I am from Toronto & visiting Montreal over the weekend. The trip was amazing until I decided to eat Halwa Puri at Chai Paratha as it was eventually the closest from where I was living. I placed order over the phone & they said it will take 15 mints. I came after 15 mints the order was not ready. I had to wait 30 more minutes & when I said in Urdu
* I have placed order for halwa puri not Payay.. that you are taking so long*
The woman on counter was extremely rude & said this is restaurant not your home*

I was literally pissed off & she wouldn't say sorry.
When I said I am not gonna eat & I am leaving then just to save her order she apologized.

Prices seemed high for what you actually get.
Portion sizes didn't justify the cost.
Staff seemed inattentive & distracted.
We had to ask multiple times for basic things.
Not worth the money in my opinion.

The food quality didn't match the price at all.
My order took far too long to arrive.
When it came, it was already getting cold.
Staff didn't seem concerned when I mentioned it.
Not planning to return anytime soon.

Service felt rushed & not very welcoming.
The chai was lukewarm when served.
Definitely not what I expected based on the hype.
