Thali propose une représentation authentique des traditions culinaires indiennes à travers une sélection diversifiée de plats régionaux servis dans un format épuré. Le menu privilégie les profils d'épices prononcés et les ingrédients aromatiques comme la cardamome, le cumin et la coriandre fraîche pour rehausser chaque préparation. Les convives découvrent une variété de currys protéinés, d'accompagnements de légumes savoureux et de pains plats fraîchement cuits qui définissent l'essence de ce style culinaire régional. Chaque élément du repas reflète une attention rigoureuse aux techniques de préparation traditionnelles et à la superposition équilibrée des saveurs complexes. La conception intérieure reflète cet accent sur l'efficacité et la présentation directe des plats pour une expérience gastronomique sans détour. En mettant en avant des ingrédients essentiels et des méthodes de cuisson cohérentes, l'établissement offre une exploration claire de la riche culture alimentaire indienne pour tous les clients.
Thali est largement considéré comme une destination incontournable pour savourer une cuisine indienne authentique et abordable, souvent louée pour ses portions généreuses, son pain naan frais et la constance de ses saveurs. Bien que de nombreux clients mettent en avant le poulet au beurre, l'agneau et les thalis végétariens comme des choix de prédilection, l'expérience est régulièrement soulignée par le service amical et attentionné du personnel. Si l'établissement est très apprécié pour son excellent rapport qualité-prix, certains avis indiquent que les lieux gagneraient à être rénovés et mieux entretenus, et bien que le service soit généralement efficace, quelques irrégularités dans la qualité des repas et l'accueil ont parfois été signalées.
I recently visited Thali Cuisine Indienne & had both the vegetarian & non-vegetarian thalis.
Vegetarian Thali:
Onion Curry: 10/10 ⭐ - Absolutely delicious & full of flavor.
Baingan Bharta: 9/10 - Smoky, well-seasoned, & very enjoyable.
Palak Paneer: 7/10 - Good, but could have had a richer flavor.
Served with rice & naan.
Non-Vegetarian Thali:
Chicken Curry: 10/10 ⭐ - The standout dish; perfectly spiced & very flavorful.
Butter Chicken: 7/10 - Decent, though it didn't stand out compared to the chicken curry.
Lentils (Dal): 7/10 - Good, but fairly average.
Served with rice & naan.
I'd definitely recommend this restaurant, especially for the onion curry, chicken curry, & baingan bharta. If you enjoy authentic Indian thalis with generous portions, it's well worth a visit. Overall rating: 8.8/10.
If you want quick Indian , went there 4 times. The value is unbeatable. For $15-17 you get a huge plate with rice, lentil soup, naan, & three curries & meal is filling. The butter chicken was really good & the bread too was fresh. Actually the food was consistent all the time. The place needs to be more cleaned, but still 4 stars.
My friend recommend me this place & I'm so happy I discovered it! Amazing portions for the cheap thalis, 15$ 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
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.
Amazing! I would rate it 6 stars if I could. My friend & I both got platters of about 2 kinds of meats, rice, naan, a veggie dish & a lentil dish + samosas, & it was incredibly delicious!
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.
So, we've now sampled the entire menu over a few weeks.
& the verdict is out: it is very meh. But thankfully they aren't the only brown spot in the area anymore.
The naan is somehow burnt & raw. Like thawed uncooked chapati.
Rice is nothing to write home about, but edible.
The veggies & legumes are all just fine.
The desserts…. a-ok.
The beef tastes like bark.
The lamb is ordinary.
The chicken is very good.
But the butter chicken? I suspect their sauce's secret is Kraft Dinner powder.
It used to be very good (many years ago). Not sure what happened! We would order often in the past & were never dissatisfied, what a shame.
Only thing worth something is the samosas! For 1.75$, they are actually very good & filling. Ideal for broke students!
I'm giving an extra star for the very clever comment replies that the management leaves! Pure snotty gold! But seriously, don't go there. We have so many alternatives now.
