Located in Montreal's Chinatown, Mon Nan Village a discrete restaurant that's easy to miss unless you know where to look. The restaurant offers some of the best pan-fried dumplings, Peking duck and General Tao chicken in town. The dumplings are just a small part of an extensive Dim Sum selection that can be ordered from the daytime menu. Mon-Nan's menu also includes a selection of seafood specials and interesting variations on soft-shell crab. Restaurant Mon Nan also serves Moo Shoo pork, Hot Pots and varied chicken dishes.
Reviews describe Mon Nan as a go to spot for hearty, traditional Chinese fare with large portions and generally friendly service. Dishes such as General Tao chicken, Shanghai noodles, salt and pepper shrimp, ginger lobster, and roasted duck are repeatedly praised for flavor and value, with many noting the option to share multiple dishes and take leftovers home. The atmosphere is often described as welcoming and lively, good for family meals and celebrations, and the menu is viewed as broad enough to satisfy varied tastes. A few visits mention inconsistent service, with moments that feel hurried or impersonal, and some concerns about price versus portion size or timing when dishes arrive at different times. There are occasional remarks about decor updates, cleanliness, and occasional service hiccups, though many reviews highlight friendly staff and quick service. Overall Mon Nan remains a beloved staple for classic Cantonese and Chinese comfort food in Chinatown, with strong favorites that keep regulars returning, while experiences can vary by visit.
Came here specifically for the Peking duck. Paid extra to have it with the fried noodles & it was worth it. We were a group of four women & one child - in addition to our three course peking, we also ordered fried lobster, water spinach greens & saltfish fried rice. We left no crumbs. Will come again next time I'm in town.
Mon Nan is hands down my favorite Chinese restaurant! The service is consistently amazing-staff are always friendly, attentive, & make you feel right at home. The food is simply outstanding, with each dish bursting with flavor & cooked to perfection. Whether you're craving classic favorites or something new, Mon Nan never disappoints. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a top-notch dining experience! Don't forget to try their salt & pepper shrimps 😊
Went here with my family for the first time last night & everyone loved it. Staff were super nice & the food was excellent. The orange chicken in particular was to die for. We will definitely be back!
The place was nice & lit up & the service was okay, but we came towards the time it was closing so the waiters were probably tired & ready to go home. The food was really good & we were very satisfied. Though one thing that was a bit off was that when I ordered the wonton soup, the soup was good but the wonton tasted like soggy dough, but I totally recommend the shrimp dumplings! Overall everything was excellent & I would 100% recommend the place! ^^
We stop by at Mon Nan & had a very quick supper. We ordered wonton soup, salt & pepper porkchops, friedrice & coke. I was so full as i ate more of the pork & the rice is heavy as it is too oily. It wasn't that good, but not bad either. Probably it also depends on the food that is being ordered. Anyways we took the leftover food & gave it away.
It's okay. It took 30 minutes for my main to arrive. Portions are huge. Plenty of protein & vegetables. The fries stiff noodles & sauce & shumai were tasty. The brisket was slightly funny tasting, & gave my jaws a workout. Toughest beef brisket I've ever eaten.
