Desi Tadka Restaurant is described in reviews as offering authentic desi flavors in Montreal with well balanced spices and fresh ingredients. Diners celebrate butter chicken for its rich, comforting profile and naan that arrives hot and fluffy, while halwa puri and nihari are noted among the best in the city. The menu also features gol gappey, pani puri, chicken tikka roll, samosas and a range of biryanis, including a value oriented dollar biryani. Many find portions generous and the food consistently tasty, with a welcoming atmosphere and friendly service that enhances the experience. The place is regarded as an underrated gem that delivers good value and quick service, with takeout becoming a convenient option for busy days. Occasional remarks mention spice levels can be spicy and one visit or wait times may be longer, but overall the sentiment is positive and suggests Desi Tadka Restaurant is a reliable go-to for authentic Pakistani cuisine in the city.
One of the best service that l had, the owner was friendly & l was so impressed with the tasty food by a great chef, l would recommend new clients to visit & experience their delicious cuisine, don't hesitate to go, a must!!!
Went in looking for the 6.00 Naan Roll takeout only Monday to Friday as advertised in the front. He asked my what type to chose from. Chicken, chicken Tikka or beef. I chose chicken Tikka. Turned out it was 8 dollars & when I questioned it, he said I gave you the choice & that's what you picked & it cost extra. So the chicken Tikka one is 2 dollars extra just because of some seasonings? Beef understandably might cost more. dishonest advertising!
Picture yourself at the roadside dhaba in Lahore Pakistan with amazing chefs & the hosts, who will replicate the experience similar to if you traveled there ! I got the chicken Thali . It was amazing . The taste of the food is similar to if I go abroad.. I promise you that. If you are in Montreal you are doing a disservice to yourself by not stopping here ! Thanks a lot guys. Keep the quality high as always. There menu has many varieties. The lamb Thali is next for me on my next trip !

This reviewer probably does not know what real Lahori food tastes like. The Aloo gosht and the Haleem as as authentic as can be. Have not tried anything else. There is no better Lahori food in Montreal except may be Shahi Palace in the west island.
This place is awesome every time I visit. We usually get the tandoor grill mix & fish pakoras, which are always fantastic. Whenever we try other things like desserts or chai, they're also delicious. The food is fresh & top-notch quality. The owner is really nice, attentive, & open to feedback. The atmosphere is great, & the service is amazing. I highly recommend this place, 5 out of 5 stars!
