We visited Palki on a quiet Monday night in Montreal & had a really nice experience. The menu had a good variety of options, which made it easy to find something we liked.
We tried the fish pakora (4 pieces), which were soft & flavorful, & the shrimp Madras-definitely a good choice if you enjoy a bit of spice.
Overall, it was a pleasant spot for a relaxed date night. Would visit again.

I was looking for an ethnic restaurant in Old Montreal & encounter by chance Palki Indian cuisine.
When I got in had the amazing vibe of been in India with a great decor & high end style .
The service is really outstanding .
The food flavours were exquisite.
We order the chicken masala & the lamb curry & were amazing .
The sides for meat are not too big for the dishes & I notice there were only 6 very small pieces for each dish .
I would suggest the dishes to be a bit load of any meat of the choice & less sauce .
The side dishes were really great , the garlic nann was delicious but very thin compare to many Indian restaurants I have been in Canada, best samosas I had try in Montreal .
Overall give at for food because there dishes should be more load with the meat of the choice instead of sauces .
Had a really great experience here. The food was honestly amazing - everything tasted fresh & full of flavor. Our server, Tuskan, was super friendly & made sure we were taken care of the whole time, which made a big difference.
The ambiance was really nice, calm & welcoming, & the whole place was very clean. You can tell they put effort into both the food & the overall experience.
Definitely a spot I'd come back to & recommend to others.
This restaurant was amazing! It was clean, spacious & beautifully decorated. Staff was great & attentive but most importantly the food was amazing - everything we tried was perfect. Highly recommend!
Abdul is one of the most amazing chefs that I have come across. I ordered the vindaloo, & the taste were amazing & the level of spice made me check myself. It made me experience the flavors while still delivering the heat that I would expect. This was one best dining experiences in a long time. Highly recommend & you won't disappointed. I give give one hundred stars on scale of five.
