Amazing food, great service, & a super welcoming atmosphere make Dera Restaurant a place I would highly recommend to anyone! Everything we tried came out hot, fresh, & full of authentic flavor, with generous portions at very reasonable prices. The staff were friendly & fast, ensuring we had a fantastic meal from start to finish, so I will definitely be coming back again soon! But very over priced

We had a wonderful experience at Dera Restaurant! The biryani was absolutely delicious-full of authentic flavor & perfectly cooked. A special thank you to the pani puri stall outside the restaurant. The pani puri was fresh, tasty, & a perfect addition to our meal. Friendly service, great atmosphere, & amazing food. Highly recommended, & we'll definitely be back! 😊🍛🥣

Great Pakistani food & best samosas in Mtl but sauce is an extra charge. I was lucky to get the freshest jalebis in town, doesn't happen every day in MTL.

I ordered four chicken biryanis yesterday. I've always enjoyed your food, which is why this experience was disappointing. This is the first time I've received takeaway biryani that had an unpleasant smell even before opening it, & the rice itself seemed off.
I believe it's important to consistently serve fresh food & maintain the quality your customers expect. I'm not seeking a refund-I'm sharing this feedback because I value your reputation & hope you continue to prioritize freshness & customer satisfaction.
I've already left a message with the receptionist & hope this reaches the owne

Had halwa puri nashta with my whole family today. The food was amazing & so fresh. Really enjoyed the portion size & the flavours. Not only, but the staff was very friendly & nice, especially the one who was wearing a black cap. Very nice & clean atmosphere, as travellers, we really enjoyed.

Place was empty so we enjoyed the environment. Food was from Sandhu so it had to be fresh. It was warm good & the taste was OK.

We had a wonderful family dinner at Dera Restaurant. The food was fresh, flavorful, & truly authentic. The haleem & chicken tikka were outstanding, & the staff made us feel very welcome. Murtaza is the most handsome owner & kind. If you need special spices touch go see him. The atmosphere is perfect for family gatherings. Highly recommend for anyone looking for quality Pakistani cuisine in Montreal!

This is the worst food I have ever had-completely unacceptable. The food tasted rotten, & all you could taste were overpowering spices. The haleem was really bad, & the nihari was extremely spicy with no proper flavor balance. Nothing tasted fresh or enjoyable.

Every time we go to Desi Mandi to pick up meat, we end up going to Dera, & every single time we regret it. The quality is consistently terrible, the taste is awful, & it's a total waste of money. We keep giving it chances, & it disappoints us every time. Definitely not recommended.

I heard the news that this restaurant is serving Halwa Puri. In my excitement I go check it out on a Sunday. Unfortunately, it did not start well.

1st whatever they have playing on their sound system is so depressing & LOUD it ruins any good mood & causes a headache!

2nd Halwa Puri in taste was below average. You would think a Pakistani restaurant known for its originality would have made the Channa with some spices but no. It was bland. Halwa itself had no flavour no sweetness or taste of desi ghee. The only good thing was the freshness of puri.

3rd I know ordering Halwa Puri is not the biggest order but the server looked annoyed by me dinning in for it. I still left $10 tip on a $20 bill. Because I know server/hostess work very hard.

I do not recommend wasting your trip. I hope the team at the restaurant takes this feedback with a grain of salt. I know you work hard but for Halwa Puri & ambiance you didn't deliver.
