Cuisine Arya in Montreal receives praise for authentic South Indian cooking, with a wide range of dosas, fluffy idli, and savory vada accompanied by flavorful chutneys and sambar, while portions are noted as generous and prices affordable. Service is repeatedly highlighted as fast and attentive, with the staff and owner described as friendly and accommodating. The menu also features specialties such as lamb kothu parotta and shrimp curry that many find aromatic and well balanced, reinforcing the sense of genuine Indian home style cooking. The atmosphere is consistently described as welcoming and convenient for quick lunches or take away, and the restaurant is regarded as a downtown gem with high quality and value. Some comments mention occasional inconsistencies such as a dosa being slightly overcooked or chutney amounts, or the space feeling a bit small, but these are outweighed by overall satisfaction with flavor, authenticity, and reliable service. Overall, Cuisine Arya is highly recommended for anyone seeking true South Indian cuisine in Montreal, delivering flavorful dishes, generous portions, and dependable, friendly service.

An incredible spot for authentic South Indian food! It's located in a shopping centre/ metro tunnel but there's a seating area with comfortable seats. Wonderful & attentive staff. An excellent find in Montréal.

If you can focus your on the restaurant, you can imagine yourself eating back home (any south indian restaurant in southern india). Authentic taste, great staff. Best south indian in Montreal, hands down.

Cute place. No ventilation...but that's not THEIR FAULT! Indian spot right in the corridor between Les Cours Mont-Royal & Industrial Alliance building on the way to Place Montreal Trust. Very cool owner. Great coffee. Very respectful service & kind attitude 💯☺️ Went with a friend. They need more Indian food varieties... OPEN MORE SHOPS!! I LOVE IT.
