I went for the "fake" butter chicken, since I stopped eating meat a long time ago. Unfortunately, it didn't taste like butter chicken sauce at all :( & i also didn't enjoy the fake meat they used. I then learned at Tula they do their own version of everything. So if you're expecting a vegan version of the original dishes, be aware. Don't get me wrong, the food is good. It just wasn't what I was expecting. The staff is great & the ambiance is really good. This little restaurant is cute & very well located. Their version for the mango lassi is espectacular!
I went there last Friday evening with one of my friends. Let me just start off by saying, before & after being a vegan...hands down the best Indian food I have ever had. When the owner asked how the food was I was with my mouth full but my face of "oh God this is amazing" was full on. The owner is extremely calm & friendly, explains everything to you, very nice man & the place is small but cozy, warm & calming as well. I was telling my friend that whoever is cooking in the back, I will marry them for the food. We had the butter "chicken" poutine, butter "chicken" with chapati & the biryani. Yes, our eyes were bigger than our stomachs but we were more than happy to take leftovers home. The spices used for everything were perfect, not too spicy, a perfect blend, a bit of sweetness to it. Definitely look forward to returning & trying their brunch menu! I wish we took pictures but we jumped right into the food!
At Tula, I felt as though I was on a trip to India, enjoying tasty vegan food, referred to as "pure vegetarian" there - with no dairy ingredients. There were three of us. I chose the special thali with eight little bowls, each one with a unique blend of spices & flavour. The owner served us as though we were in his home, & we enjoyed exchanging anecdotes about our travels in India while we ate our way through the various courses. The vegan chicken tikka masala was very good, & I specially enjoyed the grandmother's dish with a delicious blend of spices. We'll be back to sample the brunch menu!
Tula is a must-try restaurant for Indian food with a serene ambience! As soon as you walk in, you're greeted with calming spa-like music in a dining room filled with artistic decor & soft lighting. We were served by Abhi who welcomed us with such hospitality that we would go back just to hear more about the restaurant! We ordered the Jackfruit Biryani & the Vegan Butter Chicken Curry - both of which had incredible flavours. 10/10 would definitely visit again!
After living in Montreal for many years & tasting the same, boring, spicy, oily generic Indian food here, I think we have found what we are looking for in Tula. It is a really cute, intimate, peaceful restaurant on St. Laurent. The service was impeccable, with the owner himself going around to each table & took the time to explain each & every dish on the menu with a smile on his face! You can really sense the passion that he has for the restaurant & vegan/healthy food in general & that is greatly appreciated! The food itself was just what we wanted, very simple, no nonsense food that felt like we were dining at someone's home. We ordered the Asian Style Salad, Grandmother's Special Curry & Lasooni Palak Tofu & the Elaneer Payasam for dessert. The Grandmother's Special Curry with "chicken" & vegetables, is a must try & completely outshone the other dishes (the others were very tasty too!) It had amazing flavour with just the right amount of spice & not oily at all. The Elaneer Payasam was quite interesting, nothing quite like what we've had before. As a tamilian myself, I wouldn't say that it is a typical south indian payasam but nevertheless it was quite tasty! Overall, we were pleasantly surprised by how great the food is here & will definitely be back soon! We look forward to trying the family restaurants in Toronto as well!
Tula has the best Indian & Asian vegan food in North America. Just the right amount of spice, not at all greasy & flavors so tempting all in one. The service is very attentive & the owner is very informed, knowledgeable & passionate, his positive energy rubs on to you. The menu is very carefully curated & l have been to TULA several times, for their monthly special THALI, evening Biryanis & Currys & weekend brunch, this is by far the best vegan restaurant in Canada! Their butter chicken & poutine too is mind blowing. The price is very reasonable compared to what you pay for junk food or bland & boring poke bowls full of emulsified oil sauces (which looks healthy but is it really once you pour those sugary or emulsified oil beautiful sauces on it?). LONG LIVE TULA! We must support & encourage this lovely local gem & pride of Montreal!
Beyond my very high expectations. After being vegan 6 years & only eating our own home cooked indian cuisine (as well as I can replicate it), we can finally go to an authentic indian restaurant & eat healthy, tasty, spicy, out of this world flavorful food. We ate too much but have no regrets. Mago Lassi, Chai, Tikka Masala, Ghassi, Jeera Matar Aloo, Poryial & chicken biriyani 10/10. We took a bunch back home, service was great & prices are very reasonable. Staff & service is amazing. My new favorite restaurant.
