Chai Paratha is viewed as a warm, small eatery that serves authentic Pakistani and Lahori style parathas, chai, and breakfast favorites. Reviewers praise flaky parathas such as aloo paratha, chicken paratha, and lacha paratha, the halwa puri combo, and the kadak or karak chai that tastes homemade. The atmosphere and service are repeatedly described as friendly and homely, with many noting a welcoming, family run vibe. A few criticisms touch on price for portions, occasional oiliness in items like samosas, limited seating, and some inconsistent service experiences. Overall the consensus is that Chai Paratha delivers authentic flavors, fresh ingredients, and a comforting brunch or breakfast that makes customers want to return.
Food was decent. I had high expectations for the simple food to be made perfectly but it was mediocre. Service was ok.
Saag could have used more salt & less oil.
Gobhi paratha was good.
Ginger tea was fine. Nothing exceptional.
As someone from Pakistan, it's always a challenge to find food that truly reminds me of the authentic tastes of home, but this restaurant did just that! The flavors were spot on, & the quality of the food was amazing. My associates & I couldn't stop ordering more - every dish was delicious & full of that rich, traditional flavor you can only find in true Pakistani cuisine. If you're craving a taste of home or want to experience the real deal, this place is a must-try. Highly recommended!
The quality & taste of their food is amazing. Feels very homemade & fresh. Biryani 8/10; Paratha 10/10; Chapli Kebab 10/10. Nice ambience with coke studio playing in the background. Location is also good with street views.
The Chicken Tikka Paratha Roll is absolutely amazing-juicy, flavorful chicken wrapped in a soft, perfectly grilled paratha. Every bite was packed with authentic desi taste. Great portion size & perfect with a cup of chai. Can't wait to try more from their menu!

We had the saag, chicken paratha, aloo paratha, chola batoora, everything was delicious especially the saag. The restaurant has a very welcoming & home like atmosphere. ❤?❤?
Chai Parantha is a fantastic spot for Pakistani-style parathas - a must-visit in Montreal if you're a fan of this comfort food.
Their two-paratha special, especially the Aloo Paratha & Chicken Paratha, is absolutely mouthwatering - authentic, flavorful, & clearly made with care.
The ambiance is warm & inviting. The restaurant may be small, but it's impeccably clean, & the service is impressively quick.
It's family-owned, & the owner is genuinely welcoming, adding to the overall charm of the experience.
We tried 1 allo paratha, 1 chicken paratha, lacha paratha, chai & anda pyaz & paid over 40$ which is too much. No doubt it was quite good but overpriced for just 3 parathas, one anda & a chai.
We went as a huge group of 15 people & the staff was very accommodative. They made some customers move to accomodate us. Food was exellent & well cooked. Portions size is good & pricing is appropriate. Chai (tea) is served in unique earthen pots called (kullad). Will be going there soon enough for another round of Halva Paratha & Chole deal.
