Meilleurs plats en sauce & meilleure Naan depuis tres longtemps. Quel service hors pair!
PPP
The service is very good! It's overpriced for all the food portion. The slow cooked beef & BBQ chicken are very dry & hard to chew. The naan are the best!

Service was really good to begin with, but I was a little disappointed with the makhani daal - it was made with a mix of different lentils & kidney beans, which is quite unusual. The rest of the food was just okay. The naan were good, & the kebab masala was decent. The fish pakoras were tasty, but they would have been even better if served with mint chutney.

Excellente resto indien!!! Cuisine authentique ultra savoureuse! Nous avions un menu dégustation & tous les plats étaient exquis!!! Les plats sont riches sans être lourds, & les naans sont incroyables. Le cadre est élégant, contemporain, avec une belle ambiance sans être trop bruyant. Service attentif, professionnel & rapide. Mention spéciale à la propriétaire qui nous a accueilli avec chaleur & hospitalité. Une belle expérience du début à la fin!!!

Excellente adresse avec des naans à tomber parterre.
Ambiance & rapport qualité prix au top.

Ordered dinner to go in person. The location is easily accessible & tucked away from the high traffic areas. Their spicy sauce ambience is perfect for dinning with friends or family.
The staff were polite & very pleasant. They provided recommendations on what to order. I ordered rice, naan & gobi. The naan was delicious.
Marina
Absolutely exceptional Indian cuisine. The prices already include the tip which is a nice bonus (& kudos to the owners on that move). Not only is the food fantastic but the ambience of the place is both welcoming & higher end without feeling snobby. Just a fabulous experience all around.
We've ordered butter chicken, chicken tikka masala, naan bread, samosas, kanda baji, & a chickpea salad. Every dish was better than the last & we had enough leftovers to last another 2 meals.

Le poulet ou l'agneau Korma sont décadents, les naans au fromage exquis & le service impeccable. Je ne peux pas recommander plus un restaurant, à visiter!

Nous avons pris le lamb curry & le butter chicken avec 2 cheese naan. Les repas étaient bon, mais le cheese naan est fait avec un fromage caoutchouteux…
On avait soif & le service n'était pas très réactif pour nous remplir nos verres d'eau & nous n'avions pas de carafe d'eau à table.. donc pas génial. Compliqué de se garer dans la rue donc faut prévoir quelques rues avant

We showed up right at 5PM for their weekday happy hour deal: order any main & get 50% off appetizers & drinks. For real, that kind of deal in Montreal feels like a unicorn. Bonus? It's BYOB! Bring your favorite bottle or try their mocktails-surprisingly bold & worth it.
Mocktail highlights:
🍍 Ginger Pineapple Fusion - Bright, zesty, & just the right kick.
🥭 Mango Virgin Mojito - Sweet, tropical, & super refreshing. Perfect sidekick to all the spicy bites.
What we ate (& loved):
🥟 Chana Samosa - My MVP appetizer. Think crispy samosas loaded with spiced chickpeas, yogurt, & tangy chutneys. Like Indian nachos, but better.
🫓 Keema Naan - Fluffy naan stuffed with spiced ground meat. Tasty, but I'd ask if they could make it spicy next time!
🫓 Cheese Naan - Fluffy naan with cheese inside
🫓 Garlic Naan - Delicious with the butter chicken 🤤
🍗 Chicken Pakoras - Crispy, juicy, would love a little hot sauce with it.
🥗 Paneer, Tomato & Mango Salad - Gorgeous & fresh but a bit mild flavor wise. Wanted a bit of crunch or spice to round it out.
Main dishes = full flavor mode:
🍛 Butter Chicken - Creamy, rich, & total comfort food goals.
🍤 Shrimp Karahi - Light, flavorful, & packed with peppers & onions.
🍖 Lamb Biryani - Fragrant rice, tender lamb, & cozy spice. Everything you want in a biryani.
🔥 Mixed Grill Platter - All the tikka you could want-chicken, lamb, malai, & seekh kababs. Juicy & sizzling. Perfect for sharing (or not).
Sweet ending:
🍮 Cardamom Crème Brûlée - Dreamy custard with a toasty caramel top & that warm cardamom hug.
The vibe? Cozy, colorful, & full of personality. The staff handled our giant order & many questions with patience & smiles. This spot is perfect for date night, squad dinner, or spoiling yourself midweek.
💡 Foxy Tip: Bring a bottle, ask for extra spice if that's your vibe, & don't skip the chana samosa.

