Quelle expérience nous avons eu en mangeant au Tula ce soir! & que dire du service exceptionnel offert par notre cher serveur ♡Abhi♡ (j'espère que j'écris son nom correctement). Les plats sont savoureux & remplis d'amour, il est évident que les gens qui travaillent dans ce restaurant sont passionnés & fiers de ce qu'ils font. Nous étions avec notre fille de 15 mois qui a adoré son repas & surtout le serveur qui jouait avec elle.:-) Allez-y sans hésiter! Un nouveau must pour nous!
This is the BEST Indian food you will find in Montreal & even better that it is 100% vegan. The owner of the restaurant, Abhishek is so passionate, remembers mine & my family's previous meal orders & makes excellent recommendations based off of what we liked the last time. We always feel so welcome. With the excellent food & service, I can't recommend this restaurant enough. Wish I could rate Tula more than 5 stars.

Genuinely the best vegan & gluten free food I have ever eaten. Every dish is so special & unique, you can tell a lot of love & thought has went into the menu. The owner Abhi radiates kindness & is clearly very passionate about his food & ensuring his customers are happy. Such a wonderful experience for gluten free & vegan folks (& everyone else for that matter because it is that good). TULA is the GOAT!
Tula in Montreal is a must-try fusion restaurant, especially for its jackfruit biryani. This dish is best enjoyed after an hour, allowing the rice to absorb all the flavors, enhancing its taste. The owner, Abhishek Arun, is incredibly friendly & passionate about his food, making every visit special. The atmosphere is warm & inviting, perfect for enjoying their unique vegan offerings. Tula is truly a gem where everyone should experience the delightful blend of flavors & exceptional service
I had the pleasure of dining at Tula with my wife twice during our stay in Montreal, & I must say, it exceeded our expectations both times. Tula offers a variety of healthy & flavorful vegan dishes that truly stand out. Their thali, in particular, is a must-try. It showcases an array of flavors from different regions of India, offering a rich & diverse culinary experience. Abhishek, took the time to explain each item included in the thali, which added a personal touch to our meal. What impressed us the most was how well-prepared the food was, with minimal oil, yet packed with flavor. It had a comforting, home-cooked feel, reminding us of traditional meals we've had back home. We also appreciated the ambiance & service, both of which made our visits even more enjoyable. Whether you're vegan or not, Tula is a great place to experience wholesome, satisfying food.
This vegan restaurant is a true standout, offering a wide range of flavorful options that are sure to impress. Abhishek, the owner, was very kind & took the time to thoroughly explain the menu to us. We decided to try the plant-based chicken tikka masala & vegetable biryani, & both dishes exceeded our expectations. The flavors were bold & authentic, with the perfect balance of spices. The food was so well-prepared, it was hard to believe it was entirely vegan. The warm atmosphere & attentive service made the experience even better. We'll definitely be coming back for more.
A Hidden Gem in Montreal's Vegan Scene - Bringing the Flavors of Maharashtra & the Konkan Coast In a city as culturally diverse as Montreal, it's no surprise that the food scene is a rich tapestry of global flavors. However, stumbling upon a humble vegan spot that not only caters to plant-based enthusiasts but also brings the authentic taste of India's Maharashtra state & the coastal Konkan region feels like discovering a hidden treasure. This little gem, lovingly curated by its passionate host, Mr. Abhishek, is one such find. Located in a quiet corner, this vegan joint may not boast flashy decor or a high-end setting, but the unassuming nature of the place only adds to its charm. The focus here is entirely on the food, & it's clear from the very first bite that this is where all the love & attention have gone. If you've ever been fortunate enough to explore the rich culinary traditions of Maharashtra, you'll recognize the flavors instantly. For those unfamiliar, you're in for an authentic, flavorful journey that will transport your taste buds directly to the Konkan coast. Maharashtrian cuisine, especially from the Konkan belt, is known for its delicate balance of spices, coconut, tamarind, & fresh, local ingredients. At this vegan spot, Mr. Abhishek has managed to recreate these authentic tastes while staying true to the plant-based ethos. What sets this place apart is its ability to transform simple, traditional ingredients into dishes that are not only delicious but also feel