For the lack of Kerala restaurants in Montreal, was glad to see a Tamil place step up & do a sadya for Onam. Didn't expect it to be close to what we have in Kerala in terms of number of items & whatnot, but whatever they had for the sadya, they did it really well. The varutharacha sambar & jackfruit payasam deserves special mention. Had only been there once before for dosas, will be going back for more. Thanks team Thanjai, for making my Onam. Means a lot when you're far from home.

Discovered this place after 4 months in Montreal. Was homesick for South Indian food. The rice thali here took us back straight to India; authentic taste of Tamil Nadu! Generous veggie portions. Good ambience as well as service.
