Une excellente nourriture, mais l'expérience est malheureusement réduite par un service qui laisse à désirer & un prix trop élevé.

Je recommande:

- Un menu plus clair pour l'option Thali du dimanche.

- Un service plus accueillant & souriant

- Un environnement mieux entretenu (Surtout à l'arrière près des salles de bain)

Côté nourriture, les plats sont délicieux & une attention particulière est donnée pour l'apparence des plats. Le chef est extraordinaire!

Been here twice, overall a great experience, cocktails are good, appetizers are unique & taste delicious, We tried dahi ke kebab, bhatti ka murg, & few other specials in menu as well.

The staff was very friendly. We were there about closing time so got to greet the chef as well.
When a chef is passionate, it shows in his food & that's whats good about this restaurant. Would be eating here again next time i crave authentic Indian food.

Must try - Dahi ke kebab (unique, creamy flavour)
Chili shrimp (my favourite)

Best Indian food restaurant in Montreal! The food was absolutely amazing - with true, authentic Rajasthani flavour. Every dish was rich, delicious, & brought back beautiful memories of Udaipur.

The ambience gives a real taste of Rajasthan, & you can feel the authenticity in every detail - especially because the owner, the chef, & the staff are all originally from Rajasthan.

Special shoutout to Shaurya - he was super nice, humble, & his service made the experience even better.

Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for genuine Indian food with the true taste of Rajasthan!

We were visiting Montreal from Toronto & this restaurant is a best place to enjoy Indian food. Chef/owner Chakradhar Chandela knows how to keep the flavours authentic & has exceptional skills in cooking. Shaurya also was very helpful in explaining about the flavours & ingredients about each dish we ordered. 💯 recommend to enjoy authentic Indian food when visiting Montreal.

From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt inviting, thanks to Lea's & the other staff's warm, sweet greeting that instantly made us feel at home. Roshan's service was simply outstanding - attentive without being intrusive, genuinely warm, & incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. He even accommodated our special request for a less spicy chicken malai tikka for my kid - & wow, she absolutely relished it. His recommendations were nothing short of spectacular, & his charm made the whole experience even more memorable. The lamb curry was one of a kind - so tender & authentic, unlike anything I've tasted abroad. The kulfi dessert was pure nostalgia, & meeting the hotel owner/chef was a delight - such a grounded personality. Fully recommended - if you're looking for authentic Indian food, this is the place. You'll be blown away. I'll definitely be back!

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!

Absolutely incredible thali experience!
The flavors here are truly unmatched in Montreal - rich, royal, & deeply satisfying. Every dish in the thali was perfectly spiced, unique in taste, & clearly prepared with love, care, & attention to detail. You can tell nothing is mass-produced; each item felt handcrafted to perfection.

The staff were warm & welcoming, & the chef personally came over to ask for feedback, which shows how committed they are to understanding & meeting the expectations of their guests. This level of hospitality, combined with the outstanding food, makes it an easy 10/10 for taste & service. A must-visit if you're craving authentic, soulful Indian food.

Que ça soit les plats super copieux, les prix très abordables, le service & le chef cuisto qui passe à la fin du service pour demander si tout s'est bien passé.

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 careful

If you want real authentic Indian food that is custom made to your wishes & taste, this is the place to go. Nice, clean restaurant with friendly staff. We were very pleased with the food & chef paid us a visit. They gave us complementary gulab jamun. Junglee mass is highly recommended.
