Oorja propose une fusion culinaire distincte qui marie les épices indiennes traditionnelles aux techniques de cuisson chinoises dynamiques. Les clients découvrent un menu robuste comprenant des spécialités cuites au four en terre cuite aux côtés de plats sautés au wok qui mettent en valeur des saveurs audacieuses et des ingrédients frais. La cuisine privilégie des méthodes de préparation à haute température, produisant des currys aromatiques et des plats de nouilles savoureux qui définissent son profil unique axé sur le grill. Chaque assiette maintient un équilibre entre le piquant des préparations tandoori classiques et le profil umami inhérent aux sautés asiatiques régionaux. Cet établissement sert de carrefour fonctionnel pour ceux qui recherchent des profils gustatifs variés dans un cadre singulier. L'assaisonnement constant et les mélanges d'épices authentiques constituent l'objectif principal, garantissant que chaque plat respecte des normes de préparation précises.
Oorja est largement reconnu comme une destination incontournable pour la cuisine fusion indo-chinoise à Montréal, souvent salué pour son menu innovant, ses plats savoureux comme le poulet majestic et ses cocktails créatifs parfaitement équilibrés. La plupart des clients apprécient l'ambiance chaleureuse, animée et accueillante, souvent agrémentée de musique live et d'un service professionnel et sympathique. Bien que la majorité des visiteurs vivent des expériences exceptionnelles, les avis sur le service et la taille des portions sont quelque peu mitigés. Certains clients trouvent les portions un peu petites par rapport au prix, et d'autres ont rencontré des incohérences occasionnelles dans la rapidité du service et la précision des commandes lors des périodes de forte affluence. Malgré ces critiques isolées, le consensus demeure que le restaurant est une perle rare qui offre une expérience culinaire unique et très agréable à laquelle il vaut la peine de revenir.
We had a reservation at 7:30 p.m. on a Friday, but they were already missing four menu items & two cocktails. When we ordered, they informed us that the fried shrimp was no longer available, even though it seemed like all the food was frozen, like the chewy calamari. The green beans tasted like gasoline or propane. The bathroom felt like an old nightclub at 3 a.m., with a slippery floor & missing toilet seats, right next to the kitchen. Everything felt dirty. We wouldn't recommend this place. The place was loud due to the large industrial fan, as there was no air conditioning, & it felt quite hot inside.
Such a great restaurant! It's always tricky pleasing elderly parents when you're trying to get them to try something new, but to my surprise they LOVED everything that we ordered: Money bag, Cauliflower bites (REALLY GOOD), Lillipop Chicken ( CRISPY, JUICY & FLAVOURFUL), Minced lamb spring rolls, Chinese bhel, Chilli paneer, Veg manchurian, Chilli chicken, Majestic chicken, Fried rice
& Hakka noodles.
The deep fried oyster mushrooms were absolutely incredible, the batter was crunchy & fresh, you could tell it wasn't sitting under a heat lamp. Fantastic custom cocktails made be friendly, attentive staff.

We visited Oorja on May 17th for dinner. We were visiting Montreal & went there after reading the reviews online. The food was such a disappointment. It was no where close to Indo-Chinese or Hakka.
The Gobi bites were very salty & oily. The sides portion was way too less & we were told that mains are shareable so we ordered only a few mains to share & very highly disappointed. The veg manchurian was undercooked & the side fried rice with it was too oily. The only dish that was okay was Majestic chicken but it had regional Indian flavours rather than being Hakka. The food took a long time to arrive. Overall not a good experience.
We really enjoyed the food there! The ghee garlic shrimp & fried oyster mushrooms were sooo good. We also had the lamb with beans, which was really delicious too. I wanted to try their chicken momos, but unfortunately they didn't have it. We'll definitely go back to try more. Oh, & the red bean ice cream sandwiches are a must-try!
We chose this place after seeing a lot of glowing reviews on social media & decided to celebrate a birthday here. Despite the extremely cold weather & the restaurant being packed, we were seated within 10 minutes. The staff was polite, helpful, & welcoming - no complaints there.
The ambience & vibe are definitely a highlight & set the right expectations for a great dining experience. Unfortunately, that's where the positives ended for us.
We ordered Chicken Lollipop & squid as appetizers, followed by fried rice, chilli chicken, & majestic chicken for the main course. The portion sizes were shockingly small & completely unexpected. The Chicken Lollipop had just four very small pieces, which felt unreasonable for the price being charged.
This seems to be a common misconception with fine-dining restaurants - smaller portions do not automatically mean premium dining. When customers are paying higher prices, a fair & satisfying portion should still be part of the experience.
Overall, while the service & ambience were good, the food portions left us disappointed & took away from what should have been a special occasion.
Visiting Montreal & a colleague brought me here . Great cocktails & I had the super spicy fish Apollo & fried rice ...best meal I've had in a while. Highly recommend
Place is nice & cozy , food flavour is amazing 10/10 . We had the chilli chicken , chicken momo, & two kinds of fried rice . Everything was delicious BUT the portions are VERY small . You may have to order doubles if you're super hungry .
