Info & Location
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.

Expérience décevante, cocktail long a recevoir reçu plus de 10-15 minutes après les 2 entrées, goût répétitif, nous avons commandé au total 5 plats (2 entrée & 3 plats (pour 2 pers)) & 3 semblait avoir la même base de sauce très relevée, service long pour un mercredi & resto à moitié plein, autre déception nous avons pris du vins au verre sans demander le prix, (il n’y a pas de carte des vins), le vin proposé était à 29,50$ le verre qui n’était pas généreux, donc pour 4 verres 118$… Points positifs, belle ambiance, décor apaisant. Bref, facture de 274$.View more
via LibroL'ambiance est bonne mais les plats principaux étaient beaucoup trop épicés & même si nous adorons la cuisine épicée, aucune des 5 personnes n'a réussi à manger son plat avec plaisir. Nous avions pourtant dit au serveur de faire attention aux épices mais le cuisinier ne semble pas avoir reçu le message. je ne pense pas que nous y retournerons
via LibroVery good food. Would be good if they had a few more main options that were not so spicy. & a written wine list would be helpful.
via LibroAmazing food. The starters (Lamb spring rolls, Fried Momos, Manchow Soup) were really well made, especially the dips & the chutneys. Plating was superb. Tried the Chicken Manchurian with fried rice. The gravy was so close to indo chinese but the chicken was not as succulent & tender. Waiting staff were quick & delight to interact with. Everything was served really fast. Restaurant was a bit smaller & seating was not very comfortable as the tables are laid out very close to each other. Lighting was a little dim so could not read the menu. But overall a very nice ambience & is on the rustic side & the place was packed with people.

La nourriture est bonne. Par contre, le service est très lent, le serveur ne parlait qu’anglais alors que nous sommes à Montréal… Local très bruyant. Pas certaine d’y retourner.View more

Sauces très sucrées. Le plat de porc étaient bon mais trempait dans le gras.
& surtout très surpris que sur les 2 terminaux de paiement, on nous présente un pourboire de 18, 20 & 22% & que sur les 2 terminaux si on voulait changer cela le bouton ne fonctionnait pas. Le service était bien mais valait 15%.
via LibroTout était parfait. Le seul bémol, un verre de vin à presque 20$, faut pas exagérer.
via LibroBelle découverte! Besu restaurant, grandeur parfaite avec une décoration que j'ai adorée! Les grosses lampes suspendues, les murs en ciment, le mélange de matériau, tout y est!! Bonne ambiance & service discret & attentionné!! Les rouleaux à l'agneau étaient très bons, meilleurs que les dumplings au poulet dont la texture était un peu trop pâteuse! Portion généreuse pour le plat principal, porc braisé correct, sans plus! J'aurais aimé plus d'explications au niveau des vins puisqu'il n'y a pas de carte des vins! Bonne idée le concept de dégustation avant de choisir le vin! Belle surprise pour ce quartier!

The food is really very close to the Indo-Chinese Hakka cuisine. But I can imagine it might be a little too spicy for some people. So just ask before you order. Ordered one cocktail & it was well made. Would love to see cauliflower lollipop for vegetarians.View more
via LibroThe restaurant staff & food were all excellent. My only comment is that the place is quite noisy due to the high ceilings & proximity of the tabels. We will definately go back for more!

Service was perfection. Food was..... the most exciting meal of my year! Was an circus of flavours in my mouth. Amazing!
My only negative comment is that they brought my dumplings & manchurian chicken at the same time. Would have preferred one at a time. Otherwise it was the perfect evening! Bravo guys!

We really enjoyed out evening!
Only remark, if cocktail prices were a bit less steep, we would've ordered a second round. Also, some dishes portions were on the tiny side. Ex: mussels/rice, pork. Overall excellent!
via LibroI truly enjoyed my experience at the restaurant, the service was exceptional, the cocktails were amazing & the food was delicious. If I had to be picky my only "complaint would be the chicken meatballs in the chicken Manchurian were a bit more chewy than I would had preferred. When I think meatball I expect something softer in texture. But they were still delicious

Good luck to the second Hakka restaurant to open in Montreal, the bar couldn’t be higher. Top service, amazing drinks, & authentic Hakka. Already looking forward to our next visit.View more

Saw a few posts about how this is the first Indo-Chinese restaurant in Montreal. As someone who grew up eating hakka chinese every other week, Oorja was immediately added to my list of places to try. It did not disappoint. The service, ambience, drinks, food, literally every single thing was absolutely phenomenal & so authentic. Will be going back often.View more
