Didar earns broad praise for delicious Indian fare, generous portions and affordable prices, with many noting it as among the best in Montreal. The menu features butter chicken, curries, dal, channa, samosas, fresh naans and rice, offering variety and consistently solid flavor. The restaurant is described as a warm, family run spot with clean premises and friendly service, and it remains highly recommended over the years by a loyal crowd. The place is practical rather than fancy, yet visits are treated as a must by diners traveling from near and far, thanks to reliable flavors and value, including mentions of an all you can eat lunch buffet in some reviews.
We visited this restaurant last night while visiting Montreal. Found it on Google maps & it had great reviews , & was close to our hotel, so decided to try.
Wow !! Amazing food & service.
We ordered PaneerTikka , Butter Chicken , & Channa Masala with garlic Naan.
The Paneer Tikka came out sizzling on a cast iron grill & smelled & looked amazing . Tastes even better 😍
Every dish was bursting with flavour, loved them all.
Chatted with the owners, a family owned & run business for 25 years. Great experience overall, & look forward to returning on our next trip to Montreal .
Be sure to check out Didar Restaurant, highly recommend.

2 order of tika masalla & 3 naan for 50 bucks no rice, no no side veg, bland flavor. Didn't give an utensils & when I came back for them they were already closed. Do nor recommend
The food was absolutely delicious, big portions, & service was excellent. You can see that the owners take pride in their food. Highly recommend! I wish I had taken pictures! Will definitely be going back soon!
Best Indian restaurant in Montreal. Prices are soooo cheap! Butter chicken is to die for. I go at least once a month even if I now live in Sherbrooke. They have a 10$ all you can eat buffet all week long during lunch. They offer a variety of dishes ( soups, samosas, vegetarian & non vegetarian curries, Dal, Channa, fresh naans & rice, etc.) Tried pretty much everything & everything was amazing. Staff is nice as well! I think its run by a family. The place isnt fancy at all, the front of the building isnt actually nice but its so worth it. & its clean. You gotta try it!
Update: It's been 7 years since my initial review & this restaurant is still one of my favourite! I brought all my friends & family & everyone loves it!

Nice Indian food, one of the best in Montreal if not the best, both in terms of taste & price. My only issue is that it was cold & din when I went there, i think they wanted to same on the hydro bill lol
i keep ordering from Didar because they are quite literally the best indian resto in montreal. The quality of their food is top notch & the service even better. Its been 15 years that i have been going here (before the name change) & the quality has never changed. I placed an uber eats order & even though i forgot to add free promotional item the staff was more then willing to add it to my order. Very classy, & appreciated!!!!!
