Went to grab lunch with a friend. Very convenient & quick. The food is great but I would've expected the curry to be a bit more spicy. However, the service is impeccable & the portion sizes are generous. I would come back again!

4.0

A nice Indian restaurant near Guy station where you can grab a quick bite. They have a small menu & some of them are my favorite dishes like chhole bhature, samosa chat, samosa, & fried rice. They also offer Thali, but I'm not a big fan of it. Desserts are okay. The service is quick, & the seating area is small but does the job.

Possibly the best samosas I've enjoyed in Montreal. Good value for money, food was informally good & fresh. Definitely not the prettiest place, so do takeout if it's date night, but great for a quick bite.

This place is unique in both its butter chicken dish & vegetarian buffet choices. Definitely delicious for the price you pay. At less than 10 dollars a meal incl. Tax the food is flavourful & you will finish your plate!

A slightly larger portion of meat would probably be appreciated in terms of how many pieces you are given per choice.

However, having dined here many times, I would recommend it. Quick, yummy & filling (to a point).
