I've been there 6 or 7 times. Always a good time. Food is great, prices are good, staff is super nice.

Food was decent bit salty , but it felt overpriced for what was offered. I don’t mind spending $25+ per person(60$/ person in total), but at that price point, the food quality, portion sizes, and service just didn't match up. Along with limited options. I was excited to try an indo Chinese spot, but I doubt I'll be back anytime soon. Hopefully, they adjust their portions to better justify the prices.

No reason for food to take a whole hour to arrive when we were the only people in the entire restaurant.

A beautiful relaxing spot in the heart of Saint-Henri quarter. The cocktails alone were worth the visit as each one offers a unique and amazing experience you won't find elsewhere. They have live jazz music on Thursdays creating a cozy atmosphere to enjoy good food and drinks. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Will certainly be back to experience the rest of what their menus have to offer.

I gave two chances to this place and it was the last… First time they had only one server and it was very chaotic. But the server was so nice we decided to come back. Half the menu was missing, no beers and most of the cocktails too. We ordered an appetizer and 4-5 ingredients were missing from the plate. The cabbage, the cucumber, the cilantro, and so on. So it was just tasteless fried noodles. We told the server; and he only said ‘oups the kitchen forgot to tell me and made the plate anyway’ He ‘removed it’ from the bill but at the end the ‘promo’ they have on Tuesday and Wednesday was not a promo at all, he put a SIDE dish in the ‘two plate 1 drink deal’ and the server got frustrated with me explaining it, even tho it doesn’t make any sense. Overall it was very disappointing for a 80$ bill and he was acting like he was doing us a favor for removing a plate missing all its ingredients. It’s also a poor decision to make the meal anyway hoping we wouldn’t notice. There’s so many better places around Notre-Dame, go try them instead.

The deep fried oyster mushrooms were absolutely incredible, the batter was crunchy and fresh, you could tell it wasn't sitting under a heat lamp. Fantastic custom cocktails made be friendly, attentive staff.

What an awesome cozy resto-bar! Absolutely thrilled I tried it. Thursday nights feature live jazz music, and it was lovely. The menu looks delicious and it was up to the expectation. The mussels were sooo tasty and that manchurian veggies are a must-try. Our server was also sweet and helpful. Price wise, I was also positively surprised, mocktails at 10 dollars, dishes from 12 to 25 dollars, definitely on the low side of the budget so we felt great ordering starters, drinks, desserts, without breaking the bank. Literally a 10/10 from the cute atmosphere to the delicious food to the music. Will be back!!

Best Indo-Chinese bar restaurant i’ve ever been to in Montreal. The food is just great with amazing cocktails, their”now you see me cocktail” is just a banger. The ambience is a 11/10 feels cozy, lively and calm. Such an amazing place run by people passionate about what they.

Kind patient service, delicious food, communication and nice environment. I feel the higher price for the meal is justified as it does taste premium with servers to match. I definitely would come again. I had the lamb spring roll which tastes fine with delicious sauces but wouldn’t recommend. It is much too hard and not as tasty as all other food that was great. It would have been nice to have A/C in the place instead of the loud fan, but perhaps I’m being too particular at this point. Either way, love this place.

We visited Oorja on May 17th for dinner. We were visiting Montreal and went there after reading the reviews online. The food was such a disappointment. It was no where close to Indo-Chinese or Hakka. The Gobi bites were very salty and oily. The sides portion was way too less and we were told that mains are shareable so we ordered only a few mains to share and very highly disappointed. The veg manchurian was undercooked and the side fried rice with it was too oily. The only dish that was okay was Majestic chicken but it had regional Indian flavours rather than being Hakka. The food took a long time to arrive. Overall not a good experience.

The food here was very average. Nothing close to Hakka. We were a group of 4, the service was great and the ambience was lit. The food portions were too small. The cauliflower bites were extremely oily and too salty. The veg manchurian had no flavour. We had the chicken majestic which was customised and made to our request was the only dish we enjoyed yesterday. Highly recommend to order more when in a group. Unlike the other Hakka places, the quantity is very little and taste is just average. Personally not going back here.not sure if it was just an off day for us looking at other reviews. But we are highly disappointed.

This place is outstanding. Visiting from Boston. May have converted my husband and sister to Indian food. The tikka (can’t remember the rest of the name-it was a vegetarian small plate) was scrumptious. Biryana was wonderful as well. The hostess was so warm and lovely. Highly recommend.

SUCH WASTE OF MONEY First of all nobody answers the call , i have called many times nobody respond. On the top of that, we ordered from ubereats Chicken lolipop and schezwan noodles but what we recieved we didnt expected. Last time we ordered Chicken lolipop we recieved 6 pieces but now it was only 4 pieces with very minimal meat on it and with such sweetness, what are we gonna eat when there is no meat on it. I dont know what did they thought while sending it. Talking about the noodles very very less quantity, taste was okay but quantity didnt match the price at all. On the top, they provide you food in a paperbox with no butterpaper on the bottom, boxes got so oily until it reached us. We dont even want to eat it as now its giving a smell like paper. I highly dont recommend this place.

