Review Summary

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.

BEST INDIAN RESTAURANT IN MTL!

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

The place itself is not the greatest looking but the food is really good. We did order a thali & we could choose four options from the buffet. All the vegetarian ones were flavorful, good amount of spicyness, basically everything you want. The fresh garlic Naan was delicious as well as the fresh Mango Lassy. I will definitely come back when I am around.

Best Indian food in Montreal! I know the place since over 15 years, it's legendary! Amazing tasty food, generous portions, low prices, spicy just perfect, all their dishes are delicious, my favorites are the butter chicken, palak paneer, lamb curry, their naan & rice, gulab jamun, & tandoori chicken! But really, everything is excellent! I love how the taste of dishes is constant & always great, that you can count that it is always good, also not oily. The family is so nice, polite, & makes it a great experience! I like how it's not a service at the table, more like a buffet that they serve you, nothing fancy & friendly ambiance! A must if you visit downtown Montreal! Don't miss it!

The most authentic Indian restaurant I've seen in Montréal. Everything is superb. Finger lickin good in every sense of the word. Melt in the mouth naan, mildly spicy almost oil free curries. Loved it!

Very delicious but also veeery spicy. Many vegetarian & vegan options. I couldn't eat naan (gluten allergy) in my dish so they gave me extra rice instead. Prices are pretty affordable. People working here are super nice & patient. The restaurant was very clean & cozy, not many seats but we found a place. I will be coming back.

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!
