If you are looking for an exceptional dining experience in the city, Palki is a must-visit. Located right in the heart of Montréal, this spot is a true gem for anyone craving genuine flavors.
The food here is the real deal-incredibly flavorful & striking that perfect balance of traditional Indian spices & fresh ingredients. Whether you prefer a mild curry or something with a serious kick, the kitchen delivers authentic quality in every bite.
Beyond the menu, the hospitality is standout; the staff was very nice & welcoming from the moment I walked in. It is also a notably clean restaurant with a pleasant, well-maintained interior that makes the entire dining experience feel comfortable & polished.
Between the authentic flavors & the warm service, Palki stands out as one of the best Indian spots in Montréal. I'll definitely be coming back!

Tried Tarka Dahl, Malai Kofta & Paneer saag-everything was delicious! We practically licked the plates clean. FYI: Everything comes non spicy unless you ask the chef to make it spicier. Great for vegetarians.

Had a single night in Montreal & most restaurants were fully booked. Food was good. Service was nice. Seemed like the restaurant staff was hesitant to come over & bring over the check, maybe thinking they were interrupting. Overall, good experience.

Nous entrions un peu à reculons dans le restaurant car il n'y avait alors personne, mais nous étions dans une heure « creuse » en après-midi. Quelle belle surprise ! Belle décoration & ambiance, un serveur très attentionné, courtois, poli & parlant bien français. Avons pris du poulet (menu combo) ainsi que des plats d'agneau. Plats tout simplement délicieux & débordants de saveurs & épices indiennes. Portions copieuses & prix très raisonnables. Une très belle trouvaille !

The service was absolutely excellent-friendly, attentive, & welcoming throughout our visit. The food was extra delicious, full of flavour & clearly made with care. What really stood out was that the chef personally came out to check on us & even offered us a bottle of beer to try, along with an extra mint sauce. The mint sauce was incredibly delicious & paired perfectly with the food. Overall, a fantastic experience with great food, outstanding service, & thoughtful personal touches. Highly recommend!

Restaurant Palki hosted a perfect night out for us! The food was excellent, the service too, ambience was on point.
We had the poulet tandoori & the'butter chicken' as our entrees. I started with the Mulligatawny (lentil) soup, which was so delicious I'm convinced it must be a family recipe.
The butter chicken was right up my wife's alley - flavorful without a lot of heat. I haven't had tandoori in a long time & was craving it - chef did not disappoint with fall-off-the-bone tender & moist chicken steeped in bold tandoori flavor. The lime wedge was a perfect touch, it brightened everything right up.
The atmosphere inside is tasteful & very inviting - obviously the ownership wants you to enjoy your whole meal experience, not just the food on your plate.
Palki is the kind of place that reminds me what dining out should be like in restaurants of any cuisine & I hope we see more restaurants return to, in the future.
Highly recommended, please try it for yourself! If I was local I'd be a regular but since I was visiting I'm very glad I can say Restaurant Palki was part of our Montreal Experience.
