Ate here last night & I understand why the reviews are so divided. The food was cooked amazing. The tandoori vegetables & paneer are outstanding. The quality of the ingredients is better than any Indian place I have ever eaten at before. However, it is not strongly spiced & aromatic as I normally prefer.
I wouldnt bring friends from India here, but if you approach this place like a fusion/influenced by India place it is great.
Butter chicken, naan, & the tandoori veg were outstanding.
Cocktails & service were great, & I would definitely be back.
If you're newer to Indian food or have people in your party that aren't too food adventurous bring them here.
(Maybe there is a way to spice things up, but they didnt offer it to us)View more

My husband & I had a lovely dining experience here on a Saturday evening in early April. I made a last minute reservation for 8:30pm. Upon arrival, we had a warm welcome from the host who gave us a lovely table by the window. The restaurant is cool, hip, & chic with a ton of windows & a large bar in the center. Our waiter was professional & courteous. The food came out quickly with our 2 appetizers & 3 mains spaced out perfectly. All dishes were absolutely flavorful & delicious & our specialty cocktails were amazing, as well. I highly recommend!View more

Really delicious food & fast service. Eventhough the restaurant filled up by 18h30 & our server was very very busy, she & her team still did their best to keep everything going fast. But they never rushed us. Their catnip cocktail was delicious. The butter chicken poutine was a great surprise. I've had some before, but this one was by far the best one. Their vegetable biriani was also delicious. Their prices make sense for the location & portions are big & have loads of ingredients (the biriani had paneer & soooo many veggies), so the prices make sense to make. Overall, I had a great experience & will be coming back, it was delicious.View more

Wonderful ambience. Amazing cocktails. Great food. Naan was delicious. We had the lamb rojangosh ,which was perfectly flavored. Lamb was melt in the mouth. Shrimp madras was a bit disappointing. Shrimp a bit rubbery & too much mustard seeds made the dish slightly bitter, but still a decent dish. Would recommend.View more

Their menu consists of standard Indian food that most everyone likes but cooked to perfection. The onion bahjis & the shrimp korma fell into the category of best ever. The only dish that wasn't extraordinary was the nan bread which was a bit on the soggy side. Maybe the rotis are better. &, typical of Holder restaurants, they have a top notch cocktail bar. Our espresso martinis were delicious & effective!View more

Friendly bilingual service, beautiful decor, & a welcoming ambiance with soft music set the perfect tone for our dining experience. We were two adults & shared 2 appetizers, 1 main dish, 2 naan breads, & 3 desserts - more than enough for a satisfying meal. Appetizers: - Bhajee d'oignons - Saumon Tikka Main Dish: - Agneau Korma + Garlic naan Desserts: - Les goulabs - Crémeux chocolat Everything was delicious, but the Crémeux chocolat was the only option I would not repeat due to its high sweetness. I recommend the Catnip cocktail, as the lavender was so refreshing! Overall, it was a delightful experience, & I look forward to returning.View more

Had a wonderful dinner with my girlfriends. The wait staff is amazing & very welcoming. The food was absolutely delicious & some of the best we've had in Montreal. We ordered naan that was out of this world. Super fluffy & flavourful Butter Chicken, Chicken Tikka Masala, Lamb Korma, Chana Samosa, Aloo Gobi, Palak Paneer & Rice. Everything was devoured. The food came in 15 minutes after we ordered & was hot & served in the most beautiful dishes. They also have a great non alcoholic cocktail menu & very well presented. The decor in the restaurant is also beautiful & chic. We will definitely be coming back again. The prices are very reasonable too. We each paid $62 including tips.View more

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).View more

J'ai vécu un beau moment là soirée dernière. J'y ai été en couple avec ma cousine & son chum. Bien accueilli par le maître d'hôtel en arrivant, le barmaid nous dorlote aux petits soins en nous préparant un cocktail hallucinants!!! Que dire de la nourriture, phénoménal!!! Je le recommande a tous!!!View more

Our first night in Montreal & we found this incredible gastro bar serving my all time favorite combination of Indian food & cocktails. I'm not sure if the crafted cocktails were better or if the fantastic Indian food was the winner. My family had a fabulous dining experience with some of the friendliest service & most flavorful food & drinks we've had in a while. I would highly recommend Le 409 to anyone traveling to Montreal.View more

I have been to this location multiple times & I have enjoyed it every single time. They offer great selection of Indian fusion cuisine with friendly service. They also offer good variety of cocktails. They offer Raita, onions with tomato sauce served with cumin papadum as a welcome. We ordered Chana Samosa & Bhajee d'Oignons for appetizers & Butter Chicken, Lamb Korma, Chicken Korma, Butter Chicken, Lamb Biryani for entrée. I enjoyed every bite of our food & my favorite was Lamb Korma; it has a sweet taste that I don't normally go for, but was very delicious.View more

Overall I had a great time. Staff with nice, & food generous & comforting. Signature cocktails are really enjoyable, well balanced. They could use a finer choice of glass. Tikka chicken was flavorful, but a bit dry. I'm sure it depends on the meat, maybe a brine could help. Thanks for having me, I'll be sure to come back & try other entrees.View more

Un repas que je n’oublierais pas de sitôt !
Très bonne ambiance, restaurant pleins mais pourtant très intimiste, la musique était bonne & le service plus que bon & courtois, tous étaient très gentils & nous on servis de la meilleure des manières.
Concernant la nourriture, c’était une explosion de saveurs, des cocktails aux plats, un menu avec plusieurs choix, nous avions pris plusieurs plats différents à partager & tous étaient plus bons les uns que les autres!
Je recommande chaudement & vivement !View more

I have mixed feelings about this place. The place was full & it felt good to see so many people enjoying Indian food in Montreal. However the food was no where close to Indian, everything was overly sweet (& this is after me asking for the highest level of spice possible) so as an Indian the food felt weird.
At one point I did enjoy the butter chicken poutine as a French-Indian dish & it worked in my head for a bit. What I loved were the cocktails. Really nice ambience too.View more
