Review Summary

Sahib is widely regarded as a standout destination for Indian cuisine in the Montreal area, consistently praised for its rich, authentic flavors, beautifully presented dishes, and elegant yet cozy atmosphere. Many patrons highlight the exceptional quality of staples like butter chicken, tandoori dishes, and freshly baked naan, noting that the food is both flavorful and refined. The overall dining experience is frequently enhanced by attentive staff and welcoming owners who go out of their way to ensure guests feel valued, though some visitors have noted inconsistencies regarding portion sizes and occasional lapses in service standards. While the trivia nights and live entertainment add a unique touch to the vibrant environment, some feedback indicates a need for better linguistic inclusivity and more consistent attention to detail for larger groups. Despite minor critiques, the majority of guests consider this restaurant a must visit, especially for those seeking a memorable meal that balances high quality culinary craftsmanship with a warm and inviting setting.

I had a vegetarian meal at Sahib's that was flavorful & tasted authentic. Every dish in the meal tasted the best. This restaurant serves great food with a good ambience & friendly staff. It is very close to Montreal Airport.

Defenetly amazed by the quality. We were looking for a new place to try. & this place did not disappoint. We tried the samosa channa. You would not want to skip it for sure . For the meal we got Sahib Thali with butter chicken an also with lamb curry . Both were pretty amazing. We also tried Angeau Karhi Masala with Rice which was the best in my opinion. We were 5 I did not eat all the food but I tried all . Also the Toilet was very clean like spotless. Defenetly will go back

Amazing restaurant! The ambience is cozy, the service is friendly & quick & the food is exceptional. The owner even came to our table to ask how we were doing, if we liked the food & to light a small candle on the table.

The dhaba chicken curry, chicken 65, onion bhajia & lamb were all tender & flavorful. The naan was also great.

The drinks menu is quite long. The cocktails are delicious & not watered down, which is a rare find in restaurants in my opinion!

A must try if you are in the area

We're no experts in Indian cuisine, but my wife & I really enjoyed the meal here. We ordered the recommended dishes on the menu (with the green heart): Chicken 65, Shrimp Mollée, Dhaba Chicken, & Lamb curry. The lamb was my favorite, everything else was delicious as well.

Pricing for main platters is a bit high imo, as there are really not many blocks of meat for ~$20. The $10 appetizer of Chicken 65 has 3x the quantity of protein vs a main platter.

Great decor & excellent service.

Went to Sahib’s dorval location for dinner tonight. What a great experience. The food was delicious. We ordered a bunch of dishes. The chutney chicken was amazing. The service & ambiance is great. One of the nicer Indian restaurants in montreal. Prices are a bit high but the food won’t disappoint. Decor is fresh & light. The owner is on site welcoming guests & making sure everyone is enjoying their experience. I am Indian & i will attest the food is on par with top restaurants in India. I’ll be back!

I live an hour away from Sahib but it is worth the drive & more. I was first introduced to this restaurant a month ago by a friend, & immediately within a week I came back again with my family - I just couldn't stop thinking about the food. We had the aloo tikki & samosas to start, which were delicious & plenty filling on their own, but topped by a generous portion of equally tasty chickpeas, sauce & yogurt. At this point, I'd also ordered a mango lassi to wash it down, which was perfect - sweet & refreshing, but not overly sweet. I then had the thali which was well worth the price, & came with a bit of everything - tandoori chicken that was nice & juicy, lamb curry that was tender & rich, chickpea curry (one of my personal favourites), plenty of rice & naan (paired perfectly with both curries), & dessert to boot! Every one of the staff was incredibly friendly & welcoming as well, from the owner to the waiters to even the chef. One of the most comforting dining experiences I've had, & I couldn't recommend it more - I will definitely be coming back again soon!

This restaurant is by far my favourite Indian restaurant in Canada. The flavours are just incredible & very similar to a top restaurant back in India. The ambience just adds a cherry on top. I will for sure be returning to try new dishes.
