Star of India has been in Montreal for more than three decades. At that time frame, barely a few individuals and connoisseurs appreciated Indian cuisine. Nowadays, Indian cuisine is thriving in Montreal, because of its pioneering by few individual cuisiners. One has to put “Star of India Restaurant” as one of the first runners, introducing Indian cuisine in Montreal’s Indian Restaurant Map.
Because of its “Cordon Bleu” of culinary expertise, it has become immensely popular among dignitaries, politicians, people from entertainment industries and sport personnel.
Our Menu offers a vast selection of traditional Indian dishes, with the accent on flavour. Whether you like your Indian mild, delicately spiced or hot, you will find exactly what you wish, because there is something for everybody at Star of India. If you are a Seafood lover, we can suggest several fish and shrimp dishes; while for a Vegetarian, there are various choices of dishes and soups, all made with fresh vegetables from the market daily.
Among the main courses, you will find a range of delicious Masalla, Tandoori, Curry and other special dishes to suit every taste - each a perfect blend of herbs and spices. Choose from the very mild dishes, like the Butter Chicken or the Tandoori or from spicy dishes, like Beef Vindaloo, prepared with very hot chilies and lemon juice. To accompany your main course, choose from the range of delicious Indian breads: Nan, Paratha or Chapati; and there is the also options of vegetable side and rice dishes to make your meal complete.
As dessert, we provide, as part of your meal, an authentic gulab jamoon – which is a rose flavoured 'dough nuts' served with its sauce.
At Star of India, there is also a bar where you can choose from wine and beer options, like Cheetah and Cobra. You can be assured that you'll find the right drink to accompany your meal - whatever the occasion.

I wanted to love this place because very popular in the area. The prices are very reasonable. I just don't think the food quality is good. The butter chicken in particular to me was downright unpleasant. Lamb ok. Veg dishes ok. I'm gonna keep searching for slightly better quality unfortunately

Expérience géniale! Service parfait & discret. Très belles options de menu dégustation à deux, avec rapport qualité prix parfait. Tous les plats étaient délicieux (samosa, butter chicken, agneau & légumes) ainsi que le pain qui était fraîchement cuit. Les plats étaient très accessibles à tous car non pimentés. Cela peut d'ailleurs être un élément négatif: on ne perd pas de saveur mais ça ne pique pas du tout.

Dans l'ensemble la nourriture est correct mais je trouve qu'il manquait un peu de saveur dans les plats. Je n'ai pas l'habitude d'ajouter de sel ou de poivre lorsque je mange dans un restaurant indien mais ce fut le cas lors de ma visite.

We went there at 9:30. They close at 10, they were so friendly didn't rush us at all. We tried a mix of different dishes for 2 people. Everything was sooooo delicious, but butter chicken was another level!!! I am regretting why I didn't discover this place earlier! We brought the rest of it home & ate it for the next day lunch. It was giving us the same satisfaction! I cannot wait to go there again & try other dishes! I'm informing all my Indian food lover friends about this Chef's magic!

BEST butter chicken in Montreal. Try it once & you'll be back for more. All dishes at this location are excellent, but the butter chicken, like said, is out of this world!!!

One of my favorite restaurants in Montreal. Going to the Star of India is always a treat. The food is divine & the staff is friendly. The place is a staple in the city & is always busy, you know that's a good sign.

Came here with a friend. I wasn't impressed much but in general the food was ok & service was not bad. A typical Indian menu nothing special. The place can be cozy for some or a bit small for others. Their prices are a bit high considering the quality of food served. Parking can be a bit difficult. I recommend ordering a takeout rather than dine in.

Exceptional food & service. Priced fairly. Been going frequently for over 2 years. They are very friendly & make sure to follow my specific requests (spiciness level, for example). Only great things to say about this place!
