Customers describe Salateen as a welcoming, family-friendly spot with a broad menu of fresh, flavorful halal Indian-Pakistani dishes and great value, with standout items like biryani, haleem, kebabs, chicken karahi, nihari, and garlic naan receiving frequent praise for bold yet balanced flavors and generous portions. The Ramadan or iftar buffet is often highlighted as a highlight, and the staff are repeatedly noted as friendly, attentive, and accommodating, contributing to a warm atmosphere and quick service. While the majority of reviews are glowing, a few mention inconsistencies such as a chicken biryani that was oil-heavy and lacking aroma, and concerns about packaging and oil separation in some dishes, suggesting room for tweaks in presentation and oil management. Overall, Salateen is viewed as one of the top options in Montreal for flavorful, affordable, and satisfying Indian-Pakistani fare.
I was flabbergasted by how good their lentil soup - it may have been the best I ever tasted, & I've tasted a boatload of those.
Their fish pakoras were also some of the best ! The quantity of those were a bit less than other restaurants though to be fair I dont remember how much I paid for them though it may have been fairly priced. The accompanying minty spicy yougurt sauce was so good, I kept dipping my naan in it & applied it to other dishes.
Their Lamb was so delicious, it was incredible. I loved the amount of vegetables, the spices, the tenderness & the overall flavour. The stew/sauce was a little too oily for my taste though.
Their rice was perfect & not too oily.
Their Garlic Naan was very crispy & delicious. it was a bit on the fluffy side & I would have preferred it if it had a stronger garlic flavour but it was still excellent.
We tried the tandori shrimp & that thing was top-notch. It was so flavourful & it came with lots of vegetables sizzling a hot iron cast, it was delicious.
I asked to not have coriander in the food & they were very accommodating, I much appreciated that !
Good experience! The food was delicious & flavorful. The staff was friendly & attentive, making us feel truly welcome. The ambiance was warm & inviting, perfect for a relaxed meal with family I highly recommend this place
Ate the Lamb Jalfrezi & Tandoori Fish (served steaming on a hot stone) both were delicious. I often come here with my mother, everything we tried was delicious & the portions leave you full. Definitely our favorite desi restaurant in Parc ex & it is Halal. I recommend without hesitation 10/10.
A good Halal restaurant, We tasted the lamb biryani, the chicken biryani & the non-vegetarian Thali. They were all delicious & full of taste. The owner was so welcoming & kind. A great culinary experience.

Great service first of all. The owner Hussein as well as their other staff are super polite & accommodating & will gladly entertain you even if you arrive at closing time which is already the latest hour for any restaurant in their vicinity. As for the food, I haven't tried too many options but I always love their Lamb curry with plain & garlic naan. They also have a variant of chicken/ beef chow mein which is adapted to the South Asian palate & isn't quite authentic. Nonetheless, I find it quite good personally & besides, there aren't any halal option for Chinese cuisine in MTL either that I know of. Other than that, there are Middle Eastern visitors there as well who quite enjoy their biryani apparently, from the feedback I got when I asked them. Their entire menu is very reasonably priced too. Highly recommended for late night South Asian food.

First of all the food was delicious, We had the butter lamb, garlic naan, chicken byriani & samosas, everything was fresh & super tasty, the service was fast & super polite, the ambiance was calm. I will go back for sure
I had once an unsuccessful date here! 😏 But thanks to that, I got to eat their amazing food & become a regular whenever I'm in the neighbourhood. Their Haleem is really tasty & their butter lamb I tried today is really delicious. Do not let the idea of mixture of cuisines they offer throw you off or make you think because it doesn't focus on one only cuisine it's not good. I have not tried their other Asian inspired plates. But the Pakistani/Indian dishes are really good. They are very kind & caring also & welcome you with smile & open arms.
