  I would go there all the time if every dish I ordered wasn't swimming in oil.  Even at that price there is better in Chinatown.  It doesn't matter if the noodles are homemade if you're mostly just slurping oily sauce while eating them.

    The peanut dumplings are pretty good!

    Best dumplings ever. Super fast service, and home made noodles make for an awesome food experience.  And it's really cheap. What more do you need?

    You know, every once in a while, I am pleasently surprised.  I like food... and I like Chinese food the best.  I may not be Chinese, but I know what has good flavour and what does not.  My wife and I thought we would try this place out on a recent trip to Montreal.  Glad we did.  Nothing I ate was greasy - including the crispy rolls. Was the service the best?  Was the place kind of cramped?  Would I have preferred my soft drink in a big glass rather than a can?  Yeah, I guess those things could be improved, but for my my money, this place has some really great tasting food.  

    PS: Cash only - not a big deal because there is a CIBC and HSBC only seconds away, but it was not obvious to me on the web site.

    The Zhao Jiang Noodles (chinese spagetti) is amazing!  I go there mostly for that.  Always a lot of people there.  

    Thank you you (seriously, listen to the guy).

    Cool sliding door - transparent CHINESE kitchen for all to see and Fresh dumplings.  What's not to like about this unique place.

    There's lots of choice of it but I really liked the vegetarian dumplings.  Wonton, vegetables and beef noodles were all delicious.  

    Everything comes out quick and of course the price is more than right.  Service is awesome and because you can see everything that's going on in the kitchen, it migt possibly be the cleanest chinese restaurant I've ever been to.

    hand made noodles. fast. great service. open kitchen. Need i to say more?

    There was a line up when we got there, but it moves pretty fast (approximately 10 mins wait). As soon as the server sees you there waiting, he offers you a glass of water.

    Staff is extremely friendly and nice. Service is really fast. Even faster when you speak chinese to them.

    My boyfriend and I had ordered the soup dumplings, sweet and sour veggie pork noodle and a beef noodle. The soup dumplings were good, as they are made on the spot. The veggie pork handmade noodle was really good. The beef noodle, not so much.

    They are definitely known more for their handmade noodles.

    Will be returning the next time I'm in town to try the spicy noodle and shanghai noodle everyone is raving about!

    pretty good noodles, affordable cantonese family that i never had.

    family owned. mom works the register, runs food, and cooks. thinking of hollering at her daughter. you know, help out the fam.

    the son is actually the star of the restaurant, had a line of skinny boys out the door trying to get his number. i must admit, he's a hottie~~!

    Fresh noodles, dumplings and wontons= yummy lunch.  This place is the restaurant front of a real noodle factory so you know their noodles have to be good- and they are!  We ordered the shanghai noodles with chicken, along with a big bowl of spicy pork w/ noodles & slivers of cucumber.  We also got 2 different types of dumplings- peking ravioli lightly fried, steamed smaller dumplings w/ a peanut sauce, and 2 types of dim sum (har gao shrimp dumplings and pork shumai).  Great value- large portions for under $10 per dish, the dim sum was under $4 each. I was starving so I would have eaten anything, but the food here is great!  

    Very small- only about 6-8 tables with an open kitchen.  The location on the edge of Chinatown is convenient- near the Place de Armes metro stop.  This place is cash only so make sure you have some on hand to pay the bill!

    Great restaurant right outside the underground tunnels in Chinatown. We spied it on our first night in Montreal and it was the perfect place to go to in the middle of Hurricaine Irene because we barely had to go outside!  

    In any event, the food was great.  The beef Chow Foon was some of the best I've had and the prices were incredibly reasonable.

    Great place to eat!

    I can see why the owner was all smiles. This place is a money making machine! 15-20 minute wait for a table. Fresh noodles and dumplings. All very tasty! Open kitchen. Like my friend pointed out, this is no Top Chef but it definitely hits the spot when you're craving dumplings!

    Above average Asian noodles & food.  Noodles are a bit different from what I am used to.  The Spicy Pork with Noodles consists of thin noodles, a dark sauce made of minced pork and a handful of julienned cucumbers.  Looks can be deceiving as the cucumbers look fresh and cold and the dark sauce look very salty.  Surprise!!!  You mix it up and when you eat it, it tastes like the Chinese adaptation of a hardy American spaghetti with thick meat sauce.  The bowl serving is large and you get tons of food for your $$$.  Other items such as the dim sum and flat noodles are made fresh and decent tasting.  The owner was polite and the dining area clean.  3.5 stars.

    I was not impressed. Had much better chinese noodle soup. Maybe I ordered the wrong item, I may give it another chance. Friend had wonton on peanut sauce, that was pretty tasty. Overall cost performance was not bad, hence, 3 stars.