soulful. The care that goes into the preparation is evident, & Mr. Abhishek himself is always on hand to share the stories behind each dish. His passion for the food & his desire to introduce these flavors to the Montreal crowd shine through in every interaction. One of the standout dishes on the menu is the "Vegan Grandma Curry," a hearty & flavorful curry that uses coconut milk as the base, flavored with an array of spices that balance heat with sweetness. It's served with freshly made rice or roti, & each bite is packed with layers of flavor. While the food is a major draw, what truly makes this place special is the atmosphere. There's an undeniable warmth to the space, largely due to Mr. Abhishek's welcoming nature. He takes time to explain the nuances of each dish, often sharing anecdotes from his own experiences growing up in India's coastal regions. It's clear that this isn't just a business for him - it's a labor of love. Whether you're a seasoned vegan or someone curious to explore new flavors, you'll feel like you've been invited into Mr. Abhishek's home for a meal. In a city where vegan restaurants are becoming increasingly popular, this spot stands out for its authenticity & heart. It's not just about providing vegan food - it's about offering a true culinary experience that bridges cultures. The flavors are bold, the ingredients fresh, & the hospitality unmatched. If you're in Montreal & looking to broaden your vegan horizons, this is the place to be. In summary, this vegan joint isn't just a restaurant - it's a celebration of Indian culinary heritage, brought to life by the passion & dedication of Mr. Abhishek. Whether you're craving the bold spices of Maharashtra or simply want to enjoy a wholesome, plant-based meal, this place is a must-visit. You'll leave not only with a satisfied appetite but also with a deeper appreciation for the rich flavors of the Konkan coast.
Tula is such a gem!! The food is matched by incredible service & a lovely atmosphere. We had the most beautiful experience dining here. We had both vegan & gluten free in our group & we all had incredible options to pick from. It's hard to find a restaurant that is fully vegan with so many options. We are all visiting from Colorado & cannot wait to come back! Thank you, Abhi for making our visit to your restaurant so enjoyable.
Loved this place. Never had Vegan food before that too in an Indian taste. I will surely be visiting again. The host Abhishek was amazing to attend & walk us through the menu. Great food ❤️
Saw the almost 5 star restaurant pop up as I was googling vegan restaurants in Montreal. Wow so happy we came. Me, my toddler & husband visited for dinner ( our first time). We were greeted by Abhishek with a warm smile. The restaurant is cozy with a boho/ yoga peaceful vibes. We were thoroughly explained the menu by Abhiskek. He spoke with such passion & knowledge of the menu & How things were prepared. Listening to him describe the details of the ingredients in the dishes made us want EVERYTHING. So we ordered wayyy more food than our stomachs Could even hold & we are glad we did. The food presentation was beautiful with edible flowers & wonderful fragrances. Every dish we ordered blew our minds the flavors were outstanding & mouth watering. We chatted with Abhiskek who might I add, is a wonderful human. He is one of a kind. He feels so genuine & caring. He's fun & full of information. I literally want him to be our friend 🤣. But really! Souls like his don't come around too often. We stayed & talked about everything, even though we had finished eating. We took our left overs & even ordered more before leaving. Because WOW! The food is bomb. We had a wonderful experience. Amazing food plus Abhishek was a lovely evening. My toddler also loved chatting with him. Okay Also, everything is delicious & the desserts were amazing so I recommend just trying whatever you're in the mood for . You can't go wrong!!!

Tula is amazing!! I wish we had a plant base Indian restaurant like Tula in Salt Lake City, Utah. We were in Montreal 6 days & l ate here 3 lunches. It is absolutely delicious & healthy. Finding a restaurant where the owner cares about his patrons is rare. Abhi (I hope i got the owners name right) is so kind & goes out of his way to explain the dishes & makes you feel very welcome. The first day I ordered Lentil Idis with Samba & Chutney. My husband had the Brunch Platter. Everything was amazing & different than any Indian restaurant we had been before. I went back a few days later & had Grandma's Special Coconut Curry with Veggies & the GF Chapati. The curry was loaded with yummy veggies. I enjoyed it so much that I went again 2 days later for Grandma's curry!! You must try this restaurant!!
