Review Summary

Mama Khan is widely regarded as a standout destination in Montreal for authentic, high-quality Pakistani cuisine, with many patrons praising the flavorful chicken karahi, chapli kebabs, and fresh, tandoor-made naan. While the vast majority of diners describe their experiences as delicious and reflective of traditional, homemade meals, a small number of visitors have noted occasional inconsistencies in food quality, service efficiency, and dining room cleanliness. Despite these isolated critiques, the restaurant is frequently lauded for its warm, welcoming hospitality and, perhaps most notably, its commendable commitment to community outreach through regular charitable meal programs, which has earned the establishment significant respect and loyalty from its customers.

Mama Khan, Montreal - A Memorable Taste of Authentic Pakistani Food
We visited Mama Khan in Montreal in 2023
& had an enjoyable experience, particularly because of the Chapli Kababs & lamb Karahi.
The Chapli Kababs were the highlight of our meal. We were told they were prepared using the owner's mother's recipe, & the homemade touch was clearly reflected in the taste. They were incredibly juicy, tender & packed with flavour, with a wonderful balance of spices. It had been a long time since we had eaten Chapli Kababs this good. They tasted authentic & were cooked perfectly without being dry or overly greasy. 4/5

The Lamb Karahi was also excellent. It was rich, aromatic & very flavourful, with tender, soft pieces of lamb. The spices & masala complemented the meat nicely, making it a comforting & satisfying dish. It paired really well with naan & was definitely worth ordering. 4/5

The Chicken Biryani was decent, but compared with the Chapli Kababs & Karahi, it did not stand out as much. It was okay in terms of flavour & portion, but it could have benefited from a stronger aroma & more depth in the masala. 3/5
The ambience was fairly simple & just okay, so the restaurant is more about enjoying the food than having a premium dining experience. Parking can also be difficult to find in the surrounding area, so it is better to allow some extra time.

Overall, Mama Khan offered us a satisfying Pakistani meal, with the juicy Chapli Kababs being the clear winner. I would definitely recommend visiting for the Chapli Kababs & Karahi, especially for anyone looking for authentic, homemade-style flavours in Montreal.

Very disappointing food for a 4.6 rated restaurant.
Ordered the saag paneer, chana & a shredded chicken curry. Would only touch the chana again. Hard to find any chicken & the dish developed a skin.
Restaurant was empty with overly loud music to mask the kitchen noise.
Service was poor, not much engagement from our waiter.
Maybe we ordered the wrong dishes but from what we got I wouldn't want to try any others. Waste of a meal when other options available across Montreal.
What a shame.

I have been coming to this restaurant for many years & unfortunately, I have watched the service decline. At least two times that I have gone on hot summer days, they have no soft drinks available. When I notified the server that this is the second time that I've come & this has happened, he was defensive & rude about it. I was shocked how abrasive he became rather apologizing for the inconvenience. I thought about calling the owner but if he's hiring belligerent staff, then how different can he be. I will likely not recommend Mama Khan again since clearly there is a steep decline in service & respect for the customer.

Came by for dinner after a day of traveling, the food was delicious. The Chicken Karahi was flavorful, & the Chana was some of the best I have eaten in a while. Two thumbs up!!!

The karahis are juste insane the gravy is perfectly Spiced & the naans are minute made in the tandoor. The server was comprehensive even with mant orders going on at the same time. Honestly mama khan is just grate ppl must be patient a bit bc on a rush time it can't be perfect at 200%. Btw I advice u guys to make a reservation before coming so that your spot is secured & its more easier for the service. Brunch of familles pulling up at the same time without reservation is not the smartest idea
