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.

We went tonight, the food was Amazing !!!! The hostess was very attentive & friendly. Definitely I recommend it 100% Best Indian food much better than Indian Rose at Griffintown
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.
Their tandoori chicken is really good & naan is very fresh. The only dish I didn't like a lot was Manchurian.. but other than that I highly recommend this place..
Heard of this place from word of mouth & thoroughly enjoyed the food! We had ordered the Delhi platter, chicken tikka & chicken seekh kabob as appetizers for 5 individuals & it was plenty. The flavor & spice of the seekh kabob was very nice along with the chutney that they serve with it. The butter chicken & lamb vindaloo were great as well. The lamb vindaloo was unique & unlike any other lamb vindaloo we've had. It was a bit sweet for our liking so would definitely recommend requesting it to be spicy next time. Overall, loved the experience & will be back soon!
Was my second time there. First time for a friend's bday dine in. This time take out. Had Butter Chicken, Aloo Gobi, Chicken 65, Saag Paneer, Samosas... etc. The food is delicious...everything was so tasty. Great service. Highly recommended!
One of the best Indian Restraunt in Town. We never think about going at other place whenever we wish to eat out. Whatever your eat there I mean their whole Menu is very tasteful, plus their service & hospitality. I recommend everyone to try their food. They have Special Breakfast menu for weekends as well.
Went for the first time with my family last night & I was pleasantly surprised. Great restaurant with amazing Indian flavourful dishes. We got Delhi Chaat platter, lamb briyani, chicken tawa, lamb chops & fish curry. Their garlic naan is to die for! Warm & cozy atmosphere. The owner was very welcoming & friendly. I highly recommend to try this restaurant.

I never leave reviews but I just have to rave about this place. We have been ordering takeout regularly from Masala Art for the last few years - large orders - & we have never - NOT ONCE - had a mistake in our order. How is that even possible statistically Also the food - authentic, flavorful, plentiful - & the service we get is always welcoming & kind. This place is a West Island gem. Highly recommend.
Recently dined at this Indian restaurant & was pleasantly surprised by the variety on the menu, including some original dishes that you don't typically see at other places. The momos were particularly impressive & come highly recommended - a real highlight of our meal. There's also a great selection of sharing plates, which is perfect for groups wanting to sample a broad array of flavors. While it's not a high-end dining establishment, the quality of the food & the overall experience were very good. It's definitely worth checking out for those interested in exploring Indian cuisine in a casual setting.
I should start by saying I came here a few times before but did not stay since the wait was too long but today..... We started with Dehli chat which is Dehli street food & it set the tone for the rest. There were 4 different types of food on the half portion & all very delicious. It was perfect for 2 people. Then we had Masala Art Dalh, an eggplant dish, & Lamb Vindaloo with rice & Naan. I now understand why it is so popular. Everything was done so well that even though the Vindaloo was not as spicy as I normally would like, the taste more than made up for it. We of course ended up with leftovers which means we can enjoy the rest tomorrow. Definitely recommended.

Hands down, the best Indian restaurant in Montreal!! Food quality & food presentation was top notch. Best Momos I have ever had in my life, loved every bite of it. We also order the Tandoori Paneer Tikka & Soya Chaap, it was super yummy. Properly marinated & soft with enough spices. I got a feeling of a fine dine restaurant. In the main course, we ordered Veg Biryani (best I have ever had), Dal Makhni (yummiest), Kofta & Mushroom Jalfarezi (best main course curry) with Lachha Parantha (fresh) & Tandoori Roti. Everyone loved the food as it was rich in flavour & tasty. I highly recommend visiting this restaurant if you're in Montreal area. I would definitely visit again whenever I'll visit Montreal. Owners are very nice & friendly people. The owner is also the main chef of the restaurant. Customer service was 5 stars as well. The restaurant was clean & hygienic. I saw pictures of the owner in the restaurant & he was a chef in Taj Palace, New Delhi & at some Indian restaurant in Russia. We all were truly impressed by the quality & presentation of food. Thank you for the great food & letting us sit & order food during your break. We especially came from Toronto to visit our friends in Montreal & visiting your restaurant was the key moment of our trip.
Extraordinaire, vraiment succulent. Tout est très bon, le chef cuisiner est top. Recommande fortement, a tous ceux & celles qui aiment la nourriture indienne. Les saveurs, couleurs, ambiance conviviale. Je note 5 étoiles
