Review Summary

Shaaz is widely recognized for offering authentic and flavorful Indian cuisine, with many patrons praising the quality of dishes like the biryanis, mandi, and various chicken specialties. While the food consistently earns high marks for its taste and generous portions, the overall dining experience remains divided due to inconsistent service and varying levels of restaurant cleanliness. Many visitors highlight the exceptionally friendly and attentive service provided by certain staff members, which creates a welcoming atmosphere, though others report frustrating wait times, disorganized operations, and occasional issues with food consistency or menu pricing. Despite these mixed reviews regarding operational efficiency and environment, the restaurant remains a popular destination for those seeking delicious, aromatic meals in the heart of the city.

If you're in Montreal & craving authentic Indian flavors, Shaaz is hands down one of the best Indian restaurants in the city.
The moment you walk in, the warm aroma of spices welcomes you like home.
I recently tried their vegetarian menu, & honestly, every bite was perfection.
Their Paneer 65 is a must-try - crispy on the outside, soft & flavorful inside.
The curries are rich, creamy, & perfectly balanced with spices.
The naan is soft, buttery, & fresh out of the tandoor.
The staff is friendly, attentive, & makes you feel like family.
Portions are generous, & prices are reasonable for the quality you get.
Whether you're vegetarian or non-vegetarian, there's something here for everyone.
Shaaz isn't just a restaurant - it's a delicious journey to India right in Montreal.

Just like the food from back home or even better, especially if you're from a South Indian household. Second time visiting the place & definitely coming back. The menu is huge, lots of options & flavours to try from. The service is great, fast. The chef & the waiters/waitresses are always available & ready to help. The items are exactly as described in the menu & so are the spice levels, but different & more authentic than the other places around. So, spending time enquiring about the items, their spice levels will definitely help.
