One of the best places for Pakora & Samosa... Spicy as I liked. We were in a hurry, but the staff managed to prepare our order within 5-10 minutes. I will recommend all my friends to visit this restaurant. Thanks.
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
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.

Thanks team Mumbai Masala!! The food was AMAZING! Special mention from my uncle for the Special Chicken Biryani. It was definitely a topic of discussion till the next day in our home. Thank you for an incredible evening once again.
We ordered 14 butter chicken specials & 3 chicken briyani to share with their fresh tandoori garlic nan bread, everything was perfect & there was a good dessert selection on the menu at the end.
This is our go-to spot for group dinners. We usually order a mix of vegetarian & non-veg items, & everything from the dal makhani to the chicken curry-feels fresh & home style. You never feel heavy after eating here.
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!
Seems perhaps from personal observation 90% of the negative reviews seem to be from delivery drivers complaining because of not having any parking on this busy street, but fresh food takes time to be prepared properly & I think all the customers understand this. I would highly request for them to be waiting outside the establishment not inside nonetheless.
