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.

The dosa is good & so is the wade but the curry & the idle felt artificial.

I had a special of the day lamb Kothu Parotta. It was delicious, perfumed & just the right amount of spicy.

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.
