Everybody really enjoyed the food and actually some people enjoyed it so much that they took some portions home. We had spicy lamb, sag paneer, and butter chicken along with garlic naan and mango lasses and rice. So people had a great variety of different things that they can choose. The lamb was a good amount of spice and they did make sure to adjust the spice level and explain to you the different spice levels over the phone before ordering. I would definitely recommend coming back here. This was originally recommended to me by my Indian friends who raved about it.

This Indian restaurant had very good reviews, so I decided to have lunch in here…read more The Thali option looked really good and I saw someone having it, it was a good portion. But I decided for the Murgh Malai Tikka. I thought it was going to be similar to Tandoori chicken since it was cooked in a Tandoori oven, but it was a plate with 12 pieces of white meat chicken chunks marinated in yogurt (I know that's what the description says, but I was hoping that it was closer to a red Tandoori chicken). The food was good, but I am not a fan of white meat chicken. It was my fault, but the service and the overall experience was good. Many choices on their large menu.

My wife and I were craving some Indian food while visiting Montreal and we saw Veranda had really…read moregood reviews so we wanted to try it! It's towards the top of Old Montreal so we had a nice walk to and from the restaurant. We were greeted by the host and sat down immediately. The restaurant inside was very pretty and had low lighting to make it look very intimate. I'd definitely consider Veranda a fine-dining Indian restaurant. We ordered the samosa tarts and malai chicken tikka from the appetizers and both were absolutely delicious! We also ordered mango lassi, butter chicken, and garlic naan (all automatic orders for us when we go to Indian restaurants) and none of them disappointed. However, we were a little disappointed that they didn't have a few menu items that we see back home or at other Indian restaurants like onion bhaji, pakora, biryani and tandoori chicken. The only complaint we had was the service wasn't that great. Our order was taken a few minutes after viewing the menu and the staff was very friendly but after we finished our appetizers, we felt neglected as other tables were served their food and we were waiting 25-30 minutes to get served our main dish. We had to let the server know that we were done our appetizers and ready for the main dish. I'm not sure if this is normal in Montreal or at Indian restaurants in Montreal? Other restaurants we were served our courses immediately one after the other, with maybe 5-10 minutes in between. It wasn't busy either for a Wednesday night where they only had 3-4 tables. Regardless, we would recommend Veranda to anyone craving Indian food who wants to eat in Old Montreal! The food is delicious!

OMG! I've eaten Indian cuisine in many states- and even in Dublin, Ireland. This is the best I've…read moreever had!

We've been there twice and everything that we've had at Mini Punjab has been excellent All their dishes are fresh and flavourful, the portions are generous, everything is just spot on. Mini Punjab is the real deal and I would say it is the best Indian restaurant that I've eaten at in Montreal. It's difficult to highlight specific dishes as everything has been so good. The pakoras are so flavourful and moist, the curries are full of flavour, the paneers firm, yet so soft that they melt in your mouth. I highly recommend giving it a try. It's a great opportunity to have some excellent food and support a new family run resto.

We must have come during a time that was not so busy as it was very easy for us to be seated. The dining room is beautiful, with white table clothes at each table, and great service to match. Since my stepsister is vegetarian, we all ordered a variety of vegetarian appetizers and entrées to share, as well as a few cocktails and glass of wine. I thought the garlic tandoori naan pretty good, but I REALLY enjoyed the yellow dahl tarka I ordered, as well as the samosas, and all the chutneys and sauces. The servings sizes are generous but not too much. We also had the paneer masala which was great. No complaints and I can't wait to return!

Highly recommend this place if you are vegan and are looking for health Indian meal choices! Everything on our plate was delish!

Montreal's most magical dining experience!…read more If you're looking for a reason to book a trip to Montreal, let me give you one: Tula. My husband and I visited during a recent trip to the city, and without question, it was the best meal we had -- and honestly, one of the most memorable dining experiences of our lives. From the moment you walk through the door, the space wraps you in warmth. The atmosphere is inviting, the decor puts you instantly at ease, and the staff greet you with the kind of genuine kindness that's increasingly rare. But it's Abhi and Renata (apologies if I've misspelled either name!) who truly make this place something extraordinary. These two are the heart and soul of Tula, and their passion for what they do radiates through every single aspect of the experience. We spent a few wonderful hours there, and I mean that -- the time just melted away. Renata sang for the entire restaurant, and her voice was absolutely stunning, a spontaneous and beautiful gift to everyone in the room. Abhi, in the most generous gesture, sat down and hand-wrote a list of vegan restaurant recommendations from around the globe for us to take home. These are people who love what they do and love the people they do it for. And then there's the food. Oh, the food. We started with an Indian taco special that set the tone perfectly, then moved on to the Tofu Achari Masala curry with chapati and the Dal Sambar with steamed rice -- both absolutely spectacular. We finished with a special pistachio cake dessert that was the perfect, dreamy ending to the meal. Every single dish tasted like it was made with genuine love and intention, because it was. This is vegan Indian cuisine at its very finest. I left Tula feeling something I didn't quite expect: greater faith in humanity. That might sound dramatic, but if you go -- and you absolutely must go, as soon as possible -- I think you'll understand exactly what I mean. Don't wait. Just go.
