Beijing Restaurant

Went recently for a late-night meal and had some of the best Chinese food I’ve had in a long time. The staff were very attentive to my party’s shellfish allergy, which we really appreciated. They also had a great selection of vegetarian dishes—the General Tso tofu was absolutely incredible! I’ll definitely be back.

this cantonese style chinese food hit the spot! the peeking duck skin was crispy and the meat was juicy. there was good wok hei on the beef chow ho and the peking duck stirfry vegetables. the eggplant, pork, and tofu was perfectly seasoned and cooked. the salt and pepper calamari could when used more salt and pepper but overall every crispy. good place and the server was very funny

We used to live in Montreal and had not been to the Beijing Restaurant in over 10 years! We would usually come with a large group including my wife's 90-year-old grandmother. It was her favorite restaurant for going out to dinner. We have had many delicious dim sum and entrees over the years, and the food this night was just as good as we remembered it!!

Exactly what we wanted during our layover in Montreal. The food was delicious and full of flavors. And came out so quick! Would recommend to anyone craving some good quality Chinese food and short on time!

Dishes were not authentic and not fresh- the stir fried mushrooms had some weird sourness that was not from cooking sauces. However, staff is friendly and place is clean

Don’t let the 4 stars fool you, this place deserves 5 stars. Truly so authentic, one of the best comfort Chinese food places in Montreal. The cooks in the back have been perfecting the food for decades, the service is warm and super quick, and the huge menu variety doesn’t deplete the high quality of every dish. Excellent food, paired with truly exceptional service.

Nostalgic dining at its finest. The ambiance, menu, and flavors bring me right back to Chinese restaurants in North America in the mid-80s. This is not fine dining but rather comfort food done right. Tasty, reasonably priced, and generously portioned, it captures the classic Chinese restaurant experience I remember so fondly from childhood, and I get to relive it here.

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.

five reasons why for five stars - incredible tasting food - double portions if you visit multiple times - juicy and delicous and fresh - exceptionally quick food - great tea - fabulous prices and host especially kind and generous and compassionate and considerate - good accessible location especially if you don't want to wander at night. very central.

The food was awful. We were in Chinatown looking for a bite around 10:30 pm, and unfortunately for us, this was the only spot open. It was pretty packed, so we assumed the food would be good. It wasn't. Most of the food we tried made me question whether the food was safe to eat. There was a common theme: the food tasted stale and old, and everything we ordered came out in record time, which meant nothing was fresh. It gave us no time to enjoy our food -- McDonald's takes more time to prepare a meal. We ordered the pork, wontons, dumplings in peanut sauce, and duck. The duck was the biggest disappointment, both in terms of taste and cost-to-portion ratio. It was literally four small pieces of old, chewy duck that instantly put my stomach in shambles, and we paid over $20 CAD. All in all, our meal was $65 CAD, and we left so unhappy and feeling gross about what we had. We love Chinese food in hole-in-the-wall eateries and eat pretty much everything, but this restaurant just missed the mark.

Food is Great!, Service is Excellent! Ambience Very good too! Came thinking I was just gonna be fine with the food and instead I was surprised with the service and ambience as well! I really recommend this place here in Montreal Canada if you ever visit

Very centrally located Chinese restaurant with friendly service. Went for the large oysters and they were ok and a bit overcooked for my tasting. Went there early evening (empty place) and service still took a bit of time. Decided for take out at the end. Their menu is extensive with many options and they stay open late. Will try other stuff next time.

Great, fast paced restaurant in Montreal's chinatown. It was busy, but we were seated immediately. Ordered Crispy Peking Duck with pancakes- it was perfectly cooked and tasted wonderful. After it was brought to the table , it was returned to the kitchen for the breasts and thighs to be cut up and the remaining duck to be used in a vegetable dish. The price was right and the servers were bustling. Loved it!

