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.
We were 4 people & had Shahi Paneer with Dal Makhni, fresh Naan, Lacha Paratha, Tandoori Roti & Mango Lassi - & I was so surprised that the total was only $47! The food tasted freshly made, especially the naan & tandoori roti which were perfectly soft & fresh, not like the frozen ones you find in some other places just for profit. The staff was very kind, hardworking & welcoming.
Overall, I think this restaurant truly deserves 5 stars for delicious food, fair prices & warm service. Highly recommended!
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
We discovered this gem late into our trip & were blown away! The tandoori roti, naan, chicken jalfrezi, chicken dopyaza, chilli chicken & tandoori leg were all bursting with authentic flavour. The service was excellent, portions were generous, & the pricing was incredibly reasonable for the quality.
Highly recommended if you're in Montreal - don't miss out on this place!
Edit (second time): The lentil soup, navaratan curry, dal makhani, tarka dal, pulao rice are out of this world!!
First time: You can tell the food is made with love & lots of effort but some dishes are very rich (buttery, creamy, oily) so you can only eat a little at a time. All the rices are made well & flavourful. Good naan too.
Great place! This isn't my first time here, & as always, the experience is excellent. The restaurant is clean & offers a calm & pleasant atmosphere (with music). The servers are kind, professional, & take the time to properly attend to customers, which is greatly appreciated. As for the food, the dishes are simply delicious! I particularly enjoyed the Rogan Josh, perfectly spiced, as well as the Chicken Dopyaza, tender & flavorful. The naans were excellent, & the rice pairs perfectly with each dish. A place I highly recommend!

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!
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!
Absolutely delicious! I'm picky when it comes to Indian food, but this place nailed it. The biryani was fragrant & flavorful, & the garlic naan was soft & warm. So glad I found this place!
Wonderful experience! The food was absolutely perfect, especially the paneer butter masala & garlic naan. The atmosphere is warm & welcoming, & the staff makes you feel at home. Can't wait to come back!"
If you love Indian food, you'll love this restaurant! The dal makhani was creamy & flavorful, & the naan was perfect. The staff was friendly, & the restaurant has a really warm & cozy atmosphere.
I visited this place last month & had delicious food. We also tried the chana masala & naan...the best naan I've ever had! Highly suggest this Indian restaurant

Elegant yet relaxed setting, with excellent service, food, & drinks! We had a combination of Butter Chicken, Tandori Platter, Briyani & Naan breads. & all were deliciously prepared & presented. & the staff were very courteous & helpful.
Butter chicken with the rice & garlic naan is one of the best meals ive ever had, sooo good. Definitely really amazing food here; service is pretty slow sometimes, seems understaffed, but I put up with it because the butter chicken is to die fo
The negative reviews are from people who seem to have a personal vendetta against the restaurant. The food is actually very good & the employees are nice. We had butter chicken, mango chicken, & paneer madras with rice & warm garlic naan. Generous portions too.
We ordered kadai chicken, kadi pakora, raita, dahi bhalla, chaat papdi, naans, steamed rice, gulabjamun & Kheer. The food was well cooked & flavorful. But the delivery was late by 1 1/2 hrs. Very unprofessional as no one was picking up the call to let us know the cause of late delivery. Otherwise the food was delicious.
