Not only some of the best Indian food I've ever had, but genuinely one of the best restaurant experiences I've ever had. The waitstaff was busy, yet still warm, attentive, & absolutely delightful. The food was next level, & the whole place is dripping with the atmosphere & charm of Old Montréal. An incredible meal from start to finish. Make a reservation!
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!!!
We had a wonderful experience at Le 409! The tikka was cooked perfectly & packed with flavor, with spices that were rich, aromatic, & beautifully balanced. The creative cocktails were also a highlight & paired really well with the food.
The service made the evening even more enjoyable. Everyone working there was warm, welcoming, attentive, & genuinely lovely. Overall, it's a great spot for delicious Indian food, unique drinks, & excellent hospitality. We would definitely return!
I had an amazing experience at this restaurant. The food was absolutely delicious, & the quality was excellent. The atmosphere was awesome, & the service was great as well.
Every dish was full of flavour. Even the dessert, especially the chocolate cake, was very tasty, & the bar area was also nice. After a long time, I had such a satisfying & delicious meal.
I highly recommend this place if you love Indian food. The tandoori roti & tandoori naan were perfectly cooked, very thin, & not oily at all - just the right texture with amazing taste. A great place to enjoy authentic Indian flavours!
It is an average Indian-fusion restaurant. The food is a bit bland & a bit too sugary but I guess that is very common in this country. Not authentic. But that is not a bad thing necessarily.
If you give specific instructons then that will be respected. The service was good & friendly. & the atmosphere in the restaurant was chill & elegant.
I have experienced dine-in as well as home delivery.
Wanted to love the place given the other reviews I've read but the food was mediocre. The chicken tikka masala did not have the traditional chicken tikka & the sauce was quite bland- very tomato soup-y. The naan was decent but not like authentic naan, quite bready. We had grilled vegetables & paneer for starters…there were around 2-3 pieces of paneer with a whole load of inedible carrots (extremely tough), but the grilled bell peppers & mushrooms were ok. I'd look for another spot if you want authentic Indian food but the atmosphere were nice enough to enjoy with friends/family.
Really high, gourmet, best Indian food I have ever had - & yes I've been to London. Very inexpensive for Old Port area - at first I thought the menu prices for some kind of'tapas' or other gouging tricks, but then I realized no, that's for a main, & a truly filling one as well! Really nice, pro service who seemed to know just when to interrupt & when to leave you alone. A beautiful space too! Our new favorite spot in the Old Port!
