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!

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.

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