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.
I went there with three colleagues & it would be an understatement to say that the food was simply amazing! For 40$ we ate like there was no tomorrow & considering how large the meal was, the service was quite fast. The atmosphere was very friendly & pleasant as well! Easy 5 stars for me!
The ambiance was perfect for a romantic dinner with warm lighting & soft background music added a cozy touch. The service was attentive. The flavors were well-balanced, & the portion was just right. I ordered the Mutton Jafrani, which was perfectly cooked & beautifully presented.
Our experience at Sha'az yesterday was outstanding. The event went smoothly, & our guests couldn't stop raving about the delicious food, warm ambiance, & exceptional service. A special thank you to Arushi, whose incredible hospitality truly elevated the experience - she made everyone feel valued & well cared for. We are sincerely grateful for the excellent service, delicious cuisine, & the team's remarkable cooperation. We're already looking forward to hosting more events at Sha'az, & our guests are equally excited to return. Thank you for a flawless experience & your impeccable professionalism. You've earned all five stars from us!
Sha'az Indian Cuisine serves delicious, flavorful food that's worth the price. Although it took about 30 minutes to get our food due to the crowd, the cozy atmosphere & lovely wall art made the wait enjoyable.
I ordered Shahi Mutton Baryani with Afghani Chicken Tikka, both were super delicious. Place was awesome & the staff was cooperative. I think the amount of afghani tikka is less compared to the price😂. The order took a bit time & it can be understandable as there were a number of people. Overall experience was great & I hope in future will be same. Will be awesome if can increase the amount of Tikka😀😀😀

The owner was very nice, portions are very generous & the taste was exquisite. I was very happy with my dining experience at Shaaz. We were a big group & ordered the non veg mandi which was more than enough for us! Huge variety of meals, I wanted to try everything.
Amazing service, they kept coming back to ask us if we needed anything, the decorations & lighting weren't overwhelming yet looked amazing. The food was excellent, especially if you have a spicy tooth.

Top notch Indian food which has a menu that covers various Indian cuisines. It's a must visit. Special mention to Sandhya for the hospitality & for a really good experience. The ambience is superb as well.
Wonderful day after visiting Shaaz for my mother's birthday 🎉 she loved it all even the spicy dishes. The butter chicken was phenomenal with buttered up nuun bread. Sensational!❤️💙
Always amazing food & service. We travel multiple hours for Shaaz - & it never fails to impress. Everything from the paneer, the Hakka noodles, biriyani, chicken curry, & even the naan is exceptional.
