Best Indian Restaurant in Montreal - A True Royal Rendezvous!
Hands down, Rendez-vous Bistro is the best Indian restaurant I've experienced in Montreal & possibly in all of Canada. The moment I stepped in, I could feel something special about the place. What I didn't expect was that the chef & owner hails from the royal family of Bilaspur, Rajasthan, the very same state where I was born. It was like a beautiful cultural connection unfolding on my plate.
& here's the twist: the server had the same name as me! Shaurya was absolutely phenomenal, guiding me through the menu like a true connoisseur.
I ordered a LOT & loved all of these:
Dahi ke Kebab - unlike any I've had before; crisp outside, melt-in-your-mouth inside.
Laal Maas - fiery, bold, & deeply authentic. This one took me straight back to Rajasthan.
Paneer Lababdar - rich, creamy, & loaded with flavor.
Dal Makhni - slow-cooked perfection. Easily one of the best I've tasted.
Methi Chicken - aromatic & unique, with a lovely hint of bitterness from the fenugreek.
& to end on a sweet high - the Kesar Pista Kulfi! Served with such elegance & bursting with rich saffron & pistachio flavor. A royal dessert that looked & tasted like luxury.
Every dish had a soul, a story, & a serious amount of flavor. This place doesn't just serve Indian food it redefines it. Montreal, consider yourself lucky to have this gem. & if you're from Rajasthan like me, you'll feel right at home.
Felt Royal 👑 having that royal food!View more

Tried this place last week & was seriously impressed! The Veg Kolhapuri was one of the best paneer dishes I've had - super flavorful & well-spiced. Paired it with garlic naan & loved every bite.
Ended with their paan kulfi, which was creamy & refreshing. Big shout-out to Shaurya for the amazing service. Definitely coming back!View more

Wonderful food & dedicated polite service. They have very different & unique dishes prepared with care & subtlety. I had a paneer dish in a cashew cream sauce with methi that was out of this world!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Rendez-Vous Bistro, & I must say, it was an outstanding experience! If you're a fan of Indian cuisine, this place is a must-visit.
Food
The highlight of my meal was undoubtedly the Paneer Kolhapuri. It was simply out of this world-perfectly spiced & bursting with flavor. The paneer was incredibly fresh, & the sauce had the right amount of heat, making every bite a delight.
Beyond the Paneer Kolhapuri, the rest of the menu offered a variety of traditional Indian dishes that were equally impressive. Each dish was crafted with care, showcasing the rich flavors & aromas that Indian food is known for.
Atmosphere
The ambiance of the bistro is cozy & welcoming, making it a great spot for both casual dining & special occasions. The decor adds a nice touch, enhancing the overall dining experience.
Service
The service was attentive without being intrusive. The staff was knowledgeable about the menu, offering great recommendations that complemented our meal perfectly.
Overall, Rendez-Vous Bistro is a gem for anyone who loves Indian cuisine. With its delicious food, inviting atmosphere, & excellent service, I can't recommend it enough. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!View more

Recently we had visited the restaurant for dinner after hearing & seeing the reviews stating,must visit restaurant in Montreal. we had ordered Butter & Garlic Naan,Paneer Lababdar & Rajasthani Jungli mass.The curries were not that spicy,if you are a person who loves spicy food I would recommend to mention the spice level required.At the end we received complimentary gulab jamoon which was too good,highly recommend to go for it.Overall it was a good visit for dinner.View more

Food: delicious! We tried dahi ke kebab & tandoori paneer as appetizers, both fresh & tender. Mains were dal makhni, achari baingan & nalli rogan josh which were quite good.
Service: felt pretty rushed. Five minutes after we sat down, we were asked if were ready to order. Our appetizers were half way done & another server almost took our plates & then asked if we were done. During the payment, the same server brought us a machine to pay with but no bill. We asked for the bill & he said they don't usually give it, which was very strange. The same server's hygiene level was questionable, his nails were long & filthy! A restaurant is definitely not the place for him. The other servers were very kind… & clean!
Conclusion: I might, just might go back for the food but that one particular server did put us off.View more

We had dinner & lunch here on 2 consecutive days. paneer is soft unlike rest of the restaursnts around montreal. Paneer was very delicious. But then the next day we had non veg thali. Thali had 25 dishes & they allowed us to share. Amazing thali & all dishes were well thought, planned & prepared. Chef really worked hard to prepare it. Pls see photo attached. They can improve upon wine sangria. Food is really nice. One of the best Indian food in montreal. They don't update online about there closing hours. So be carefulView more

We had an amazing experience at Rendez-Vous Indian Bistro! We ordered online through Uber Eats. Their butter chicken & paneer recipe without onion & garlic were absolutely delicious. The flavors were incredible, & the owner went the extra mile to accommodate our dietary preferences by preparing the paneer dish perfectly. As a delightful surprise, they even complimented the meal with rasmalai, which was the cherry on top! The food was so tasty, & the attention to detail made the experience even better. This is hands down the best Indian cuisine restaurant in Montreal. A must-try for all Indian food lovers! Highly recommend!View more

I was on my way back from Quebec, craving Indian food, & boi! I had a delicious lunch!! The garlic naan with Paneer Lababdar is absolutely recommended, along with their Gulab jamuns. Not to forget Parikram (server) was taking superb care of guests around.View more

