Review Summary

Overall, Rendez-vous Bistro earns high marks for authentic Indian flavors, generous portions, and attentive service, with many reviewers calling it a standout in Montreal and praising bold spices, rich gravies, and polished presentations. The menu offers a wide range from paneer and dal to Rajasthani specialties and thalis, with numerous mentions of dishes like Laal Maas, Dahi kebab, Paneer Kolhapuri, and Murgh methi malai as standout picks; the thali is repeatedly described as hearty and satisfying. The atmosphere is described as cozy and inviting, balancing an upscale feel with welcoming hospitality, though a few reviews note moments of pacing confusion or a slightly cooler dining room. Value is a common thread, as portions are typically generous and prices reasonable for the quality, with many travelers and locals declaring it a go to for authentic flavors that feel true to their roots while offering creative twists. Overall, it is described as a warm, dependable spot worth returning to for more explorations of the menu.

The spicy cocktail I got was one of my favourite cocktails ever, sweet & spicy & tasted delicious!! The paneer appetizer we got was 100% my favourite, the flavours were so amazing I would come back just for that! The naan & paneer dishes we got were also super good, the white one was a bit sweet for what I'd typically like but I think it's normal for that dish & I wanted to try something different. Will definitely come again, great for vegetarians!

Papdi chaat was very yum. Wish portion sizings were a little bigger for the price, but that is my only complaint.

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.

Amazing food & great service! We ordered the Tulsi Paneer Tikka, Dahi ke kebab, Paneer Lababdar, & Dal Makhani. Everything was cooked to perfection, especially the Garlic Naan. If you're looking for authentic Indian flavors, this is the place to go!

Super impressed by the service.We had few concerns with the drinks we ordered however the server who attended our table apologized multiple times for our experience & provided dessert free of cost. Super impressed by their hospitality & top notch service.

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)

Delicious food! Probably the best Indian restaurant in Montreal. Everything was amazing, & Shaurya was a wonderful server. Will definitely come back again.

I'm not used to Indian food, but it seemed very good to me. The attention could be better, it was like the waiter wasn't trying to be polite nor efficient.

Manchurian veg was on point, butter chicken is not ordinary & is still full of flavor, the must try dish imho is the laal Maas, full of unique flavor & with the right amount of spice (hotter the butter chicken of course).
