Depressing place but I wouldn't have minded if at least the food was fresh. I immediately felt sick after eating a few bites of butter chicken (which tasted far from authentic) . I do not recommend this place unless they completely change their recipes because right now it tastes like dog food.

Absolutely love Le Mantra! The food is consistently delicious & full of flavor. From the soft, buttery garlic naan to the rich & comforting butter chicken, everything tastes amazing. The chicken pakora is perfectly crispy & flavorful, & the mango lassi is the perfect refreshing treat to finish the meal. You can really tell that care goes into the food here. Thank you for always serving such incredible Indian food & creating a place I'm always excited to come back to!

Don't be put off by the exterior. This was a flavour palace. The madras chicken was excellent. Hope to be back & try other dishes

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.

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.

Best Indian food in Longueuil.

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

Ordered chicken tikka masala & shahi paneer. Both tasted more like heavy cream than Indian curry.

Went with my girlfriend for the first time yesterday, on a friday night. We both read a ton of one star reviews, as we usually do, before going. We were completely confused once there because the most''relevant'' complaints were so inaccurate it was almost funny. Here are exemples;
1. No service in french: The staff greeted us in french right at the door & insisted on speaking french to us even when we told them we are bilingual.
2. Wait time: The food was ready ridiculously fast.
3. Price & serving size: We took a combo #4 for 2. Cost about 40$ before taxes without tip. We had to take 3/4 of it home because we almost killed ourselves trying to finish it.
4. Opening hours: People say they turn people around at 9p.m. but while we were there, the waitress was still setting up fresh new tables at 9h expecting people to come in.
5. Presentation: Everything came in beautiful dishes, the chicken tandoori was served on a hot plate, still sizzling hot, like something out of a Michelin star restaurant.

Now a lot of people complained about the butter chicken. Let me tell you about the butter chicken.
That thing was so good, I was genuinely annoyed I could not finish it all at my table. I am not making a joke here, that night, through my dreams I would keep thinking about butter chicken. I woke up today & I just couldn't wait for lunch to finish it.
& to describe how good the naan was is not even worth trying with actual words, you'll just have to taste it.

TL;DR
Long story short, do not even bother reading the one star reviews. Something is wrong with those people.

The chicken was good, but it was in plate if oil, rather than a sauce. The naan was ok. Overall underwhelming experience.