The food/taste is relatively the same as before the pandemic, however, the portion sizes have been significantly reduced. The service was standard, maybe a tad over the top as they kept coming to check up on us a bit too often. Overall, it's still the same cozy and comfortable feel you will get from a Chinese restaurant, I just wish that it will go back to not skimping over the proteins and making the portions a bit more balanced

Need a quick bite after hours or after night clubbing? What else can you ask for? This Chinese restaurant has been a local staple for many years. Found in the main alley way at the heart of Montreal 's Chinatown, this place is often packed where waiting times are short. We ordered the savory Shanghai's sizzling beef on a hot plate and the "Ying and "Yang" combo of steam rice with chicken and shrimp. (Unfortunately, I forgot what the sauces were). Not bad...and affordable! Parking on the street or public parking $-$$$

Went here while traveling in Montreal, it's a solid place to get some Chinese food. Not the greatest, but definitely solid. I found some of the dishes had different ingredients than what I am typically used to in this type of food. For example, the choice of veggies in the Kung Pao chicken is a little different. Not a problem, just interesting. Service was solid as well. I recommend this place if you're out at night and craving some Chinese food, but I wouldn't go out of my way to come here.

Love this place! Been coming here since the early 90's with my family, this location and Mais last location. Was so happy to take my husband here. Best Chinese food ever!! Now that I visited Montreal and ate at her restaurant, I will not be able to have Chinese food until I come back to Montreal lol The Chinese food in Florida is just not the same. I have not been able to find a place better than this.

We stumbled upon this restaurant. We were seated. Waiters were talking with each other which would be normal but they talked for a while. It took a while to get a server. We got our appetizers. It was very chewy. The temperature was way too hot. I got a plate that had hair. My spoon had schmuck on it. I got fried rice. The fried rice was the best part of the meal. It was not great tho. The beef was very small. The rice had no flavor. I got for a side with my dinner a beef and broccoli. The beef was like cheap microwaveable beef. No season and the bottom of the dish was very wet. Broccoli was very rough and chewy. The walls of the restaurant had plastic pictures of the dishes you could get. The tables and the space you have when seating were cramped. Overall I would not recommend to go here. 1/5 stars.

Friendly place with attentive staff. Our server was able to accommodate our need for gluten free by making a custom rice noodle and chicken dish for us. The serving sizes are large and perfect for sharing.

Service: 5* Taste: 5* Price: 4* Location: 4* Ambience: 3* Had an early dinner after wandering Montreal. We had hot and sour soup, Imperial Shrimp, Kung Pao chicken, and Thai crispy noodles with seafood. The shrimp dish had ample shrimp, but was bland. Once we added some soy sauce and chili oil, it was good. Kung Pao was okay, again under-flavored. The crispy noodle dish was a star, good flavor and great texture contrasts between the juicy seafood and crispy noodles. The hot and sour soup was the bomb. Well seasoned, well flavored, and just the right amount of spice. We ordered the house red (picture attached), it was good and tasty. We would return when in the area again.

Excellent food choices, they will even modify the order to suit your palette (no pork, no salt, etc) Service very friendly and efficient, they will bend over backwards to fulfill your order. The ambiance is homey and very busy. Lots of load talking and movement. I advise that you make a reservation and be 10 min early.

It's a great place to eat Chinese food with friends! There's a turning table in the middle of each table, so that you can pass around the food easily! Food tastes great, definitely a gem of the Quartier Chinois

We ordered the corn chicken soup and the shrimp in XO sauce. The soup was sweet and delicious and tasted very authentic - we really felt it was warm and comforting. The shrimp in XO sauce was decent with a little kick but nothing to write home about. Our meal came with tea, which we really enjoyed as well. The interior is older but feels like a hole in the wall, which I appreciate. The service is pretty typical for an authentic Chinese restaurant and ordering is done by writing down your items on a order slip after you sit down.

Food was really good. The chicken fried rice was flavor filled. Enjoyed my dinner. If you are in Montreal you should try them and the hop on hop off guide also suggested to go to this restaurant.

Our local friends recommended this restaurant near our hotel for dinner on a weekend. There was a twenty-minute wait. The extensive menu featured standard Cantonese fares along with modified classic Sichuan dishes like kung bao chicken. In the mood for noodles we ordered beef chow ho in black bean sauce and chicken chow mein. A bit different in taste from what we're used to in California but authentic and tasty enough. The Yu Hsiang aubergine was a surprise. Battered, deep-fried and brown with barely a hint of purple, it was not the typical braised eggplant with garlic sauce (Yu Xiang Qie Zi ) we had expected: more like a General Tso treatment. Perhaps nuanced French/regional influences and preferences played a part. Portion sizes were generous and service was responsive.

