Overall, Mehfil earns praise for flavorful, fresh, and generously portioned dishes across options like butter lamb curry, biryani, and a satisfying buffet, with several reviews highlighting friendly, attentive service and a warm, welcoming ambience suitable for meals and hosting events; however, some consistency issues are noted, including appetizers arriving after mains, mixed-up orders, and irregular water service, along with occasional decor drawbacks, while a few menu items such as a very salty chicken noodle dish and undercooked meat were reported, though many guests say problems were addressed and the kitchen showed responsiveness, and some patrons later observed improved service.
I visited this place with my family, & overall it felt similar to many average Indian restaurants in the area. The food taste & quality are good, & we enjoyed several dishes. However, the service definitely needs improvement, as it felt slower & less attentive than expected. The restaurant also comes across as overpriced for what it offers, especially considering the overall experience.
With a few adjustments in service & pricing, this place could deliver a much stronger value for families.
I don't speak English or French, & I'm not familiar with Indian cuisine, so I asked him to guide me. For starters, a kind of vegetable spring roll made me think this was going to be good. Lamb in butter sauce was beautifully presented, giving me great pleasure with every bite. Garlic bread with cheese. & dessert rounded off an adventure I'll try to repeat.

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.
We visited here for the first time last week. Must say the food was top notch, one of the best tasting Indian food in Montreal. Very well presented, great taste & big portions, pleasantly surprising for an upscale restaurant.
If you are looking for authentic Indian food in Montreal this is one of the best restaurants!! We were passing by Montreal & found this restaurants by chance. Food was amazing so do the service. We tried Tandoori fish & it tasted so fresh & flavorful. We will definitely visit here again.

We celebrated our daughter 3rd birthday. Their party hall is very spacious & very beautiful. Food is next level, never had this quality of Indian food in Montreal. You made our day memorable. Thank you so much.
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 just moved to Laval, & I was so hard pressed to find a good Indian restaurant. I miss the cuisine that is readily available in Montreal, I did not think I would find a comparable replacement in my area. I was pleasantly surprised when I ordered from Mehfil. The food is just amazing & fresh, the portions are good, & the prices are reasonable; I had the Chicken Madras & the Bhindi which were out of this world, even better tasting than my favourite Indian eatery in Montreal. I am so happy to have found Mehfil right here in my neighbourhood. I will be a regular customer & will make a point of ordering at least once a week; its that good.
