Great option for quality Indian cuisine in the area. Consistently delicious food & great service in a beautiful bistro/lounge setting.

Really excellent Indian with a twist. Not the usual'sloppy curry'. Excellent service & ambience

We recently visited Le 409, a restaurant that presents itself as a high-end Indian dining experience. The ambiance was undeniably top-notch, with a refined, elegant atmosphere & the enticing aroma of various dishes filling the air. The menu was extensive, offering a wide variety of options. However, when it came to the food, I was quite disappointed. The Chicken 65, which is typically a dry appetizer, was much too hard to chew, with a coating that was unnecessarily thick. Surprisingly, it was the best dish we ordered out of everything. The Paneer Saag was bland & lacked seasoning, with no noticeable salt, leaving it flavorless. On a more positive note, the Garlic Naan was quite good. However, the Chicken Madras was a huge letdown-completely off from the traditional flavor. The overpowering use of coconut overwhelmed the dish, making it by far the worst Chicken Madras I've tasted. Additionally, the service could use improvement. The waiter took away our dishes after the appetizers but forgot to replace them when the main course arrived. We had to wait & eventually call someone over to assist us, which disrupted the dining experience. For a restaurant that charges premium prices, the quality of both the food & the service needs to match the cost. While the ambiance is first-class, they need to deliver good service & food to justify the high prices.

Although the lamb vindaloo was delicious, it just doesn't compare to the Indian food found in Surrey, B.C. Excellent service, but no a lot of privacy. Very cramped.

This restaurant blew me away. Not only the food is superb, the ambience is fantastic, servers are great, the prices are more reasonable than any average Indian restaurant in US. We were here twice during our short stay in Montreal & it was almost like another landmark visit. We had chicken & salmon tikka, chicken 65, Rogan josh, curry, korma & naans, all of it authentic & delicious. Menu was in French but doesn't matter since everything is worth tasting. I dare Boston to come up with a place like this For me this will be a go to place whenever I visit Montreal.

If you want good food in a bar/cocktail atmosphere, this is the place. The restaurant has an "industrial" interior design aesthetic, with lots of cool lights & silverware. This is an excellent place to have Indian food (near Old Port) & this is my go-to. They have a wide array of curries (creamy, spicy etc.) with different selection of meats (e.g. shrimp, lamb, chicken) & vegetables, with a good amount of spice. It is so special to find a place that pulls off a) homey b) classy c) fricking good food &) excellent service. Whenever I take my friends here, we always leave on a full stomach (the full kind where you have to unbutton your pants).

I wish I could find 6 stars. Our server was magnificent. The food was spectacular & the ambience is unbeatable. This is truly a hip, Indian restaurant & bar. The music creates the vibe & the chatter of the patrons draws you in. This is a "must" when visiting Montreal.

Nice Indian restaurant. Really good lamb biryani but rest of dishes were just ok - overall portions are very small in comparison to how high prices are

Visited during a trip to Montreal....great Indian Food & the service was excellent. I sometimes find Indian food to be too spicy, but they flavored to taste.
