Shaaz offers a wide range of Indian dishes with authentic flavors and generous portions, with standout options like Telangana spicy chicken biryani, mutton paaya, kattapa veg biryani, and mandi that many reviewers call must-tries. Flavours are often described as authentic, well balanced, and tasty, with starters such as dragon chicken and paneer dishes receiving high marks. Generous portions and good value for money are recurring positives, making Shaaz a popular choice for families and groups. Service and atmosphere are praised for warmth and attentiveness, though several reviews note inconsistent execution during busy periods, slow service, and occasional order errors. Some main courses have fallen short at times, with issues like soggy rice, undercooked elements, or dishes not meeting expected authenticity, while starters and certain dishes are repeatedly described as standout. Cleanliness and maintenance, including bathrooms and tables, have been called out in a few visits, while overall the ambiance remains inviting. Overall, Shaaz is considered one of the better Indian restaurants in Montreal, especially for biryani and mandi, with room for improvement in consistency and service.
The chicken 65 is my favorite!! It is so rich. The species have a perfect balance. The gravy is so tasty. I also like the Keshimir chai. The flavor & the pink color make me feel happy.
Sukhwinder was very pleasant & attentive. The food was excellent, generous portions, very flavorful & tasty. The only comment on the atmosphere was the music was a bit loud.
We recently were travelling from Toronto to Montreal & had the pleasure of eating veg biryani, dal makhani & kadahi panner here. The food is so tasty. Ambience is good & it has a lot of seating space. Would go again.
Not gonna lie, one of the greatest Indian restaurants I've been so far. I did order a Paneer Biryani & it was a flavor bomb. Whoever is cooking the food in the kitchen absolutely knows his job. Also the Mango Lassy was smooth & tasty as you would expect it. Thanks for also for the great & kind service.
Went to Shaaz yesterday to celebrate friend's bday. Tried their Paneer65 family mandi, tandoori malai chaap, mango lassi & Andra junnu. the family mandi was just incredible - huge portions & really tasty. The staff were just amazing, especially Neha. Her food recommendations were spot-on, & she & Sukhvinder even surprised us by singing'Happy Birthday'! It was such a sweet touch & made the night extra special. Honestly, we had such a great time.
It's my fourth time that I eat there & it's always the same tasty food & good service I love the Indian food & I think that it's the best restaurant that can a non Indian person like me discover the real traditional food of this amazing country ❤️thanks a lot

Alot of choices in the menu! Tried the Mango Magic drink, would have been nicer if it were colder. Otherwise shared 3 dishes, one chicken curry, one mutton bryani & a cheese paneer, all pretty tasty & a bit spicy! We added garlic naan bread which was good.
It was our first time here & was little hard choosing from their extensive menu options. Being vegetarians, we usually don't get to taste super flavorful Indian dishes in restaurants here in Montreal. To our surprise, this time every dish we ordered was so tasty & bursting with flavors. Spice levels too were up to our satisfaction. We will definitely go back & recommend Shaaz to our friends & colleagues.
I have to say that food is very spicy there. I thought level 2 in the middle would be an in between but that was a level 5/5 spiciness at other restaurants BUT food was very tasty & delicious. I had no problem with the service, our waitresses were great, attentive & suggested a mango drink for the spicy which helped so I definitely recommend it. It was also quite tasty, like mango yogurt. I like the decor too, just if it were my restaurant I would get light dimmer's, it feels like you're walking in a bright hospital hall.