Joli décor. Belle expérience. Service par M. Abhishek efficace & très généreux pour expliquer ce que nous allons manger & même des suggestions de l'ordre à prendre pour apprécier . Occasion de déguster un brunch complètement inspiré de l'Inde une belle présentation qui donne l'occasion de savourer des portions suffisantes pour savoir si vous tolérez "leurs épices". Question de goût ainsi que tolérance
Tula offers a fantastic experience. The care & dedication that Abhishek & his team put into developing the menu, preparing the dishes, & providing service is exceptional. It's a wonderful representation of lesser-known regional Indian cuisine, with beautiful plating & amazing flavors. This restaurant is a must-visit, whether you're vegan or not. We will be back!
It's great to see Abhishek's creativity & enthusiasm for representing regional Indian flavours. The staff are attentive, & create a very warm & inviting atmosphere. You don't have to be vegan or a fan of Indian cuisine to appreciate the exceptional food at Tula.

Quelle excellente soirée on a passée grâce aux petits soins du chef Abhi & de son équipe. La cuisine est légère, tellement savoureuse & magnifique pour les yeux. Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir :)
Such an amazing place. I'm a celiac & was really worried we wouldn't find much gluten free food & when I called to ask the owner was amazing & he took good care of us, the food is amazing 12 outta 10 soo good. The masala chai was delicious it was made so good truly wasn't expecting how good it was gonna taste before I added sugar as I love sugar in my teas & coffees. The atmosphere is incredible really makes you feel like you're at home & not over crowded feeling with how the atmosphere is set. Thank you to the owner Abhishek for being such an amazing host to us. Will most definitely be back to try the gluten free weekday menu & desserts can't wait!!!! If you're ever in Montreal 1000% recommended espically if your vegan, vegetarian or gluten feee celiac
Amazing place Amazing human (Abhishek) Could not believe how delicious the food was as a non-vegan! The jackfruit briyani had me completely fooled it was so flavorful. This place has THE BEST Thali in the city . The hibiscus drink was phenomenal too. The best part was the service & atmosphere. Abhishek truly has a gift. He was so welcoming & friendly & so outstanding & attentive. We will definitely be back!
Folks, the ratings given to this restaurant by the 1100+ reviewers before me are not an exaggeration. This is the spot. I've ordered & been to TULA quite a few times now, & it has become my favourite restaurant in the city. Montreal has so much amazing food, & TULA tops them all. Not only is the food some of the tastiest food you'll eat, but it's also super healthy. When you tell people you're vegan, the assumption is that you eat relatively healthy. But not so much when you eat out. Vegan does not equal healthy. TULA is delicious, vegan, healthy & totally unique. The owner, Abhishek, is also the nicest, most humble chef & host. He is very passionate about what he does & it shows in his food. He's also a strong supporter of other vegan chefs in the city, & his appreciation for those who directly provide for the vegan community was really sweet & refreshing. Rather than see each other as competition, I love that there's support between those chefs. Regarding the food, I've eaten at TULA for dinner mostly, but recently discovered they also served brunch, & both are delicious. For brunch, my partner & I tried the Bombay Sandwich & the Brunch Platter. The sandwich had multiple layers of greatness & texture. The platter had a few items from the brunch menu, all of which are interesting & different. Sambar, black chickpea salad, chutneys but best of all: the sweet potato porridge. I could have eaten buckets of that porridge. As for dinner food, so far I've tried the: - Koshimbir (isn't it so great when a salad isn't treated as an afterthought & menu-filler?) - Grandma's Special Coconut Curry (good lord, amazing, had it with the assorted veggies & vegan chicken) - Dal Tadka (love the flavor) - Jeera Matar Aloo (maybe I love cumin, this was delicious too) - Biryani with jackfruit (the vegan mint raita is glorious) - Tofu Bhurjee (awesome with the chapati) Food from TULA actually has a lot of real estate on my mind, & I absolutely will keep on returning to try food I've yet to have the chance to eat.
Just had the most amazing meal & service at Tula in Montreal. Abhishek knows the art of Indian food . It's the way Indian food is meant to be! It was healthy & very flavourful with very little oil & just the right amount of spices. Each dish was unique & very satisfying. We are from Toronto & have tried a lot of the Indian restaurants there ...& I can honestly say this was the best . It was a great experience & we will look forward to coming back again soon. Highly recommended. Best Indian food in Montreal . Dont think . Just go .
