Tartine de saumon tikka divinement bonne
La quantité était généreuse mais le petit bémol c'est que les petites croustilles de pomme de terre dessus étaient fades & pas fraîches j'ai dû les enlever 🥸 je suggère que ça soit enlevé ou remplacé par autre chose qui garde son croustillant
Bénédictine butter chicken aussi bonne mais la tartine saumon avait un goût plus distingué
The food was overpriced & I was disappointed it didn't even include rice. We got the butter chicken & cod, the dishes were ok, but didn't feel elevated or elaborate for what you'd expect for the price, ambience, & a special occasion. The taste was very ordinary, like what I'd order in any food delivery app. The server forgot about us, my drink was late & when it arrived it was watery & tasteless with hardly any alcohol.
The food was absolutely incredible!! The staff was so friendly & I loved the recommendations they gave. The restaurant has a lovely vibe & it is affordable! The butter chicken & the paneer butter masala were phenomenal! Highly recommend!
Great brunch options, chicken + waffles is a surprisingly good combo. Prices are a bit on the high end considering portion sizes, but at least it's original.

Great restaurant- visited during valentine day- i had no idea we booked a bar seat instead of table. We were served by Anais. Great smile & had an awesome experience. Food was great but the lamb could've had a bit more meat. The chicken tikka was the best! The portion of rice was small, the naan was overpriced. I would recommend definitely!
Best chicken & waffles I have ever had. I've been coming here for years for dinner but first time I had the brunch. UNREAL!! Worth every penny. Great service too!
We were a bit impressed by the interior decorations but once we were seated, we were right next to the windows & it was so cold. There was a draft of cold wind which was not pleasant but we had a nice view which balances it out. The service was pretty friendly & welcoming which was nice as well. I feel like the food was a bit expensive, especially for the small portions but they ended up being quite filling. It was around 31$ for the seafood plate & 28$ for the butter chicken. The taste itself was pretty pleasant. Out of the many Indian restaurants I tried, I really enjoyed the combinations of flavors they had, especially with their butter chicken. The addition of the sourness from the tomatoes was really great & made it pair so well with the Nan bread.
My favorite indian restaurant in Montreal! I always go for the onion bhajis with the butter chicken plate & the garlic naan bread - the food is so flavourful & delicious! I adore their cocktails as well, they also have hands down the best grenadine as their shirley temple is simply the best one I've ever had in my life!

We were a group of 6 & enjoyed rhe atmosphere of thus stylish restaurant. The tapas were amazing, my cocktail quute decent.
However the main dish was found lacking, as my chicken was bland, displaying no sign of having taken in any of the savour of the sauce.
A bit of a shame & a novelty for me, since this was not my first time here.
India Rosa does some genuinely great food, especially for brunch. The Indian-inspired chicken & waffles is one of the best versions I've had: crispy, well-seasoned chicken paired with spiced waffles & sauces that are thoughtful & well-balanced. The Indian twist isn't a gimmick, it genuinely elevates the dish. I've been twice for brunch, & from a food perspective, it's been consistently strong.
Unfortunately, the service significantly drags the experience down. Both visits stretched well past an hour & a half despite the restaurant being far from full. Coffee ordered at the start of the meal arrived after the food was finished, & staff were often gathered near the bar while tables waited.
Montreal isn't exactly known for standout service, but this was notably below average, even by local standards.
Great food, frustrating execution. If the front-of-house matched the kitchen, this would easily be a four or five-star restaurant. As it stands, it's a three.
We ordered several dishes, & honestly, the butter chicken was the one we were most excited about. Unfortunately, the other chicken dish we tried, the chicken tikka masala, did not meet our expectations. I was expecting more. On the other hand, the garlic naan was absolutely delicious. The cheese naan was not as good, as the cheese was very mushy & lacked texture. I would definitely go back for the garlic naan with the butter chicken. For drinks, we ordered pisco sours, which were also very delicious. The restaurant is super cozy, very pretty, & welcoming. Without a doubt, we would return, but to order the butter chicken, not the chicken tikka masala.
A must visit for Indian food! I got the $39 lunch menu- choice of salad/ soup, butter chicken, rice/ naan, dessert gulab jumun/ mango sorbet.
10/10 food
10/10 service - super super friendly host & server
Would recommend their weekend brunch!

Visiting Montreal with my wife for the weekend to celebrate our anniversary & saw this recommended by a few people on reddit. Probably the best, most unique meal we've had this weekend & the experience was just a really cool, chill, hip vibe. Really good music & ambience. Our waiter was really friendly & helpful, & recommended two incredible dishes (Chicken & Waffles & a Butter Chicken dish) that blew our minds!!
Highly, highly, recommend!!! We're so happy we found this place!
Had brunch last Sunday & loved the food, new flavors, really a real Indian fusion for the typical mtl brunch. The gaufres & chicken was perfect. My only complaint was about the chai, expected a real chai…
What a fantastic place for a late brunch. We were a group of 3 friends with a 1:30pm reservation, more relaxed atmosphere, less frenzied. Excellent service from our server Thomas & company. We had the chicken & waffles (huge portion, crisp chicken cutlets with lime/cashew curry sauce?, savory waffles with spiced syrup), Tikka chicken club sandwich (juicy, tasty chicken), & a pancake stack with fruit & yogurt - all delicious. For drinks, we had chai latte, an Americano, & an excellent mango lassi. For dessert, we had a silky chai tiramisu & a fresh fruit cup. The vibe is easy, cool & chic. I will be back for sure. This is Indian fusion lifting brunch classics to a new level with subtle hints of Indian cuisine.
Wanting to shake up your brunch game? India Rosa is the place. Great brunch menu all with the Indian twist. We (2) chose two plates that we shared. We were not disappointed by either. Food was outstanding. We had the butter chicken Benedict & the lamb grilled cheese.
