Reviews portray Maison Inja as a warm, cozy haven in Montreal for authentic Persian cuisine, with dishes like tahchin, lamb shank and borek praised for rich, fragrant flavors and thoughtful presentation. The ambiance is repeatedly described as intimate and homey, with Persian decor that makes dining feel like a welcome visit to a family home. Service is often highlighted as attentive and hospitable, though a few visits note occasional delays or inconsistencies when busy. Many reviewers consider the menu prices high but worth the experience, with the quality and atmosphere earning strong praise. Reservations are frequently recommended due to the small space. Some comments raise practical concerns about billing clarity and small annoyances such as water charges or service timing, but these do not outweigh the overall satisfaction. Overall, Maison Inja is celebrated as a hidden gem offering authentic flavors, comforting home style meals, and a memorable, refined yet cozy atmosphere that keeps guests returning.
It was a good restaurant & had a cute Persian atmosphere. Food was unique, & staff were friendly. However, note that the water served on the table is also included, & they never mention it. I would order only tap water if I knew its gonna cost me; I never had this experience anywhere. They also didn't provide us a bill, so I had to go back to check why my bill was more than expected. All in all, not a bad experience; we liked the warm ambience, but we had way better experiences in our visit to Montreal.
Maison Inja is the perfect place to celebrate a special occasion. The food is delicious, service is just right, & the decor is the perfect backdrop to a relaxed meal. Truly, it's a gorgeous but suitably intimate space. We have been several times & are never disappointed.

The food is DELICIOUS! Authentic Persian dishes that are definitely made with love ❤? the service was also amazing & the decorations are gorgeous. The exposed brick, wallpaper, & light fixtures all went so beautifully together!
Food is amazing & the atmosphere as well. The only downside is that it is not child friendly, I had to change my son's diaper on the floor because they don't have a changing table in the toilet.

Had a lovely meal here, unfortunately the service was mixed...several other guests that night were confused about it too. Either way the food was great, give it a try!
The atmosphere & design were unique & delightful. I ordered Lamb Shanks with Tah chin, they're were delicious & taste & use of ingredients were subtle. Honestly, I think I found my favorite Persian restaurant finally! Service was also good despite the fact that restaurant was crowded on Sunday night!

Je vais commencer par le point négatif car il est majeur à mon avis. Le système de facturation n'est pas transparent, car pour des tables de plusieurs personnes on nous impose une facture ensemble & au moment de paiement, on ne sait pas à u'est-ce qu'on a payé, ce que je trouve vraiment pas transparent. & aussi pour le pourboire, on nous impose au moins 18 % de pourboire ce que je trouve un peu abusé.
Sinon, je n'ai rien à dire sur l'expérience culinaire.
