Reviews portray Mumbai Masala as a reliable late-hour option offering authentic Indian cuisine at reasonable prices with generous portions, highlighting dishes like dal makhani, paneer, naan, lachha paratha, butter chicken, and biryani. The dining experience is described as quick and consistent, with a warm, welcoming vibe and good value whether dining in or ordering delivery. While the majority praise the flavors and freshness, some note that the butter chicken could be improved and that service can be slower on weekends. The overall impression is of a beloved Montreal staple for comforting, home-style Indian meals, especially for dal makhani, parathas, tandoori items, and a range of vegetarian and non-vegetarian options.
Ordered online late-night Indian food to our hotel in Montreal & it was amazing 🤩 food was super tasty + they sent green chilies, chutney & chocolates for free 🥰 such a sweet gesture. Highly recommend!
All amazing, so glad I found this place. Finally, I had a full Indian meal after days. Special mention to their matar paneer & garlic naan. Best place to eat Indian food
It is the best Indian food restaurant here. We felt a home-like taste. Their Chicken Biryani was unbelievably good. Kheer is also a must-try-perfectly cooked & bursting with flavors.

On of the best, if not THE best Indian restaurant in Montreal. Everything we ordered was great. The vegetable biryanis was quite flavorful & there was more than enough that we were able to take home a considerable amount. The Tandori was also quite good. The restaurant was full when we were there but the food was served promptly & quite warm. Service was excellent. This will be our'Go To' place for Indian food when we're downtown in Montreal.
Mumbai Masala receives accolades for its Indian fusion cuisine, with guests consistently lauding the flavorsome & inventive dishes. The service garners praise for its attentiveness & personal touches that enhance the dining experience.
While some patrons find the pricing steep & the ambiance darker than preferred, the warm & welcoming atmosphere overall contributes to its charm. The restaurant's location on St Laurent Blvd stands out, offering a spacious setting that diners find superior to a lot of places.
Great small & cozy Indian restaurant in downtown. The service was helpful & attentive. The menu was large & interesting ( options as well as traditional Indian from a variety of different regional options). Everything we ordered was exceptional. We especially enjoyed the tandoori chicken (the best I've had) & an Indian onion rings plate (I don't recall the name). The garlic naan was also very tasty. pH

Absolutely fantastic experience! The flavors are authentic, & each dish is cooked to perfection. A must-visit for anyone craving real Indian cuisine. Highly recommend the butter chicken & naan - simply delicious!
Not sure why there are so many bad ratings. Over the past few months, I've repeatedly ordered the briyani & chicken curry, sometimes by ubereats & sometimes in person pick up. For me, this place does it best. Best Indian food in Montreal. They even leave little chocolates with the package. Plus they stay open well into the night. Ten stars, I don't go to any of the larger, more famous restaurants. This place got me
Been close to a decade since I first tried this place since opening, I never had left a review until now since my first visit & I wanted to share it on Google. We visit this place at least once a month if not few a times with our family & friends (other than lockdown year) from out of town. A proper authentic gourmet quality Indian food restaurant. All the food is freshly made which can take sometime especially during busy times. Over these years since being introduced to Mumbai Masala we've tried other places to compare, in different cities & countries. We also noticed over the years some menu changed here, I really miss the Bhengan Bertha & Bindi Masala but the Dhaba Style Dal-Fry & Paneer Kai Bahar is my replacement & amazing. The point of this update a decade later is after over the years trying different Indian places hands down this place is our benchmark! Each time we return & I take my first bite, I am instantly transported back to the wonderful memories & feelings upon tasting the food here like the first time. I am reminded why they are our benchmark for their ingredient quality, taste, prep, portion, their sauces & why we must continue to return to enjoy such great food at reasonable prices by this Mumbai Masala owner & the team. I really want as many people to experience it too!
Beautiful place with fantastic Indian cuisine. The highlight of their menu was the butter garlic naan. Freshly made & delicious. We will definitely be back & highly recommend!
