Visited Montreal from Vancouver & was looking for Indian halal food. After searching we found Chez Devi. We ordered Tiki with Channa, Lasoni Tikka (bbq) & Tikka masala with plain naan. Food & service both were amazing. Highly recommended….
I ordered paneer for starters, lamb & naan for main course. It was mediocre at best. Paneer came with coleslaw & green chutney. The rating is for dessert & drinks, of which we had only two options. gulab jamun & brownie. Brownie was store bought with whipped cream on top. & cocktails tasted bad. Paid 80 CAD per person including tips. Ambience was just ok, not good.
Not worth the price. Just a hyped up mediocre Indian restaurant.
We were planning to go to another restaurant, but since they didn't allow kids after 9 pm, we decided to try this place instead - & we're so glad we did! We ordered the chicken biryani & butter chicken, & both were absolutely delicious. Honestly, this is the best Indian cuisine I've tried in Canada so far. Amazing flavors, great quality, & such a pleasant surprise. We'll definitely be back
This was my very first time trying Indian food in Montreal, & I was honestly blown away. The restaurant is halal, tucked upstairs, & has a cozy vibe with dim lighting, perfect for a date night or just hanging out with friends.
We ordered the jumbo mixed grill, which came with salmon tikka, tandoori shrimp, kebabs, lamb, & chicken. Everything was full of flavor, but the lamb was especially tender & just melted in my mouth.
The chicken tikka masala was the star of the night. The sauce was rich, creamy, & perfectly seasoned , dipping the garlic bread into it was pure heaven.
I'm surprised this place isn't talked about more because the food & atmosphere are both amazing. Definitely a halal gem in Montreal that deserves way more hype. Highly recommend checking it out!

Chez Devi offers a refined take on North Indian cuisine in the heart of downtown Montreal. This is not a buffet, but they do have an incredible all-you-can-eat weekday menu, which we had the chance to try. The experience is completely different from a traditional buffet-this is elevated dining, where each dish is freshly prepared & beautifully presented.
The butter chicken was rich & flavourful, with a depth of taste that truly stood out. The samosa was generously filled & perfectly crisp, while the masala had just the right amount of heat-spicy enough to add a kick but still approachable for all palates. The gulab jamun was a highlight, with the perfect balance of sweetness.
The ambiance is warm & elegant, making you feel transported to South Asia, & the service was exceptional. The staff frequently offered fresh bread & water, ensuring a top-tier dining experience. With its high-quality cuisine at an accessible price, Chez Devi is perfect for a business lunch, a night out with friends, or a romantic dinner. Definitely worth revisiting!
