J'adore ce petit restaurant!!! Les plats sont délicieux, la qualité-prix est excellent! Même si c'est un petit resto, on a pas mal de choix, & on peut toujours trouver quelque chose qui te plaît!!!! maintenant je le considère comme ma cantine :))) car je viens souvent avec mes amis ....
My experience at Maison Jofei was simply epic. From the moment I walked in, you can feel how much attention has been put into the décor. Everything is vintage well put together, & most importantly extremely clean (which is rare to find in Montreal!). The tables are spotless, not oily at all, & even the floors are sparkling. One detail that really stood out to me was the fresh flowers on each table.
As for the service: top-notch. I truly have nothing negative to say, everything was perfect.
For the food, first they offer a hot orange cinnamon tea as welcome drink. I started with a fig grilled cheese as an appetizer. It was delicious, with a great balance between the smoky cheese & the sweetness of the fig jam. I ordered the Nasi Lemak chicken as a main course & wow… such a rich combination of flavors, textures, & freshness all in one dish. The chicken crispy from the outside & super juicy from the inside, served with rice topped with coconut sauce, boiled egg, cucumber & anchovies.
For dessert, we had the black rice pudding with fresh mango, coconut milk, & lychee, & it was absolutely amazing.
This experience exceeded all my expectations, & I will definitely be coming back!
My third or forth visit, & this time we even brought along two families from Toronto to try it. They all said the standard is top-notch-very thoughtful & absolutely delicious.
On top of that, we got a rare surprise: a once-in-a-lifetime dessert… mango pomelo sago. The taste is even better than that of a famous dessert shop in Hong Kong…😊😊 It brings back the taste of home country. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Nous sommes allés directement commander à emporter au restaurant. Nous avons été accueillis avec le sourire avec une tasse de thé offert pour patienter. & que dire des plats un vrai délice, tout est goutu & délicieux. Les meilleurs wontons que j'ai mangé à Montréal..Vous nous avez fait voyager. Merci 🙂
Nous venions pour essayer, moi qui suis fan de cuisine asiatique (mes origines aussi!) & bien quel bonheur dans ce joli petit restaurant pas loin de chez nous! La cuisine est simple, mais délicieuse & savoureuse, des goûts qui nous ont fait voyager! Les pâtes de piment, servies à côté, m'ont rappelé ma maman 🥲🤤! Je conseille sans hésiter, surtout que la dame était adorable & serviable! J'y retourne très viiiiiiite!
Simply delicious! My second time at Maison Jofei, & just as good as the first. The lamb dish is rich & tasty. Warm, inviting atmosphere with plenty of plants & flowers. Very friendly staff, & quick service. Highly recommend!!
What a great find. The menu pulls dishes from different parts of Asia, & you can really taste the care that goes into each one. Everything is well seasoned & made with a lot of attention to detail.
Their chili oil is seriously one of the best I've had. Paired with their slightly sweet soy sauce over a bowl of rice, it's such a simple but amazing combination.
Pricing is fair & service is great.
If you're someone who really appreciates good food, this place is a true hidden gem. 🌶?
