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.

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.

Mon Nan est un excellent restaurant chinois authentique. Les fruits de mer frits sont de loin les meilleurs que j'ai mangé dans ma vie. Meilleur resto chinois que j'ai mangé dans ma vie! 😀
Un restaurant chinois proposant des plats succulents, diversifiés & copieux. Le service est impeccable & on parle en français ! Félicitations pour vos efforts ! Cela diverge de la plupart des restaurants chinois des alentours où le français est absent.

It was extremely loud! I could barely hear the person next to me. My throat was sore from having to shout. Love the food though! Service was a little slow, but wasn't bad considering how busy it was. I have been here several times when not so busy, & the atmosphere was much better. They really should put some sound mitigation measures in place.
Depuis plus de 15 ans que nous fréquentions ce resto. Quelle déception lors de notre visite vendredi passé. Nous avons choisi une entrée de dumping au porc sauce arachides (dégeux), le chow mein aux fruits de mer (médiocre par rapport à la qualité de ce qui était servi avant) & une poulet général tao (très peu de poulet sec sous trop de friture & sauce sans saveur). C'est regrettable, nous ne reviendrons plus.

Super resto caché à montréal pour ceux qui aime le chinois beaucoup bonne place pour une 1ère rencontre. Avec la famille il y a des grandes table pour partager les plats.. très généreux grosse portion pour chaque possibilité de doogie bag pour finir à la maison bravo miam!!!!
What can I say, a lot of people came here to have dinner, it is clear that the restaurant is popular, because as I understand it, it is very old, but the cuisine is very, very standard, like in all Chinese restaurants. Nothing special The only thing I liked was shrimp in salt & pepper, unfortunately. service: when we finished eating we were repeatedly made to understand that it was time for us to leave so that we could make room, naturally, I felt uncomfortable, I give three stars & I'm unlikely to come again🤷🏻♂️
