Maison ChaïShaï is praised for authentic Indian and Pakistani flavors, a standout chai program, and a diverse menu that covers classic street foods, hearty mains, and creative twists like butter chicken poutine. The ambiance is described as warm, colorful, and welcoming, with a family-run vibe and generally friendly service, though a few visits note slower pacing or inconsistency. Flavors are repeatedly highlighted as delicious and satisfying, with chai, Kashmiri chai, samosas, dahi puri, pani puri, biryani, and desserts like Gulab Jamun earning frequent praise, while some guests find portions small for the price or question value. Many reviewers say they would return for the food and atmosphere and appreciate the reasonable prices and the option to try traditional and fusion dishes in one place.
It was great I tried paneer tikka masala it was tasty, but if you like spicy food tell them before because they serve food with too less spices. Although,masala fries were too great .🍽?.
Masala chai was prettty tasty, I liked the spice blend. Haryali & Malai boti chicken wraps were good & filling. Seekh kebab had terrible texture & the flavour didn't help. Gulab Jamun cheesecake was well presented but could have had better texture & flavour.
Maison Chaisai: A Nice Spot for Chai & Snacks Maison Chaisai offers a decent ambiance & good food, making it a pleasant place to hang out for chai & snacks. The butter chicken poutine was enjoyable, & the samosa chaat was a hit with everyone at our table. The highlight of our meal was the gulab jamun cheesecake, which truly stood out. While the service could have been slightly better, the overall experience was still positive. Maison Chaisai is a nice spot for a casual outing with friends, & I look forward to returning for more of their tasty offerings.

Really great Indian street food "chowpatti". The resto is Kashmiri (part in India, part in Pakistan), so there's a good mix of veg & non-veg, along with Kashmiri specialities like tea & desserts. I highly recommend the butter chicken poutine, great flavor, tasty sauce, good portions.
first experience at chaishai was good. The place its beautifully decorated & the food was tasty & well plated. They have Best Kashmiri chai. However, the food is expensive for the portions you get:(
The ambience is very beautiful .All the recipes here are all tasty .People are really friendly & sweet . Try all the menu taste is really amazing. But try to visit this restaurant looking at the interior it feels elegant.
Great place for tasty indian food, I found all the dishes I like, it looks fresh, & it's served pretty quickly in nice plates. Prices are fair. Went on Sunday evening it was easy to find a table. Easy to order. Hot beverages & desserts available on the go (try the karak Chai & pink Chai). Employees were nice too. The place looks clean. The only downside I could find is that we expected a more premium restaurant from the pictures, like classic table decoration, waiter etc which is not a problem but depends on what you are looking for & the occasion, as it works more like a take away place (menu & orders at the counter at the beginning). So it's good to know if it's for a special date or something. We really enjoyed it & will definitely come back!
The service was amazing to begin but the food wasn't . There is very little variety of food . We got chicken boti .there was some of the pieces were undercooked & we found hair in it , then we got butter paneer & It wasn't bad & the Chana masala was lacked masala cuz it was flavourlesss . The naan were so thick & weren't cooked properly . None of the dessert was tasty . All in all the service & atmosphere is good but not food
Small portions, some of the chicken wraps are very dry. Nevertheless I must admit that the biryani rice is so aromatic & tasty as well as the onion pakoras. The staff is very friendly
Decided to check this place out over the weekend. Ordered Samosas, Kashmiri Chai, gulabjamun n gulabjamun cheesecake.
Was glad to see butter chicken poutine-sort of fusion Indo Québécois’s!
