Maison Inja offers a highly regarded dining experience in Montreal, celebrated by many for its authentic, flavorful Persian cuisine and welcoming, home-like atmosphere. Guests frequently praise the high quality of dishes like the Tahchin, noting that the food feels freshly prepared and thoughtfully presented. The restaurant is widely noted for its beautiful, cozy decor and warm, attentive service, which makes many visitors feel as though they are dining with family. While the majority of reviews are glowing, some patrons find the pricing high for the portion sizes, and there are occasional reports of inconsistent service or transparency regarding bill items. Despite these mixed remarks on value, the restaurant remains a popular choice for those seeking a memorable and traditional Iranian culinary experience.
The food is over-priced for the quality. The quality is okay, you would expect better with that price. The waiters are rude, specifically the guy who is responsible for sitting the guests. It is like he is doing you a favor for letting you inside the restaurant. & he is the first one you encounter when you go there. So you get an unwelcome feeling from the very first moment. The décor is very beautiful. I wish they had done a better job at hosting so we would want to come back. Plus, they should rename the "Shirazi" salad on their menu to "Greek" salad (almost). Regardless of the size of the ingredients, a Shirazi salad never comes with feta cheese.
Maison Inja is hands down the best Persian restaurant in town. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with warm hospitality & a charming atmosphere. The decor is exquisite
The atmosphere was nice but the food was not good. We spent $118 for tahchin & loobia polo & 2 drink. Not worth the money. The quality & taste of the food were so disappointing.

For me is the best Persian restaurant in the Montreal area so far .While the food isn't outstanding it is still quite good, making it the top choice for Persian cuisine locally. The decor is nice & clean, & the staff are good, providing the standard level of service for this type of restaurant. I also really like their logo!
Pleasant atmosphere, good quality of food, good behavior of waiters. The only negative point, in my opinion, was the high price compared to the type of food, as well as the limitation of the number of dishes on the menu.
Having enjoyed the impressive experience at Café Aunja next door with its great food, drinks, & vibes, I was let down by Maison Inja. The place is cute & the service was good, but the food (chicken eggplant tahchin & mushroom soup) was subpar & overpriced. I paid over $30 for a dish that was far from tasty-fine dining prices for food that didn't match up.
I never leave reviews but I was so impressed i had to. I'm a huge fan of iranian food & went thinking it was going to be the usual grilled kebab that i love- but now i have a new favorite; the TAHCHIN!!! The flavors were insane, it was absolutely delicious. The atmosphere is super cute too, as though you're in someones living room :) Love the vibe, the food, everything. I more than recommend!!!
The food was okay, few flies were constantly landing over our coffee drinks, the server never brought water or ask if anyone needed water, the servers would never make any eye or face contact once the initial dishes are placed on the tables, the attitude is such we don't care weather you as a customer ever come back or not, no refill on coffee period unless you pay $5.45 per small cup filling. The breakfast was a combination of items in small mini cups which are not what one sees on the presentation of the color photo on their menu such as a bit of Jam , a bit of peanut butter, a bit of walnut cup, it's not we wanted. We were expecting two eggs, fresh cut tomatoes, sliced pieces of baked bread & a bit of fresh cheese. Why would a restaurant just serve items which were not on the discussion & could be allergic to people & call this combination a cool thing. Would not recommend it unless you have no options left. Hope the management or owners would consider to remedy these issues.
