Nice Indian place for dine in , they had great menu like Rasam, dosa, appetizers for travellers, we have been out of home for a week & was looking for simple home cooked food, this menu totally satisfied our needs with rasam & chicken 65, we also tried their dosa it was good , the biryani was just mediocre for us & rest of the dishes we tried were really great, we could see lots of people coming & having food from locals, that shows the food is really good here!!! The chicken noodles we tried was also good.

One of the very few authentic Indian restaurants in Montreal. Everything is good but their idlis are simply top notch 👌 😍 Quantity of the food can be increased slightly though 😋

THE place for typical Indian food. We've been eating there since years introduced by a couple of Indian 🇮🇳 friends & since this is our reference! Our best are the Gobi 65, The fried schrimps & the samosa chat! The fresh naan is the best The service is fast very friendly & attentive We are returning regularly, this became our comfort food place
