Restaurant Mehfil draws broad praise for flavorful, fresh dishes, generous portions, and a warm, inviting atmosphere. Reviewers highlight attentive, friendly service and a setting that makes meals and celebrations feel special. The menu offers a wide variety and many items are described as tasty and well executed, with butter chicken, biryani, pani puri, and garlic naan noted among favorites. Some experiences show inconsistency, including a very salty chicken noodle dish and undercooked chicken in biryani, suggesting room for tighter kitchen control. Takeout and dine in both receive positive remarks, with free parking in the plaza listed as a plus. Overall, Mehfil is viewed as offering solid value and dependable quality most of the time, suitable for families, friends, or hosting events, while a few dishes remind guests to manage expectations.
I recently ordered the chicken noodle dish &, to be honest, I was very disappointed. The noodles were extremely salty, to the point where they were difficult to enjoy. I mentioned this to the waitress, who was extremely helpful & kind. She even tasted the dish herself & agreed it was overly salty. She kindly returned the noodles to the kitchen, & a fresh serving was brought out. Unfortunately, the replacement was just as salty as the first.
Aside from the noodles, everything else about the meal was good. The service was excellent, & the staff went out of their way to try to make things right. However, the seasoning of the noodles really overshadowed the rest of the experience.
Dined at Mehfil today with my hubby & everything was superbe! I was craving pani puri & some chicken biryani, & the expectation was fairly exceeded. Would most definitely go back again & totally recommend it! :)

I was really looking forward to the chicken biryani, but unfortunately, the chicken pieces were undercooked & slightly pink inside - a serious issue from both a taste & safety perspective. The rice was fragrant & well-seasoned, but the undercooked meat ruined the experience. I hope the kitchen tightens up their food safety protocols.

One of the few restaurants with free parking (in plaza)
Butter chicken, chilli Gobi, & dal makhni with garlic naan & tandoori naan
Food was genuinely good..we had lacchha paratha, tandoori roti, chicken tikka masala, chicken chilli, rice, dal tarka. Everything was good & tasted yummy. Service was fast too & the atmosphere is also good
Bought a non vege thali. The chicken curry was not good, no taste, watery. tiny pieces of butter chicken but that tasted good, rice was just rice. The portion is extremely small. Otherwise the place looks clean n service was ok.

Very good food. Had the mix grill & the butter chicken. Makes me want to come back! Great overall experience. Thank you to Anju & Jaspreet for the great service!
I come to visit from us went to have dinner with my family friends service was great & food batter chicken & kadai paneer & garlic naan definitely come back with my whole family thanks
Very good place for indian dishes in Laval! This spot deserves to be known. It's well decorated, super clean & friendliest staff! I had one of the best butter chicken ever! It's not overly spicy, so you can easily taste all the spices. I recommend the following (especially for people who isn't familiar with indian dishes, I promise you, you'll be amazed) : Samosas, onion bhaji, fish pakora, butter chicken, plain naan. Bonus : You can reserve a private room for parties such as : birthdays, corporate parties, weddings & more! There is a bar included.
We were served a seemingly never-ending variety of delectable Indian cuisine dishes & we would love to talk about each one because they were all excellent. Some of our favorites included: the Chili Paneer, the Fish Pakora, Gol Gappe, & the Chili Chicken Biryani. We also loved the 4 types of naan & the delicious Gulab Jamun for dessert. We enjoyed several wonderful drinks from their bar, both with & without alcohol. Despite having tried so many different plates, we still didn't get halfway through the menu. There are so many items with so many options that we need to return to try them all! They also have a decently sized event hall that can accommodate parties of any kind

The quality of their food is exceptional, with each dish meticulously prepared using the finest ingredients. The service is top-notch, characterized by attentive & friendly staff who go above & beyond to ensure every dining experience is perfect. Butter chicken, lamb Rogan Josh & paneer Lawabda is very delicious beyond the expectations. Thank you Mehefil.
During my recent visit to Montreal, I dined at Mehfil &.... wow; I was blown away! As someone who often eats at renowned Indian restaurants in NJ & NYC (where Im from), I can confidently say Mehfil is the best I've experienced in many ways. I have not had better tasting butter chicken anywhere else; the flavors transported me back to India. Beyond the butter chicken, the other meat & veg dishes (their paneer is a must-have) are top-notch, each cooked to perfection with authentic spices. On top of that, the customer service was wonderful, & the drinks were expertly crafted. If you're in Montreal, you don't wanna miss out on Mehfil!

As an Indian, I always look for good Indian restaurants when I travel, & this one truly stands out. In all my visits to Indian restaurants across Canada, I haven't found any that match the authenticity & flavor of this place. While I was in Montreal for a couple of days, I enjoyed their Indian dishes. Karahi Chicken, Butter Chicken, Fish Tikka, & Dal Makhani are must-tries. If you love Indian food, this place is a must.
We travelled from USA to Qubec city & took stop here.. the food was great & Muskan was good host. While coming back we decided to visit it again.. shrimp curry , shahi panner , chicken Biryani was great. Everything was came quick & inexpensive compared to to dishes we have been paying on other restaurants. Definitely recommended!
This is the BEST indian food restaurant no doubt. The samosas, 10/10. The naan bread, 10/10. Butter chicken, 10/10. Mango Lassi, 10/10., etc. The atmosphere of the place is charming, there's never a lot of people so it's a great place if you don't like overcrowded spots. The waitresses were so nice, they came to check up often while we were eating, to make sure everything was to our taste & that we didn't need anything more. I'm kind of surprised at how underrated this restaurant is, but i'm not complaining, more for me☺️ Would 100% go back again, this is my favorite Indian restaurant. Thank you to the staff for being nice & inviting.
i order butter chicken,lamb madras its too delicious service was excellent by cute girl nice ambiance i will come back with my friends i highly recommend this restaurant
