Oorja Saint-Henri, Montreal: Menu, Reviews & Reservations (2026)
IndianChineseGrillBrunchResto-Bar
Through Oorja, we aim to create a restaurant inspired by the flavors of Hakka, primarily Indo Chinese cuisine, where the emphasis is placed on fresh ingredients and great service. We take pride in the food that we create, and it is our ambition to bring this vibrant and culturally rich cuisine to Montreal. As both a restaurant and a cocktail bar, our objective is to shape a fun and dynamic environment centered around a unique culinary experience. Our team will create dishes and cocktails made from quality seasonal ingredients sourced from local producers. Indo Chinese cuisine is surprisingly absent from Montreal, and we believe that its vibrance and imaginativeness will be very well received.

Review Summary

Oorja is widely praised for its Indo-Chinese fusion tapas, inventive cocktails, and a warm, stylish vibe that makes it a popular neighborhood spot. The flavors are often described as bold and delicious, with standout items like ghee garlic shrimp, momo dumplings, and spicy chicken dishes, though some guests note the spice can be very strong and portions can feel small for the price. Service is a mixed bag across visits, ranging from friendly, attentive moments to slower service with missed requests and longer gaps between courses. Overall, the restaurant is celebrated for its innovative menu and welcoming atmosphere, with guests eager to return to try more dishes and cocktails.

Had high hopes from this place, unfortunately, not impressed. The portion of the noodles for the 3 main courses we ordered fluctuated with each dish. Noodles were tasty though. The veg manchurian did not meet my expectations, the veggies didn’t have any texture. The chili momos were decent. Only the chicken manchurian had the perfect gravy to noodles ratio & was the best out of what we ordered.
I see this place is really popular, but the tables are too close together & it can feel over crowded. Not a family restaurant for sure.
We arrived 45 mins before our reservation & thankfully were seated promptly but the service definitely needs improvement.

We were a group of 7. We appreciated the good & welcoming service. The waitress made sure we had everything we needed. The drinks were good. To make it more Asian style I would add chopsticks to the table :) The lamb roll, the mussels curry, the chicken & noodles miam ! Prices are very fai

Overall, Oorja was a good place for a great cocktail & shareable entrees. The place was nicely designed, & the atmosphere was good to have a nice chat with friends. The cocktails were all delicious & definitely different. We had a few entrees to share, & my favorites were the duck wings & lamb spring rolls. I would recommend them for sure!! The main dishes were a little more disappointing. My braised pork was a little tough on some bites, & the white rice was either mushy & not cooked on some parts. The paneer chili was quite tasty & an original take on sweet chili sauce dish. The chicken chili was very similar to what you would get in a Chinese restaurant but with a higher price tag. In the end, I would recommend that if you are looking for good cocktails & tasty entrees.

Very nice decor. My server was very helpful & patient with my gluten free requests. Food was good. Salad was fresh. Chili chicken has just the right amount of heat.
