We are two physicians went to this awful Pakistani restaurant. I am from India. She's from Pakistan. She was excited to take me to a Pakistani restaurant. I went with her to this awful restaurant'MAMA KHAN'. We were visiting Montreal. Originally we are from Boston, MA USA.
First & foremost, I'm not sure it is a Pakistani restaurant or it it is run by Afghani people.
The first order was Samosa. It was burnt outside cooked in high heat, so when we opened it one layer of Maida was raw inside. The potato inside was black & had a weird taste. We were hungry so we hate the outside part of the Dough, although burnt.
Second order was lassi- it smelled something awful. I drank one gulp & didn't touch it again.
The third order was chicken haleem but it appeared to me the chef forgot to put the chicken- it tasted like dal & wheat. Although it was not that bad. I ate it as if I'm eating dal.
The third order was lamb charsi Karahi. I could not eat even one piece. It was not cooked at all.
I packed the lamb as by now I had lost faith & didn't want to leave the entire untouched dish. I thought these guys may serve my left on table dish to someone else. We took the left over food & put it in a trash.
The Nan was not bad except one fourth of the naan was not properly cooked, so we discarded that portion & ate the rest of the naan with the'DAL HALEEM'🤣
Service- the kid was from Afghanistan & was decent. He was polite.
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.

We were visiting Montreal & searching for halal food & based on Google reviews we ordered food from them. The serving size was too small, although it mentioned 2 person serving on the website but it wasn't even enough for 1. Tandoori chicken was so burnt that it was black in color. Same was with chicken kababs. Karahi was tasteless not even close to Pakistani food. Also, on the website free soup was offered & I added it to my order but I didn't receive it. I won't recommend this restaurant.
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.
Finding true Pakistani taste is difficult when you are touring in a foreign city but we were lucky to find Mama Khan. The food was tasty & service was a-one. We ordered pishawari karhai, chicken biryani & Chaplin kebab. All were good. Parking is difficult to find though. There is a paid parking about 10 mins away.
First time trying Pakistani food & it was a pleasure! The Chapni kebab was succulent, crispy & full of flavour. The butt lamb was delicious, creamy, buttery, tomatoey, an expolosion of flavours. I must say the lamb was a bit fatty but overall, we had a great meal & will definitely be back! Also the service was impeccable, attentive, you can tell there is passion & soul in this place. Thank you!
