The food was delicious. It's the best butter chicken i've had. I eat a lot in toronto & in Jean talon but this is by far the best. Anmol was our host & she was great too very kind & friendly.
Best Punjabi food you can get in Montréal. Amazing hospitality by Anmoldeep. All other staff members were welcoming & accomodating with the kids as well. Must visit. Will definitely come back again & again & recommend everyone. Amritsari Kulcha & Chai were the best 👌
