Everything is excellent here: the layered, freshly made porotta (unarguably the best in MTL), the fragrant, flavoursome curries & biryani, authentic milk tea (some restaurants in MTL serve machine instant teas or trash watery tea made from cheap tea bags & charge more for it), and the samosa is the best I've had in a long while (crispy exterior and not oily at all like at other restaurants, and the filling is tasty, not at all bland like those from most North Indian restaurants). Please note that this is a Kerala-style (South Indian) biryani. The menu screen clearly shows the biryani is made of white rice and without the synthetic orange food dyes (or saffron spice). The rice is white but has the subtle aroma of various spices like cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, ghee, fried onions etc. It's sad & unfair (and dumb!) for a customer to complain the rice is white or the rice is not the long grain basmati as used elsewhere - this is a regional/ southern variation of biryani and it has been made this way for centuries. Here are the items I've tried: 1- Lamb Biryani & samosa + tea 2- Butter chicken & porotta + mango lassi 3- Lamb/ Beef curry & porotta 4- Chicken curry, Veg Kurma & porotta

Ordered a lamb biryani and porotta with chilli chicken today (+mango lassi). One of the best biriyanis we've ever tried. Perfectly balanced spices and flavors. Also, porotta (layered paratha/roti type of bread) was freshly prepared right in front of us and was spectacular - the freshness and taste was impeccable. The owners were so welcoming and warm. Must try place in Montreal or even Canada!!

Omg this place is SO good! It completely satisfied my parotta cravings 🤤 The butter chicken and chili chicken with parotta were absolutely delicious so flavorful and perfectly done. I honestly can’t believe this is in a mall food court. It feels way above that, and I really hope they expand into a standalone spot with extended weekend hours because I’d be there all the time. And I can’t forget the chai… it’s AMAZING. I’ve tried so many places where it’s either too sweet or too bitter from tea bags, but this one is perfectly balanced and just hits the spot. Such a lovely place, definitely a must-try. I’ll 100% be back!

Best Kerala food in North America . I love the kappa and meen curry, reminds of Kerala food in Kerala. Beef curry and parotta tastes so delicious . If you’re in Montreal please go there and taste the Kerala style food. It’s located inside the mall food court . I give 5 star Walt food . Family run restaurant.

Wow… Thsts the flavour I was waiting for . I felt the exact Kerala flavours in every bite . For those who are unaware about Kerala . It’s at the south of India and the place is unique for its spices and food . This is a unique restaurant that offers delicious Kerala food . I tried parotta/ chilly chicken combo , chicken biriyani and mango lassi . Everything was exceptional and I definitely recommend this spot for all those who would like to try South Indian food . 5 *****

The best biryani in Montreal. The chicken biryani was incredibly flavorful, and the portion was generous. The yogurt and pickle that come with it really complement the dish. We also tried the lamb and fish biryani, both of which were excellent. This is my new go-to spot for biryani.
