A tiny bit of Pakistan found in the heart of Montréal! The karak chai was an absolute winner! Closely followed by the rasmalai. Reminded me of home so far from home. Not to mention the absolutely lovely & kind owners. Would definitely visit again & will suggest it to friends as well.

Felt like right at home ❤️🇵🇰 The food is beyond amazing. My favourite was Chai & Chicken Chapli Kebab & Rasmalai. Well I guess everything was wonderful including the owners of the restaurant!

It is one of the best Desi (Pakistani) joints in Canada & the US as we were visiting from the US, & have been yearning for some good halal Desi food. To our surprise the food was extremely delicious & I don't just praise food unless it smell, looks & the taste of every bite is amazing. These are my recommendations: 1. Laccha pratha with Chicken Tikka was simply deleciouso! 2. Chicken Chapli kebab was different & had a hole in the middle but still delicious even without Paratha. 3. Aloo Paratha was the best & was rich with the spicy mix potatoes filling in the nicely done paratha. 4. Chicken Paratha wasn't too bad the yogurt raita went well with it but honestly the Imli chutney ( house blend ) was the bomb it really got my full 100 marks. The ambiense was created by our DJ Salman ( the host ) with the best of Pakistan's best music from Coke Studio & some contemporary Indian Punjabi Songs. The decor was pretty eye-catching & nicely laid out for you to have genuinely unique Pakistani experience. Well done Team " Chai Paratha"

Chai Parantha is the ultimate spot for a meal in Montreal, Quebec. The girl who took our order her name is Hazra , she was incredibly professional & provided outstanding customer service. We ordered 10 Aloo Paranthas & 5 teas, one samosa chaat & everything was absolutely perfect. The restaurant was impeccably clean, & we thoroughly enjoyed our time there. Their Kashmiri tea was exceptionally delicious. I will definitely be returning :)

The butter chicken at Chai Paratha is a flavor explosion! Tender chicken cooked in a rich, creamy sauce that's perfectly spiced. It's a comforting dish that keeps you coming back for more.
