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.

I set my expections too high for this place. The food was good but not great. Although very affordable, I could find better meals at affordable prices elsewhere.

Best affordable & tasty Indian snacks & desserts. The place is cozy but not the best dine in, better to take out.

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.
