Authentic Indian food. The price for the buffet was very affordable. Many choices of chicken dishes from 2 different kinds of butter chicken & Chicken Masala. Also many other dishes to choose from. Excellent service & the waitress was very pleasant to talk too. The atmosphere was filled with Indian music.
Un régal ! les plats sont toujours aussi savoureux depuis toutes ces années. Les parfums du resto sont agréables, la musique n'est pas trop fortes, service impeccable & même les prix sont très raisonnable pour 2026. Bravo la Mantra. 5/5

Plats de haute qualités, curry savoureux & le restaurant est très propre. Il est possible d'ajuster le piquant avant de commander. J'y retournerais sans aucun doute.
We went on Friday with my husband craving butter chicken & this place did not disappoint. The prices are very reasonable & the food is absolutely delicious.
I'm totally addicted to the naan honestly, it's insanely good. The mango juice was also so yummy. The service was fast, & the two waitresses were very nice & kind.
The BEST Indian food. If you do not try this restaurant you'll honestly be doing yourself a disservice. Amazing flavors, fresh food, kind staff. Such a pleasure. We have eaten here several times & we not go anywhere else; it's that good! Highly recommend!
The food was disgusting & the staff were disrespectful. We waited for over 30 minutes & they served us inedible food. This was the last time I ate at your establishment. The receptionist was disrespectful, spoke lazily, & played on her phone while ordering. No service, no respect.
Un petit incident a livraison mais selon eux pas leurs problème.... Juste a recommandé une autre fois. Très cher pour un fond de sauce & au final 5 morceaux de poulet
Je mets 4 étoiles car la propreté est primordial dans un restaurant, la nourriture est délicieuse & bien présenté mais ce qui m'a réellement plus, c'est que le restaurant n'est pas surchargé de table & de chaises pour accueillir le plus de personnes possible, non, c'est accueillant & spacieux dans son agencement...
JE LE RECOMMANDE VIVEMENT

First, no one was there when we arrived, we had to go look around the kitchen.
You pay 2.50$ for a glass of tap water
Too much vinaiger in the soup
2 of the 3 plate had dry chicken...
The butter chicken was more like tomato soup chicken...
Lots of boxes & stuff in the entrance
Le waitress was sweet & mindful
It's the only positive point
⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?
Absolutely loved Le Mantra! The food portions were very generous, & everything tasted authentic & full of flavor. You can really tell they put care into every dish. The hospitality was great too - the staff were friendly, welcoming, & made sure we had everything we needed. Definitely a place I'd come back to again!
