Indian food has become our go to. When we can't decide on a restaurant for a Saturday night, Indian food rarely disappoints.
Friends, who live in the West Island recommended this place so we double dated to give it a try.
Because the menu was so extensive it took us a few minutes to figure out what we wanted to order.
We decided to share, between the 4 of us, the Samosa Chaat with Chick Peas. The 2 vegetable samosas were cut into 6 pieces & covered in a chicken pea curry. This was not a spicy dish & is very filling. Delicious!
Then we ordered, a Chicken 65, the Chili Garlic Chicken, a plain Naan & a rice.
The Chicken 65 was a nice size plate of breaded tender mortals of chicken with curry leaves, ginger, garlic & mustard seeds mixed into a red sticky sauce. Very Good!
The Chili Garlic Chicken is found on the Indian Chinese portion of their menu. Why not try something different. It wasn't. It was the same small cut up pieces of chicken but with a garlic, chili, onion & green pepper sauce. A cut up basket of Naan & fluffy basmati rice followed.
Being the first time we're eating here, we were pleasantly surprised.
The food was loaded with flavor, & served hot.
The service could have been quicker & more attentive.
Would we ever go back? For sure.
We've eaten there twice. Chicken Cheri & was delicious, also aloo baigan. Mixed vegetables, rice & naan. We liked the Malai kofta sauce, but less the balls. The service was very good. Watch out the front door slams when both doors are open. My hand got hurt by the slam.
We will be back to try other items on the menu.
Very delicious Indian food & in my opinion, best enjoyed at the restaurant where it's served hot & fresh. All the dishes we ordered were so flavourful. I usually find biryanis a bit dry but their Chicken Biryani is the best I've had. We also really enjoyed the Butter Chicken, the Baingan Bharta (eggplant) & the Andhra Style Prawns Masala. We brought leftovers home & it was still delicious the next day.
We went here for dinner after a couple years for our mom's birthday. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. The food was so good & all came out on time. We enjoyed a variety of dishes from samosa chaat, onion bhaji, fish pakora, chicken tikka, kabobs, chicken curry & a variety of veggie dishes. Their tandoori skills are fantastic! I highly recommend trying those dishes. I know everyone goes for the creamy ones like butter chicken, but the chicken curry is fantastic! The best part is that you know they are using good ingredients in a clean kitchen because all 7 of our group felt great after the meal. The only improvement that I think would elevate it to the next level is to invest in a proper serving staff. While there were really nice, it would take this restaurant to the next level. Well done! Definitely one of the best Indian restaurants in Montreal.
Delicious lunch takeaway, a little pricy for me at 39$ for 2 meals but very fresh & tasty. Ordered twice in 2 days. Even the little salad is crunchy with high quality ingredients. The flavours are all there. The meals heat is well sealed. Portion is a little smaller than I'd like, there's about 5-6 pieces of chicken. The decor of the place is lovely, it would be nice to eat in one day.
Very nice, spacious restaurant with gorgeous walls ❤?❤? The service is fantastic & the owners are very welcoming 😇😇 We had the Delhi Chaat Platter (half) , chicken momos, & Chilli Garlic Chicken & each bite was very delicious ❤?❤? Full compliments to the chef for making such tasty Indian food! Perfect 10/10 Indian restaurant to bring your friends & family & enjoy the delicacies 🎉🎉
We had an amazing experience at Masala Art! From the moment we walked in, the staff was warm & welcoming. The ambiance was cozy yet elegant & perfect.
The flavours were authentic, bold, & beautifully balanced-every dish felt like a celebration of Indian culture & tradition.
We tried the Chicken Momos, Chicken Manchurian, Seekh kebab, Tandoori chicken was OG, butter chicken, biryani & garlic naan & each one was outstanding. The spices were just right & the food was fresh, flavourful & cooked to perfection. The portion sizes were generous & everything was served hot & promptly.
If you're craving delicious, authentic Indian food, this is the place to go. Highly recommended! We will go again definitely.
Absolutely exquisite!
Masala Art delivers an outstanding Indian dining experience. The butter chicken is rich & flavorful, the garlic naan is simply divine, & the quality of the chicken is top-notch. We asked for our dishes to be mild, & they respected that perfectly - the flavors were still incredible. The staff is kind & attentive, & our whole family loved every bite. Highly recommended!
Great place. Good quality & quantity. We ordered Mutton curry, Chicken Tikka, Chicken fried rice & some starters. Good taste.
No hello? I felt I was annoying them. If they don't speak the language that's fine but acknowledge…vegetarian dumplings were good.. chicken chilli was really bad … tasted frozen… mushrooms were … ok…. Never received my lassi… no thank you? No come again, no did you enjoy your meal? Won't be back
Amazing food , we had ordered Tandoori & some Roti. Tandoori Chicken was delicious & flavorful.
I go to this place once in a while. Normally, their food is good but on my last visit on Sunday 15th evening, both paneer & chicken dishes were very salty & very spicy especially when I told the person taking the order that I need mild dish because I am not allowed spicy food. Also the chicken dish tasted stale for reasons best known to them. I repeat that this was the first time the food wasn't satisfactory. Maybe they had a new cook in the kitchen
The food was amazing. I had the butter chicken & garlic naan & the naan was fresh & the butter chicken was creamy & tasty. The onion bhaaji is good too. Also I love mr.chauhan's (the owner's) mustache.
Masala Art is being one of our favourites for more than a year already. Food is great quality & amazing flavour. The Owner is really friendly makes you feel welcome every time. We recently celebrated birthday party. Everyone enjoyed the food & ambiance. Our regular plates are: - Chicken Chettinad - Lamb Korma - & some vegetarian like Aloo Gobhi
Great food! The best Indian restaurant We enjoyed the food! We had ordered the Tandoori chicken & chicken seekh kabob as appetizers it was well flavoured & spicy. The flavor & spice of the seekh kabob was very nice along with the chutney that they serve with it.
Food was amazing Butter chicken : 10/10 Rice : 9/10 Popadom : 10/10 Water : 10/10 Would recommend 😀
Masala Art has earned a spot on my top list of Indian cuisines on the island. As someone of Indian background who has dined at numerous restaurants, I can confidently say you'll enjoy delicious, authentic cuisine here. The service is great, the ambiance is pleasant for dining in, & the restaurant is clean. The biryani is a must-try, the tandoor chicken & seekh kebab are packed with flavor, & I especially love their chicken rolls! Overall, you're guaranteed to experience high-quality, authentic food at Masala Art.
Tandoori chicken. Chicken Tikka Masla + Garlic Naan best combo in Montreal.
Great food! The best Indian takeout I've had in this city. Tandoori chicken is well flavoured & cooked along with the kebabs & chicken biryani. Authentic & very satisfying. Will go again soon!
