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.
My dad is a big dosa lover so it made sense to bring my parents to Dosa Pointe. Although it was hard to find parking, we managed to find a spot & just walked to the resto. They had so many varieties of dosa, so we decided to go with Karam Podi chicken dosa, Hara Bhara Lamb dosa, Gongura egg dosa & Mysore masala dosa. The dosa was tasty - you get what you pay for. We also ended up getting some ras malai & I initially thought it could be like the pre-packaged ones BUT it was actually perfectly sweet & softer. Staff were quite friendly & the place is quite busy. (Unfortunately they don't take reservations so make sure u guys go early)
P.S def not a spot to have a convo after having paid the bill. It's only fair to leave so, that others can be seated & there will be no space-hogging
I highly recommend this spot! ❤?

The food was amazing. However, my friends & I had a poor dining experience. The restaurant is super busy during weekends, & there are long lines before you're being seated. Once we were seated, the waiters were very impatient & kept asking us to place the order immediately. The moment we finished our food, we were kind of kicked out. The manager approached us & said'can you please empty your table as we have more people outside', which is understandable but we hadn't even finished our food & they were ready to take away the dishes. They were extremely rude in the way they asked us to leave.
Additionally, the prices are very high for no reason. I have been to better indian restaurants in downtown (for example, Bawarchi) that have more reasonable pricing.
Excellent spot for South Indian food in Montreal. They have a variety of options & are quite busy. However, we were refused to serve filter coffee as they ran out of it, which was a slight disappointment.

Had a very good experience when we were there. We were in a bit of a hurry but everyone there was extremely accommodating & fast. The ambience was nice & the food was simply excellent. Best south indian food I've had in a while. Strongly recommend this place.
Can be a little more clean. Advise the service staff to kindly clean their hands after wiping the table rather than just giving the menu or serving food.
A clean impression goes a long way.
The food was good & the portion size was perfectly given.
Found this place through reviews & can't say with confidence this place met it's expectations! Amazing food, good quality fresh & great service! Would highly recommend for South Indian food. Authentic & tasty!
It's packed most of the time but the food is worth every dollar spent so I would highly recommend to give this place a shot & you won't regret the experience you had.
