The most amazing Dosa spot in Montreal. Food is great and service was spot on. Go go go. Go go. Go.

Delicious! It was my first time having dosa. All sorts of dosa selections. We had idli and vada. I wasn't a fan of the vada but my partner really loved it. I didn't take a picture of those because we were so eager to try them! We will be back! read more

Dosa Pointe - Lamb dosa and masala dosa - Indian Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Service attentionné pour vous expliquer le menu. Dosa croustillant à point, rempli de purée de pommes de terre, accompagné de chutney et sambar au goût authentiquement du sud de l'Inde. Le goût des feuilles de cari et du fameux piment long/vert sont omniprésents. Pas trop piquant mais si vous ne tolérez aucunement la chaleur des piments moyennement forts, vaut mieux s'abstenir. Resto très populaire parmi les amateurs de la nourriture de la region du Kerala. read more

Came here with a big group (7 of us) and had a lovely lunch while visiting Montreal. We enjoyed all the food we ordered: masala dosas, idlis, vadas, uttapam, sambar, all the chutneys. Very flavorful and authentic! Highly recommend for a South Indian restaurant in Montreal! read more

Great food, must visit this place authentic south indian food and the service was fast and the people were serving are gentill

On what planet can you get a 6$ masala dosa? At Dosa Pointe, that's where! Their food is delicious and consistent. I've eaten here several times and they maintain their quality. The owner is often there, and he is one of those jolly Indian uncles from the Bollywood movies. A thorough gentleman who takes the time to get to know his clients. He'll talk to you and ask about your life like a real restauranteur. The paradox of Dosa Pointe is that you'll get a superior dosa, and pay less for it than the competition. Go figure. read more

This place is for real ! If you want an authentic dosa you should visit this place. We had a couple of the chicken dosa's . And it was well done . The Dosa is nice and crisp and stuffing inside had a nice tangy spicy flavour to it . A couple of things that will make peef about this place is that it's a bit small . It does not have handicap access and the first step to visit this place is quite high . So it's not really wheel chair accessible. For Friday nights you have to leave your name and number at the receptionist and they put you on the waiting list . We didn't wait long . For a group of 5, the fit us in within 20 minutes . There is no telephone reservation . The dosa is amazing although . read more

Dosa Pointe - Chicken dosa - Indian Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Couple of my friends raved about this place for the longest time. My sister and I were in the neighborhood, so we decided to have our lunch there. The restaurant is very simple. Few tables and chairs. The owner was our server, very helpful, despite not asking for it. He goes through the details of the food. I can see he is very passionate and knowledgeable about the food. When I saw the menu, I got overwhelmed to see the extensive of list of the menu. I asked our server to help us to choose one. My little sister chose a spicy chicken dosa. The server kept asking her if she is sure of her order because it's spicy. It was getting annoying. Finally, we got our dosas! Omg... it was absolutely a delish! It made us forget the annoying server. Especially, the spicy chicken dosas was the best! All I would say, to be patient with the owner's talking, do go there for the most delicious dosas. read more

A cash only place. Wanted to try South Indian in Montreal and found this place. The masala dosa and Vada were perfect. The sambar could be a little more thicker. The chutney were good. I would say it's value for your money. For 6 Canadian dollars you get dosa is a good deal. So those who travel from the US like me, they don't accept American cards. Either you need have a Canadian debit card or cash. read more

I don't know much about south Indian food but went there because of a friend and was delighted by the food. First I had a spicy lamb dosa which was amazing, freshly cooked and crispy with pieces of lamp inside. Liked it so much that ordered after that the lamb biryani, it was nice but perhaps it's not for everybody and had too much lamb at that point, lol. Overall we were really satisfied at the end and really full for a great price. The place is ok, not much decor and kinda small, but the service is nice. They don't accept credit cards. read more

My favorite place for south indian food. The prices are great, food authentic and fresh. I do not miss being in India when I am here. The variety for dosas is huge. And I would recommend trying their rasam instead of sambhar when you irder idli or vada. I also love the spring rolls here. Best value for money a place can offer with customized and attentive service. read more

Dosa Pointe - Indian Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

I had visited this restaurant along with my friends for dinner on this weekend. Several of my friends had visited this restaurant and said the food was great and it's really famous for its Dosa's. We went there for the dinner and by the time we reached there, it was already bustling with guests. We were told, we never get served, since it's gonna close by 10:00 pm and there were 10-12 people before us. My friend persuaded the kind owner and he let us in after half n hour. We were served within 10 minutes we gave the order for the food. Each one of us had different dosa. I tried the Chettinad Paneer Dosa. It was an Indian crispy pancake served with grated cottage cheese and spices. It was really delicious. We ordered the lamb Biryani. The meat was tender and properly cooked with the right amount of spices. The owner was cool and made sure we were served. We had a little chat with him about the food in the menu. He did mention that he had taken the food inspiration from different parts of southern India and added it to the menu. We finished our meal with large amount of food in our bellies and to give it a satisfying end , we had finished it with desserts. We had a good experience here and I definitely recommend it to everyone. read more

