Petit restaurant très sympathique. L'extérieur ne paye pas de mine mais il ne faut pas se fier.
Le repas était très savoureux. Le personnel courtois & sympathique. Le chef est venu expliquer le menu & est revenu plus tard s'enquérir si tout était à notre goût.
Je recommande chaudement.

The Biriyani is really bad, it's just fried rice without any flavour, other North Indian dishes are decent & portion sizes are quite small for the price. Maybe suitable for western palate definitely not the good Indian food I have tasted in Montréal . I am maybe wrong check for yourself & just don't order biryani

Super endroit, le staff fait beaucoup d'efforts pour proposer un service en Francais
Great place !
The service is always great, the chef will come out of the kitchen & greet guests when it's not too crowded & is willing to accommodate dishes !
