Review Summary

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.

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.

The place was out of palak, saag, lassi & many other ingredients. The food was extremely spicy & we all had an upset stomach after the lunch.

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.

Best Mutton Mandi in town & I'm certainly coming back for milk pudding, too! Staff is friendly & the ambience is pretty authentic.

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 was missing Indian street style food since few days. Thought of trying something spicy & ordered spicy burnt garlic noodles & dragon gobi. Vah! What a great satisfying meal it was! It was some of the best tasting Indian food I have had lately in Montreal. Kudos to their head chef & other staff.

I am happy that I ate good food despite coming late at night. I was particularly happy with the spicy garlic gobi & burnt garlic noodles. They do have vegan options. I would surely recommend to try this place.
