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!!!
💙 💜 😃 😊 😀

The food served is pre cooked & cold
Also the price is higher as per the servings
Don’t try
Initially I thought it’s because of online service but really they serve cold food

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.

the place is extremely homie. it makes you feel like you can just relax your mind & eat. there's not a lot of places that i'd be comfortable dining in alone, but this is one. food portions are generous & the taste is very good.

This was my go-to place when I was in college. Sometimes, the items can be a bit off but generally speaking it's very good. I truly do love their butterchicken though. So creamy!
