Dosa Pointe is described as a bustling, family friendly spot where consistent bold, authentic South Indian flavors come through in crispy dosas, fluffy idli, and flavorful sambar and chutneys. The menu spans a wide range from classic dosas such as masala dosa and Mysore dosa to Chettinad lamb keema dosa and popular Indo Chinese options like chilli garlic noodles and hakka noodles, all offered in generous portions and good value. Reviewers praise friendly, attentive service and a lively atmosphere, though crowds can mean waits and a crowded room, especially on weekends. While some notes mention occasional oiliness or sambhar that could be spicier, the overall consensus is that the authenticity and quality make Dosa Pointe a top choice for South Indian and Indo Chinese cravings in Montreal. Overall, it is seen as a must visit for dosa lovers and a place that many feel delivers home style flavors and memorable meals.
I have visited Dosa Pointe multiple times, & unfortunately, this experience was disappointing again.I had to leave a review
We ordered one achari masala dosa, one veg noodles, & two rose lassis. The lassi arrived first, followed by the dosa-but the veg noodles never came at all. We were two people dining together, & only one of us got their meal while the other kept waiting.
We didn't follow up immediately because this has happened 3-4 times before, & we've always tried to be understanding since restaurants can get busy. However, this time it wasn't even crowded, & still there was no check-in from the staff or acknowledgment of the missing order.
One thing I've consistently noticed is that this issue seems to happen whenever we order Indo-Chinese items. If that section of the menu cannot be managed properly, it might be better not to take those orders instead of leaving customers waiting indefinitely.
The food we did receive was good, but the service really needs improvement. I hope this feedback is taken seriously.
The best doses in town! Coming from south India, I have found a place which serves the most authentic & tasty doses, vadas & idly that satisfies all my cravings away from home!
They also have the classic indo Chinese street style food that will leave you wanting for more. A family & freinds favorite restaurant, friendly service & awesome food! A must try restaurant in montreal for all dose lovers!

Absolutely the best South Indian food in Montreal - stacks up to some dosas I've had in India. Also great Indian Chinese. Also, I'm a regular here & have an allergy & the servers remember it better than I do.
Visited again on 3 Feb, & had a plate of Vada … this time sambhar was really tasty & chutney were nice. Vada was not fresh, but decent.
Chilli garlic noodles was spicy & tasted nice, but it was a little more oily.
Their Indo-Chinese dishes are a must try.

Trio fried rice with manchurian was really very tasty, i did request for spicy & it was to the mark… awesome & i will try their other Indo-Chinese dishes.
As for the mysore masala dosa, it lacked the authentic taste, just had the podi chutney :( i didn't like the sambhar either, chutney were fine. For this price, this would be 1.5-2**
Best Indo Chinese food that I enjoyed after long time. Super yummy will definitely come again to enjoy it. Brought back India memories.
13 yrs in Canada , & I also get 😞 with the Indian Chinese options in Montreal. Good job dosa pointe.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
One of the best dining experiences I've had in a long time! We ordered the lacha paratha with butter paneer, & it was absolutely delicious. The paratha was flaky & perfectly layered, & the butter paneer was rich, creamy, & full of flavor - just the right amount of spice & sweetness.
We also tried their noodles, & they were a pleasant surprise! Perfectly cooked, nicely seasoned, & had that classic Indo-Chinese kick we love. It's great to find a place that excels in both North Indian & Indo-Chinese dishes.
The staff was friendly & attentive, & the overall atmosphere was clean & welcoming. A must-visit if you're craving comforting Indian food with a side of flavorful Chinese dishes. Highly recommend!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
An absolute gem for both South Indian & Indo-Chinese cuisine! The dosas here are some of the best I've ever had - perfectly crispy, generously filled, & served with flavorful chutneys & piping hot sambar. We tried the masala dosa & Mysore dosa, & both were outstanding.
What really surprised us was how good their Chinese food was too! The chilli paneer & hakka noodles were bursting with flavor - just the right amount of spice & perfectly cooked. It's rare to find a place that does both cuisines so well.
The service was friendly, the portions generous, & the restaurant was clean & comfortable. Whether you're in the mood for traditional South Indian or spicy Indo-Chinese, this place delivers on all fronts. Highly recommended!

Great food. We tried paper ghee masala dosa, veg manchurian & veg hakka noodles. Food was tasty. Happy to find a great place serving indo chinese & hakka. Usually places with south indian do not have great hakka food but this place did a great job with both. Decent pricing, tasty food & good service.

Amazing place to enjoy South Indian & indo Chinese, I would like to give special shoutout to one of the server Dilpreet, she is really helpful & give some great choices of food💖
If you're craving a delightful mix of South Indian & Indo-Chinese cuisine, Dosa Pointe is the place to be. Their idlis are soft & fluffy, served with an array of chutneys that perfectly complement each bite. The dosas are crisp & golden, generously filled with your choice of savoury fillings. On the Hakka side, their noodles & fried rice are a treat, striking the right balance of flavours & spices. The ambiance is warm, & the service is prompt & friendly. Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy a diverse & satisfying meal!
Best Restaurant in Montreal I have been a flight attendant & have visited many places & have tried different foods, but I have never eaten food like this. They have a lot of variety & fresh food. My Favorite is Chettinad Chicken Dosa. I love their Indo Chinese Cuisine as well.