Was visiting the area and wanted some chinese food and we thought this would be okay. It wasn't that great. The restaurant was mostly empty and food seemed really greasy. But we were tourists and pretty hungry after a lot of walking around the city and exploring so we did eat it. The vegetables were not washed properly. There was sand settlement at the bottom of the plate when the vegetables were moved around. We had to rinse some florets in a bowl of water to make sure we weren't seeing things. We complained to the server who didn't seem to acknowledge that at first, and then finally gave us a new plate of other vegetables but with a side of attitude. Wouldnt recommend for tourists. They were happily having a conversation with a large table next to us (which I assumed were regulars there).

Food, service, and ambiance (in my opinion) are excellent. It's not a fancy looking restaurant but it's a place you can dine in with family. Our food came out quick and is very tasty. We had our usual barbecue pork and fried rice (yang chow) to gauge if the food is good. We also had fried calamari and fried wonton filled with pork and shrimp. We also ordered the beef noodle soup, which would probably be great if paired with steam bun with meat filling (siopao or bao) but we didn't order buns because we had a lot food already. All in all I would rate five stars

We were craving some late night eats after a night out at Beer Festival. Perfect how Chinatown is just around the corner. There were three restaurant still open on a late Thursday evening but we settled on Beijing. I've been here at least once or twice back in the day. Menu is typical Chinese style with 225 options. There's also some specials plastered along the walls in English, French and Chinese characters. Service is fast and our food followed quickly. - Beef chow ho (#196) ($10.95) - a staple but you can never go wrong ordering it. Satisfying. - Sweet & sour chicken with ginger ($13.95) - more sweet than sour, this is pretty much Chinese Canadian style. Average. - Young chow fried rice (#169) ($9.95) - good wok hay. Don't expect anything special but it's perfect for late night eats. Open till 3:00am!

Authentic food but not happy with cleanliness. Would have gone to better restaurant in Chinatown

My dining experience abstract keywords: takeout Chinese. I was told that Beijing is one of the older Chinese restaurants known for its late night post clubbing pit stop food. There were a lot of people dining, as two people we were directed to sit right in front of the kitchen doors in the back. We asked to move up front- my friend was able to grab a server's attention with great difficulty but we made it! Considering the large selection of items - we opted for a dinner for 2 option on the menu that was roughly 40$. This option included wonton soup (3/5), egg rolls (1/5), pineapple chicken (2/5), chicken fried rice (3/5), honey garlic spareribs (1/5), Cantonese chow mein (3/5). My deal: everything was served cold and stale with the exception of the soup. Usually I take home leftovers but the leftovers this time went straight to the bin! Am I going to be picky about this place ? No, because you pay for the takeout Chinese experience, but there is definitively better options for Chinese takeout if you really want to honour your cravings!

We ordered 3 things, wonton soup, General Tao chicken and orange beef. What we got was, dough in liquid, chicken skin/fat in fried dough, and more skin/fat in dough. The wonton was literally rolled dough with barely any meat if any inside. I took a bite and you can see the dough rolled. From my experience wonton is supposed to be dough surrounding a piece of meat. The general Tao was pieces of chicken fat or chicken skin or just plain fried dough. Same thing with the orange beef. I just paid 45$ for fried dough, chicken skin/fat, & beef fat, don't think there was any meat in my order. I'm never going to step foot in that restaurant!

Supper at Restaurant Beijing was the first time in a Montreal Chinatown place in a long while. Service was very good. The Beijing rice was very yummy. The meat in the beef with XO sauce dish required a LOT of chewing. The veggies in the fish fillet with vegetables dish also required substantial chewing. If my jaws did not have to work so hard, I might have given this place 4 instead of 3 stars!

My husband and i go there almost every friday ,there food is fantastic we have tried alot of diffrent things on the menu and so far every thing we have tried is delicious, great service , there very friendly its our favourite resturant .I would definitely recommend it to every one we know .

Everything's amazing!!! You can't go wrong, anything you order will be delicious. The sesame chicken, the spring rolls, the steamed rice 10/10! I absolutely loved their food (and they're affordable too).

After trying the disappointing food at mon shing, I was still hungry and decided to give restaurant Beijing a shot. The restaurant is vast and the host is friendly. However it takes so long for the food to arrive, I also noticed that some people were not pleased due to parking spots and the food wasn't ready by a certain time! Quite frustrating. In addition, after 15-20 minutes, the food arrived and it was cold and not good! I ordered chicken fried rice and Chinese brocoli. I didn't like it at all. Spent $25 for nothing. Not worth it :/ and I'd never return, the service is so slow and the food was such a disappointment.

