I've had take outs from this restaurant numerous times & each time the food has consistently hit the spot! The portions are also decent size.
The staff here is also quite friendly. They are quick to answer the phone & food is always ready at their promised time. I'll definitely go back each time I'm in town.

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
I really enjoyed Massage Art. I went there for the first time with my wife & my mother-in-law, & the experience was genuinely pleasant from start to finish.
I ordered the Lamb Vindaloo & asked for it extremely spicy🌶, meaning the hottest level they could do. They took that request seriously, & it was exactly to my taste: intensely spicy, full of bold flavors, & still well-balanced rather than just'hot for the sake of heat.' If you are someone who likes real spice, this is a great place to try it.
Overall, after that first day I started coming regularly, & it has become one of my go-to spots when I want good Indian food & real heat. Highly recommended, especially if you like strong flavors & very spicy dishes.
This is the second time we had ordered food from Masala art...& each time there has been some screw up or the other...
Today their delivery boy delivered half the order & instead of admitting their inability, they were arguing with us & we're suggesting that we should call the delivery boy... 😏😏😏
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.

The price does not justify the quantity per platter that we received, therefore 3 stars, however the food is very tasty.

Update:
We receive good quantity of food in a box when we order after my first review. I live how they take every feedback into consideration & make your following experiences better. Food is excellent. My best wishes are with this restaurant. They are by far the best Indian restaurant in West Island.
La nourriture est vraiment excellente! Les portions sont gigantesques & les prix raisonnables! Beaucoup de saveurs 🩷 Restaurant chaleureux! Le personnel est très gentil & attentionné, bravo 👏! Absolument rien à dire. Cheers 🥂 à toute l'équipe.
