The ambience was very warm & inviting, with beautiful decor that perfectly complemented the Persian culture. The staff were absolutely lovely-welcoming, attentive, & always ready with a smile. The starters & main dishes were great. Each dish was a delightful blend of traditional flavors with innovative twists that made every bite a discovery. Their drinks were equally delightful, with a variety of refreshing, uniquely flavored options. Overall, this restaurant exceeded all expectations, combining delicious food, excellent service, & a wonderful atmosphere. Highly recommended!
The restaurant decor is beautiful & tasteful. However the food was a bit underwhelming. All the rice dishes we tried were heavily flavored with cardamom & cinnamon, making them taste more like baklava than rice. We also had to wait quite a while for the waiter to take our order, even though the restaurant wasn't busy. Drinks were perfect.

We ordered two different dishes, the rice was sticky & almost tasted the same on two different recipes. A bit expensive compared to other counterparts, starting 18% tip on card machines. The first & the last visit for us anyway.
We visited Maison Inja in downtown Montreal for a special occasion, & it was the perfect choice. The venue is absolutely stunning, with beautifully thought-out decor that makes the experience feel extra special. The owner & the wait staff were warm, attentive, & always smiling, which added a personal touch to the evening. The food was exceptional-Persian fusion with bold, delicious flavors. I tried the Lubia Polo Tachin & Eggplant & Chicken Tachin, & both dishes were outstanding. The Persian tea & dessert were the perfect way to end the meal. The attention to detail in every aspect of the experience really stood out. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves great food in a charming setting. I'll definitely be going back!
Great place! I really recommend it to try real Persian meals. Atmosphere, decor, dishes & ... are great. Being there feels like home. Thank you Maison inja. 👍
Yummy, yummy, yummy! The restaurant is small & we had no reservations, so we were lucky to get a table for dinner. Everything was so tasty from the beginning to the end. The Borek with beef & topped with pomegranate was delicious. The fresh herb seasoned olives that accompanied it just added to the flavor. We loved the individuality of each of the dining tables & china plates. Our only regret is that we don't live in Montreal for many return visits to try all the other dishes.
Truly delicious & amazing service! My colleague made tahdig a few weeks ago & I was absolutely enamoured. To be able to feel & taste that unique comfort food taste at Maison Inja was a huge highlight of our trip to Montreal. The beet bliss was also incredible! We did have the cabbage salad, that while refreshing, was not as exceptional as the other two dishes. I had the Persian Fragrance drink which was a beautiful complement to my meal. Decor & atmosphere is very beautiful!

I had the pleasure of dining at this amazing Iranian restaurant, & I must say, the food was outstanding! The Lubia Polo Tahchin had a truly authentic flavor that brought back memories of traditional Iranian cuisine, & the eggplant Tahchin was simply delicious with its rich, savory taste. The authentic flavors & quality of the dishes truly impressed me. Highly recommend for anyone looking to experience the best of Iranian cuisine!

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.
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 $5.45 per small cup filling. The breakfast was a combination of items in small mini cups which are not what one sees on the presentation of the color photo on their menu such as a bit of Jam , a bit of peanut butter, a bit of walnut cup, it's not we wanted. We were expecting two eggs, fresh cut tomatoes, sliced pieces of baked bread & a bit of fresh cheese. Why would a restaurant just serve items which were not on the discussion & could be allergic to people & call this combination a cool thing. Would not recommend it unless you have no options left. Hope the management or owners would consider to remedy these issues.
I recently saw this restaurant on my Instagram feed & decided to try it out. The decor & atmosphere were really charming. As soon as you walk in, it feels like a cozy nook in the middle of a bustling city. The decor, chairs, plates, & everything are super cute & picture-worthy. The staff were incredibly friendly & welcoming. As for the food, there weren't too many options, but the few items they offered were prepared with mastery. We tried the Kababi digi tahchin, which was really good & tasty. The sides that came with the food were also delicious. We also ordered the eggplant dolma, which was good but very oily, & some of the eggplant sheets were raw. Despite this, the presentation of the dishes was good. The drinks were okay-nothing out of the ordinary, but good. Price-wise, they are on the pricier side, more like beautiful fantasy type food. We ended up paying 105$ with tip for what you see in the pictures.
Today, I went with my friend to Maison Inja. The moment we entered, we were enveloped with the cozy ambiance & the familial atmosphere that is reflected clearly by the decorations. The waitresses were very welcoming & smiley. The menu is rich with the best Persian dishes, appetizers, hot & cold drinks, & sweets. They offer alcohols too. We had the beets appetizer which was so good. I took lubya with lamb & my friend kufta. The portion is big & satisfied. They offer the main dishes with a small bowl of yoghurt & delicious green olives. The iced tea is so good & the one with basil seeds (can't recall its name). After, we had a small tea pot consists of Iranian tea & cardamom with the delicious saffron & rose water cake. We split the things we ordered so each one of us almost paid 60$. So far it is the best Persian restaurant in Montreal. It is a bit pricey for many but it is worthy to try it once if you love the Persian cuisine❤️
The service & atmosphere at this restaurant was absolutely top tier. The homey & cozy decor made it feel like you were at a dinner part at someone's house rather than at a restaurant. We sat in the restaurant chatting & eating for a long time, but never felt any pressure to leave from the staff even though the restaurant was quite full. The food was also fantastic, as well as the unique & flavorful drinks. I appreciate the more limited menu, because everything was obviously made with care. I will note that a few of the dishes were slightly different than the menu description when they arrived, but it's no big deal. Maybe the english translations were a bit inaccurate? But overall Maison Inja was a 5 star experience. The atmosphere was truly unique & I will be sure to come back if i'm in Montreal again.
The interior design is so beautiful. The dishes, wallpaper, chairs, etc. have a nostalgic Persian vibe that we loved. The food was also decent other than Shirazi Salad which I didn't like as it's not a traditional one. I believe they should rename it so that people are not confused. Tahchins come with yogurt & olives which is a nice touch. I would have liked more eggplant in my chicken eggplant tahchin, but I liked it anyway because it was well seasoned & so saffrony. Overall it was a pleasant experience.
What an amazing restaurant. Loved every thing, food, atmosphere, details, design, location... We were a group of 12 from the USA & Toronto & everything we ordered loved it. Its was a great memorable experience. The personal were all very polite, kind & friendly. The owner of restaurant paid so much attention in managing this beautiful restaurant & cafe. Amazing Persian names for the drinks. Lived it! Details on the walls, plates, dishes, ... we truly felt grandma's house with the smell of rose water, saffron, cardamom, cinnamon. Highly recommend this restaurant. Thank you so much for having us.
