Lakshana's Chettinad South Indian Restaurant on Saint Catherine has become our go-to spot - my spouse & I visit almost once every month. We always order the Podi Masala Dosa & Uttapam, & they never disappoint! The taste is consistently authentic, the portions are generous, & the flavors remind us of home-cooked South Indian food.

The dosas are perfectly crisp, the chutneys & sambar are flavorful, & the staff is always friendly & welcoming. It's rare to find such good quality & portion size in Montreal for South Indian cuisine. Definitely one of the best spots in the city for dosa lovers!

You will not get authentic south Indian flavor.
But the food was fine.

The food is bursting with rich, authentic flavors that transport you straight to South India. From the perfectly spiced Chettinad curries to the crispy dosas & fluffy idlis, every dish is made with care & packed with bold, traditional taste.

The service is warm & welcoming, & the staff are happy to explain dishes or help with recommendations if you're new to South Indian cuisine.

They also offer several Vegan options.

This place is really good! It is authentic Tamil South Indian food. The food is flavoured to perfection. Please try the special tiffin! You can't go wrong with this choice which will give you a sample of all the Tamil delicacies; there is a scrumptious masala dosa accompanied with coconut chutney & a spicy garlic chutney. You'll also get a medhu vada & a idli. You'll get ven pongal & a delicious pineapple rava kesari as well.
