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 ordered the butter lamb curry, cumin rice, & garlic nane. It was all delicious.
The person who work there are really welcoming & answered all of our needs.
Constructive criticism:
1- Add some ambiance to the restaurant. Like nashid playing, a big TV with something that has to do with your culture, lighting
2- Serve every customers from the same table at the same time. It's awkward when someone receive their dish & the next one 10 minutes later.
3- Serve the appetizers BEFORE the main dishes. We received our orders all mixed up. I received the main dish so I started eating, then in the middle of it I received my appetizer lol
4- Always fresh water bottles on table. We had water that has been sitting there all day before we asked for fresh water. Also, we had to ask the waitress for water all the time. Usually, waitress notice that & bring water by themselves.
By the way, this is how it works in every other restaurants.
The food was delicious, so if you guys make the service better, this could become a top tier restaurant.
UPDATE: I went back yesterday & the service was better. They made sure to serve us our appetizers before the main dishes. They were also canstantly changing our empty water bottles. Therefore, I am upgrading my review stars from 4* to 5*. Food was delicious as always.
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
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.
