A long-standing institution that continues to welcome & serve its community with its flavorful, affordable & nutritious vegetarian dishes
The aroma of hundreds of fresh samosas fill the airs of dining room & a window display covered in desserts greet you once stepped through the doors of the restaurant. The food is unpretentious & embodies all that is comfort.
Even after ten years, the food remains just as good & heartwarming as the first time I remember having the pleasure to eat it. The palak paneer is deliciously aromatic & earthy. The baingan bharta is lightly spiced & deeply sweet from the slow-cooked onions. The chapati is crispy on the outside, & wonderfully fluffy & chewy on the inside.
Regardless of what you order, I assure you will be well taken care of. Just be mindful that Pushap accepts cash only.View more

When it comes to vegetarian Indian pushap is the place to go to. I've been going to since it open , same owner same & 90s place with somewhat of an upgrade. But the food is alway good. One of the best places in Montreal to get samosas & sweets still.View more

Loved the samosa. The food was good for what it was. A little too spicy on an empty stomach even though I have high spice tolerance. I would prefer more flavour especially if it's vegetarian.View more

Bless Pushap! They're decades-long proof that you can serve decent & delicious home style vegetarian food without charging massive markup. Their waitstaff is young & rotates a lot, so if you eat in, so expect the same service you'd get eating in at a bakery, & you'll be fine. Terrific staff & food, love you Pushap!View more

I've been eating here for a couple of years now, not once have I been disappointed! A dream for vegans & vegetarians!! The samosas & chickpeas with rice are my all-time fav. The atmosphere is comfortable & cozy. It might take a couple minutes for your table to be served expectedly..Servers are nice & welcoming. I would definitely recommend 🤗View more

For over 30 year, the Mohan family has been proudly running this vegetarian restaurant / diner style watering hole to perfection. When I was introduced to this restaurant some years back I recall my reaction as "ugh, vegetarian" but I will try anything once. Well, almost two decades later I am still a loyal patron of this fantastic & authentic Indian vegetarian restaurant, where people from all walks of life come to sit & enjoy affordable & delicious food from India. The sole issue with this local has nothing to do with the restaurant, it is with the area it is located in. At one time one could find parking if you drove around long enough, since the redevelopment in the area, both government & developers recreated the streets & such so that there is almost no parking in front nor close by - free or paid. But let me tell you this, it is worth the time & energy to find parking & walk to eat at this restaurant as you will be delighted beyond expectation. Food: fresh, great quality ingredients, beautifully plated in authentic Selection: A wide array of dishes that are sure to please your taste buds including fantastic samosas & onion baji starters as well as Raita & Bathra a fried puffed white pita/bread to die for. Atmosphere: Think of it as an Indian Diner, not a fancy restaurant & the atmosphere is just fine & cozy - not first date cozy (for some), but second date & so forth. The place is kept clean & the washroom as well. Service: As mentioned, this is a family restaurant & their pricing is value based - short for not ripping people off - so, during rush hours such as lunch time, they do get busy & may not have enough people at front of house to satisfy your urgent needs - but be patient, these are beautiful people & they are doing their best to serve their customers as if you were in their own home. So please, if you are in an urgent rush advise the server or front counter in advance & state how much time you have so they can evaluate if they can meet your time line so you enjoy your experience. Pricing: As mentioned, this place is all about providing real value. Their competitive advantage & why people are loyal boils down to great quality, fantastic taste, good portions, & excellent pricing. You are paying for the food not the fancy location, decor, etc. Meal suggestions: Typically most people like to order the meal of the day as it is not only affordable, but it takes the decision making off the list of things to do & lets the chef serve you what is fresh & awesome. It typically comes with a full plate of food including the bread etc. Also indulge in the Dal soup, it is chick pea based & kind of the Indian version of a French Pea soup - without the chunks of smoked ham (lol). If you are a fan of butter chicken, try the SHAHI PANEER. I have also visited the west Island location which is also delicious & does have parking - but it is far to travel & by the time you get there you would have found parking locally... unless you were heading to the west island or in that area. Their local is 4777 Des Sources in Pierrefonds & they have their own website as well.View more

Great Indian restaurant. Authentic & NO FRILLS. Menu is filled with options for vegetarians & meat eaters alike. Chana masala, red bean curry, potato curry were all delicious. The samosa was delicious as well. They served us bottled water as waters. CASH ONLY ESTABLISHMENT. they are accommodating to tourists & accepted USD & gave me change in CAD. The service is as good as authentic places can get. No parking lot. Has to park at nearby street. Don't expect 5 star service, but expect 5 star food with great cheap prices.View more

If you love simple & delicious pure vegetarian food. This is the place to go. I don't even know how many time I've been to this restaurant in the last 5 years. We drive from Ottawa to Montreal sometimes just to have a simple meal at this restaurant. They have a very simple menu which is great. The food is really good. As simple as it can get in a restaurant. It's always fresh. Very simple & with right amount of spices. Their samosas are good too but I really love their thali options. Some people may not find the ambiance that great but I wouldn't complain about it. Finding a parking is a pain in that area though.View more

Amazing Indian vegetarian delights. Their curries, dals, aloo Gobi, Channa masala with rice & naan is so flavourful, glorious & delicious. Usually I get some vegetable pakora & samosas to go. All their Indian sweets- desserts are sweet & tasty also. My fave are the coconut dusted gulab Jamun, barfi & Kalakand. A simple establishment. They take cash only. If Indian spices are to your liking you shan't be disappointed.View more

Excellent restaurant if you like indian food. Prices very reasonable & you get enough food, you can even share one tali with someone. Only vegetarian dishes & there is a lot of variatey. I have eaten there & also ordered take out. It's been at least 3 years that i know the place & he prices have increased a bit since then but it's the normal now. I would say that the only problem is the parking.View more
