Marche Moon Star is widely regarded as a premier destination in Montreal for authentic Bangladeshi cuisine, offering a variety of traditional dishes such as roast polao, beef tehari, and kacchi biryani that many customers describe as tasting like home-cooked meals. Reviewers frequently praise the generous portion sizes, fresh ingredients, and the warm, welcoming hospitality provided by the owners and staff, which creates a family-like atmosphere for diners. While the establishment is primarily recognized for its comforting, flavorful food and excellent value, the experience is consistently enhanced by the attentive and kind nature of the team, making it a highly recommended spot for those seeking genuine Bengali flavors.
Though rice is the foundation of Bangladeshi cuisine (plain rice, pulao rice, kicchuri, biryani, tehari, kacchi, even rice roti), it's good to see this restaurant upgraded from its initial offering of cooked frozen parathas (a few years back) to one of the best freshly baked layered naans in MTL. Some Bangla restaurant do not offer naans at all, just rice. So hats off to Marché Moonstar for its willingness to adapt & evolve to provide this option to other customers. The Bhuna curries are authentic & consistently well done.
I ordered ilish fish, beef curry, bhuna khichuri, aloo bhorta, & small singaras. Everything was delicious. The apu was also very friendly & welcoming. If you want to experience authentic Bangladeshi taste & flavor, you must try this place!
My wife, who is not a Bangladeshi but a huge fan of the cuisine, brought me here. We had the most lovely lunch date, & the Apu (big sister in Bangla) who took our order & served our food, made our experience even more amazing & wholesome.
If you want authentic Bangladheshi cuisine, THIS is the place. The flavor & content took me back to my Mom & Grandmothers' homes in Bangladesh.
The Kachchi Biryani with Borhani (yogurt drink) is PURE BLISS!! If you're worried about how spicey the food is, just ask them, & they'll recommend something that you can enjoy.
The bhortas are divine! Even just the white rice & lentil soup (bhat ar daal) was homely! 10/10 HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

This is as authentic as it gets for Bengali food. It's the best bang for the buck. It reminds you of Bangladesh, where the chairs & ambiance isn't so great but the food makes up for everything. The roast pulao reminds you exactly of what a traditional Bengali wedding. It's rich & creamy & filling with the fragrant pulao rice. Will be definitely coming back for more & recommend this spot.
I went to Moon Star restaurant on my short visit to Montreal from Toronto. I must say their food blew me away. Every dish we ordered had an authentic Bangladeshi taste: no fusion, no mixes no shortcuts. Moon Apu is incredible, her hospitality was beyond amazing. To top it all, she gave me a box of piyaju on the house for my way home to Toronto. If you are in Montreal & wanting to try authentic Bangladeshi cuisine….dont think twice just try this gem out!
Very good food. Fresh & yummy. The new Malai chicken is the best item. We ordered half chicken tandoori, lamb kebab, beef tikka, Malai chicken. All tastes really good. Took some take aways too- lamb kebab, Beef tehari & malai chicken. Beef tehari tasted awesome. Service is good, very friendly. Best part is the price is very reasonable & the portion is big. Good food with large portion but less proce than other places for authentic Bangladeshi food. Loved it. Will go again if we come to this city again. Or passing by. All the best to the moon star team.
