Tula is without a doubt my favorite restaurant in Montreal. I was in town for three months, & after my first time eating here, Tula became a weekly stop. It's not just the best vegan food I have ever eaten, but the best Indian food as well. Grandma's curry, the biryani, & any one of the three exceptionally creative desserts are especially worth tasting. The variety of flavors & the uniqueness of the dishes even make this a great place to take a non-vegan. The atmosphere is very pleasant & calming, & the service is outstanding: special shout-out to Abhi & Alina for their warm hospitality during my repeated visits. This is a must-stop destination for anyone coming to Montreal, & well worth going out of your way to experience.
Man oh man let me say One place you need to try this is definitely the place especially If you are A fan of Indian food period But do keep in mind that this is a vegan place But the flavors are so complex & robust It is so worth it To step out of your comfort zone Are only a meat eater. We made the mistake of coming In between launch & dinner service Period We thought it was open because the sign said open but they do take a break between Lunching dinner service so keep that in mind which I think is between four & five o'clock. but we did enter during that time The gentleman let us know that they were on their break but it was definitely worth it for us to come back Which we did & which we were very happy we did. The waiter was extremely knowledgeable Of the menu & very helpful with helping us decide Which dishes Going to be good for us here He was a tremendous help very upbeat & personable We experience you get with him alone Would be worth the visit but just know you're also going to be observed some amazing food.

I honestly wasnt impressed by the flavors. We ordered the biryani & the grandma curry but I feel like there was no balance in the flavours. For anyone who's going there mainly for the platter, keep in mind that its available only for brunch. Service was good & fast though
I stumbled into this place looking for lunch, & as a vegetarian, it was just perfect! The thalia special for lunch (a sampler platter) was absolutely delicious, & everything was house made, fresh, & so flavorful. I'm in town for just the weekend & I may come back another day for dinner to try more things!
On Sunday, May 20, we celebrated our daughter's birthday at Tula, & it was an amazing experience! The food was incredible, with beautiful presentation & delicious flavors. The staff, Abhishek & Analie, were incredibly warm & friendly, they made our experience that much better! Abhishek did a fantastic job explaining the menu, & Analie crafted the most amazing cocktails. The ambiance was warm, with soft music in the background & a very clean environment. We will definitely be back & highly recommend this place to anyone who enjoys vegan Indian cuisine.
We celebrated our engagement at Tula with 20 people, including kids. It's safe to say that everyone loved what they ordered. The food is super healthy, very home style & the flavors are on point. Special mention for the mango lassi & ginger kombucha! Both Abhishek & Brenda are very hospitable & really friendly, making sure everyone was comfortable & satisfied.

"Quebec's Tula (Indian vegan) is a culinary oasis nestled in the heart of Quebec City. From the moment you step inside, you're enveloped in a warm & inviting atmosphere that sets the stage for an unforgettable dining experience. The menu at Quebec Tula is a delightful fusion of Quebecois & Tula cuisine, offering a unique blend of flavors & ingredients that tantalize the taste buds. Each dish is expertly crafted with precision & care, showcasing the culinary prowess of the chefs. One standout dish is Thali (which I ordered) The service at Quebec Tula is impeccable, with attentive staff who are passionate about providing a memorable dining experience. Brenda provided exceptional service during our dining experience. She was attentive, friendly, & went above & beyond to ensure our satisfaction. Her recommendations were spot-on, & her genuine enthusiasm for her job was evident. Brenda truly made our meal memorable, & we'll definitely be returning thanks to her outstanding service. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply craving exquisite cuisine, Tula is sure to exceed your expectations. Bon appétit!"
Recommended by the waiter, I ordered the Thali. It consist of salad, vegetable dishes, Indian bread, rice & dessert. The simmered dishes are very flavorful & fragrant. The Lassi relieve the palate from the spicy dish. A bit pricey for lunch but tasty.
Is was amazing to experience vegan Indian restaurant with mouth watery flavor. I am impressed with the food, peace, ambience & ofcourse the welcoming nature of Abhishek (The host). Even if you are not vegan highly recommend.♥️♥️♥️

What a gem of a restaurant. From the first greeting to our final bite, we really enjoyed our meal. The pineapple basil salad was a perfect blend of greens, seeds, & pineapple. M had the Grandma's Curry & I had the Black Chickpea dish & each one was a perfect blend of flavors. For drinks, the hibiscus Chai & strawberry cocktail complimented the food perfectly. While we didn't think we had room for more, the pannacotta desserts completed the meal with aplomb. The staff were so pleasant & friendly & patient. My new favorite place & look forward to our return.
Beautiful healthy nutritious & vibrant plant-based food with lots of flavor! This is my new favourite restaurant in Montreal - The food is delicious & the vibes are immaculate. Definitely recommend!!
I highly recommend Tula for their delicious plant based gluten free flavorful dishes. The service was friendly & welcoming. I took my sister to Tula's to celebrate her birthday, we were impressed by all the great tasting dishes. We had the Koshimbir salad which was beautifully displayed! Grandma's Special coconut curry, Tofu Lasooni Dhaniya, a side of chapati & extra basmati rice, we also had a cup of turmeric latte. We will definitely go back to savor the other rich & flavorful dishes. I high recommend this restaurant.
Tula restaurant offers a delightful culinary journey with its diverse menu & inviting atmosphere. The chef's innovative approach to dishes showcases a perfect blend of flavors, satisfying a range of tastes. The attentive staff enhances the overall dining experience, making Tula a standout choice for those seeking a memorable & enjoyable meal.
Amazing flavorful & delicate Indian cuisine!!! Serve most dishes with gluten free options & be knowledgeable about gluten allergy situations. (They even have gluten free chapatis bread! Yummy) Definitely will come back very soon!
Absolute gem of a place, especially for vegans. We had a lunch Thali here & loved it, especially the Dal. The restaurant does a great job of showcasing the rich variety & flavors of Indian cuisine on the plate. While it was flavorful, there wasn't a hint of oil dripping around in the Thali which is typically the case with Indian thalis. Very healthy & delicious. Will definitely try their brunch as well. It's a small space but still with a good seating capacity. We had a good conversation with the owner who personally went from table to table to have a chat with patrons & explain what's on the plate. The interior decoration is great. Parking can be a bit challenging since the spots in front of the restaurant are for delivery only & the rest of the street parking can be full. Definitely recommended!!
Exceptional flavors, authentic test.This vegan Indian gem delivers an explosion of taste in every bite. From savory curries to aromatic biryani each dish celebrates the richness of Indian cuisine with maharatrian flavour without compromising on ethics. A must-visit for vegans & food enthusiasts alike!"
