DAWAT has built a name for itself catering for weddings over the years, we have now opened up a take-out restaurant for all to enjoy :) DAWAT mission is to bring you quality food at a low price. By cutting out most overhead costs and buying in bulk, we guarantee the best bang for you hard earned buck.
Taken together, Dawat is celebrated for consistently fresh, flavorful Indian cuisine with authentic Punjabi notes, where freshly made naan, generous samosas, butter chicken and well seasoned curries lead the way, and takeout or delivery is reliable and delicious. Warm, friendly service from a family run team adds to the appeal, even during busy times, and the range of dishes from tikka rolls to biryanis showcases depth and care. Generous portions and good value complement the convenience of pickup or delivery, and a recent reopening near home helps keep the same quality and hospitality. Dawat stands out as a dependable go to for home meals and catering in the Montreal area, with consistent visits and a strong sense of hospitality.
We ordered 8 plates of paranthas. That is supposed to come with portion of dahi & achaar. With 8 plates they sent us only a single portion. & when i called them to ask. The lady at the front laughed it away & said we forgot to pack more. This is zero cutomer service & professionalism. Even last year they did catering at my brothers wedding, & them too had the service issues with them. But we let it go the last time because we use to like their food alot. But now there service & quality of packaging as well has gone down significantly. The pranthas came as wgg or paneer bhurji. Very soggy & unprofessionaly packed.
Good & nice quality service. I arrived not knowing what to choose because of their wide selection & was helped by the worker. Ended up taking their chicken roll & was happily greeted by its taste & diverse flavours mixing well together, never would've imagined it. Will be ordering again!
Love this place, they are catering specialist. Update Dec 2025, I am a longtime customer & I am seeing a drop in customer service & food quality, I would say overall it's somewhat okay but management needs to pay attention on details.
Ordered from here last night, the portion size, the flavour, the quality, honestly wasn't sure to expect & was pleasantly surprised. Only thing is they don't have onion baji :(
This restaurant has generally been reliable in the past, but our recent experience was quite disappointing due to poor order management.
We placed a large order for 10 people over the phone at 6:00 PM & arrived for pickup at 7:45 PM. Upon arrival, we were initially handed someone else's order. Fortunately, we checked before leaving. At that point, the staff realized that our order had not been prepared at all, despite the advance notice. We were asked to wait another 15 minutes & to repeat the order, but ultimately waited close to 30 minutes.
Unfortunately, the issues didn't end there. When we got home, we discovered that one item-a vegetable curry (Paneer Tikka Masala)-was missing. When we called back, we were told it hadn't been noted. Additionally, because the food was prepared in a rush, the veg biryani was essentially fried rice with paneer & did not meet the usual quality or standard.
This created an extremely uncomfortable & embarrassing situation, especially since we had guests waiting for dinner. Delays, missing items, & compromised quality significantly impacted the experience.
I hope the management takes this feedback seriously & improves order handling & verification, especially for large or advance orders. I strongly recommend that customers check their orders carefully before leaving the restaurant.
We decided to give Dawat a try, & oh my lanta why haven't we ordered here before? Probably the best Indian we ever had ! Quality & price unbeatable! Can't wait to order again 🙃!

Its the first time I ordered from this place & I must say, the portion & quality of food is top notch. Everything was delicious & freshly made. Less options but mouth watery.
This place is extremely welcoming, the atmosphere is heartwarming & the staff is the nicest I've met. The food at Dawat way better than every other Indian restaurant's food by a large margin. The prices are very affordable for the quality of the food, I really suggest you go there & try it for yourself.
This was incredible food . I eat here often & never disappointed. They are very consistent in the quality of the food. Price is very very good comparing with other "luxury franchises" out there.
We ordered from DAWAT for a family event & couldn't have been happier. High-quality food, tasty & reasonably priced. They also accommodated the timing of our event. This was our first experience with DAWAT & will not be the last. Thank you!
