Unlike any other Indian restaurant, Buffet Maharani offers a unique dining experience where you order your meals at your table and a qualified chef prepares your meals which are delivered fresh to your table by our friendly waiting staff. Over hours, we will spoil you for choice with our gourmet quality Indian meals using only the freshest and healthiest ingredients, now grand opening.
Buffet Maharani is widely regarded as a solid all you can eat option with flavorful dishes, generous portions and a warm welcoming vibe; guests regularly praise the vegan selections as delicious and satisfying and highlight staples like pakoras, naans, samosas, biryani and a range of vegetarian options, with spice levels adjustable to taste; the service is frequently described as friendly and attentive and the venue is noted for being clean and comfortable; some reviews mention that the in house buffet offers fewer choices than the online menu and that meat such as chicken may not always be fresh, as well as occasional gaps in variety; overall the experience is seen as good value for a budget friendly buffet format and many would return to try more dishes.
I love this restaurant, & their variety of food options is great. Easily the best buffet in the area, & I really enjoy having the option of an affordable table d'hôte.
Terrible buffet, didn't taste good at all. Not worth the price & the food items to choose from in buffet weren't good. I only tried the veg & non veg buffet. Not worth & not even tasty.
The girl at the counter was good & service was fast.
Don't really know about the alacarte. But not at all advisable for all you can eat or buffet.
I have been coming here for the past 3-4 year with my boyfriend! We always take the option all you can eat & we are never disappointed, the taste & the quality is always there & everything is so delicious. You have to try their pakoras & their naans!! I really recommend this place to everybody !! The server is also super nice & gentle
Excellent flavours & food portions, & very good sevice. Hiwevet the menu items are quite limited; the in-restaurant menu has significantly less items than the one advertised online (e.g. all the biryanis are missing).
I love this place so much!! Their vegan buffet is so delicious & satisfying. The service is always 100%, they are very kind & the atmosphere is warm.
I've been coming here for years & everyone I bring falls in love as well.
Definitely worth discovering!!

Genuinely the best Indian food I've had in Montreal, I strongly recommend to make the detour! The service was warm & efficient, the place is simple & very clean. Great is an understatement. The beers are a must for an exquisite pairing !
I find the food delicious, & so does my son. We usually come for the buffet. I like the fact that one can order the spiciness we like. The food is prepared freshly (even though it is a buffet) unlike when you walk by tables & get the food that might have been sitting there for a while. The service has always been good. We really like this place!.
Surely there are many Indian or pan-Asian restaurants to choose from; but the question is what really sets them apart?
From my experience it's a combination of various aspects including…
Owners that care & are involved in making their restaurant stand out, which typically translates into longevity & success.
Putting thought & effort into their menus, marketing & a fair pricing structure. Their signage & menus are very appealing to look at which is a bonus.
Using quality ingredients & having well trained kitchen staff led by an experienced (or even better very experienced) chef to prepare the dishes with attention to detail, plus exquisite presentations filled with colours & steaming with traditional aromas.
Maintaining high levels of the above with matching kind & respectful service on a day-to-day basis while making every customer feel like a VIP.
I felt all those things when I visited & had a very memorable meal. There are so many dishes to try - I will admit - I must make it a point to indulge in the many others.
Bravo on the great job you are doing running your restaurant during these unique economic times.
This place was amazing! We love Indian food but this establishment was entirely different experience. We ordered the mes buffet style to sample everything & we were not disappointed. Each dish was perfect temperature, texture & uniquely flavored. Such a vast variety of lamb, chicken & vegan dishes. The staff were very pleasant & fluent in English & French.