I am so happy to have found this place. The food is so delicious & the presentation of the dishes is very well done. We were delighted from beginning to end! Can't wait to come here again & try other dishes. My spouse had the Butter Chicken & he kept saying the chicken itself was very good (a lot of places use only chicken breast). I am vegetarian myself so I asked for a recommendation & got the Paneer Methi Chaman, can't emphasize enough how delicious it was!View more

Best Indian restaurant in Montreal, very near to downtown. Best restaurant for Canadians too, who like to try Indian food, as they prepare all the dishes Indian style & also with canadian spice level. My personal favourite is Paneer Lababdar. All their cocktails & mocktails are nice. Friendly staff & pricing is economical.View more

one of the best butter chicken I've ever eaten! the sauce was really excellent. The only thing I liked a little less was the chicken, since I found it very hard to chew (i feel like it's not even chicken, maybe pork? bc it's was extremely hard). The waitress was very polite & kind. The chef even came to see us to ask for our opinion. update: i've tried the paneer lababdar & it's was so good! honestly a must try however it's would be great to lower the music a bit bc it's sometimes difficult to heaView more

I recently dined at Rendez-Vous & had an exceptional experience! I ordered the paneer, garlic naan, & some ice cream for dessert. The paneer was perfectly cooked, flavorful, & fresh, & the garlic naan was soft with the right amount of crispiness-an excellent complement to the dish. The ice cream was a delightful way to end the meal. The ambience of the restaurant is fantastic-modern yet cozy, making it the perfect spot for a casual meal or a special occasion. The service was top-notch; the staff were attentive, friendly, & ensured we had everything we needed. I remember served by LEA & she had attention to detail when told about my dietary preferences. The location is ideal, easy to find, & well-connected. Overall, this place is a gem for anyone looking to enjoy authentic Indian cuisine. Highly recommend!"View more

I went there with my friends & I tried Dal Makhni with Garlic naan, Dahi kebab, Sofiyana paneer, chaat paapdi. Ambience was great. Every single dish was among one of the best Indian dishes I have tried in Canada. Coming from New Delhi I can confidently say that everything was authentic. The chef is very humble & passionate for his work. I had a long conversation with him about his process. 10/10View more

This was my fifth visit to Rendez-vous Bistro, & it never disappoints! I first visited when it had just opened for an office party with over 20 people. Despite the restaurant being on the smaller side, it didn't feel cramped at all, & the staff handled the large group with ease & dedication. As a non-vegetarian, I have tried almost all of their non-veg starters, & each one has been out of this world! The flavors are simply exquisite. From the mains, dishes like goat curry, butter chicken, & palak chicken have consistently stood out - perfectly spiced & absolutely delicious. This time, I went with a few vegetarian friends & sampled most of their veg options. The dahi kebab & veg manchurian starters were just amazing, & in the mains, the brinjal curry & paneer butter masala were mouth-watering. The balance of flavors was spot on. The wait staff, as always, were extremely accommodating & attentive, making the experience even more enjoyable. This is a must-visit place for Indian food lovers, & I will definitely be returning for more!View more

Amazing amazing indian restaurant (I've tasted a lot & this is among my top 3 in Montreal). It's a perfect spot for dates but also a night out with friends & family. You can modify the level of spiciness to full enjoy the beautiful aroma of each dishes. I LOVE the paneer dishes & their naans. If you love mutton, go with this dish : kashmiri mutton rista. If you love chicken, go with this dish : tangri kebab & dum chicken biryani.View more

Visited Rendez-vous bistro on the labour day weekend upon seeing good rating & reviews & the restaurant staff justified the rating by ensuring that we got great service & food. Tried Chicken tikka masala (spot on taste), Paneer lababdaar (bit sweet for our taste), garlic nan (superb!), chicken biryani (a bit above average) & paan kulfi (good taste). Loved the experience, thank you staff/owners.View more

Had a lovely time on their terrace for dinner. Our waiter was very welcoming & attentive. We had the murg methi malai, which was to die for, the paneer lababdar & some garlic naan. For dessert we had the paan kulfi which was equally amazing. This was definitely the best Indian food I've had in a long time. Will be coming back!View more

I am very passionate about this being the best Indian restaurant I have ever been to. When we walked in, they said it was reservation only & that we wouldn't be able to come in. But, we were quickly accommodated & sat down at a table when they were full for the night. The staff was extremely welcoming & the chef himself even asked us how the food was. Now, to the food. One consistent issue I have run into with Indian restaurants is that they don't have enough vegetarian options, or the vegetarian food is extremely subpar compared to non-veg options. They KNOCKED it out of the park with the food here. Everything tasted extremely fresh & authentic, & was the perfect combination of spicy & flavorful. The Naan & Roti was extremely good, & perfectly complemented the curry we got which was the Paneer Lababdar, the Veg Kohlapuri & the Dal Makhani. This place was worth the whole trip to Montreal, coming all the way from Maryland, USA. I highly praise the staff & the chef for being amazing & wonderful. I am happy to say this is the best Indian restaurant in North America, & highly recommend this place to anyone that visits Montreal.View more
