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.

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.
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.
Guys this is a place you must try I am a chef myself & detail in food & service is super important. Literally the best butter chicken I ever had, the Biryani is so flavorful & fragrant with fresh & delicious naan bread. Fantastic service & great people. I definitely recommend it!
My partner & I had a lovely lunch. We had the Lentil soup, butter chicken & Garlic Naan. Each dish was very delicious, we shared the chicken dish with rice & Naan & it hit the spot for perfect amount of food. Very lovely service as well & the atmosphere is very comfortable & cute.
Absolument la meilleure cuisine indienne que j'ai jamais goûtée ! L'ambiance est fantastique, la nourriture est incroyable & l'attention aux détails est impressionnante. À essayer absolument, fortement recommandé ! Ne manquez pas leur Burrata Butter Chicken & leurs cocktails irrésistibles.

Great ambience & interesting menu, the service was great & the food fantastic. The honey chilli cauliflower, burrata butter chicken & eggplant curry were delicious & they can make it really spicy, yay!
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!
One of the best indian restaurant in Montreal. The food is mouth watering with great service. The people working at restaurant are so welcoming & loving. Malai Kofta, Butter Chicken & garlic naan are must try. If you're looking for brunch, do try their paranthas. A must visit !!!! Great vibe.

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 👍🏻
