Went for dinner with 3 friends on a Friday night - was not busy at all.
Atmosphere: dim lighting, low music so you can talk, comfortable & nice decor. Bathroom left a lot to be desired... very dark, sketchy screwdriver taped to the light switch, only one.
Food was disappointing unfortunately. The reason the resto gets 3 stars is because the onion bhaji are phenomenal, & baigan bartha also very good. Everything else was either too sweet or too dry. The lamb korma & butter chicken were SO sweet. Pakora, biryani rice, paneer tikka - all were dry & not the best.
Service is really the hardest part for this establishment. There were maybe 3 or 4 tables in the whole restaurant & it was incredibly slow service. Pleasant but literally absent. would go 15-20minutes stretches without ever seeing someone who works there coming through the floor.
Great visit again here, honestly love it every time. The vibe is really hip, with a fun British Indian music Playlist, & 90s hip hop. Service was a bit slow at times & they seemed confused, but all orders came out & bills were accurate. Food: to die for. Still the best butter chicken I've had. The Onion Bahji was scrumptious, & the Chana samosa. The chicken wings are classic & worth it. Value was good too, the most expensive is the drinks. But boy they are good. It's too bad it's not more busy, we did not need a reservation on Saturday night even for 6 people. Hoping they stick around because this is really worth it.
Food was excellent. Our waiter Harry was pretty slow since he was on his phone a lot. Music was a bit radio with throw backs which didn't fit. Overall would come back.
Good was pretty good, I had a saag & hoped it would taste like a palak which I've had before but it was not as creamy as I thought it would be but still good! They played great music & service was really nice !

Discovered "Rasoi" accidentally, & it turned out to be an absolute gem. The entire experience at Rasoi, from the ambiance to the food, decor, & music, was nothing short of amazing. The authenticity & the perfect balance of spiciness in Soya Malai Chaap, Dal Tadka, Cucumber Raita, & Gulab Jamun left a lasting impression on my taste buds.
However, what truly elevated our dining experience was the exceptional service provided by Hardik, the host at Rasoi. His recommendations were spot on, & his attentiveness made us feel truly valued as guests. Hardik is undoubtedly one of the best hosts I've had the pleasure of encountering in Montreal, & he is an invaluable asset to the restaurant.
Furthermore, Rasoi offers a private space for those special occasions & private parties, adding to its versatility. Even the restroom's decor reflects the attention to detail & commitment to creating a memorable atmosphere throughout the restaurant.
In summary, Rasoi is a hidden culinary gem in Montreal, & Hardik's exemplary service only enhances its allure. I highly recommend Rasoi for an authentic Indian dining experience & commend Hardik for his exceptional hospitality. This restaurant truly deserves a visit for a delightful & memorable experience.
We were not convinced by this fusion food restaurant. We found it to be an overrated, hyped place where portions are small & overpriced, the menu is more interesting than the taste & the music is too loud. It felt more like a bar-club then an Indian restaurant. Just not what we were after.
