About

Cuisine Arya serves traditional South Indian dishes characterized by deep, authentic spices and careful preparation. The kitchen creates crispy dosas and light, fluffy idli alongside savory vadas and aromatic biryani that capture the essence of home-style cooking. Every plate relies on fresh ingredients to build complex layers of flavor throughout the menu. The preparations prioritize genuine, traditional textures and tastes, maintaining a focus on simple and honest food profiles. While the current recipes deliver a distinct and bold profile, there is an ongoing movement toward minimizing artificial coloring to let the natural colors of the spices shine through. This establishment provides a straightforward and reliable connection to the heart of South Indian heritage through its diverse, well-spiced, and aromatic offerings.

I visited 2 days ago with my friends & the food was good. The service was awesome, I just regret not asking the staff's name😝🫣 sorry for the totally inappropriate comment, I wish I lived there, sadly I just visited Montreal for short vacation. Edit: I gave 4 for food, as I didn't feel it was best, it could be better. PS: & Thanks to the staff who was very kind in taking the order & serving us, & also helped me charge my phone. His service was great, I don't know what his name is.

Today, I ordered a breakfast combo from this restaurant. The dosa was good as every restaurant in Montreal. It came with two idlis, medu vada, chutney, & sambar. I found a hair on the idli. Additionally, the medu vada was too oily & stale. The sambar was also not tasty & didn't taste authentic, unlike what is served in South India.

I recently had 65 biryani & kothu chicken, & the taste was disappointing. It used to be great a few months ago, but now the quality has really pathetic.

One of the best experience we had. Wish we had this in YYC. Make sure you book the thali in advance as it is limited & high in demand.
