    Feast for three.
    Daniel G.

    An authentic Afghan/Pakistani/Indian restaurant just by the Jean Talon Market with a homy atmosphere and cheerful, friendly service. The place also delivers. A popular spot for families to enjoy a meal, hence the restaurant's delicious menu is best enjoyed family style with a few shared plates and some naan or kabuli rice on the side. My main dishes were the baigan masala, a great veggie dish with large chunks of eggplant in a spiced tomato sauce, the palak paneer, a classic creamy spinach and cheese cube dish, done well, and the afghan chicken karahi which was tender and full of flavour. Overall an outstanding meal. The plates aren't very large, but fairly priced and quickly prepared. A must try to sample some of the best of south Asian recipes in Montreal.

    Would definitely be a regular if I lived in the area but would absolutely recommend people to come here!!! Have never been a huge fan of Pakistani/Indian food (even though I'm Pakistani) due to several factors. One being that I've grown up on this food so it's not very exciting. Second being that most Indian/Pakistani restaurants are usually not very tasty. In the sense that you can't taste the meal you're ordering. Also majority of the places will add a ton of seasoning, salt, and meat tenderizer that all the food tastes the same (different restaurants, different cities... Crazy right???). However, this place has given me one of the best experiences of my life. The whole tandoori chicken aka Lahori Charga was excellent. Seasoning, chewiness, juiciness, serving size, and price were all perfect. The server spoke Urdu and English, not sure about French since none of the party I was with spoke it either. Very hard working guy and was very helpful even after working alone! Without hesitation I would recommend people to come here.

    Relatively new small restaurant. When I ate here, it gave me a very homely type of feeling with the friendly service and the food. To dine in this place is small but if you don't mind, it's always best to eat the food fresh here rather than taking it home. The portions are small but the quality of the food and the taste does make up for it. Therefore, you wouldn't mind spending on a second portion. You can make the food from mild to as spicy as you'd like. Check out the pictures if you'd like to get an overall idea of what it's like to eat here.

    I came in on a weekday lunch. The place was empty while their neighbor was crowded. Tall ceilings…read morelarge windows widely spaced tables. I ordered the beef Ghorma. I had no idea what to expect. I waited a fair amount for my dish. No table service with a plastic tray to bring it to your table. I was surprised how much food I got. Excellent dish with a savoury beef stew. I got a large portion of rice and delicious salad. The fries were from frozen and they were fine. I even got bread to sop up the gravy. I was pleasantly surprised. Don't be in a hurry and have a large appetite. Enjoy

    Memories of food can linger on for years and years…read more It was January 1st 2005 and I don't remember exactly where I was (Queens or Bronx and still a bit out of it from the night before), I finally had Afghan food for the 1st time. What I remember the most is the flavorful rice, 3 colors of rice and the delish kebabs. I've been on the lookout for that since then here to no success. Our Afghan selection very limited here. When I passed by the Marché Central area, I saw a new addition to the admittedly crowded restaurant field. I had to try it and it delivered plenty of memories. The kofta kebab was Persian style but lacked the flavor I found from my usual faves like Kebab Sera. The filet mignon was delicious but only 4 pieces. There was a large salad with a creamy dill dressing but the higlight again was the rice. Half a large plate might seem like overkill but every bite was perfect. Large basmati grain with an indecipherable taste. You just have to try it. The plates are about $13 to $15 and I waited about 20 minutes evenduring lunch even though the place was empty. In an area where workers don't have much time or money it might be best to order ahead and get the daily specials for $10 with a drink. I have to mention the decor and scale of the place, it is gigantic compared to the shish taouk places that dot the city so it's worth it to eat in. There seem to be a reserved section where you can eat on the carpets as well as a terrace. And did I mention Glass Bottled Pepsi made with real sugar. I will definitely go back and see if what else to try, I really want to give it my hard to achieve 5 stars.

    My very first time trying Afghan food today. This place has their original location on L'Acadie and…read morewhich I've read good reviews about but as usual, laziness sometimes gets the best part of me in life so hello postponement. Fortunately, they just recently opened up their doors here in Laval and right on my daily commute path. I gotta say they did a good job attracting people from the outside of the restaurant with their chic decor and enough lighting to grab your attention. Specially with that big "Halal" neon sign in your face. I dunno, mixing religion with anything else is really not my thing plus stating the obvious like a peacock? I personally don't like that no matter what religion it is. Each to his own, keep your faith in your heart and to yourself please. Does the general public need these things shown off, flaunted and make the rest of us the none halal people feel alienated or welcomed in your establishment? Specially on businesses which their sole purpose is making money! My reaction: shaking my head..... then sticking with the main subject: Whatever, take my money. Where's the food? Back to the main topic. One word: Very good! I was hesitant between the Herath kebab and Mantou. Went with the first one only to test the quality/taste of the beef and chicken since both come on the same plate. Very nice choice. Good marinade, good taste and cotton soft meat all with a reasonable price and ample portion. I am definitely coming back here and trying their other awesome looking dishes. I have a feeling they're as good if not better than what I just had. The place is very clean, simple yet trendy, flavours of the east and west mixed well all over the place and then topped with good background Afghani music that matches the food cooked on charcoal you're consuming. Good job and wish them success at this difficult corner of this street. Lots of other businesses before them had come, tried and failed, many times that I've lost count. I'm bored seeing that kind of unpleasantness. Hope they'll stay here for a long time, prosper and become a permanent fixture. Good luck!

