had the pleasure of dining at Rutba Restaurant recently, & I ordered the thali - it was fantastic! The portion size was generous, & the variety of dishes made it a delightful experience. Each dish was full of flavor, & you could really tell that a lot of thought went into the preparation.
The service was exceptional, thanks to the wonderful team of super ladies running the restaurant. They were so accommodating & made us feel right at home. Huge shoutout to the person who trained them because the level of service was top-notch. Nandita, in particular, was incredible - she answered all our questions & made sure we were well taken care of throughout our visit.
A nice perk of visiting on a Friday evening is the live gig by a local singer. It really added to the atmosphere & made the experience even more memorable.
I absolutely recommend Rutba to anyone looking for great food & even better service. Thanks again, Nandita, for making our visit so special!

We were travelling so we decided to visit this place. In my town we also have a new restaurant with same name so we thought that this is a older place & expanded in my town. It was not the case.
This place has two menus diff for summer & winter. Somehow website has only summer menu. Many dishes are not included.
Palak Paneer & Paneer Tikka Masala were not on menu. When requested they were willing to make it though. Also we requested Paneer Tikka Masala but based on the served vegetable it was kadai Paneer. Paneer had no coating & was not placed in tandoor. Kadai Paneer was good in taste though. Dal Rutba was almost Dal Makhani. It had a good flavours.
Service was good. Food was good. Harman was very good.

Best Indian food in Montreal!
A huge shout out to Sim, our fabulous server, & also to the Chef, who was very accommodating. Our table was difficult: lactose intolerance, gluten intolerance, vegetarian, & 2 other picky eaters... But Sim was so patient, plus the dishes were perfectly prepared & absolutely delicious. We'll definitely be back!