WARNING BE WARE We came in for a late night dinner only to find ourselves disappointed in every way possible. We were surprised when the good came out 2 minutes after us ordering. Our chicken smelled like "dirty socks" and was cold. I would bet my life the food was prepared a week earlier. Our tea cups were stained with food residue. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE they should be shut down

Always fresh, what I love here besides the friendly service is that they start cooking your order when ordered it, they do not have pre-prepared stuff in advance. Great for take out also, I love to order few places for home to make portions for my whole week :-) I found a nice way to have delicious veggies in all my meals

Wouldn't dream of not stopping here as they have one of the best Hot and Sour soups on the planet, consistently good from visit to visit, year after year. This time I went with the General Tso's Chicken, egg roll and white rice which is distinctly different from the States, not cloying sweet and gooped up as you might be use to in our own Chinese American restaurants. Even the egg roll is different in texture and taste all in a very good way. The show stopper was the Dou Miao, stir fried pea shoots in a very light garlic sauce, oh my goodness such a delicate flavor and taste. Restaurant Beijing does many other authentic Chinese dishes and I have always been more than pleased when stopping by for either lunch or dinner.

We will not go to this restaurant again because the quality of the foods they provide are bad and their service is even worse. They rushed to bring in foods to our table which we did not order. In final payment, they also charged us a much more expensive item that we did not order and we did not eat. This place does not deserve even one star!

This is an authentic Chinese restaurant. I have not tried the duck here as recommended but I can vouch for the deep fried calamari and the prawns. VERY delicious.... I would definitely come back, as it is reasonably priced.

What a find! I loved the family-style aspect of Beijing. We ordered way too much, but are luckily heading back home tomorrow to Vermont so can bring our leftovers back. The sesame chicken was especially delicious and was crispy and perfect! The tea was a nice touch, and everything we had satisfied us -- including two picky kids!

There is a waiting list during the weekend but the food is totally worth it. I ordered sesame beef and it was crunchy and yummy. Too sweet towards the end as I ate the whole dish by myself. The price is okay - not on the cheap side of the spectrum.

Beijing is a godsend! We were so lucky to stumble onto this place while visiting Montreal and staying at the Intercontinental. Beijing is walking distance in the heart of Chinatown (right at the corner of the Chinois alley). Make the walk! Everything they make is precision. The egg rolls and spring rolls were irresistible. The cashew chicken was yummy. Best of all, I loved their fried rice entrees. Every night, we tried a different plate - both the beef fried rice and the seafood pork plate tasted smoky, savory and outstanding. Open till 3 AM and filled with Asian customers, this is the real deal!

Looking for some late night food that was open. Came across this from yelp and I must say it was delicious..portions were generous

Went tonight , food was delicious! And best won ton broth ive ever had. The service great!

Went here at around 10pm after some friends arrived into Montreal. We were craving some Chinese food and stumbled upon this place from Yelp. Upon entering we were greeted and seated almost immediately. We order approximately 5-6 dishes including mapo tofu, deep fried calamari, chow mein, sizzling beef, and hot and sour soup. The hot and sour soup was bland and lacked depth. The deep fried calamari did not taste good; it had the taste of freezer burn and we are unsure of what piece of the calamari we were given since were were over fried. The rest of the dishes were ok and tasted fine. I would recommend this place if you were looking for a late night eat; however, this would not be a go to place for me.

This is not a fancy upscale restaurant focused on service or presentation, just what we were looking for! Good grub, and fast quick service. The waiter sized me up and suggested a beef noodles with black bean dish so I obliged. We ordered the lobster with ginger and scallions, it was great and only about $20. We also ordered seafood fried rice. Big portions, opens late and everything looked good coming out of the kitchen

If I could give this 0 stars, I would. Vegetarian egg roll was soaked in oil and tasteless. The wonton soup was watery and similarly tasteless. They brought out duck sauce which was ALSO watered down and tasteless. Why didn't I leave? I keep asking myself that... maybe I was overly optimistic. Maybe I was lazy and did not want to get up. I ate a few of the Szechuan shrimp I got and now have a HORRIBLE stomach ache. My husband got a half of a BBQ duck which was burnt to a crisp. The manager then claimed that this is how fried duck tastes. Yes, you read correctly. He said it was fried when the menu said BBQ. Go up the block. There are better restaurants with better service.

