We asked a local woman for a recommendation & she told us about Mon Nan! We ordered the spicy honey beef, egg rolls, & vegetable fried rice & they were all excellent. We are so grateful for her help finding this restaurant. You should try Mon Nan, too! I took the photo after we started eating, so the presentation is not as pretty as when they brought it to the table.

Disappointed- this place was recommended by a staff member at our hotel. The Tao Chicken was so good 10/10, the chicken fried rice 9/10, the dumplings 5/10, beef broccoli 4/10. Now the service is what killed it for us. Everything was ok in the beginning, there were plenty of seats & the food came out quickly, but this is where it started going down hill. Seems they were giving us food from a different table. We kept the fried rice but in place canceled the chicken in bean sauce. Then we waited & had to request another soda like 5 times. Then when the bill came the lady automatically added the tip on the credit card reader (make sure to compare the price on the paper ticket with what's on the reader). Anyway, we were actually going to pay cash. Total was $115 after taxes & my husband gave $140 to get change back to tip & they never brought change. He had to go ask for the change. Seemed deceiving & our desire to go back- it's gone. We won't be back.

Honestly they're so many things to say, I saw the reviews thinking it would be amazing since we were visiting & wanted something good. Unfortunately, it was completely something else…..

Spent 120$ & still have regrets. It felt like they just wanted to give something so it's complete. The meat was duck & chicken cold - the beef general tao was worse, it didn't have any beef & you could feel it while eating it- the fried rice & dumpling were bland. Honestly, you better go to a buffet for better food.

I had to wait for them to service me because they taught I was'the uber eats guy'. & they don't care about you nor treat you well- you're just another sale. Don't let the images fool you.

Love this place. Been here twice ..first time got the sesame beef with chicken fried rice; delicious. Second time went with my bf & we had peanut butter pork dumplings & the spicy honey beef which were good, & we got the short beef ribs which we didn't like bc of the lack of meat it had too much fat.

Great chinese restaurant in the heart of Montreal's chinatown. There are lots of tables & it's air conditioned. We had crispy beef, eggplant & a fried rice. They were all delicious but also very oily!

By far the best Chinese restaurant of Montreal! The food is tasty & well proportioned. The chow mein is heaven as well as the fried salt & pepper shrimp. The general Tao is sweet but not very crunchy. This time we ordered but from recent past experiences the place is clean & the staff is efficient & quick to serve your meal. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a good spot for Chinese cuisine.

Honestly it's my favorite Chinese resto in Montreal. Haven't had a bad dish. Particular favorites are the scallop fried rice, salt & pepper pork chops, Cantonese chow mein, & the razor clams when in season