Dosa Pointe - Lamb biryani with desserts. - Indian Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

The owner was extremely rude to us on multiple occassions. When I first arrived at the restaurant, I wasn't so sure about the menu. The owner was very curt , irritable and rude about making suggestions when asked. However, one overlooked it and I quietly ate my meal. Having forgotten the incident I visited a second time. Again, he was extremely rude to our group ( three students) as a person just arrive 2 minutes after we did while we placed our order. He stated, that it would be very difficult to take an additional order if placed ours and the late person decided to place his later. Afterwards, we barely finished our meal and the lady picked my plate, he approached our table and told us to hurriedly get up as "another group is waiting". I'm sure he did not have dared to that to a large family group or a non-Indian crowd. The disaster are strictly okay, I can make better ones at home. The logistics of this place are a mess. And I from Bombay, where they run fast paced Dosa joints at a lightening pace and efficiency, bit never have I been told to get up and leave ever. Not one to create a commotion, I quietly left the place, but definitely no tips and not coming here again! read more

This is a cozy family business run by extremely nice people and the food is delicious! I'm not sure that I've been to another place with such a wide variety of dosas. I highly recommend the chettinad dosas, the vindaloo dosas, and the red onion uttapam. The flavour profile of these dosas is very different from a lot of the dosas I've tried at different places. I'm looking forward to trying the gongura and the achari style next visit. The idli and the vada look very enticing. read more

Amazing food, but after walking in for the second time in my first day, I was treated like a lower than worthy guest, seemingly for embarassing the owner in front of the better guests. I apologize for accidentally turning off one light, for one second, but if it's a repeated thing perhaps your advisory shouting across the restaurant could Begin with 'the light is inside!' VS (don't turn off the light...). Was looking forward to coming back many times for the quality eats, but can't be drawn toward terrible treats. Did I not tip to standard? Change the options? That was pure humiliation!! I'd have brought 10 guests back, but should they be white so you can return a pearly ^ smile like when we walked in this morning with delight, I'd hope you'd might. Second time in a day guests returning alone might get second to best in way of lighter skinned folks at rest. POINTE sur cette place, à parts des dosas:Tournes tes mots sur leur dos:améliorez vos traitements des gens, peu importe nos races, même si FRANGINS. Peut être je ne vais plus sentir attaqué pour la semblance de mon sac à-dos..? so'dat I can feel comfortable to come back... White, blue, or black or brown in this supposedly diverse town...! read more

Visiting the place second time and this time brought with me couple of friends. The food is delicious!!! It is as good as the one I enjoyed in India highly recommend it :-) read more

My favourite go to Indian restaurant in Montreal. Food which makes me feel home :) so happy to have found this place. A fan of their chicken biryani and mango lassi. Oh how can I not mention their chicken kheema dosa, one of the best they have, a must try. Though not a big fan of dosas, I myself really liked that taste. Wish the place was more spacious though, sometimes it's hard to wait for a long time for the food but at the same time to go away from the restaurant. read more

4th time here now. The dosas and Biryanis are amazing highly recommended the lamb Biryani and the Mysore Masala type of dosas. Also be sure to grab a lassi for some great times!!! read more

Owner is very friendly. This place has large varieties of dosa and accompanied condiments are good too. Must try their (spicy) chicken biryani. read more

The rating is not for the taste but for the service. Not every one holds a debit card or cash all the time. Might change my opinion when they bring in credit card transactions. I read more

Im gonna give these guys 5 stars. Wont wirte much since its all been written. Ive lived in india, us and now in canada. This is too good!!

Best dosas in the town! I went to this place on the suggestion of few of my friends. But really loved the food there. Dosa's are amazing and chutney's loved them too. If you are in Montreal and want to have a dosa don't miss it! Yummy yummy dosa at decent prices! read more

We waited outside for 20 minutes because it was a very tiny place and then they took our orders after 15 minutes, and on top of that they came to tell us their sambar was not ready at the last minute, so we wasted an over half an hour to tell us to leave. read more

Delicious food & fair prices. They were also very nice and helped us find the vegan options. As their name suggests, amazing Dosa, highly suggest! read more

I went to this place on Saturday for lunch with my sister. We ordered 2 dosas: mushroom and a green tamarind. They were both delicious in their own way and all 3 sauces that came with the dish were equally wonderful. I can't wait to go back to try more of their dishes. I know it's a review and you're probably expecting me to say something negative, but there's truly nothing to criticize about. Food is delicious; portions are fair - you won't leave hungy, price is inexpensive, service is friendly and knowlegeable. Go! You won't be disappointed. read more

Ordered Sambar-Idly and Dosa to-go. The quality/taste of both and the cutney was awesome. Given a chance, would go again.

