Best Paranthas I ever had in Canada. Completely homemade taste. We ordered Allo, Goobi & paneer parantha combo. Aunty at front was also amazing . Reminds me of my mother. Girl who served was also great. Will definitely visit again during my next trip to Montreal

We were craving authentic Pakistani food & this place fulfilled our cravings perfectly. It was all fresh & homemade, amazing attention to detail. I felt warm after leaving this place. Warm inside with the amazing food, out of this world paratha/puri & chai. Even the decoration inside was visually pleasing & all the small trinkets to the umbrellas in the ceiling show a lot of love was put into creating this place.

One of the best stuffed parathas I've eaten outside home, & easily the best in Montreal!! I had heard rave reviews about it from friends for about two years now & finally had the opportunity to visit.

Not only is the food is fresh & served piping hot, it's also well-priced. Service was wonderful as well. I ordered the aloo paratha combo -thinking I would eat one paratha & pack the second one so I can sip on my chai. I ended up eating both parathas & leaving with a full heart.

I'm hoping to go back soon with friends & family (multiple trips)!

We were about to leave Montreal after a weekend trip & were craving the soul after a lot of traveling. This place was such a gem & it ended up being my most memorable meal of the trip. The taste of the food & hospitality of the people working there & owners reminded me of my hometown & childhood.
