Curry take out is bad. They put a lot of that oily spicy sauce to give the illusion of rich curry but the actual meat portion is only worth 3$. I mean only a few chicken or mutton bits. Will never buy again. Very disappointing. The note they leave below is cheating too; they act like caring about their customers. Bunch of cheapos stealing money

I am Sri Lankan, so I know the true cuisine & authenticity of Sri Lankan food. This restaurant started off pretty good,I used to be a regular here. However, over time, the quality has gone downhill. The side dishes at the entrance are often cold & lacking flavor. Dining in was an alright experience overall, but not what it used to be.

If you come here, I would recommend sticking to the vegetarian options. The famous chicken & mutton kottu often have a burnt taste, almost as if they are constantly reheated on the grill, & they lack the rich flavor you would expect. I would also suggest avoiding the Indian dishes like butter chicken, biryani, or similar items, as they are disappointing as well.

Sri Lankan food is known for its unique spices & the authenticity in every bite, which is why this experience was quite disappointing for me

Always get mutton rolls here. Had cravings 5 minutes before they were closing tonight & they were most welcoming. Been going for years.

If you like flavor, spice, & good portion sizes for the price, this is the place for you!

Came here with my family of 5 near closing, & still got the most hospitable, personalized service. Food was fresh, warm, & so tasty. They took their time with our orders, snd the girl at the front was also super friendly. Food was a 10/10 from all of us. Establishment was very clean.

Plus, their entrees, mains, desserts, & the mango lassis are all delicious. We had mutton rolls, vegetarian thali, shrimp curry, beef kothu, a few lassis, & even ordered seconds of our mains for takeouts.

Our total bill was much lower than we expected, so I'd 100% recommend coming here if you are on a budget or want some leftovers.

I'm shocked how low the reviews are - restaurant jolee is the best Sri Lankan food I've ever had. We make a point to stop by & load up our freezer every time we come to Montreal from the United States. We particularly love the beef roll, mutton curry & dals. Their food is simply delicious.

One of the "must go" places whenever we visit Montreal. Mutton biryani is my favorite. Other short eats are also delicious. It would be perfect if they give some gravy for kottu. However, it's really hard to find parking there.

Too spicy mutton rolls & fish patties. Takes a long time to get ordered food. They do not take online orders although they have setup payment that way. Good for people who can tolerate extremely spicy food.

Meat rolls & kothu மதிய உணவு அருமையாக இருந்தது இருந்த போதும் அதில் சேர்க்கப்பட்ட மட்டன் சிக்கன் போதுமானதாக இல்லை Lunch was good but the added mutton chicken was not good enough

Taste was good. Mutton curry was very chewy. Vegetables not hot enough. Paratha was the worst I have ever eaten
