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.
