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!
I have been a repeating customer to Masala Art since they have opened. It has quickly become my favorite Indian restaurant in Montreal, & in my top restaurants of the West Island. I even bring my family & friends who visit from out of town!
The food is absolutely delicious & flavourful. I crave it all the time & have never been disappointed. The portions are generous & the service is great!
I would also recommend trying their brunch menu on weekends!

I really loved this place! The chilli momos & Delhi chaat platter are a must-try - they're so delicious! The atmosphere is cozy & welcoming, making it feel like home. Definitely a great spot to satisfy your Indian food cravings!
I really missed good Indian food when i came to Montréal, not anymore!! the owners are very welcoming. customer service was top tier & the food was nothing less than an art. Out of the several Items we ordered my favourites were Achari panner tikka, momos & lamb curry.
Freshly cooked, very delicious, the staff are very helpful. There is nothing special about the interior of the restaurant, it is clean & simple. We regularly go there with our friends , in our opinion it should be in top 5 Indian restaurants in Montreal.
GREAT GREAT GREAT It's was our first time at masala art. The food was delicious the portions were generous, the flavors were perfect. It is the best Indian food so far in the area. I highly recommend this restaurant. One small thing would be to bring inside the style of the beautiful restaurant logo that we see from the outside of the premises.
The Delhi Chaat platter was a perfect mix of tangy,sweet & spicy flavors .The Naan was soft & it very well complemented with the Malai Kofta & Paneer Tikka Masala. Overall this place offers the best Indian cuisine with real authentic flavors!!
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.

Delicious Indian Flavors & the Best Kulfi! I recently dined at Masala Art DOLLARD-DES-ORMEAUX, & it was a wonderful experience from start to finish. The ambiance was warm & welcoming, with a vibrant yet cozy feel. The menu offers a wide range of authentic Indian dishes, each more flavorful than the next. We ordered cholle bhature, chaat platter, idli sambar & dosa . They all tatsed simply awesome. But the highlight of the meal was definitely the dessert-kulfi! Their kulfi is simply divine! Creamy, rich, & bursting with kesar pista flavor, it was the perfect way to end the meal. Whether you're a fan of traditional flavors like pistachio or mango, or looking to try something new, the kulfi here is a must-try. Overall, Masala Art delivers an authentic & satisfying Indian dining experience. Highly recommended, especially for indian food lover.
Masala art has amazing food to offer. I love the fact they serve the food & naans hot. Little pricey but great taste. This is our go to restaurant for Indian food & family gatherings.
