Thali offers a great value with generous portions and a mix of meat and vegetarian options, making it a solid choice for students, quick meals, or casual outings; many reviews praise tasty, well-balanced dishes like butter chicken, palak paneer, and dal, and naan and samosas are frequent favorites; the family-owned vibe, friendly and efficient service, and affordable pricing stand out, though some visits note occasional inconsistencies in taste or service, parking or ambiance issues, and a few meals that fall short (such as missing rice in a thali or a spoiled raita); takeout and delivery are praised for reliability, and the overall impression is that Thali is a dependable, inexpensive option for Indian food in Montreal, with regulars and newcomers alike leaving satisfied by flavor variety and value.
I usually come here to eat big tasty portions of food with my friends & we loved the place , but this time we found this servant her attitude was so mean & her facial expressions when preparing my order is so disappointing, also we got used to be served big portions of meat & rice , i would recommend this restaurant only if they changed the girl working there

'Very disappointing experience. The portion size was extremely small for the price, & the staff was not friendly or welcoming at all. I expected better service & more respect for customers. I would not recommend this restaurant The food tasted good, but the portion size was way too small for the price. Also, the service was not very friendly, which made the experience disappointing overall.
I went to the restaurant today & ordered non veg thali it was really delicious & the service was very good. The girl was very polite. I recommend this restaurant for everyone.
My friend recommend me this place & I'm so happy I discovered it! Amazing portions for the cheap thalis, 15$ for non vegetarian (2 meats, 1 veg) & 14$ for vegetarian (3 veg) exploding with aromas & spicy flavours. They are huge & come with rice & a huge fresh naan. The ladies who work there are super sweet!
I would recommend to get the lamb: it's sooo delicious that at my second time there I took twice of it for my non vegetarian thali that comes with 2 meats & 1 vegetable option that you can choose. YUM
I have been getting takeout from this place for 15+ years, have recommended it to many many people. Usually I go with my little dog, from the one that passed away & now with the new one. Unfortunately tonight I got pretty upset by the service of the lady & may not go back. 3 stars because I like the food & also liked the people until tonight, & to be fair.

If you want food that feels like a hug , this is the place. Gives vibes of old Indian restaurant but the food , feels soothing! Must recommend. Si vous voulez de la nourriture qui ressemble à un câlin, c'est l'endroit qu'il vous faut. Cela donne l'ambiance d'un vieux restaurant indien mais la nourriture est apaisante ! Je dois le recommander.

I had the pleasure of dining at this Indian restaurant, & I must say it was an exceptional experience! The dishes were delicious, rich in flavors, & prepared with care. The ambiance was warm & welcoming, & the service was outstanding. The staff was very attentive & made us feel right at home. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an authentic & flavorful culinary experience. I will definitely be coming back!
I recently stopped by for a vegetarian pakora, & I must say, it was absolutely delicious! The pakoras were perfectly crisp & packed with flavor, making for a delightful snack. I'm already looking forward to coming back & trying a full lunch soon. If the rest of the menu is anything like the pakora, I'm sure it'll be fantastic. Highly recommend giving this place a try!
Très bonne place pour manger indien au centre-ville. Beaucoup de choix de plats différents, bonne nourriture avec beaucoup de goûts & service agréable & rapide! Je recommande a tous les amateurs de bouffe indienne.

Had a great experience. Everything was very fresh & delicious. Must try Indian restaurant in town. Specially there samosas are best in whole Montreal. Will visit again for sure & will recommend everybody near & dear.
I love this place plain & simple. Had to leave a review. The food is excellent, the staff is very kind & friendly not to mention fast with your order. & the prices are extremely reasonable in this economy. I just tried their butter chicken for the 1st time & it was out of this world. If you're reading this, definitely try it for yourself. Also recommend the Samosas in general. So yummy!
Too bad the place is looking so worn. Super busy place, fabulous food, with generous portions. The crew was friendly & professional & kept the service rolling - great job staff. Recommend.
The prices are so affordable, beyond what what I've excepted for the good quality & taste this restaurant provided us.
Quick service.
Original menu.
I highly recommend it whether it is to dine in or a takeout.
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).
