It's really hard to beat the food here, one of the best in my opinion
Mashallah tabarakallah
After a lot of searching & asking local friends for recommendations I settled on Mama Khan for Pakistani food that my parents were craving.
We arrived early for lunch & were immediately greeted, & seated. Tanbir/Tanvir was a great host front of house & provided background on the restaurant & recommendations for my parents for authentic Peahawari style taste.
My mom continues to rave that it was the best Pakistani food she had on our weeklong trip across Canada.
props to Tanvir & the chef on taste, hospitality & presentation. Definitely worth visiting again with friends.
An absolute must try restaurant in town. authentic Peshawari food. The story, the service & the reason for the existance of this restaurant (social worker servicing the needy) are all great reasons as to why one must visit this restaurant. Without a doubt a feel good restaurant. Most likely to recommend & pay them a visit again. The staff is top of the line! We (Grillades Amira) wish we had the service & execution of this restaurant. Big shout out to the front & back staff.
Came in with my mom a few months ago & had a great meal. Turns out we accidentally stayed past closing but the server was gracious & even offered us dessert. Great service, great food.

The food is really some of the best i've tried here in the city. Its also a great price when you share with other people & split the bill.
In my case we were 4 people, we were all very full & ended up paying around $18 per person with tip included.
Also the service is really great, they were very friendly & always checking to see if we needed anything.
Nice find in MTL while traveling with family. Ordered Butt karahis (chicken was better than lamb) which were very similar to those found in Mississauga ie passed our Karahi bar :). Also had their Chapli Kababs which were really good! All that goes with nice naans. Def a must recommend

Entramos casi antes de cerrar pero aún así Than Ver nos atendió sin ningún problema. Las porciones súper bien, nos llenamos bastante para dos personas. Sabor auténtico y delicioso. Recomendable
Chana samosa is very delicious (It is only mentioned in the pickup grab n go menu). We tried their butter chicken. They say the dishes are for 2, but the portion was a bit small to us. So if you're really hungry & usually enjoy a big meal to yourself, i would suggest to take all the portion & order another dish too ☺?
Amazing staff, great food. Table d'haute is a must. Get that Peshawari experience. Full course meal.
Huge fan of their social activities. Giving out FREE hot meals to those in need since day 1 of opening the restaurant. Helping the community during difficult periods whether it be power outages or helping an individual without questions, Mama khan has shown true strength & courage by taking care of his people. Keep doing your thing together Mama Khan do it!

We had a great evening at Mama Khan : lovely place, excellent cuisine, super nice staff.
We were 9 people & shared dishes which I recommand to be able to taste a maximum of flavours
loved the food but would like to highlight the amazing service as well!! the staff was so nice & attentive. def recommend the butter chicken & the garlic naan
Je recommande vivement Mama Khan & tout particulièrement le menu table d'hôte à $35 qui comprend entrée, riz, salade, plat, lassi à la mangue & chai.
Tout était absolument délicieux & en quantité généreuse. Le serveur était patient, de très bons conseils & surtout très marrant. On a toutes passées une excellente soirée.
