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.

Very disappointing delivered meal. We didn't like the butter chicken (tasteless), the lamb (tough meat), naan bread (was not well done), etc.

Thali is one of my favorite Indian places for a quick meal. The food is always ready, all you have to do is choose what you want. This is a family owned restaurant, the flavours are authentic & feel like it was home made. The only issue is the consistency, the food can taste slightly different from time to time depends on who is the chef on that day.
It is very cheap compared to other places in Montreal, for 15$ you can get a big plate with rice, lentil soup, naan, & 3 curries of your choice. My go to are the butter chicken & the palak paneer.

One of the great Indian meal that i ate in my life. I sent there each time when i go to Montréal. Really good service too. What a nice nice tiny restaurant close to St-Catherine. A service in french could be complete for a perfect note.

Le meilleur resto indien a Montréal. Super service tout sourire & attentionné. Super petit resto près de Ste-Catherine. Un service en français complèterait pour une note parfaite.
