Great food & service. Had the best soya chaap, highly recommend. Bengali fish curry was tasty & light. Special shoutout to Ash, our server who was attentive & friendly.
Je recommande fortement de prendre « Le combo » pour découvrir plusieurs plats indiens. C'était tellement savoureux ! Trop bonne découverte, j'y retournerai !

Food is super flavourful, every dish was excellent. Second time I come & it does not disappoint. It's also a really cute place, the decor is cozy & pretty. & the service is excellent. 10/10 service from Sim who was very kind & helpful with selecting menu items :) highly recommend.
I don't know how to fully express how good it was. The taste was perfect, exactly like the food from my hometown. The servers were incredibly kind & sweet, which made the experience even better. I absolutely loved the overall experience & would definitely recommend it as one of the best Indian restaurants in Canada. ( I ordered Chicken Gilafi Kebab 10/10, malai kofta curry 11/10 & Gulab jamun with icecream 9/10)
Went here twice & three days. Great selection, not too expensive, & great vegetarian options. No wait for a table. Easy to make a reservation. Recommend the okra curry.

Nous avons découvert ce resto indien de la « Main » par hasard, car c'était un des seuls ouverts après 22 h un dimanche soir. Tant mieux pour nous, car nous avons été ravis ! Nous avons pris du poulet au beurre, un biryani à l'agneau & des nans maison... tout était délicieux, frais & parfaitement préparé, comme si on était reçus par des amis. Mention spéciale également pour le service, assuré par Sim, charmante & souriante. Bref, une réussite sur toute la ligne, avec des prix très raisonnables compte tenu de la qualité de la nourriture & de l'accueil ! Chaudement recommandé par toute notre « gang » !
5/5 Stars - Hands down the best Indian food I've had in Montréal!
I recently visited this incredible Indian restaurant with my family, & it was an absolute standout experience from start to finish. The chef here is clearly very experienced & passionate - you can taste the authentic touch in every single dish. It's like having a master cook prepare a home-style feast with perfect balance of spices & flavors.
The naan was phenomenal - fresh from the tandoor, soft, fluffy, slightly charred on the edges, & buttery in the best way possible. We ordered garlic naan & plain, & both disappeared in minutes because they were that good! Paired perfectly with the curries.
Speaking of the curries, they were superb - rich, aromatic, & full of depth without being overwhelmingly spicy (though you can ask for more heat if you like). We tried the butter chicken, paneer tikka masala, & a lamb curry - all were flavorful, creamy where they should be, & the spices were layered beautifully. The portions were generous, & everything tasted fresh & made with care.
The atmosphere was warm & welcoming, making it ideal for a family outing. The staff was friendly & attentive, & they made sure our kids enjoyed their milder options too. No rush, comfortable seating, & the whole place felt inviting.
This is easily the best Indian restaurant I've come across in Montréal - authentic, delicious, & worth every penny. We had such a great time that we're already planning our next visit. Highly recommend to anyone craving real Indian flavors! Will definitely be coming back soon. ❤?
Loved this Indian spot-4 stars for killer butter chicken, fluffy garlic naan, speedy friendly service, & unbeatable value! Bursting with flavor, though the wait was a tad long on a busy night. Still highly recommend for a tasty night out!
Merci pour ce déjeuner ! Superbe adresse, le butter chicken est vraiment trop bon. Merci à Simran pour son service accueillant & chaleureux!

Nice friendly servers, food came very fast, it was very tasty, I just wish it was more real Indian spicy lol but I understand people here are not used to, definitely recommend it & will come back again
Le restaurant est chaleureux, l'ambiance agréable. Le service est juste formidable, c'est tellement agréable de se faire service avec sourire & plaisir. Le repas, délicieux, tous ont aimé. Je recommande vivement, on y retournera certainement pour tester d'autres plats.
Friends introduced me to this great Indian restaurant downtown. The food was excellent - lots of unique & flavorful dishes you don't always see. The service was friendly, attentive & very welcoming. Definitely a place I'll be going back to. Highly recommend!
