Tula stands out as a vegan Indian restaurant in Montreal where every dish feels fresh, balanced, and thoughtfully crafted.

The atmosphere is calm and zen, the service attentive and friendly, and the team’s passion for food and hospitality shines through in every visit. Brunch and dinner options, homemade yogurts and other thoughtful touches create a welcoming and satisfying dining experience.
Abhi was wonderfully welcoming, & the food was excellent. We enjoyed the discovery dinner & would highly recommend it. The brunch menu also looked fantastic - something to try on our next visit. Thank you, Abhi!
Was at Montreal during the weekend & went to Tula. It felt like home cooked food. Abhishek takes time to talk to his clients & explain the dishes. Each one is better than the other & you want to try all of them. From the biryani, Butter chicken to the Thali there is something for everyone. I had the brunch Thali & went next day for the biryani. Was simply amazing & I will go back for sure. There are few restaurants that cater to gluten free & this one has most options. I still have the taste of the delicious food

In a city with no shortage of Indian cuisine, Tula stands in a class of its own. Abhi's menu is a thoughtful exploration of India's rich vegetarian heritage, artfully crafted to showcase the nuance & complexity of regional flavors. This is a departure from the familiar, offering a genuine taste of'satvik' tradition-food that is pure, balanced, & incredibly flavorful without being heavy. For those seeking an authentic & elevated Indian dining experience, I cannot recommend Tula highly enough.
We celebrated my wife's birthday at Tula, & what an experience it was! Every vegan dish was bursting with authentic Indian flavors, from the vibrant Snacks to the comforting Brunch Thali's. The mango lassi was creamy & refreshing, while the masala chai warmed the soul. But the real highlight was Abhishek-the most gracious host, whose warmth & world-class hospitality made us feel at home & turned a simple dinner into a celebration we'll never forget. A true hidden gem!
Last night, I was treated to an incredible meal here.
Our servers Abhi were exceptional, & we were very well cared for. Every detail of our menu was explained in detail so we always had a clear sense of what we were enjoying.
The food was outstanding! So many delectable bites of contrasting & complementary flavours with amuse-bouches & mignardises on top of the menu. My compliments to the chef & kitchen staff for creating an incredible menu. Their Vegan Mango Lassi is.to die for.
You won't be disappointed by such a gracious & welcoming staff & meal!

TULA translates to'Balanced' & that's exactly what this restaurant is all about. An extraordinary culinary experience - five stars all the way!! Such homely preparation, felt light yet tasty. Highly recommended for wholesome & scrumptious food lovers!
Food:
This isn't your typical Indian restaurant serving the usual paneer, butter naan & Jira rice. If that's what you're after, you might want to look elsewhere. But if you're seeking something truly unique, this place delivers in every way. The menu is thoughtfully curated, reflecting genuine passion & care in every dish. We liked it so much that we ate there 3 times during our 3 day stay in Montreal. Here are the things we tried & absolutely loved. I normally like to rank dishes but all dishes came #1.
- Koshimbir - a refreshing salad
- Grandma's Special Curry - reminded me of a version of avial
- Chapati - very home made feel
- Ragda Patties - yummy chat
- Tomato Soup - so good, my daughter loved it
- Gulkand Panna Cotta
- lunch thali - comes with 4 curries, 1 salad, rice, roti & dessert.
- jackfruit biriyani - this was out of the world.
- Burger - crispy & delicious
- Bombay sandwich - we made this to go & ate it after about 8 hours & it was scrumptious
- Weekend Brunch Thali - pongal, sambhar, chutney, desset. I dont know how he gets such diverse food SO right
- Lentil idlis - they had shredded carrots & green beans. So thoughtful about making healthy food.
- Ragi dosa - this is not in the menu but the owner surprised us with it. SO good.
- Mango lassi - tasted even better than the dairy mango lassi. This was made with coconut milk yogurt that they make it themselves. I mean talk about the incredible amount of detail & care poured into creating it.
- Hibiscus & ginger drink -
- Chai - this came with the cutest sugar container on the side (see picture). Owner said he got them Bali when he was travelling.
Host, Service & Place:
Exceptional service & hospitality! We arrived about 30 minutes before closing, yet were welcomed with genuine kindness. There was no rush - we were encouraged to take our time exploring the menu. The host, Abhishek, patiently walked us through each item, clearly passionate about the food & the experience he offers. What stood out most was - he even recommended other restaurants in town that he personally likes. How often do you see a restaurant owner do that? It was clear he is not running the business just for the money. Once we placed our order, the food arrived promptly & was absolutely delightful. It is a beautiful, boutique restaurant. The interior is beautifully designed with tasteful decor that creates a calming & inviting ambiance.
Wonderful rich delicious Southern Indian vegan fare. Wonderful service! Abhi is a lovely person full of warmth & joy. I couldn't recommend it more highly. I loved the music in there.
We had an incredible dining experience that brought back so many memories of home. The jackfruit biryani was absolutely mind-blowing-easily the best biryani we've had in Montreal! The coconut curry was bursting with flavor & warmth-it tasted just like something made in a home kitchen, full of love & nostalgia.
A special shout-out to Abhishek, who was an exceptional host. Despite us arriving just 30 minutes before closing, he welcomed us with a big smile & made sure we felt right at home. He suggested the best dishes that could still be freshly prepared, & everything exceeded our expectations.
Highly recommended for anyone craving truly authentic Indian flavors. We're already looking forward to our next visit!

