Thali draws praise for flavorful, affordable Indian food with generous portions and quick service, with standout items including butter chicken, shahi paneer, palak paneer, lamb curry, samosas, naan, and hearty thali platters that many consider among the best around. The dining experience is described as unpretentious, satisfying, and versatile for takeout or dine-in, supported by consistently friendly and efficient staff and good value for the money. While the fare is widely appreciated, some reviews note occasional inconsistency in taste from day to day, a few dishes that fall short or arrive with issues, and remarks about ambiance, cleanliness, or parking. Overall, Thali is seen as a dependable, tasty option for fast Indian fare that many patrons return to year after year, a go‑to for big portions, variety, and approachable prices.
Got a vegetarian thali to share with my girlfriend. Lots of food, definitely worth the price. It's buffet style so quick service but you can't make any adjustments to the food. But food is very tasty as is. Atmosphere is okay. For a quick tasty cheap meal I'd come again.

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 butter chicken was very tasty to me. Also had their beef but the soup of it felt watery. Pani puri was not good at all. I thought the place & people were good until the guy with the big eyes kept looking at my female friends' bare legs as she was wearing a skirt. I kept wondering why he kept looking at my table, specifically towards her. Then we were leaving & he kept his gaze on her legs. Very uncomfortable. That moment was when we will never come back again despite the authenticity it brought & the good meals (aside from the pani puri & the watery beef).
The atmosphere is definetely not good, but I see people enjoying the food instead, which is fair enough. The food itself was of great taste. Veg thali was delightful & tasty.

All food is very tasty , service is very good & staf also very cooperative as well. I would suggest everyone to visit this restaurant with your family & friends .
Every time I visit, I notice a Gujarati student from Concordia University who is excellent at communicating with us. He puts a lot of heart into his work. Overall, the food is very tasty!
I went to school with the 2 brothers.
After eating there today, after almost 30 years, for the first time.
With 2 other friends from school also.
My mind was racing. I ran into a very talented lawyer, who lives maybe a block away, who enjoyed the food there too.
After tasting the food, I remembered how a bunch of people had mentioned back in the day the 2 boys mom cooked very good food.
I remembered that lawyer saying the same.
Imagine? After tasting the food, I remembered all the stuff people told me about!
That's how much I enjoyed it.
I wish I had gone sooner.
Honestly, I'm a big guy. For the price
(& I was hungry) it's alot of food.
I ate around 2, it's 8pm now. I'm still full.
Definitely value for your money.
IMO very tasty.
Sending love & blessings to the Ahuja family, thank you for sharing your family's food!!!
💙 💜 😃 😊 😀
