Les critiques décrivent Moon Star comme un lieu prisé et abordable offrant des saveurs bengalaises authentiques qui donnent l'impression de rester chez soi, avec des portions généreuses, des ingrédients frais et une hospitalité chaleureuse qui fait sentir les clients comme invités à la maison; le menu met en valeur des plats emblématiques tels que le tehari, le kacchi biryani, le roast polao, le piyaju, le halim, le bhorta et le thé au lait, et le propriétaire est souvent salué pour sa gentillesse et son attention, avec des horaires tardifs et un service via les plateformes de livraison qui ajoutent à son attrait, bien que quelques convives signalent des incohérences occasionnelles de fraîcheur, des plats parfois vieux ou réchauffés, une atmosphère parfois animée ou décontractée et des soucis occasionnels de tarification sur les applications; en somme, c'est une adresse à visiter pour la cuisine bengalie authentique à Montréal, offrant de belles saveurs, un service attentionné et un bon rapport qualité prix.
The food was AMAZING & the service & prices were great!! We shared a bunch of stuff, & the roast polao was my favorite! We also got free rice pudding! Overall I highly recommend!!
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!
I've been here twice. First time was life-changing. Not to be dramatic.
I was craving chicken & rice & got exactly that. Roast Polao. I savoured every bite & couldn't stop thinking about it.
I really enjoyed how it felt like a home-cooked meal prepared just for me.
The portion size filled me up haha
The staff are warm & the environment feels safe. Like I'm traveling somewhere & just popped in for a bit to eat.
Definitely worth trying!
Food:
Summary: Tastes like good home cooked meal, nothing close to bangladeshi restaurants or baburchis. Thats not an issue. Main issue it doesnt taste fresh, most items taste like it has been frozen for a long time & reheated when serving. Tried this place twice, & the food tasted stale both times. Price is reasonable based on local market.
Tehari: (4/5) tastes close to authentic tehari in Bangladesh. But the meat pieces were tough & felt like it was prepared long ago & re-heated. Not like it wasnt cooked properly, it was as if the meat became stale & tough by the process of freezing & reheating. But rating 4 out 5 still since taste was close to home.
Kachhi: (1/5) The meat was definitely old, stale, & reheated. The meat was tough & looked stale as well. It it did not taste a day or two old stale, it tasted like it was at least a week old. Rating 1 only because the rice had some hint of fragrance of authentic kachhi, but it is still far off. Plan to get a roast or something to have with it because the biriyani meat is almost inedible.
Roast Polao: 5/5. Tastes like home but the polao is extremely greasy.
Service: Service is very slow. Except for the owner, nobody else knows how to greet customers. But thats fine for a small authentic restaurant such as this.
Amosphere: Mostly a takeaway. Didnt feel like a place where I would plan to sit & enjoy.
Restaurant Moon Star is a hidden gem located in Park-Extension.
The food they serve, especially their chicken roast polao, is among the best of Bengali cuisine. It is juicy & mouth watering & you won't leave this restaurant without getting more meals to eat at home.
Combined the great food with the amazing hospitality of the owner who makes you feel at home, this place is easily in my top 5 picks to eat out at Parc-Extension. Do not miss this place!

We had sehri at Marche Moon Star a couple of night ago. 3 of us got the sehri platter (we chose chicken curry, shorshe ilish & beef bot as the proteins, alongside rice, daal, 2 types of bhorta, mixed vegetable & salad) & 1 of us got roast polao dish. The food was super tasty & fresh. We even got complimentary fruit & desserts from the owner & discounted price for the meal. The service is amazing as well. They are open 24/7 for the whole month of Ramadan. Highly recommended!!
I stumbled across this store by accident, & it has been an incredible experience so far. I have become a regular here, since they cater for midnight owls like me.
Recommended dishes :
- Polao Roast ( Generally 9.3/10 rating )
- Beef Tehari ( Generally 9.1/10 )
- Sheri combo is nice, usually has 3 varieties. (8.7/ 10)
- Tandoori chicken usually maintain more flavour than general montreal tadoori chicken ( 9.1/10)

If you want food that tastes like Bengali food is mean to taste like, this is a must try!!

Today visited this authentic Bengali restaurant with my family for lunch, & it was a fantastic experience. Their chicken biryani & roast polao were both delicious. For dessert, the kheer, made with coconut, was exceptional. The owner was very cordial & welcoming. I highly recommend this place!
The food is very good. The food tastes like home made. I ate there 4-5 times with my friends. Everytime the food was good & hot. Their Roast polao is very good. Recommended.