Yummy dosas ! My husband tried the chettinad chicken kheema dosa and I tried the Achari paneer dosa. Both dosas were delicious and we will be back for more. Everyone working at the restaurant was polite and attentive. Delicious dinner . Looks like a popular place to eat read more

Authentic dosas, better than the dosas that I have tried at most Toronto's dosa serving restaurants.A must try when you are in Montreal and love dosas read more

One of the best places for a dosa... Tried almost all types of dosas on the menu..highly recommended place.. not very fancy but amazing on the taste buds read more

This is by far the best dosa I've ever had. Both my chicken keema dosa and my girlfriend's mysore masala dosa were outstanding. The chutneys were fantastic as well. My girlfriend even said it's just as good as the dosa she's had many times in India! read more

This is the second visit to Dosa pointe. The Idly are always super good! The peanut chutney is yummmilicious and the service is really good. The assortment of dosa that are available is just staggering! Lots to try and many reasons to keep visiting! The host is super courteous and I feel he knows every language you'd wanna speak in!! LOL! Definitely worth many visit! read more

Dosa Pointe!! Name says it all. They have all kinds of Dosa's and Gongura kheema Dosa is a must try. They also serve authentic hyderabadi biryani. I am from Hyderabad, trust me its one of the best I've ever tasted in Canada and definitely the best in Montreal. read more

I think I would give 3.5 stars. The owner was super nice answering our questions about the menu. Simple decor, small dining room. The biryani was really tasty. We also ordered a green tamarind dosa and vadas as appetizers, which were both nicely flavored. A very nice discovery! read more

What a wonderful find! Though it shouldn't be considered that I suppose since it's right there in 'Little India,' but for someone who grew up eating South Indian (Kerala) cooking and who finds most of what's offered up as Indian food in Montreal not quite up to par, to put it mildly, this place is indeed a find. Sanjay the owner met me warmly and remained a consummate host throughout my dining experience. He and his family are from Hyderabad and they do all of the cooking themselves. At lunch today, his wife was running the kitchen. Hyderabadi dishes are quite renowned for their brilliant flavours and innovative mix of Northern, Southern, and Middle Eastern cuisines. Although the menu looks rather typical now of "South Indian" food outside South India (dosas and idlis) he says they are gradually introducing the full range of Hyderabadi dishes in the form of daily specials. (He had a funny story of how when they went to print the original menu which listed basically everything they knew how to cook; the printer laughed at them and told them what they had was not a menu it was a book!) Okay to the food: all fresh and delicious. First, I had a bowl of rasam to warm up my bones. It was rich and spicy and sour all at once. Hit the spot. That was followed by a plate of vadas, which are basically yummy savoury lentil donuts (!), served with sambar and two kinds of chutneys. The coconut chutney has the Hyderabadi "extra" touch, which is to mix in a peanut paste. Then of course I had to try the good old standard masala dosa: perfect. The filling could probably be a little spicier but then this is the basic dosa from which there are a million permutations, which I think included spicier versions. Dosa Pointe is a true gem, anyone who likes Indian food should go right out and try it (or maybe you shouldn't; I would hate to stand in a line in this cold!). I can't wait to go back and try one of their biryanis! read more

Honestly it's a shame.. the food is great is but the service is just terrible.. we ordered apps and main course right away as we knew the menu well.. the table next to us which sat down 10 min after received their appetizers and main course before us... 35 mins later I ask the waitress that I would like the apps to come before the main order... she said they are busy and should be shortly ready, I asked her to please make sure the apps are fresh... 46 mins later she brought cold appetizers not even considering the fact our order was nowhere near ready and we didn't even get a follow up... 1 hr later I had to approached the waitress a second time, she said they're busy... another table sits down, receives main course.. still no dosas for us... such a shame.... been here a few times and same experience every time, if ever you are hungry I suggest you so you this place as you'll be disappointed... defo not returning read more

Quality spices and ingredients, precision, friendly staff/family run, ridiculous value. Cannot askfor more, especially considering the spice quality of other establishments. In additionthey serve south indian food rather than the all too diluted and often less than serviceable britsh/punjab variety. read more