Unfortunately, my experience at the restaurant was unpleasant to say the least. When we ordering, the server must not have heard us adjust our order and ended up bringing us a dish we no longer wanted. Evidently, their problem solving skills amounted to shoving it on the table without any apology and just insisting that we take it. And throughout the course of our supper, not once did anyone offer to come by and change our plates, in spite of the fact that by the end of our meal, all of the many bland tastes had unfortunately blended together into one gigantically bland soupy mess. Needless to say, we were glad to reinforce that gratuities are not mandatory for clearly subpar service.

Never again. One tell tale sign of a very bad Chinese restaurant is the number of non-Asians in the dining room. Do not bother walking in here because every aspect of the restaurant is subpar. Service - fail. Appearance - fail Food - fail (tasteless, not according to standard recipes) Wine - fail (Don't even know why we bothered) Save yourself the trouble and go somewhere else...anywhere else.

As far as authentic Chinese restaurants go, this one is a 5 star in the category. My husband had the most delicious Hot & Sour Soup. We wanted to take some home to our local takeout joint and say....Make this! Mushrooms and tofu and real pork and shrimp (gasp!) I don't even like Hot & Sour Soup and I was stealing bites. I had an eggroll. You could tell it was handmade and handrolled. It was crispy and wonderful. I had General Tso's Chicken since that is my Chinese jam. It was great. Not the sickening sweet stuff of home. Just good crispy and slight spicy and sweet. The house fried rice was the average dish of the night. A great place in Chinatown!

I ordered the chicken chow mein to go...and boy do I wish I has checked the container before leaving. I am not sure who was working the stove yesterday but they definitely didn't take any care in making my noodles as 3/4 were either overcooked or burnt. Who would is serve black, dry noodles to a customer for $10.95. Thank goodness my sister's meal was decent, so I didn't starve. Not the worst chinese food ever because I didn't throw it up, but disappointing beyond belief.

Working late? Hungry after a 12hour shift? How about that Chinese crave you've been hiding for a week now?. I was happy to see this restaurant open late and glad that they had what I was looking for. I ordered the bbq pork appetizer with the shrimp and corn soup. What is the definition of full? That soup. I was handed a bowl 2 times the size of my head with a lot of broth. I was a little disappointed with the noodles because they were thinner then I expected. Also the pork was a little dry but it's based with a sauce which you can put on to help. Overall this seems like a good place to get that crave. I hope when it's busy the food is a bit better but I was still happy when I left. Enjoy!

This place is okay. If you're craving the standard fare, North Americanized version of Chinese food, this is your spot. The hot and sour soup was great. Small size is a large bowl which is nice. Tofu was okay. You can ask for chili oil which makes everything nice. Service is okay, food is okay, prices are okay. Nothing to chirp home about.

Excellent food, price and service. Try taking several dishes and share with everyone at your table! You won't regret it.

Montreal, Canada ... Always amazing. I've been here wayyyyy over 30 times as I live (pt) lived (complicated ) in Montreal all my life. Found this place a few years ago. I asked a cop in Chinatown where is the best Chinese food- he strongly recommended Bejing - he was right, it's the best place I have ever eaten Chinese food!! When I'm in Montreal, or- when I get back, Bejing is in my top 10 most missed restaurants in Montreal! Sadly I have not yet found anything comparable in Calgary...Ask for King George to (serve) help you- he's my ultimate favorite server! I don't even have to order anymore he just knows exactly what I want!! Enjoy everyone!!!

So it all started at the University of Montreal.. Babu pissed me off and I decided to ignore him.. Safat tried to make me feel better so we came to a Chinese spot to eat at China Town.. as we read the annoying menu .. Taimoor and Farhan walked out and that resulted me getting extra annoyed because I was too lazy to walk out and now I had to sit next to this annoying Ass*.. I wanted to walk out twice after but safat stopped me as the server wasn't polite at all .. Obviously the food I got was crap .. they gave me lo Mein even though I wanted a cho Mein .. Never coming back !!!

Flying in late and looking to grab some food I headed down to restaurant Beijing thanks to reviews from fellow Yelpers. I wasn't disappointed and not just because I hadn't eaten all day. A pleasant surprise to grab dinner at 1am and find it fresh and very tasty. I ordered Kung Pao chicken xtra spicy and the only let down was lack of spice. I have to say that the flavor was very good and tasted fresher than some restaurants during prime time. I also really appreciated all the veggies in the dish too. Baby corn, peas, celery, mushrooms and much more!
