We came to Kahari Point for a friend's birthday party. The spouse of our friend had made…read morereservations over a week in advance, but the restaurant had no record of it, but since the dining room was empty, they were able to accommodate the ten of us. After some time with the menu, and pitchers of water having been delivered to the table, the server came to take our orders, food and drinks together. The appetizers were delivered before most of the drinks, with one guest not receiving their appetizer until the mains were being delivered. The server had a bit of a hard time remembering who had what, but with some direction, everything was delivered eventually. The food was nice. We had the Lahori fried fish, nicely spiced, fish cooked really well. My partner and I shared the Combo 2 with white meat chicken kahari, beef kebab, and garlic naan. The chicken was cooked very well. The curry paste was tasty. The kahari was served in a large metal bowl, very nice touch. I really enjoyed the kebab as well. The naan was factory made, not fresh. That was a bit disappointing. My fraise rose was delicious. My partner had a mango lassi and said it was acceptable but a bit too thick. The meal had a good spice level throughout. The portions are generous and very filling. Good value for money, however the menu does not make it clear that most dishes seem to be intended for sharing. At the end of the meal, it took some time for dessert to come out (included with the meal), and it seems only some people were asked if they wanted tea or coffee, our side of the table was not. Towards the end, the server simply stood at the other end of the table and asked, generally, if anyone wants anything else. The service might have been better on a busier day, but at 1pm on a Sunday, it was lacking a bit, and we felt a little bit like an inconvenience, even though we were the only people there. We would go back, just maybe for an evening date.

We ordered three appetizers, naan, and one main course. The items came out quickly and hot, and the waitstaff checked with us when each item came out to make sure we liked it.

After landing in Montréal, I was so hungry and craving a nice plate of poutine -- an iconic…read moreCanadian specialty. So I popped on Yelp to look for a spot near by with great reviews. La Banquise wasn't far from where we were staying and I discovered that it was a favorite of locals! I mean, at 11pm the place was packed to the brim! A very promising sign. Once we stepped inside this cozy establishment, it almost felt like a diner, with fun painted tables. Our table had Elsa & Anna on it! Their menu is outstanding, offering plenty of different loaded poutines. Poutine is typically fries, gravy, and cheese curds. So I decided on La Scooby, which had meats, a Caesar salad dressing, and fried pickles on top! The flavors all worked together so well! This was my first poutine experience and by far my favorite. Merci, La Banquise!!

It was one of only a few tasting menus I've tried. We weren't given a list of what to expect so each dish was a fun surprise. I will say, if you choose the tasting menu, come hungry! There is quite a bit of food and it definitely got harder to finish as the meal went on. You have the option to do a drink pairing with it as well. My friend did the mocktail pairing and she let me try some of her drinks. They were great! I found both of the cocktails I had weren't super balanced but I'm happy I tried them! One was super strong whereas the other tasted mostly of cilantro in a glass (bit was stunning!) I'll include photos of the food because it was excellent! After each dish we kept saying it was our favorite But if I had to pick three it would be the Fattouch Salad (so good!), the rack of lamb (incredibly tender), and the stat of the show and dessert of my dreams - the pistachio Ashra ice cream with Syrian Cotton Candy. Oh my goodness!! The service was a bit impersonal however we always had what we needed and they were very attentive and friendly albeit a tad rushed. The ambiance was lovely! Such a vibe in there! Highly recommend to anyone wanting a special and very delicious night out!

It was clear there was seating inside, but they also have an outdoor seating area that is much more enjoyable. The entire street is like a plaza so there's no cars rumbling by. Also, the area where they make food reminds me of Chipotle, a lot. Pretty neat. The employees were very patient. The particular employee taking our order had to rewrite our order three times because some of us kept changing our sandwich, and that's something that'd piss me off, but these employees have self-restraint, much kudos to them. They also called the name on our order and brought our food outside. They're doing so much and it made the experience so good. My sandwich was fantastic. I had the chicken sandwich, and it was so crispy. The chicken had so much crunch and my bread must've been fresh out of the oven cause it was nice and warm. Might be the best chicken sandwich I've ever had. Fantastic restaurant, employees, and food. I highly suggest that you stop by here no matter what you're doing in the area. Must-try sandwiches here.

I went with her to this awful restaurant "MAMA KHAN". We were visiting Montreal. Originally we are from Boston, MA USA. First and foremost, I'm not sure it is a Pakistani restaurant or it it is run by Afghani people. The first order was Samosa. It was burnt outside cooked in high heat, so when we opened it one layer of Maida was raw inside. The potato inside was black and had a weird taste. We were hungry so we hate the outside part of the Dough, although burnt. Second order was lassi- it smelled something awful. I drank one gulp and didn't touch it again. The third order was chicken haleem but it appeared to me the chef forgot to put the chicken- it tasted like dal and wheat. Although it was not that bad. I ate it as if I'm eating dal. The third order was lamb charsi Karahi. I could not eat even one piece. It was not cooked at all. I packed the lamb as by now I had lost faith and didn't want to leave the entire untouched dish. I thought these guys may serve my left on table dish to someone else. We took the left over food and put it in a trash. The Nan was not bad except one fourth of the naan was not properly cooked, so we discarded that portion and ate the rest of the naan with the "DAL HALEEM" Service- the kid was from Afghanistan and was decent. He was polite.
