What guests say about Shandaar Cuisine

Customers especially praise the authentic Pakistani cuisine, which is very flavorful and often freshly prepared, with dishes frequently mentioned such as karahi, biryani, naan, and chai. The service is generally described as warm, attentive, and welcoming, with a clean, cozy, and family-friendly atmosphere. A few reviews, however, mention wait times, portions considered small, or prices perceived as high. Overall, it is a highly recommended spot for authentic flavors in Montreal.

The flavour was delicious! I ordered via uber. The lamb curry was good but i would have like to know that it was going to come with many bones and same for the biryani. The food is overpriced for the amount of protein you get.

Hi NU, Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the flavour of our food, and we’re sorry your experience wasn’t what you expected. However, we would like to mention that you didn’t ask us whether the lamb curry or biryani contained bones when placing your order. We understand that everyone has different preferences, and we would have been happy to clarify this for you. We genuinely value our customers and would appreciate the opportunity to make things right. Please give us another chance and kindly call me at 647-894-7044 so we can personally address your concerns. We would love to turn your experience around and show you the level of service we strive to provide at Shandaar Cuisine. Thank you !

Amazing food and excellent customer service at Shandaar Restaurant! We got the Chicken Shandaar Karahi and it was delicious and full of flavours. Special thanks to Uzma, the owner, for her warm hospitality and outstanding customer service. Highly recommend this place if someone is looking for authentic Pakistani cuisine in Montreal.
