This lovely Chinese restaurant is tucked into the heart of Old Montreal. It has a warm and inviting atmosphere, and the food is delicious. The menu offers the crowd pleasing favorites, but also lesser known Chinese cuisine menu items. I had the salmon teriyaki and it was cooked perfectly. I came here for dinner with a large group, and one thing I realized is, YES! Chinese is perfect for a large group — there is something for everyone no matter their diet (we had some picky GF/ Vegans / Paleo etc and it was hard to agree on one thing, but everyone can agree on Chinese!). Also note, if you are sensitive to spicy food like me, you'll be totally fine! This is not done too spicy, though some dishes do dial it up.

Looking for a reasonably priced, authentic szchuan cuisine along with personable service? We happened to stumble across this restaurant in an area known more for hype than the quality of the food. Since our group consisted of those who were vegetarians and carnivores this was a great compromise. We had an array of dishes from deep fried green beans,spicy fried rice to ma po tofu. All were very good and authentic, just ask for the original menu for Chinese customers you will find a more diverse array of house specialities. Highly recommend and will be going back.

My wife and I enjoyed dinner here last night. We tried three of their dishes and all were very good. The general Tao’s chicken is great but it does not have a sweet element to it like in most Chinese-influenced US restaurants. I thought their version was especially good as the chicken was very crisp. My wife had a special Szechuan beef dish that was incredible. The heat was perfect and it was probably the best rendition of this dish we have had anywhere. The staff were very attentive and the service was impeccable. I would highly recommend this restaurant.

We were very disappointed to learn that MR MA had closed down but delighted to find its reincarnation in old Montreal! Same wonderful food and exceptional service in a more intimate atmosphere. Highly recommended. Hope they will put their great chicken brochets back on the menu!

MR MA has been my wife and my favorite restaurant for many years. What a great surprise to rediscover it in the heart of old Montreal. The best szechuan food in town! The most welcoming atmosphere and staff and Mr. and Mrs. Ma are always warm, kind and calm. Sharing a meal with family, friends or associates here is an experience!!!