We really enjoyed the food there! The ghee garlic shrimp and fried oyster mushrooms were sooo good. We also had the lamb with beans, which was really delicious too. I wanted to try their chicken momos, but unfortunately they didn’t have it. We’ll definitely go back to try more. Oh, and the red bean ice cream sandwiches are a must-try!

Thank you so much for the special service in my case (I eat by the gram, and you took the trouble to cut my chicken into the exact grams I needed). It was very pleasant, and I will definitely be back! Dima and the other waiter, unfortunately I forgot his name, but it begins with F. Thank you so much for the pleasant atmosphere and for your patient 😂👌

The food was really good but the service is lacking. Waiter was nice and sweet but forgot multiple times our requests and orders. For ex. forgot our mocktails, forgot to refill the water, forgot to give a receipt. Really no checkups. Would give a 5/5 if that is improved on.

Oorja is a neighborhood spot, and we love to come here. The cocktails are good, the puns are fine. We like a good goof. They used to have this really beautiful spicy chicken dish, it’s still on the menu but recently they toned it down, the dish lost all it’s edge and taste. Stick your guns Oorja! We will show up for your og recipes. I came once and you had me fill out a paper survey at your bar, I wrote « keep your spicey chkn » and you must have lost my paper cause u took out the spice. I even drew u a picture. Damn.

Typically when I have a bad experience at a restaurant, I will give the benefit of the doubt and I have NEVER given a negative review. However, so many things went wrong at our dinner the past weekend. To begin the evening, me and my 2 guests ordered drinks and shortly after placed our food order. The drinks took close to 45 minutes to arrive (I only ordered a coke, there were only 3 other tables filled at the time). The appetizers arrived another 10 minutes after our drinks. They were all pretty tasty, so we brushed off the wait and were looking forward to eating our main before we had to leave to catch a show (which was 2.5 hours after our reservation time, so we had assumed we would have plenty of time to eat and get there). When we ordered our food originally, we had asked for the duck wings. The server came back shortly after and said that they no longer offer them, and had us choose a different option. We were a bit disappointed because that was one of the dishes we saw that made us decide to try this restaurant. Less than an hour later, we see the table directly next to us receive an order of duck wings. We were getting a bit annoyed at this point, but again willing to overlook. Eventually, we FINALLY received our main after almost 1.5 hours since we arrived. This is where things really took a turn for us. In the beginning, one of my friends specified to the server that she has a garlic allergy. Knowing that it is a common ingredient, she is VERY understanding when restaurants cannot accommodate. 5 minutes after we placed our order, the server returned to let us know that the dish she had chosen could not be prepared without garlic. She went on to provide a list of dishes that the kitchen told her COULD be made garlic free, and my friend happily chose a different option. After the extensive wait for our mains, they brought out only 2 plates for us, and plainly explained to our friend who had been waiting for her food that in the end they could not make that dish without garlic. Despite the fact that it was one of the options provided to her as garlic free. As I mentioned before, this was now over 1.5 hours into our dinner and we could not afford to wait for another dish to be prepared at this point. We couldn’t believe that after all of that time waiting, nobody came to inform her earlier that her dish was not coming, and instead left her to sit completely empty handed while the 2 other people in the party had their main. She would’ve been happy if they had even offered her a serving of plain rice. However, she didn’t even receive an apology. We are all extremely understanding people, and absolutely are willing to look beyond a few mistakes and slow service. However, there were so many things that could have been handled differently (literally just a sincere apology would have sufficed). Even if they had told her earlier that they could not accommodate a garlic allergy, we would have understood and at least she could have gone to find food before we had to leave for our show. Overall, it completely spoiled a dinner meant to be a birthday celebration. As far as the food, the appetizers WERE good but the mains we did receive were not that great. Mine was missing a component and my friend’s lamb had several pieces that were quite chewy.

On 13th of February, we came to celebrate my husband’s birthday, i wanted to take him there for dine in and try the food aa we heard about it on internet. I tried to call the restaurant about the information and reservations but nobody picked the call. Later we just went in around 8:30pm, the Server told us they are having the customized menu for three days as it was valentine weekend. They showed this menu and told us to pick any two options from all the courses and it will be 96$ something. My husband asked if we could eat only 2-3 things but it will still be by the menu, because we didn’t want to eat soup and all in the evening as we wanted something special. The guy went to the kitchen to ask if they could do it but The Evening MANAGER (VINAY) strictly told him NO, as they were serving all the 4 courses and it was so called mandatory menu what we had to ordered if we wanted to dine in there. My husband requested politely too, thats it our first time, its his birthday too, if they could do it but it was clearly a NO!!! As we had lots of options around the area but we just wanted to try it out first time , Unfortunately it came out as our last time there. No matter how good your food is, but manager or owner should know how to welcome the customers in any situation. WE ARE REALLY DISAPPOINTED!!!
