The location is small but the food was amazing. I had the butter chicken, nihari, & the aloo paratha & I truly enjoyed everything. The parantha was not overly greasy or heavy. Definitely recommend checking it out.

On a Monday afternoon, the husband craved taste of home food, so off we went around a Montreal downtown to find what will satisfy him. Chai Paratha Montreal is a cozy & super cute restaurant but what really is the heart of it, is the food it serves. We ordered aloo paratha that arrived piping hot & flavors that will win anybody over. Chicken tikka roll came the same way - packed with flavors rolled into freshly made paratha. Finally, Chapli kebab, that was like explosion of best chicken flavors. As much as I am raving about the food, the service is just as great! If in Montreal & wondering where to get some authentic paratha & more, this is the place!

Sorry, I don't have a picture of my meal. I had Chicken Paratha combo that came with 2 chicken Paratha & a cup of chai I picked Masala chai. First of all, delicious Parathas highly recommend. When the food came out It was piping hot.& the chai OMG I need a bigger cup of that chai it was that good. If I'm in the area & not hungry, I would just walk in there for a cup of chai. I can't wait to go back & try their chicken Biryani & pretty much everything they have on their menu. I hope you keep it up with good service & delicious food out of that kitchen.

We got the samosa, roll, & chicken paratha. The samosa was a bit too oily, with a pronounced oil flavor coming from the shortbread crust.

The chicken sheekh kabob roll was very good with a healthy amount of sauce & filling.

Tried Chai Pratha during our trip to Montreal. We ordered aloo pratha & chicken pratha. The chicken pratha was okay, but we really loved the aloo pratha. The place is very small & packed. The lady at the front desk wasn't very welcoming, & the background music felt a bit weird. Overall, the food was good, but the staff experience could be better.
