“Best restaurant in Quebec City, I have eaten in many places and didn’t like their food, but yesterday I went to Desi Taste and ordered the fish pakora, lamb biryani and chicken Naga Wow—the fish pakora was amazing, and the biryani chicken naga were too good!”

I honestly don’t get why their own people keep criticizing Indian restaurants. I’ve been to this one so many times and never had a single issue — the food’s always delicious, the place is super clean, and the people there are really nice!

The roti was dry and felt like it was made hours ago. The sabji lacked flavor and tasted very oily, and the dal tadka was watery with almost no proper tempering. Not worth the money at all. The sabji was too spicy and overloaded with oil. You could barely taste the vegetables, and it felt very heavy. Poor balance of flavors

This is one of the worst restaurants I’ve ever experienced. We ordered a lot of food online, but one item was missing, and the food we received was neither fresh nor good. I tasted like leftovers. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

The roti was extremely chewy, and we couldn’t even finish it, especially considering how expensive it was. The curry was just as disappointing—honestly horrible. Overall, a very poor experience. Would not recommend eating here.

We did not enjoy the food at all. The roti was very hard, the sabji had too much oil, and there was no taste. Overall, it was a very bad experience for all of us.

Authentic food at a good price. Spicies are just right and quantity also good. I went with my family and ordered Biryani and chicken jalferazi and it was delicious. We came back next day for pick up too. Definitely recommend

Yesterday, my family and I dined at Desi Taste Restaurant. The food was outstanding—every dish tasted fresh and flavorful. The service was excellent and staff were attentive throughout our visit. Although our meal took a bit longer to arrive, it was clear that everything was freshly prepared, which made it worth the wait.

Food is okay, a little pricey for what you get. Wait is long, ordered a soup and main dish waited for about 45 min. Staff is nice though. Overall it was okay!

I rarely write negative reviews, but this experience was genuinely disappointing. As someone familiar with authentic Indian/Pakistani cuisine, it was disheartening to see such low-quality food being served to a non-Indian community—it gives the wrong impression of how rich and flavorful our cuisine truly is. The lamb vindaloo was completely off. Instead of a bold, spicy curry, it was filled with potatoes, broccoli, and green peppers—ingredients that simply don’t belong in a traditional lamb dish, especially not one that’s meant to highlight the richness of the meat. The chicken curry was equally confusing—overly oily with an unclear flavor profile. The only redeeming part was that the chicken thighs themselves were tender, but that alone couldn’t save the dish. The rotis turned hard and rubbery within minutes, making them difficult to enjoy. The naan wasn’t authentic either, but at least it remained soft longer than the roti, which made it slightly more palatable. Ordered at 8.30pm and got delivered at 9.45pm. Overall, this felt like a complete waste of money. Honestly, a simple pizza would have made for a much better family dinner. Experiences like this make you regret not choosing something else—and unfortunately, we ended up relying on pizza for days afterward. Very disappointing.

Had a great experience at Desi Taste Restaurant! The food was fresh, flavorful, and reminded me of authentic homemade desi cooking. The spices were perfectly balanced and every dish was full of taste. The staff specifically the chef abdul was friendly and the service was quick. Definitely a nice place to enjoy traditional Indian/Punjabi food with family and friends. Highly recommended if you are craving real desi flavors!

Hospitality and food was really good. We order daal makhni, shani paneer with tandoori roti, mango lassi and special indian chai. Sam & another staff member attended us well. Every penny worth. 👌

Honestly, this restaurant truly has an authentic Punjabi touch in its food. Even though I’ve tried other restaurants in the city, I didn’t enjoy the taste as much as here. The food feels genuine, and the dal makhni is especially excellent. Sam is great person and recommend good options provided great customer service .

Best Dal Makhani in the City! "Had an incredible dine-in experience here last night! The atmosphere is cozy and authentic, with warm lighting that makes it perfect for a dinner date or family meal. We ordered the signature Dal Makhani, and it was exceptional—rich, creamy, and slow-cooked to perfection. The tandoori roti was fresh, hot, and had the perfect smokiness, straight from the tandoor. Service was top-notch;Can't wait to go back!" Special thanks to Sam for great service….
