Rutba offre une cuisine indienne authentique dans une ambiance chaleureuse et cosy, avec des portions généreuses et des plats riches en arômes allant des currys onctueux au naan fraîchement cuit et à des touches innovantes comme le burrata butter chicken. Le service est attentif et convivial, capable de s'adapter aux préférences d'épices et de rendre chaque visite adaptée aussi bien à une soirée entre amis qu'à un repas en famille, dans un cadre accueillant et verdoyant. La carte met en vedette des spécialités très appréciées telles que butter chicken, dal rutba, paneer lababdar, rogan josh, samosas et ras malai tiramisu, le tout à des prix raisonnables et parfois des concerts live ajoutent à l'expérience. L'ambiance est chaleureuse, le décor est soigné et le service est souvent décrit comme attentionné, faisant de cet endroit une adresse prisée pour les amateurs de cuisine indienne à Montréal.
Amazing food, but the service needs a personal touch.
The Good:
We visited Montreal for the first time & chose Rutba based on its excellent reputation. The food certainly lived up to the hype-everything was delicious & very reasonably priced. The atmosphere & seating were comfortable, & most of the staff were polite & professional.
The Critique:
Unfortunately, the experience was dampened by one individual (who appeared to be the owner or a senior server). We felt an air of superiority & a lack of warmth that made us feel unwelcome. In a city where everyone else was incredibly friendly & welcoming, this stood out in a negative way.
Verdict:
The flavors are 5-star, but the management could benefit from training their staff on how to engage neutrally & warmly with every customer. We loved the meal, but we hope the hospitality matches the quality of the kitchen next time.
We have visited Rutba today for our dinner . The ambiance was quite attractive to be honest. Food was ok & justifying the price. Only thing we don't like is we asked for one tea & they refused saying we cannot make tea for just one. Every single dollar counts right? No other restaurant i have visited before refused for one tea cup .
That shows the Im professionalism. We still head out giving tip because i know restaurant business can be exhausting but it doesn't justify neglecting customers demand .

Amazing food, great service, such kind & accomodating staff... our waitress, Sim, was too kind! even played a bday song for me... will definetly be back
Attentive & friendly service from Sim & others. Best Indian food we've had in Montreal in terms of flavor, creativity & presentation. The place was vibing with the cool decor, happy customers, sounds of drinks being mixed, & the guitar player! It was a Friday night.
I don't know how to fully express how good it was. The taste was perfect, exactly like the food from my hometown. The servers were incredibly kind & sweet, which made the experience even better. I absolutely loved the overall experience & would definitely recommend it as one of the best Indian restaurants in Canada. ( I ordered Chicken Gilafi Kebab 10/10, malai kofta curry 11/10 & Gulab jamun with icecream 9/10)
Excellent samousa servi avec une sauce très goûteuse; délicieux! Plats végétariens choisis (dal & veg kohlapuri) épicés & Sim nous a gentiment offert du yogourt & lassi pour atténuer la force des pinents. Service très aimable & joli cadre pour le souper. J'y retournerai sans hésiter!
Went here twice & three days. Great selection, not too expensive, & great vegetarian options. No wait for a table. Easy to make a reservation. Recommend the okra curry.

Definitely visiting again n again..
They know what are they doing.. & they love it as well..
Nous avons découvert ce resto indien de la « Main » par hasard, car c'était un des seuls ouverts après 22 h un dimanche soir. Tant mieux pour nous, car nous avons été ravis ! Nous avons pris du poulet au beurre, un biryani à l'agneau & des nans maison... tout était délicieux, frais & parfaitement préparé, comme si on était reçus par des amis. Mention spéciale également pour le service, assuré par Sim, charmante & souriante. Bref, une réussite sur toute la ligne, avec des prix très raisonnables compte tenu de la qualité de la nourriture & de l'accueil ! Chaudement recommandé par toute notre « gang » !
Our first visit to Rutba was such a delight - tasty food, cozy ambiance, & friendly service. We may have ordered a bit too much, but everything was so good it was hard not to.
The star for us was the Telangana chicken curry: bold flavors with curry leaves giving off a beautiful perfumed aroma. The lamb rogan josh was also a favorite.
We couldn't resist the Rasmalai Tres Leches dessert, which did not disappoint. The flavors of cardamom, rose, & pistachio in this tiramisu-style sweet were divine - a perfect way to end a wonderful meal.
The space is casual & comfortable, & the staff are attentive & kind.
We're already planning our return for the samosa chaat, one of their many butter chicken variations, & another round of that Rasmalai dessert.
Amazing food & service in a warm & welcoming atmosphere. Sim was our server & she's great, as have been the other servers on two other visits. It seems like a well-run business with owners & staff that really care.
