J'ai vraiment tout aimé. Tout les plats étaient savoureux. C'est le meilleur poulet tandouri que j'ai mangé. Mon serveur m'a expliqué tout le menu où presque. Lol. Très bon prix pour la qualité des repas. Choix diversifier & en plus ils font leurs propres pain naan. Je suis allez pour la fête de ma fille avec sa copine & mon fils. Les 3 ados ont tripper au boute. Je recommande x1000. Merci pour la soirée.
Hello, we were going to a play at the Centaur Theatre & wanted a meal before. As we strolled through Notre-Dame street, we came across Restaurant Palki Indian Cuisine. We found a special combo for two ($50), which included salad & the main dish, chicken, shrimp, & lamb chops (2 pieces of each) served with a delicate rice & vegetables (not too spicy, just right). The decor was calm & relaxing, the atmosphere was very friendly, the service was impeccable, & our waiter was very attentive to our needs. We will go back next time & highly recommend them.

Last Saturday i had dinner with my family & it was an amazing experience! The food was delicious, authentic, & full of rich Indian flavors. I've tried many places, but I truly love the Indian food here the most. The service was excellent & the atmosphere warm & welcoming. Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys genuine Indian cuisine!

We were very fortunate to find Palki restaurant (serving an Indian Cuisine) while on vacation in Montreal (Sep 2025). Even though one of our party has fairly strict dietary requirements (of vegetarian & no cheese), the food was absolutely delicious, cooked exactly to the spice level we preferred. The service was excellent (we even were able to meet & speak with the chef) & we enjoyed the atmosphere. Although the restaurant did not yet have its' alcohol license (due this week), we really didn't miss it for the food was so good & we enjoyed the specialty tea. We highly recommend it to both visitors & locals alike.
