I ordered four chicken biryanis yesterday. I’ve always enjoyed your food, which is why this experience was disappointing. This is the first time I’ve received takeaway biryani that had an unpleasant smell even before opening it, and the rice itself seemed off. I believe it’s important to consistently serve fresh food and maintain the quality your customers expect. I’m not seeking a refund—I’m sharing this feedback because I value your reputation and hope you continue to prioritize freshness and customer satisfaction. I’ve already left a message with the receptionist and hope this reaches the owner

They refused to serve halwa puri while giving it to other customers at the same time. We tried to give them a second chance even after my friend found steel sponge thread in the food, very poor and disgusting customer service!

They refused to serve the halwa with halwa puri while offering the same to other customers at the same time. Totally unfair

Place was empty so we enjoyed the environment. Food was from Sandhu so it had to be fresh. It was warm good and the taste was OK.

Whenever I miss my loved ones and crave that authentic desi taste, Dera is the place I turn to. I’ve tried food from many Indian, Pakistani, and Bangladeshi restaurants, but nothing comes close to the quality and hygiene they maintain here. It’s not just about taste — it’s about the feeling of comfort their food brings. You can truly sense the high-quality ingredients in every bite.What also impressed me is their staff — many have been working there for a long time, which is rare in this industry. It shows how well the place is managed and how much people enjoy working there. My all-time favorites: Nihari, Biryani, and Naan. Highly recommended for anyone looking for real desi flavors.

Very disappointing buffet. The food was tasteless, cold and way too spicy. Trays were not refilled and Lamb dishes without meat only gravy left and dirty plates piled up on the table while waiters didn’t even come to clear them. For $30.99 + tx per person, it is seriously overpriced. This buffet should cost around $9.99 at most. I would not go back and do not recommend it.

30$ buffet not worthed. Every year we go with my Muslim friends for iftar. This year was one of the worst, no fish pakora, no beef for Muslim, only one Biriyani . Don't rip of your own people's money in ramadan

Beef Karachi, chicken biryani and butter chicken are excellent. The prices are on the lower side. Have been coming back since 2009. They also offer catering and gladely accommodate big groups.

We had a wonderful family dinner at Dera Restaurant. The food was fresh, flavorful, and truly authentic. The haleem and chicken tikka were outstanding, and the staff made us feel very welcome. Murtaza is the most handsome owner & kind. If you need special spices touch go see him. The atmosphere is perfect for family gatherings. Highly recommend for anyone looking for quality Pakistani cuisine in Montreal!