Visited as part of a social media collaboration. This review reflects my honest experience.

Belle présentation de ce restaurant ! Carte assez variée mais plat pas exceptionnel à mon gout juste passable. Déçu par le cheese naan que je n'ai pas mangé finalement.
Je n'ai pas été transportée dans l'univers de la cuisine indienne ou pakistanais.
Néanmoins service impeccable rien a dire 👌🏾
Restaurant difficile d'accès en voiture prévoir du temps pour trouver un stationnement.
Cl.
Nous nous attendions à plus en se fiant aux'reviews' & aux prix... très bof. Tout était tiède, le pain naan était dur, les plats goûtaient pas mal la même chose, fades, le service péniblement long (clairement un manque de staff).
Monique
Tout simplement délicieux, meilleur pain naan que j'ai mangé & Alo Gobi & poulet au beurre excellent

I recently visited Amber Restaurant & had an amazing experience. The chicken tikka masala was rich & flavorful, with just the right level of spice that didn't overpower the dish. The naan was soft & perfectly paired with the curry. The staff was attentive, & they made great recommendations when I wasn't sure what to order. The atmosphere was lively, with traditional Indian music setting a cozy vibe. I found the prices to be reasonable for the quality & portion sizes. I highly recommend this place to anyone who loves authentic Indian cuisine.

This BYOW spot is a real hidden gem. The prices are fair, the food is always great, & the service is super friendly. The lunch special is a must-try-an Indian naan sandwich with fries & a drink. It's filling, & even with tip included, it's still really cheap!

We're from Afghanistan,but today we decided to try an Indian restaurant, & we chose Amber for dinner. It was amazing! I tried the shrimp biryani, butter chicken, beef kebab masala, & garlic naan - everything was delicious. Wallah, it was fantastic! The owner, Hafsa, was so sweet & provided excellent service. Highly recommend

Food was great, although the butter chicken was only ok. Service was terrific. Unfortunately, there was a table of 8 people who had brought a lot of wine making an unbelievable racket, we had to eat quickly & leave because we literally weren't able to hear each other speak. Still giving a 4 for atmosphere because it would have been very nice without that table of selfish morons. The wait staff was professional & apologetic for the noise, & the beef curry, bhaji, & traditional naan were amazing. Recommended unless there's a loud group near you.

Found this cozy restaurant perfect, although from my location it is far but worht the drive. We tried an array of veg & non-veg entrees & main course & loved them all. the naan breads were hot & fresh & portions were very good.

This is the most white people Indian food I've ever had. I'm talking'Midwestern retired boomer with a house on Florida' white. Absolutely no flavour, no complexity, no spice. Hospital food. The presentation is good, but the pictures for the lunch menu lie to you as they show the main dish being the larger plate, while on delivery it's on the smaller side, way smaller than the rice. So, it's basically a side dish. I'm not complaining about the spiciness levels, I understand why it would be mid being in Canada, I prefer mid personally too. But, Indian food is not about the hotness, but the complex flavours, mixing & elevating each other in the curry. There was none of that. It was like a tomato soup but even that is acidic. I could not taste any of the spices, where was the cardamom, where was the turmeric? I tried two curries, couldn't tell them apart. No depth at all. I feel like getting a COVID test after eating there, just in case it's me. The vegetable side dishes were overall better than the main dish. The naan was fine, but a bit undercooked. Never coming back.
