Patrons encounter a robust menu featuring clay oven delicacies alongside wok-fired specialties that highlight bold flavors and fresh ingredients. The kitchen emphasizes high-heat preparation methods, resulting in aromatic curries and savory noodle dishes that define its unique grill-based profile.

Review Summary

Oorja is widely recognized as a standout destination for Indo Chinese fusion cuisine in Montreal, frequently praised for its innovative menu, flavorful dishes like the majestic chicken, and exceptionally well-crafted, creative cocktails. Most guests appreciate the cozy, lively, and welcoming atmosphere, which is often enhanced by live music and professional, friendly service. While the majority of visitors have stellar experiences, opinions on the service and portion sizes are somewhat mixed. Some patrons find the portions to be on the smaller side for the price, and others have encountered occasional inconsistencies with service speed and order accuracy during busy periods. Despite these isolated critiques, the consensus remains that the restaurant is a hidden gem that delivers a unique and highly enjoyable dining experience worth returning to.

A 5 for the expertly crafted cocktails. WoW! All were exceedingly delicious. Being an Indian/Asian fusion I'm undecided whether I like this combination. The lamb spring rolls were better, with two dipping sauces that were excellent. The duck wings while good were too sweet overall. Pork Braisé was plentiful yet again too sweet. Chicken & also Veg Manchurian's were ok. Opt for the fried rice, which did have delicious smoky flavor. Wait staff was very nice, however needs a bit more training. (Don't reach in front of a guest to deliver food to another. Ask if the meal is finished before removing sauce plates.) Would definitely return & enjoy cocktails & an appetizer or two.

Delicious food, quality was good. Paneer chilli had that spicy tangy taste loved it. Veg Manchurian was spicy & tasty. But not satisfied with the quantity for the amount we pay. Especially the appetizer just had five small fried momos, also would appreciate more fried rice & noddles.
Service was good.
