Le 409 is widely celebrated for its flavorful Indian cuisine, unique atmosphere, and high-quality service in the heart of Old Montreal. Many guests appreciate the generous portion sizes, reasonable pricing, and expertly crafted cocktails that complement the diverse menu. While opinions on authenticity vary, the restaurant is frequently praised for its cozy, elegant decor and welcoming staff who strive to create a memorable experience for both casual diners and large groups alike.
For a location in upscale Old Montreal, Le 409 is so impressive ( I usually go park extension, lasalle & even north of sources west island for Indian food, so for a place in a touristy trap street this place is AGAIN very impressive. Sauces & spices are of quality. Food/plates/presentstion unreal. Decor is more French bistro look but it's still really nice. Prices are 100 percent reasonable. They can work on the music selection however. YIKES!!!
Ne prenez pas l'agneau. Pas assez cuit, très dur & 3 cubes avec sauce servi dans un tout petit contenant.
Riz en extra & pain a l'ail 7$ du vol.
Pas de chutnez dans un resto indien étrange & manque de coriandre. Le décor & service sont TOP. on paie pour le lieu
The lamb rogan josh was the best I've ever had. The garlic naan was had amazing garlic flavor, the basmati rice was perfect, they had Guinness on tap which complimented the meal wonderfully & the chocolate with almond slices & crème was outstanding. The staff were pleasant & welcoming & the decor & atmosphere was relaxed but also intimate.
I love visiting Montreal for all the wonderful restaurants it has to offer, but my favorite, & the one I always return to, is Le 409 in Old Montreal. Just the fun, eclectic décor is worth coming for, but the food & service is what will bring you back again & again. Some of the best Indian food I've had. I just love this place!
Le 409 is a standout Indian restaurant nestled in the heart of Old Montreal. From the moment you step in, the ambiance captivates with its chic décor blending Indian & Havana influences. The lighting & overall vibe create a warm & inviting atmosphere, perfect for any occasion, be it a business dinner, a romantic evening, or a casual meal with friends.
The food is consistently impressive. Each dish bursts with authentic flavors, yet leaves you feeling light & satisfied. A personal favorite is the coriander lemonade, a refreshing drink not listed on the menu, but the staff graciously prepares it upon request. This level of personalized service speaks volumes about their commitment to customer satisfaction.
It's unfortunate that they no longer offer lunch service, as it was a popular spot for my colleagues & I during workdays. However, I understand that operational decisions are influenced by various factors.
In terms of pricing, Le 409 offers excellent value. A typical meal, including a main course with rice, a popadum, & a drink, averages around $45 to $50. Considering the quality of the food, the ambiance, & the impeccable service, it's a reasonable price point.
Overall, Le 409 delivers a delightful dining experience that combines flavorful cuisine with a sophisticated yet comfortable setting. It's a place I wholeheartedly recommend & look forward to visiting again.
Le restaurant est bien aménagé & le décor est très beau! La nourriture est bonne, goûteuse & les portions généreuses. Ceci dit, mon repas supposément non épicé l'était beaucoup. Aussi, le service est lent donc vous devez être patient.
My wife & I recently enjoyed an incredible dinner at Le 409, an elegant Indian restaurant in Montreal. We had a dinner reservation & were excited to explore their menu, which did not disappoint. The ambiance at Le 409 is sophisticated yet warm, blending modern décor with traditional Indian accents. The dim lighting & vibrant colors created a cozy atmosphere, perfect for an intimate dinner. The service was equally impressive, with our server Benjamin providing excellent recommendations & ensuring our dining experience was seamless. For starters to share, we ordered the CHANA SAMOSA-a pastry stuffed with potatoes & spices, topped with chickpea masala. It was so delicious that we immediately ordered another round! The flavors were bold & perfectly balanced, a fantastic way to begin our meal. For our entrée, we opted for family-style sharing & indulged in several flavorful dishes: - BUTTER CHICKEN: Tender marinated chicken cubes in a creamy tomato sauce infused with aromatic spices. - LAMB KORMA: Lamb cubes in a creamy almond & raisin sauce, rich & mildly sweet. - LAMB ROGANJOSH: Lamb cubes cooked in a flavorful curry sauce with yogurt, mint, & spices. - CHICKEN TIKKA MASALA: Chicken cubes in a creamy sauce with onions, tomatoes, & peppers. To complement these dishes, we ordered two servings each of GARLIC NAAN & PILAU RICE, which were the perfect accompaniments to soak up the rich sauces. For drinks, we all had Mango Lassi. It was phenomenal - unlike the overly sweet versions we've had in the U.S., this one was perfectly balanced, allowing the natural flavors of mango & yogurt to shine through. Le 409 exceeded our expectations with its exceptional food, inviting ambiance, & top-notch service. This dinner was a true culinary journey, & we can't wait to return!
Excellent resto indien réinventé. Samosa déconstruit délicieux. Poulet korma, une merveille. Délicieux dahl, qui pourrait être un peu plus épais, mais les saveurs étaient magiques. Excellent service. Beau décors. Vaut le détour. Visites après visites, toujours aussi bon.
INCROYABLE: c'est le mot qui décris mon expérience. La nourriture était excellente, dans un décor magnifique & un staff à l'écoute de nos besoins. Parfait pour vos dates ou petite soirée entre amis! Prévoir que les accompagnements ne sont pas inclus dans le prix des plats principaux ($$). Je recommande vivement ✨
