Review Summary

Thali is widely regarded as a go-to spot for authentic and affordable Indian cuisine, frequently praised for its generous portions, fresh naan, and consistent flavors. While many patrons highlight the butter chicken, lamb, and vegetarian thali options as standout choices, the experience is often defined by the friendly and accommodating service provided by the staff. Although the restaurant is highly valued for its value and taste, some feedback suggests that the physical space could benefit from renovations and increased cleanliness, and while service is typically efficient, occasional inconsistencies in food quality and staff interactions have been noted by a minority of visitors.

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

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.
