Le Tandoor is widely praised for authentic Indian flavors and home style dishes served in generous portions, with items like tandoori specialties, dal makhani, palak paneer, butter chicken and biryani hitting the mark when well prepared, and naan and rice seen as reliable complements. Takeout packaging is highlighted for sustainability and convenience, with drinks packed in sealed cups helping to keep deliveries tidy. The restaurant is often described as family run, with attentive service, a cozy ambience and a warm welcome that makes dining memorable. Several reviews note improvements after a change in ownership and a skilled new chef, reinforcing the sense of consistent quality across visits, including catering for larger groups. While the overall feedback is very positive and many regard Le Tandoor as a top Indian option in the Greater Montreal Area, some diners report isolated disappointments such as bland butter chicken, underwhelming biryani, naan with burnt or odd bits, or a spoiled chicken piece, reminding that experiences can vary. Overall, it is viewed as a reliable, flavorful, value conscious choice that encourages return visits.
Very disappointed with the dishes, spent approx 300 on take out & most of the curry's were all liquid with little substance inside compare to other indian restaurants we visit.. Almost felt like it was a business tactic to generate higher profits. I will not return. I show proof of purchase with my receipt :)
Ce restaurant offre de savoureux plats & de belles portions ! J'étais inquiète car je ne mange sans gluten & le menu propose un grand choix ! Vraiment bien!
Very nice food & ambience.we got their take out & they had very good & sustainable packaging. Specially their Lassi & other drinks that they pack in sealed cups. Easy to carry & drink Well done on that. This also ensures that drinks stay untouched during deliveries.
The best food is Amazing & most if their items taste like home. we are visiting our children & tried their food. Very good Job done by the owners. We also met the owners family members & got to know it is family run business most of the days.
Absolutely love this place! The pani puri water is incredibly tasty, bursting with flavor. The pav bhaji & chana kulcha were equally delicious, perfectly spiced, & authentic. We've visited multiple times over the past couple of months, & they've been consistently awesome every single time. Highly recommend & will definitely keep coming back! good luck
Maybe the worst indian restaurant south shore. The biryani was the worst with some orange color. Butter chicken had no flavour & all the meat were dry. Only the samousas were ok. Stay away

LE meilleur restaurant indien, point. Service attentionné (mais en anglais seulement, malheureusement). Je leur pardonne parce que c'est délicieux. Marchez pas, courez-y! & profitez-en parce que vous pourrez pus courir en sortant de là 😅

I have been coming to this establishment with my father for a very long time but had not been in a while. We went recently & were pleasantly surprised by how excellent everything now tasted. The manager of the restaurant told us it changed ownership about 2-3 years ago & it shows that the new chef (her husband) is very passionate, skilled in Indian cuisine & is putting attention to detail in preparation. We will definitely be going back & even more often now! IMO this is now possibly the best or a contender for the best Indian restaurant in the Greater Montreal Area. If you love this kind of food, go there asap! You will not be disappointed.
I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to Neha for the exceptional service during our visit. From the moment we arrived, her warm welcome set the tone for the evening. The food was absolutely delicious-each dish was a delightful blend of flavors, beautifully presented & made with fresh ingredients. I especially enjoyed the drinks which was truly a standout. The ambience of the restaurant was equally impressive; the soft lighting & tasteful decor created a cozy & inviting atmosphere that enhanced our dining experience. Overall, it was a truly memorable evening, & I can't wait to return!
I've ordered here a couple times, I love it. The food is quite delicious. It is expensive though. However, the last time I ordered butter chicken, one of the chicken pieces had gone bad & I had to throw it out & the naan had these odd ashy grey bits stuck to it. They tasted weird. I don't get what those were & if it was bc they hadn't cleaned wtv the naan was cooked on?? & sometimes I find that the naan is burnt too.
Le Tandoor est toujours une bonne idée quand j'ai besoin d'un moment parfaitement confortant. La nourriture est excellente. Leur service est aussi impeccable.
