The menu charms with authentic Indian flavors expressed in richly layered curries, creamy dals, tender tandoor dishes, and fluffy garlic naan, with butter chicken and paneer preparations singled out as favorites and burrata butter chicken a memorable modern twist. Appetizers such as samosas and pani puri shine, while portions are generous and prices very reasonable, making it easy to sample a variety of dishes in one visit.

Exceptional food. My partner is not a fan of Indian food & he absolutely loved this place. Generous portions, reasonable prices, great flavours & lovely service. Paneer tikka masala with naan & a bengal bay cocktail 👌 12/10

I came here with my friend when she was visiting Montreal & it did not disappoint!! Our server Kira was lovely & gave us the excellent recommendation of pani puri as an appetizer. It was delightfully refreshing, we loved the tangy water. Also just fun to eat. The presentation of the dishes was beautiful not to mention taste phenomenal. The paneer tikka masala was our favorite dish we ordered. As for naan, definitely get the cheese naan. They don't mess around. Highly recommend this restaurant!

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!

OMG!! The best dine in experience in Montreal!! I was visiting for my birthday day & stopped at Rutba for dinner, However the host Sunpreet was so accommodating & made us feel so homely by suggesting the best food options!! The butter naan was the softest & so delicious !! Worth every minute we spent there!! Must recommended!

The restaurant is really good. Ordered Paneer tikka Masala, Chicken Masala, Garlic Naan & Paratha. The food was really good & the service as well. Loved the ambience, food & service. The Daal makhani at this place is also awesome, I have ordered it many times through UberEats.

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 👍🏻

Curry fish dish the fish was fresh & perfectly spiced. The Aloo Gobi had full heads of cauliflower & good portion, they didn't add potatoes as fillers but just right amount of potatoes. The naan bread was still hot when delivered large naan, it was fresh & went well in dipping the sauce from the meals. The basmati rice was cooked perfectly, not dry, the spice in the rice was just not over powering. Portions are good, enough for a 2nd meal. I recommend all the dishes & would order again.
