Overall, diners describe Cuisine Arya as an authentic South Indian dining experience with flavorful, well presented dishes and generous portions. Dosas, idli, vada, sambar and chutney are highlighted for authenticity and balance, with many meals praised for fresh ingredients and bold spices. The menu ranges from classic dosas to thalis and curry dishes, including specialties like lamb or shrimp curries, and the results are consistently described as delicious and satisfying. Service is repeatedly noted as attentive, friendly, and accommodating, contributing to a welcoming, efficient atmosphere that pairs well with reasonable prices. While a few notes mention the dosa being slightly overcooked or a dish tasting a touch artificial, the overall consensus is that this spot offers high quality, authentic South Indian fare and good value, making it a standout option in Montreal's dining scene.
Had an amazing experience at Cuisine Arya (Authentic South Indian) in Montreal. The food was absolutely delicious & truly authentic South Indian-full of flavor & made just right. You can really tell the quality & care that goes into each dish. The owner was incredibly helpful, kind, & provided extraordinary service, which made the experience even more special. Overall, a great place for authentic South Indian food, & I'd highly recommend it.
Hidden gem between mcgill & peel metro.
The dosa & vada are delectable along with savory samabhar.
The service is professional, Laxmu & Yogeswari are polite & attentive.
The prices, ambiance & food resonate well with each other.
In a strip mall, on Boul Souvenir, Laval, QC is Cuisine Arya. What stands out at this restaurant is the word'Indienne Authentique.' Not overdone & pretentious but easily approachable Southern India food cooked as a mother in India would - carefully, favorably & with a dash of love. From the classics to over 50 different dosas, great food is delivered with equally matched service. Stop by, you won't be disappointed by the food or overwhelmed by the prices.
Very good restaurant for quick dine in & take away. We were on our way back from Quebec city to Toronto by VIA rail when we had to break in Montreal for 2 hrs when we wanted to taste south indian food. This place did not disappoint with their variety of dosas & parottas with curries. Quick & quality food. Parotta could have been little softer but nothing to complain.

One of the best options for Indian cuisine in Montreal! We're glad it worked out, & we highly recommend including this spot on your list when visiting the city.
You genuinely make good food it tastes great. But the sad part is, you add so much artificial color to everything, & for what? Has any customer ever said the look is more important than the taste?Please stop adding unnecessary color. Stay authentic the real flavor is already there, this is specifically South Indian food must not have color. We have the best tastiest food.
Authentic South Indian food in Montréal. One of the best Medu Vada & Sambar I have had so far in restaurants outside India. All the vegetarian dishes we ordered were yummy. A must try if you crave for South Indian food in Montréal.
