Incredibly tasty & flavourful. We were given great pairing advice as well to compliment our dish selections. Highly recommend this place!

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!

I am very perplexed about this one considering the 4.8 stars as of writing this review.

We reserved for 2 in advance. Busy Tuesday evening, it took over 1h to have our food with no clear communication or follow up.

We tried 2 NON-spicy bowls to pair with their spicy turbo naan. The waiter had warned the naan would be spicy, we said we don't mind spicy & to make it as spicy as a local would authentically take. We obviously never asked for the bowls to be made spicy, & certainly didn't expect that the bowls would turn EXTRA spicy, to the extent we couldn't taste anything else (please see the ridiculous pepper picture).

Upon receiving our food, the staff never came back before billing time, therefore we had no chance to discuss this. No excuse, no solution, just a spicy mess overwhelming all other tastes. It's like they purposely avoided us from this point on. The experience was horrible, spicy beyond comprehension.

The billing itself was rude. They cancelled the payment as I was paying, stepped away, came back 5 min later because a previous client had been overcharged they were adjusting their billing system by subtracting something like 40 cents off our bill. Weird stuff, shouldn't be our problem to partake in, & it made us feel like they were about to assume some responsibility for the off experience, only for this to be about themselves. Super selfish.

All in all? Displeasing & weird customer service experience, no adjustment or feedback possible, a very long wait, pricy dishes, & a dish so spicy no human on earth would enjoy the experience.

I can't understand the hype & I certainly don't recommend. STAY AWAY, there are much better Indian restaurants out there.

Un des meilleurs restaurant indien de ma vie. Nous avons mangés des plats végétariens (dahl, paneer, riz, naan Philadelphia ail, lassi salé). Les saveurs étaient sublimes. Les quantités sont très généreuses. Nous sommes repartis avec des doggybag.

Une très belle découverte, je vous le recommande !

Food was so delicious. Must recommended dish for vegetarians who love paneer would be Kolhapuri Paneer which has accurate spices & flavourful gravy. Also, big applause to Shaurya who is really helpful, polite & generous.

We visited the restaurant today. I have tried lots of indian restarants here in montreal but, it is one of the best in terms of food & ambienece. Affordable price with authentic taste. We tried pan kulfi dessert & it was extraordinary. Must try food here. Highly recommended.

Being an Indian & a foodie, I am always looking for authentic Indian restaurants, & this one definitely made it to one of my favs. I was surprised to see dishes like Laal Maas & Gatta Curry on the menu!!! Kudos to the owner for the bold move of adding authentic Rajasthani cuisine in the menu!
I ordered
dahi kebab = soft inside, crispy outside, perfect chutneys on the side. Melts in the mouth!
Basil Chicken tikka= soft & juicy with the perfect blend of basil & spices.
Laal Maas= Indian level spicy so be careful! If you can handle the heat you need to try this dish! Will definitely go back for it!
Panner methi churma = rich sauce, soft paneer, perfect amount of methi!
Paan kulfi = MUST TRY!!!! This made me nostalgic & brought me back to India! The flavors of meetha paan are perfect in this kulfi!!!

Definitely recommended & will go back!!! ❤?

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!

Amazing food & top notch service!
Tried chat papri & the platter was very appetizing. Main course was equally pleasant. Highly recommend this place to try out dishes that you don't easily find on an Indian restaurant menu :)