Parking is sometimes hard as it's a busy little strip mall. Decided to do takeout as the restaurant wAs busy. The place is super clean and always are cleaninG Food Shami kabab This is there beef kabab that comes with rice and salad. The beef was super tender and not overcooked. The spices they put in are not to overpowering. The rice and saLad are basic but nothing to complain about . Mantou Are my favourite appetizers they are Steamed dumpling filled with ground beef, onions, spices, and topped with sauce, yogurt, and herbs Lamb shank served with brown basmati rice with carrots and raisins was super tender.

Ambiance: it sure definitely changed since I was here the last time! It's more busier and way more people and much more busier from my last visit which I'm very happy to see. I'm glad people enjoy it as much as I do .. that way I know they won't be gone and I can come back as often as I can to enjoy their AMAZING AND DEEELICIOUS AUTHENTIC aghan cuisine. Service: always consistent and superb service. The people behind the counter are super friendly and care to give their utmost best service! They are now running around with over 5-10 people in the kitchen as it's quite busy and they have many people working to get their food orders up.. fairly quick and quality is always there! Food: It was THE MOST DELICIOUS meal I had in a while! We ordered many different meals as we both didn't want to cook tonight and felt like trying something different. I am obsessed with their Mantoo .. it's these savoury beef dumplings with an amazing sauce to die for it was Deeelicious. We tried their chicken soup for the first timee and boy was it bursting of flavour. I definitely recommend it when you come try the place out. The Lamb shank wow I wish there was more lamb as it was cooked so perfect.. it literally fell off the bone and it was amazingly tender.. left a mouth watering flavour in my mouth!!! Their rice , lamb, eggplant dish and everything probably on their menu is so rich in flavour I bet anything you try will leave a mark in your mouth!!! Ahaha It's unique , authentic and really worth the price. It is pricey but common its so worth it and it's not as if you have to dish out over 500$ .. You can easily leave full with just 2 entrees their portions are Huge and generous. Overall, my husband was really impressed when He tried it and we will definitely be back for more as the quality, service and food was A1 !! I definitely recommend this place for Real authentic Afghan cuisine .. you won't be disappointed!!! Cheers

    Having been recommended the place by some friends, we decided to try it out. The interior is clean…read moreand minimal with a lovely raised intimate cushion-seating area on the side (great for groups). We ordered the Samosa Chaat to share as starters which was plenty and probably the best we have had in Montreal. For our mains, we had the Lamb Karahi (the most popular dish as mentioned by the waitress) and Chicken Jalfrezi. The chicken jalfrezi was delicious and a good portion. However, having tried many a Lamb Karahi, I was not impressed with the quality of the meat and the taste. The pieces of lamb were large and mainly fat/bones - not what you would expect of a traditional lamb karahi. On the plus side, the Naan bread was perfect and always came fresh and hot so that was great. Prices are reasonable and the location is quite convenient (there is some parking directly in front of the restaurant). Overall, good experience and will most probably return but will not be ordering the Lamb Karahi this time.

    We came all the way here from Plateau (an hour long journey) to have their famous Mutton Karahi…read more We were four Pakistanis and were excited for some authentic Pakistani food. We ordered 1/2 Kg Mutton Karahi, 1/2 Kg Chicken Karahi, Palak Paneer, Chicken Seekh Kebab, Fish Pakoras and Chai. Oddly enough for something that is their most popular item, the Mutton Karahi was average. It was mostly bones and almost no meat, definitely not half a kg and tasted alright. The Palak Paneer and Chicken Seekh Kebab were 100% reheated and tasted like food that had gone bad. The Chicken Karahi was excellent. Tasted fresh, flavourful and authentic. Fish pakoras were good and fresh. Tea was authentic Chai. The server was chirpy and very helpful. She was interactive and her excitement was contagious. Part of the reason this rating is three stars and not two is because of her! The restaurant was clean and comfortable. However for a place where the food is so Hit or Miss, I would not recommend it to others.
