I went to this restaurant because of their 4 versions of butter chicken. I had the burrata butter chicken & it was delicious. One of the best I had. The cocktails were also good. The best part is the personalized service. Definitely going back & 100% recommend.View more

We ate here for our anniversary dinner, & it was one of the most delicious & satisfying meals I've had in a very long time. The samosa were big & flaky, & the palak paneer had just the right amount of spice. Highly recommend the burrata butter chicken. Well-designed interior & impeccable service.View more

One of the finest places in Montreal to try Indian food. I would rate it 10/10 on the food quality & taste, we tried their pomfret, chicken, butter paneer & they were all amazing. On top of that the cocktails they have are superb. & the owners are perfect host, they will check on you to ensure that everything is good. & last but not the least their pistachio tiramisu was extremely tasty, I would highly recommend this place.View more

We went there from Ottawa on a friend's recommendation. We tried both vegetarian & non vegetarian options. The highlight was Dal Rutba one of the best so far I've had. Lahsooni murg Tikka was ok for me, a bit chewy but I've trust in their kitchen & they'll do justice to it. In main course we had kadhai chicken & paneer Tikka masala. Overall taste is good but a little more roasting the base of the gravy will enhance the taste . They can use a bit less oil because their food is delicious anyway. Naan, laccha paratha, rosemary naan(very creative) & delicious. All the breads were fresh, soft & delicious. The staff is so friendly & treated everyone nicely. Either owner was accompanying every table when the order arrived & gave their personal attention. We're in awe of how the staff was dealing with everyone & everything. Overall the restaurant looks promising & would love to go there again & try other options. Kudos team Rutba, way to go!View more

We had a lovely meal at Rutba. Amazing Indian food with a twist & interesting pairings. We had the Pani Puri, the Papri Chat, Tikka with blue cheese & the Butter Chicken with pistachio & raisins, which were all delicious. Great atmosphere & presentation. Aleena, our waitress, was very attentive & took great care of us.View more

They say food can make you feel at home & well this place proves it. Visited Rutba with my parents & it was everything about home they were missing - great Indian flavours, warm & welcoming vibes & nostalgic music. We ordered chicken tikka that was juicy & flavourful, the saag channa was an unexpected surprise & paneer biryani was the best we had in a while. Must try for anyone looking for'Ghar ka khana' with a twistView more

Visiting from New York, the classic butter chicken & palak paneer were great as was the coriander chutney--super fresh & vibrant flavors, our dishes were luxuriously creamy & not greasy at all like so many NYC spots. Also very accommodating for our not quite 2-year-old daughter! Looking forward to returning next time we're in Montreal!View more

Une vraie découverte. C'est le meilleur restaurant indien que j'ai eu la chance d'essayer! J'ai mangé le poulet au beurre avec la Burrata & le melange des deux était incroyable. Tout était un melange savoureux a partir des drinks, du pain Naan & des sauces. Je vais certainement y retourner pour essayer le reste du menu! ----- A real discovery. This is the best Indian restaurant I've ever had the chance to try! I ate the butter chicken with the Burrata & the combination of the two was incredible. Everything was a tasty mix from the drinks, Naan bread & sauces. I will definitely go back to try the rest of the menu!

We dined in . We ordered butter chicken, paneer labobdar, malai koffta, butter naan, garlic naan, lasha prantha, with 70 percent spice level. Just salt was less in paneer labobdar & malai paneer. Service was 100 percent perfect from my side, one white girl, she was very polite & humble she treated us well. Thanks 👍🏻View more
