Mon Nan

Mon Nan, a staple of Montreal’s Chinatown since 1982, offers an authentic Cantonese dining experience that draws both late-night revelers and daytime enthusiasts. Situated by the east gate of Chinatown, this restaurant’s purple neon lights set the tone for an on-point atmosphere. Owned by the Lee family, Mon Nan has remained true to its roots while evolving under the guidance of current owner Joe Lee. The menu, filled with family recipes, features standout dishes like salt and pepper shrimp, Peking duck with homemade pancakes, and perfectly steamed Dungeness crab. It’s a must-visit for both Cantonese classics and a lively dining experience.
