Kuljit India is widely praised as a hidden gem with a warm ambiance and fast, friendly service, offering authentic Indian and Punjabi flavors that shine from samosas and chana bhatura to butter chicken, naan, aloo gobi, and fish pakora. The food is described as fresh, flavorful, and reasonably priced, with many diners noting generous portions and a homely, no-nonsense approach that keeps locals and visitors coming back for takeout or dine-in. Spice levels are customizable, and some dishes are highlighted as must-tries, including the amritsari kulcha and the chole bhatura. While the restaurant is consistently busy and the overall experience is positive, a few reviews point to occasional portion size changes, uneven service, and decor that could improve, and one account mentions a staff member being less welcoming. On balance, Kuljit India emerges as one of the city's top Indian-Punjabi options, delivering delicious, comforting dishes at fair prices and a reliable, repeat-worthy dining experience.
Une belle surprise au coeur de Montréal. La nourriture était excellente & authentique. Nous avons adoré le poulet au beurre. L'ambiance est agréable & nous avons passé une très belle soirée entre amis. Nous avons aussi apprécié les films bollywood diffusés en arrière-plan. Le service était impeccable , le staff est très accueillante & chaleureuse. Je le recommande fortement si vous êtes dans le coin de Côte-Vertu.
never ate something i didn't like here, & whenever i bring people who aren't big fans of indian food, they have always finished their plate! lamb, chicken, samosas, naan, everything is perfect

Kuljit India in Ville Saint-Laurent is an absolute gem! The ambiance is warm & inviting, & the staff are incredibly welcoming & attentive. The food is outstanding-each dish bursting with authentic flavors & perfect spices. From the appetizers to the desserts, every bite is a delight. Highly recommend this place for anyone craving delicious, authentic Indian cuisine in Montreal!
This is like our regular go to place. Whenever we think of homely Indian food , we feel like visiting Kuljit India. I never felt the necessity of putting my review for them , but during our recent visit we were so overwhelmed by the impeccable taste of fish pakora that I took a vow to post my review. It was super tasty, tender from inside & crispy from outside. Their chole bhature, paneer butter masala, mixed veg, lamb seekh kebab, lamb korma, lamb karahi, paratha worth mentioning for the delicious taste & satisfying quantity. They serve refreshing mango lassi as well. You have option of BYOD too. All the staffs are welcoming & polite. Though they have moderate sitting arrangement but the good part is it's not congested & free parking is available. Anytime is good time to enjoy their food.

I'm no expert in Indian cuisine but I know what I like, & I really like this place, not only great competitive pricing but very delicious food, just ordered the lamb korma, chicken & lamb biryani all was outstanding. You have just earned yourself a future repeat regular customer.
Quite a homely feeling both in terms of food & ambiance. I have visited twice in last three weeks with my family & we all enjoyed their hospitality. We are vegetarian & can recommend those with full accountability.
We visited this place for a quick lunch. Ordered veg & non veg thali. The veg thali was awesome tasty & very hot. The naan bread was so soft. However, the lamb curry in the non veg thali was very bad. It had a very bad taste. The veg thali had daal which was soooooo good. Baingan bartha (burnt aubergine curry) was also very nice. Paid 30$ in total. Okay for a one time visit. Family owned place was neat & brightly lit.
Recently had an absolutely delightful experience! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted warmly by the staff, who provided excellent service throughout the meal. The ambiance was inviting, with a charming decor that added to the overall dining experience. Overall great food, staff & cooking. Highly recommended!
It was affordable. The food was good, but not good enough to be worth a detour if you don't live nearby. The lamb dish we tried was just ok. The butter chicken was better but not too memorable. The restaurant is small. Didn't have to wait long, as we want on a weekday, but I don't know if it gets crowded on weekends. Free parking is available, but it's limited.
Extremely delicious & flavourful food. We ordered the fish pakoras, lentil soup, samosas & chat samosas for appetizers. Even the kids ate it all! The flavours were intense without being overpowering. The goat curry, lamb stew with coconut milk & chicken vindaloo were fantastic. We ordered some of the dishes spicy & they hit the mark without making it too intense. Both fried naan & regular naan were really fresh & crispy. The papadams, raita & paalak panneer were great as well. The owners & servers had a lot of patience considering there were a few rowdy kids there that night, & that is always a bonus for the parents. Highly recommended!!!
