I've been to this restaurant many times, & it has always been a great experience. On my recent visits, I tried the Mirza Tahchin & the Albalu Polo Tahchin, & both were fantastic fresh, flavorful, & served in very generous portions.
The staff are friendly & respectful, & the cozy atmosphere makes you feel right at home, like you're enjoying a homemade meal. I always leave happy & will definitely be coming back!❤?
The coziest spot in Montreal to enjoy amazing dishes by your Persian grandmother. Their specialty rice dish, Tahchin, is so satisfying. & the Persian Fog tea is like a hug in a mug. Will definitely be back. Not many tables so reservations are def needed for dinner!
We ordered kebab digi tahchin, as well as meat & eggplant tahchin. I especially loved the meat & eggplant one, it had such an authentic flavor, with a perfect balance of spices & textures that made every bite delicious. The kebab digi was very good too!
The atmosphere was beautiful, showing true Persian style, & the staff were so kind & friendly. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants to experience Iranian cuisine & culture. If I ever have guests & want to introduce them to authentic Persian food, this is absolutely where I'd bring them. Truly well presented!

If you are craving for a Persian dish & you want to experience an exquisite atmosphere, this is the place. Staff are kind, food is beyond delicious & it feels like dining in a luxury middle eastern place.
It's unfair to give them less than 5 star, however I want to mention that you should expect a pricy menu.
We tried the Lentil & the kebab Digi Tahchin & I highly recommend it.
One of the best meals I've had in ages. Started with the velvety beet appetizer, followed by the eggplant veal tahchin. Every bite was deeply flavorful & balanced. The server was kind & very efficient & the layout was warm & richly decorated without being gaudy.
Super cute Persian restaurant with lots of charm. We really enjoyed the ambience & the creative take on tahchin! We were a bit worried reading some of the reviews but the tahchin (kebab digi & chicken eggplant) were delicious. They are not your usual tahchin dishes - lots of aromatics that made the dish more complex & enjoyable. Highly recommend giving a try!
Lost a few points because of the pricing (not insane but the prices could be more reasonable for what they are).
This restaurant does have a very nice decor to it, but the food was overpriced. Rice & chicken for 40$, I know safran is expensive & its hard to make proper tahchin, but I still felt like it was a high price. Sadly I also did not enjoy my dish & my plate was dirty. The service was okay.
A bigger concern was after reading all your reviews, how I felt about visiting. Your answers to negative reviews are extremely unprofessional, which made me not want to visit this place but did so for my friends. People are allowed to express their concerns & dislikes, especially the water situation, as a huge Montreal foodie, I have never witnessed any restaurants put water on the table without the customer asking or without them being notified it is an extra charge. You need to listen to your customers, even if you don't agree, & this will lead you to having a successful business. I am giving you two stars due to this, the food & service is not the only thing you should be worrying about.

Maison Inja is a beautiful restaurant next to its sister café Aunja on Sherbrooke. We were a party of two & ordered the (1) Eggplant & Chicken Tahchin [$36.85], (2) Lentil Delight Appetizer [$15.85] & (3) Borage Teapot [$15.99]. The tahchin tasted mostly like chicken, as we were unable to see or taste the eggplant. Note that it is VERY filling. We enjoyed the lentil appetizer but were surprised at the few pieces of bread given (that was visibly ripped apart). We asked for more which came with a surcharge of $2.99! We were also tucked away in a corner where we didn't have any water refills the whole night & kept waiting for a server to come around. Despite the lack of attention from the staff & high costs, we had a wonderful time & enjoyed the restaurant's ambiance. I would highly recommend the borage tea & lentil appetizer! I will probably return & order a different tahchin to try next time. In total, the bill came to $82.41 after tax & before tip.
I loved it! we ordered traditional tahchin (eggplant & chicken), Adaspolo tahchin, & Veal eggplant tahchin, all were really tasty.
Although the menu has basically two types of main dish, tahchin or borek, they are kind of masters in making them!
Kind of on the pricey side of restaurant!!
From the very first bite, we knew we were in for a treat! We ordered the kebab Digi & the Meat & Eggplant Tahchin, & both were absolutely delicious. The tahdig was perfectly crispy, & the flavors were rich, aromatic, & well-balanced. The dishes came with a variety of sides, adding to the experience. On top of that, our waitress was incredibly warm & welcoming, offering great recommendations. The cozy & beautifully designed space made the meal even more enjoyable.
I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for an authentic & flavorful dining experience!
An Unforgettable Evening at Maison Inja Tonight, we celebrated a dear friend's birthday at Maison Inja, & the entire experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we walked in, the warm ambiance & elegant decor set the perfect tone for a memorable evening. I ordered the eggplant & lamb tahchin, & it was absolutely divine. The crispy, saffron-infused rice was beautifully layered with tender, flavorful lamb & melt-in-your-mouth eggplant. Every bite was rich, aromatic, & perfectly balanced-a true masterpiece of Persian cuisine. Beyond the incredible food, the service was outstanding. The staff was friendly, attentive, & genuinely made us feel welcome. They even helped ensure our birthday surprise went smoothly, adding to the joy of the evening. Maison Inja is more than just a restaurant-it's an experience. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply indulging in authentic Persian flavors, this place is a must-visit. I'll definitely be returning!
