Taj Mahal Du Vieux-Montreal

The meal tasted fine. The service was fine. However, I wound up very thirsty for the rest of the night, so MSG? Never heard of that being an issue with Indian restaurants, but there’s always a first.
I also got itchy … and then it kicked up again the next night after eating leftovers, so it was definitely the food from here!

Nice service, even if a bit slow at times. Good food and good ratio quality-​price. I would recommend the peshwari naan to anyone

Please avoid this restaurant at all cost. These guys are a big ripoff. The food is mediocre at best and its super expensive but the people are horrible. When we went in we wanted to order one entrée but the waiter told us that we wont be served until we order two entrees which was extremely weird. But it didn’t stop there. At the time of payment, the waiter stood on top of me and told me that by law everyone needs to pay 15% tip. When I inquired more he started beating about the bush but still kept on intimidating. Please save your self a trip AVOID THIS PLACE!!!

Enjoyed a great lunch here last week. Both of us are a little picky about Indian food because we eat it so much, and this place was a-​okay in our book. We had the business lunch special, which was a great value. Enjoyed nice appetizers, a soup and a dish of lentil onion dumplings which I forgot the proper name of, followed by a Tandoori chicken and another curry dish, with naan and rice. Included in our meal was a rice pudding dessert with coffee and tea. Restaurant is nice and clean, and has a great location.

We were visiting Old Montréal in the middle of winter, and a lot of restaurants were closed. There were 8 of us in the restaurant. The place is very nice inside, not too formal and not too casual. Exposed brick walls, nice lighting, etc. The waiter was very professional and polite. The menu was extensive, and not the «usual» dishes seen at an Indian restaurant. We ordered oignon bhajee as an appetizer, which was so delicious! I got a curry dish, dupiaza with veggies, and my partner got saag with veggies. As opposed to a typical Indian restaurant, these were not doused in sauce, and the veggies had a nice char taste to them and were SO delicious! I couldn’t stop eating! We would go back in a heartbeat.

Worst Indian food everrrr. They brought us cold Kabab platers and it was made day before. When we asked, they lied to us. We are expert in Indian food and they tried to fool us. When we told them about our food being old, they didn’t even offer to replace them. I would never recommend this restaurant. Also, portion is very small.

This is one of the premium restaurants in Old Montréal area. If you are looking for good Indian food, this is the place you should visit. Ambience, service and food is very good.

I was extremely disappointed by this restaurant mainly because it was extremely expensive for the quality of food and frankly I just wanted to finish the food I had and leave. The restaurant itself is nice but the food is not authentic indian food nor did it do indian food justice. It did not have many vegetarian options and again, it was over priced.

Good service. Naan was so-​so. Chicken tikka masala was great. They really make it hot when asked for extra spice, without destroying the flavor.

The menu here is great and service is fantastic. We live close by and have come here a couple times; its nice and quiet so great if you like a bit of intimacy. Also its one of the few places in Old Montréal where the bill ends up being less than you expected.

Located on St. Paul Street in Old Montréal Taj Mahal offers Authentic Indian Food. Frankly I don’t expect a lot from places located in touristy areas. But Taj Mahal proved me wrong. The restaurant pretty much has no décor. Just tables and chairs crammed into a room. Service is not too fast. My rating for em till this point was 2.5 stars. Then the server brought the complimentary poppadoms with the sauces. They were really crisp & tasty. We ordered the Chicken Vindaloo & Lamb Madras with Garlic Naan & Basmati rice. Both the vindaloo & Madras had a zing to it. The chicken was perfectly cooked, so was the lamb. The nan’s were freshly baked and the rice was fluffy & aromatic. One of the best Indian places I’ve been to in Montréal. The ratings jump to 4 stars. The service might seem slow, but I guess cooking something well does take time. I’d say while you wait for your entrée’s, sip on to Indian beer (Though I’m not a big fan) or some White wine (Goes really well with spicy food). The place is a bit pricey, but its Old Montréal, Touristy area… blah blah. But yeah definitely worth a visit
