Many describe the experience as memorable and worth discovering, praising the variety, aroma and affordable pricing that make Buffet Maharani a standout choice for Indian cuisine and buffet lovers.
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 !
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.
Buffet Maharani is an amazing restaurant in Montreal that offers a wide variety of delicious Indian dishes. The food is flavorful, the service is top-notch, & the ambiance is inviting. I highly recommend trying their butter chicken, naan bread, & mango lassi. The staff is friendly & attentive, making sure you have a fantastic dining experience. Overall, Buffet Maharani deserves a glowing 5-star review for their exceptional food & service. Preet & Abd Al-Rahman were amazing. They welcomed us & treated us very well, Thank you ✨✨✨Enjoy your meal & happy reviewing! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Absolutely amazing & attentive service, best quality/price value. Some of the few Indian all-you-can-eat in town with lots of daily options. There is a rotating menu that changes daily with everyone's favourites that are offered daily. Portions are very generous. Everything is also fairly priced.
Order was messed up a lot for all you can eat. Things we didn’t order showed up & things we had ordered never arrived. The restaurant was very clean, but the food didn’t taste like Indian food.
The food flavours & quality were top notch - some of the best Indian food we have ever eaten. The service was attentive & fast. I highly recommend this restaurant & we will surely be back.
Beautiful restaurant foods was excellent,we tried so many different dishes with same price, service was great,we recommend to try this place, no other Indian Restaurant will give this much different kind of dishes only $17.95 great experience we will go back.

Amazing food great service. I had not had an authentic nan since I came here. Price is amazing. I have dined in many Indian restaurants & quality is much better than the costlier restaurants. I would love to go back & try the all you can eat buffet.