Abhi, tu es le magicien de la nourriture délicieuse & nutritive! Merci à toi & à toute ton équipe de nous servir avec tant de dévotion & de gentillesse. Manger tes plats est littéralement une expérience de méditation profonde qui fait danser chaque cellule de notre corps de pur bonheur.
Merci, master Yogi! À très bientôt.
NAMASTE 🙏🏼
Best place in Montreal to eat Indian vegan & gluten free food !! Abhi was so friendly & so nice, & I spent such a good moment in Tula. This is a must try in Montreal & the best Indian food I ever tasted. Everything is very healthy, & spices are very well balanced. Thank you so much !!
Wow, énorme coup de coeur pour ce restaurant. De la nourriture indienne/ayurvédique saine, délicieuse & vibrante. Vraiment à découvrir. Mention spéciale au propriétaire, Abhi, dont l'amour pour ses clients se ressent dans chaque détail. Son attention, sa générosité & sa passion transparaissent jusque dans les assiettes! 🙏🏼 ❤?
Wow. Je n'ai pas de mots pour décrire l'expérience inoubliable que j'ai vécu à Tula. Tout était parfait, la nourriture, le service & que dire du proprio, Abhi. Il a vraiment à coeur le bien-être de ses clients & cela transparaît jusque dans ses plats. La nourriture est de qualité supérieure, vegan, saine & exquise. Le « poulet » au beurre ainsi que le lassi sont définitivement à essayer.
Je recommande à 2000% ce restaurant, si vous hésitez à y allez, qu'attendez-vous ? C'est l'endroit que vous cherchez si vous voulez les meilleurs plats indiens/ayurvédiques.
Merci encore Abhi 🌈🙏☀?

Amazing restaurant, & perfect for vegans & celiacs! Beautiful ambiance, lovely owners, & the best meal of my life! Everything is homemade & vegan & 99% of the menu is gluten free, & many of the recipes come from Abhi's grandmother. Absolutely delicious. They even have perfect gluten free chapati. Abhi (one of the owners) eschews gluten so it's very safe & the GF substitutes are beautiful. We had the potato & chickpea appetizer, the vegan chicken tikka masala, the black chickpea & black eyed pea ghassi (based on his grandmother's recipe!), jeera rice, gluten free chapati, & the rose panna cotta, which was like fairy food. Also had kombucha & tried the mango lassi with alcohol. Cannot recommend this place enough!
We loved this restaurant so much. Every single item on the menu from mango lassi to vegan chicken to thali was flavorful & fresh. I couldn't believe everything was vegan & tasted so good (as most of the vegan places I've been to in the past have only had a few good items). The masala chai just sealed the deal after I devoured that yummy Thali. My 14 month old also went'mmmhhh' with every bite of the roti & tofu curry. I wish Abhishek (the owner) loads of good luck & success in expansion of his business & remain hopeful that he will consider bringing some of his vegan wisdom over the border to greater Boston area (we were visiting Montreal from here).
He is a very good host & paid attention to each & every one of his customers individually even though the restaurant is busy! He shared stories from his own life & listened to ours & made this experience so memorable that my son wouldn't want to leave his side lol.
Already looking forward to visiting Tula again when we do back to Montreal
We've been to Tula countless times & are impressed every single time. The food is always delicious, amazing authentic flavours made with fresh & real ingredients. The service is impeccable, especially the owner Abhi; who always makes you feel welcome & at home. We highly recommend Tula, it is one of our all time favourite restaurants.
