Visiting town & a friend took us to eat at Moon Star & boy let me tell you, it did not disappoint. This place rocks!!!!! I especially recommend the shrimp, dal puri, & a fried chicken & rice dish. Best bangla food 🤩🙏

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.

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'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!

Thank you, Moon

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.

I was very disappointed with this meal. The rice tasted old & had almost no flavor. The meat pieces were mostly bones & fat, not real meat. The dish looked messy & didn't feel fresh at all. Even the vegetables & lime didn't seem clean or properly prepared. For the price, this was not worth it. I do not recommend this place based on my experience🙏🏻
