So we come here often to eat, the food is always amazing & like the food we get in Chennai & India m. Reminds us of home. Ms.Yogyatha , Ms.Mamtha & Mr. Sathish especially have always made sure we are comfy, considering we have a baby with us. There is always extra love & hospitality here. The food is definitely worth trying. Will always be a regular. Great work to the front end & back end team.

I go out of my way to eat here everytime I visit Montreal. The best Chicken 65 & biriyani I've eaten in Canada. They also have lesser known Tamil dishes like murtabak. There's a plaza 1min walk away too where you can always get free parking easily.

Super belle expérience que nous avons répété deux fois jusqu'à présent. Le personnel est attentif & attentionné. On réponds a toutes nos questions sur le menu. Très grand choix végétarien. Les crêpes Dosa sont délicieuses. Formule apportez votre vin que j'apprécie toujours. Contrairement à plusieurs autres restaurants indien, les saveurs varient en intensité & en goût d'un plat à l'autre , pas comme si c'était du masala pour tous les plats! C'est notre nouvel endroit préféré en ville!!!
