Went there with a friend as I wanted to show the food that I love & eat back home & I must say... One of the best restaurants I visited since I arrived to montreal. We had the podi dosa, pokida, masala vada & my favorite, rasam. The best way to end your busy Friday. & the masala chai was amazing. The staff was lovely & made our experience really good. Will come back for sure.

Mediocre. Went in for lunch & there was a lack of personnel. No juice options for kids. I asked if I could bring my own since none were available on their menu, but was denied.

The service was EXCELLENT, we came in with a large group (20+) in the afternoon for lunch & the host was on top of everything! The sambaara & dosa were good, idli could be a bit more fluffy & soft but still good. The disappointing menu was the North Indian curries & the manchurian, it was all too sweet & didn't have the right flavor profile. Stick with the dosa.
