This was fantastic!! The most delicious and innovative Indian cuisine. The service was excellent - the server was knowledgeable and prompt. The owner and head chef visited the table personally to check in as we ordered and as we ate - he is a lovely man who is so wonderfully passionate about his work! We can't to go again and again whenever we visit Montreal.

This is an incredible restaurant. The chef came to our table and helped us craft a perfect dinner. We were with our two young kids who’d always been lukewarm on Indian food. Now they want to drive 5 hours to go back again.

Delicious food, great service. Very friendly staff. Every dish we had was great and they even dose the spice level according to your liking. You can tell everything is made on the spot and with fresh ingredients

Some of the best Indian food I've ever had in Montreal. The ambiance is nothing special, however the food more than makes up for it. Try the place and you will believe! Just don't judge the decor before you take a taste of the food.

You can't go wrong with any of the menu items, all the food here is great. Tonight we had a birthday celebration and they were very accommodating, even bringing out a candle and singing! The only downside is the restroom, it really needs attention. Everything else is great.

I was visiting my son at university and took him and some friends for dinner. We showed up without a reservation as a party of 6 on a Friday night and luckily they were able to squeeze us in. The restaurant is quaint and welcoming. We asked the waiter to help us choose a mix of dishes that we could share and he didn’t disappoint. Everything was delicious! The service was fabulous and the chef made sure to introduce himself to all the tables. We will definitely be back but I’ll make a reservation next time to be sure we can get a table because it was a busy spot.

My partner and I had an amazing date night dinner here. The veg thali and egg plant Bartha were both excellent and we really enjoyed that the chef came out to explain the menu and ask us how our meal was going. Highly recommend!

I don’t give 5 stars very often. These guys deserve it. The chef came out and talked to us about the menu. I’ve never felt to taken care of. Thanks!

Hidden Gem ✨ Impeccable service from Simmer and his staff on the Sunday night I went. The food was delectable, chicken so tender. Can't wait to return! Thank you Darbar!

love love LOVEEEEE. first of all, the vibes, so aesthetic, so cozy, very charming and subtly refined. real candles, dimmed lights, and authentic silverware. secondly, the price point, very reasonable considering that you end up sharing a variety of dishes with a friend or a group of people. thirdly and most importantly, the food (and drinks): beyond speechless… we started off with the mango lasi and chicken skewers which took us by surprise because the flavours were out of this world, then we ordered the shahi paneer + lamb masala (with coconut milk reduction$ with rice and naan: such an appropriate and daring level of spices where the flavours just simply melt in your tongue like a symphony. highly recommend. 100/10. such a hidden gem!

We drive in from Ontario every year for a Habs game. Last year we came here for the first time on a recommendation. It was absolutely amazing. Back in the city this week and came in for our second time. The quality and authenticity is like no other. We wish we could take it back home with us. The owner is great, very personable, the service is the best I’ve had anywhere. I’d recommend this place to anyone. See you next time we’re in the city.

This meal was genuinely one of my favourite meals on the trip. We were visiting from Toronto and this place did not disappoint. We savoured every bite! The atmosphere was very cozy and comforting. Chef Simar was very friendly and served a meal to remember!

Amazing food from amazing people. After living in Montreal for 10 years, this is the best Indian food (and one of the best restaurants) I’ve tried in the city. Michelin star service and food for a fraction of the price. Spices in the curries are mixed in a layered and thoughtful fashion. Naan is to die for. Let yourself be guided by the chef - who talked to every table individually and checked in multiple times during the evening. I can see myself going back every month to this magical place!
