I came to Mama Khan from Ottawa to especially share this meal with a friend on my birthday. This was my second time at the restaurant & the last time I came was a decent experience & the food was good.
Last night, my friend & I went to the restaurant. The food was still quite decent. Here is some constructive feedback for the restaurant.
The server needs to be trained on how to serve properly. We had to remind him of napkins, water, straw individually. He was polite but not very competent.
The restaurant had no cold drinks. When I asked the server for drink options, he said there was nothing except tap water. Later he shared that there were some options for soda. He gave us some lukewarm sodas with terribly straws that did not work.
The bathroom (toilet) was incredibly dirty. We went to wash our hands & came out feeling dirtier.
Overall, while the food was decent, our experience was not good. I am from Pakistan & understand dhaba style dining & can tolerate a lot more than my fellow Canadians who don't understand if the service is part of'authentic' experience or not.
As a proud Pakistani Canadian, I would love Mama Khan to invest in some basics for their restaurant. The food is good, experience needs to be so much better. I shared my feedback with the server as well because the things I pointed out can be fixed with some effort.
Bottled water, cold drinks, clean bathrooms, better straws (even from dollar store) - some minor changes that can make this a much better experience for all who want to support the business.
Mama Khan, located in Montreal's Plateau, offers authentic Halal Pakistani cuisine with rich, traditional Peshawari flavors.
Mama khan gave the generous portions & high quality of the food. The Chicken Karahi stands out for its rich, indulgent flavor, often noted to be prepared with butter (or makhni style), making it creamy & satisfying. Although dishes such as Biryani are rich in flavor, the spice level may be mild, so it's advisable to request extra spice for those who enjoy a spicier taste.
The must-try Kebabs & enormous, fresh chapati bread perfectly complement the hearty main courses. The service is friendly, Mama gave us a free chai, completing a warm, family-like dining experience.
