Montreal's vegetarian Indian restaurant WeDesi offers a broad, consistently flavorful menu with favorites like chana bhatura, raj kachori, dosa, paneer tikka and many sweets, all fully vegetarian and prepared with fresh ingredients; reviews note attentive service, a welcoming atmosphere, and good value, with diners returning again and again, though a few mention that the music can be loud at times and that wait times can stretch during busy periods.
Honestly this was such a pleasant surprise. My in laws brought us here for dinner & we really enjoyed. Their soya chop sizzling platter was so yummy! We also loved the kulcha, pav bhaji & onion bhaji. The mango lassi's were really tasty too. The restaurant itself is very clean & the service is great. They don't keep you waiting & if you need anything they are there in a jiffy. Well done. Great indian veggie restaurant. Decent price point & yummy food. I would have added more photos but we devoured the food as soon as it hit the table.
Visited again & had to mention Neha. For the past two years, she's always been warm, smiling, & so welcoming. Her positive energy truly stands out. Don't miss meeting this beautiful soul when you visit.
A pure vegetarian Indian restaurant finally, tried their tandoori momos, BBQs platter, gol gappa & falooda
Service was on point
Food taste 10/10
Another visit for street-style Chinese
I must admit that the quality of the food is amazing
Portion wise is enough for 3-4 servings
Highly recommend

Music too loud which makes it hard to enjoy food & converse with the people at your table.
Went back & food still remains best among all Indian vegetarian restaurants. Music was a little better this time, not too loud like last time which made it easier to talk with everyone at my table while enjoying the food. Service is always great here, nice & polite staff.
Best indian restaurant that did not disappoint us in Montreal. Being vegetarians, we always struggled to find delicious food but WeDesi had many options for us… veg special was great! Malai soya chaap & panner tikkaa
were equally delicious.
Food is amazing. we ordered vada pav, mysore masala dosa & Chana bhatura. all different region cuisine still the taste was not compromised. It was very good. must try their Pomegranate Mojito. It is Mojito with Indian twist.! Special thanks to Reet.
We Desi is by far my most favourite vegetarian Indian restaurant in the Greater Montreal Area. I've been coming to the restaurant for the past 4 years & the quality of food & service has been consistently amazing. Our favourite thing to order is the Channa Baturas. The channa is fragrant with all aromatic spices but is not chilli hot & therefore a real delight to eat with the fluffy cloud like bhaturas (which were bigger than my head! ) The home made carrot pickle is divine. I would happily eat a bowl of it. The cooling yogurt served with this dish is the perfect end. It's one of the best I've eaten outside of India.
Another favourite is the Paneer Tikka sizzler. Chunks of char grilled paneer, bell peppers, onions & cabbage, served on a sizzler plate. It tastes so good.
We are big fans of the selection of their sweets as well. I love their jalebis, barfi & gulag jamun. A one stop shop when my heart is craving authentic Indian flavours.
Supporting family run restaurants, & fresh, authentic food from India is a win win in my book. The staff is very friendly & sweet, the restaurant is clean & welcoming. I can't stop thinking about the channa bhatura… maybe it's time to go back tonight
Great spot for fresh Indian snacks! I ordered the samosas & veggie pakora & both were super fresh & perfectly crunchy. The chutney had a nice spicy kick that made everything even better. The restaurant was very clean & the staff were friendly & welcoming. If you're looking for great samosas, pakoras, & authentic snacks, this is definitely a place to check out. It will for sure be my go-to spot for snacks & sweets!

Amazing Indian restaurant! I went for lunch & ordered the vegetable thali, & it was absolutely delicious-so flavorful & satisfying. I also love that the entire restaurant is vegetarian, which makes it such a great spot for anyone looking for amazing meat-free Indian food.
The prices are very reasonable too. One tip: if you're ordering takeout, call ahead because the wait can get pretty long if you just show up. But honestly, it's totally worth it. I'll definitely be back!
Finally we found an Indian restaurant that did not disappoint us in Montreal. Being vegetarians, we always struggled to find delicious food but WeDesi had many options for us… veg special platter was awesome! Paneer patiala & bread basket were equally delicious. Curries were a little less in quantity though!
Excellent food! Paar to the tag line'every bite of the food taste like in India'. We had Raj Kachori, Tandoori Momos, Chole Kulta & OG Mal Puda with Rabadi. Perfect presentation with good portions of each dish. Truly enjoyed the Indian taste after long in Montreal.
Got the order 15 minutes back & this is the current situation. Thank you so much for the amazing food. We were missing Brampton north Indian delicacy ,but apparently you served us the best north Indian food. Thank you so much.
Thanks for saving my life(hungry since morning haunting good Indian food)

My husband & I come here often for supper or for some sweet treats. As Avid foodies who have eaten at multiple different Indian restaurants, this one is by far our favourite in Montreal! Fantastic flavours, quality food, generous portions that are beautifully presented. Not to mention, great prices. We love this place, it's definitely a hidden gem in the West Island!
This is now our'Go to' veg Indian restaurant here in the West Island... Maybe it was the time of day but no reservations were required, happy wait staff, good food, yummy desserts + chai
We visited We Desi & we had a good time my friend felt like having Indian food & she was amazed with food & the service. Rest was amazing keep up the good work.

Its the best place for the indian food in the montreal. The food is very tasty & the service is also good. The best thing i would recommend is the shakes.
Edit: I have noticed some fake reviews recently posted to bring the rating down for this restaurant. Some of them have even left double quotes in their reviews which clearly tells that they just posted fake reviews.
We have been going to this restaurant from past couple of years, & the two main reasons are delicious food & friendly staff. You will always find same staff which is unusual in most Indian restaurants.
Please don't be distracted by fake reviews & give this restaurant a chance, you will be pleased.
*This is not a paid review but my genuine experience of year's dining at this restaurant.
Original review:
Don't miss out to try this Indian place, food is really good. I am listing the items we tried along with tiny recommendations for the chef :)
1. Vada pav- I would rate this slightly above average, Bhandari wins for vada pav for me. The star ingredient of vada pav is fresh curry leaves, please add them & you will see the magical transformation in your recipe.
2. Raj Kachori- Must try!! I haven't experienced the Indian taste of Raj Kachori in Montreal in years but chef has nailed Raj Kachori. It had moong, anaar, perfect balance of green chutney, red chutney & curd. Red chutney is a game changer!!
3. Amritsari Kulcha - The preparation is really good, cripy & garlicy, I would like more channa & more flavour in potato filling. A home made seasoning with spices in filling will elevate this dish to another level.
4. Moong dal halwa- Must Try!! Best in Montreal!!
The tooti frooti sundae brings back real Indian vibes-rich, fruity & perfectly balanced. Loved the touch of candied tutti-frutti & the wafer stick for crunch. Great presentation & super tasty!
Really good place to eat Indian food & one of the best service given by all especially Mr. Girish the guy who makes drinks, very POLITE really tough to find this nowadays great job keep it up team we desi.
Excellent vegetarian restaurant offering a mix of Indian & Chinese cuisine. The prices are reasonable, & I would recommend visiting again. Price is very good
