Exceptional Service and Delightful Indian Cuisine at Dawat I recently had the pleasure of dining at Dawat in Montreal, and I must say, the experience exceeded my expectations in every way. One of the standout aspects of our visit was the incredibly swift service. We were in a bit of a hurry, and the staff at Dawat went above and beyond to accommodate us, managing to serve our entire order within just 10 minutes. While I’m sure such rapid service may not always be the norm, it certainly left a lasting impression on us. Now, onto the food—each dish was nothing short of perfection. We started with the fish pakora, which was an absolute delight. The pakoras had the perfect amount of crunch, and the accompanying chutney was a flavor-packed complement that elevated the dish. The mutton curry was another highlight of the meal. The mutton was cooked to tender perfection, with the rich, aromatic gravy infusing every bite with deep, satisfying flavors. It’s clear that a lot of care goes into the preparation of their curries, as the depth of flavor was truly remarkable. The dal makhani was just as impressive. It was creamy, well-seasoned, and had the comforting, hearty taste you’d expect from this classic dish. The palak paneer was another winner; the paneer was soft and fresh, while the spinach gravy was flavorful and well-balanced. Every dish we ordered was outstanding, showcasing the authentic flavors of Indian cuisine with precision and care. From start to finish, our experience at Dawat was top-notch, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a delicious Indian meal in Montreal.
The chicken wraps are delicious, filling and well worth the price. The bread is fresh and chewy with a generous amount of chicken and garnished with lettuce and sauce. The interior is the restaurant is very small with only a few tables but definitely worth the trip to go and eat here.
I stopped by this place hoping for a flavorful Indian meal, but unfortunately, it was a mixed bag. Aloo Gobi was very oily - I mean, I like a good sauce as much as the next person, but this was like drowning in it. Paneer Tikka Masala was just average, nothing special to write home about. And Naan was a letdown, dry and chewy instead of soft and fluffy. Overall, it was an average experience. Stay away from this restaurant unless you like oily messy food.
Great service ! All food tasted amazing. We recommend trying their butter chicken with a garlic naan. The best Indian restaurant in the West Island !
This place is extremely welcoming, the atmosphere is heartwarming and the staff is the nicest I’ve met. The food at Dawat way better than every other Indian restaurant’s food by a large margin. The prices are very affordable for the quality of the food, I really suggest you go there and try it for yourself.
Dawat is absolutely amazing ! 🥰The service is fantastic, the staff are the sweetest, their food truly is authentic food from India and yes they do speak Hindi 🇮🇳 since the owners and the staff are from there ! The ambiance is cute and nice and you get a welcoming feeling ! I highly recommend this place! My favorite foods from this restaurant definitely has to be the lamb curry, the palak paneer, chicken tikka, tandoori chicken and the samosas! By the way, they serve good portions! 👍
Absolutely adore this spot! Service is top-notch, food is reasonably priced, and the establishment is spotless. I can't recommend it enough. If you go, the butter chicken roll is a must-try – it's my personal favorite. 100% would suggest to friends and family.
What a delicious dinner it was . They have top notch type of lamb and chicken. I would definitely come again. The plates are very fulfiling and very generous.
Very delicious, of course I will order again and more, the order was very fast, less than 20 minutes and the quantity is rather large, I ordered the butter chicken a promotion that there was for sure uber eats and I received 2 for the price of one, I decided to eat safe place and they gave me bread because it was my first time eating here.
Chilli chicken roll 0/5 don t waste your money if you buy then throw in garbage
Food is not tasty specially chilli chicken it is frozen A very bad experience we ordered for the first and last time. Food
The food is very delicious but the service and wait times are terrible, we called for a pickup 20 minutes in advance thinking that we would get our order as we get there. It took 40 more minutes of waiting for our food. You d think that they would give a discount for waiting so long but all they gave us was a cup of juice for an 80 dollar order.
Amazing food
Food too expensive
The pure taste of Punjab is here, I love it
Very yummy!
Excellent halal Indian food. The spices are perfect, the chicken in the poulet au beurre and tikka masala melts in your mouth. We like this place because the dishes aren t too oily compared to other Indian restaurants in the Montreal area. The prices are competitive and they often have 2-for-1 specials. Definitely a must-try.
Nice food and good price
Delicious, definitely worth the drive 10/10 Food
Best food best service and delicious food.
Food is amazing here
Excellent !
Good
Spot on south Asian food
Just ordered chili chicken roll from work and it was HORRIBLE! I cant even take it in my hands, its all opened and theres oil everywhere. Theres only 2 pieces of chicken and the rest is bread and vegetables! Worst order ever. I dont recommend. They cant make a proper roll sandwich and poor service. Disappointed and disgusted! I couldnt have lunch today and waste of money!
their chicken 65 is literally my favourite thing in the world nothing else compares... 5 stars immediately
It s a very good restaurant we were 4 in a group and me and my friend asked that one nice women if we can get 4 meal and they told us that we can take 4 rolled chicken and gave us 20$ off and the boss is so kind that she added us a large fries for free and in only 10 min we got everything and it was so nice and tasty
Vegetarian options: Alot Food
Absolutely amazing
Going into the restaurant makes people cry. Food is amazing and service is even better, simply be nice and they will serve you like kings Vegetarian options: Almost all their menu is vegetarian Kid-friendliness: Very very respectful
Amazing food, amazing service, and incredible ambiance. Only thing I would have preferred is a bit more space while eating and for the onions to be cut elsewhere from the entrance of the kitchen, because it hurts everyone s eyes.
Very good Indian restaurant. Best butter chicken. Yummy . The casier is also Very welcoming
Best Indian restaurant
Great food and friendly staff. The seating area is very limited and nothing to write home about. But the food is worth the trip. While I was there, there were many people getting takeout. I can see why thats chosen as the primary option.
I take my food delevery i dont know about service and atmosphere
Great restaurant with good food and friendly service!
A little hole in the wall that serves up really good Indian food at a very decent price. They have some of the best butter chicken Ive ever had and theyre spiced potatoes are delicious.

Good food at very reasonable price.
This was incredible food . I eat here often and never disappointed. They are very consistent in the quality of the food. Price is very very good comparing with other luxury franchises out there.
Wonderful pleasant staff and fresh tasty food, both vegetarian and chicken!! Small but cozy. **Leftovers were still delicious!!
This is my second time visiting restaurant for pick up. They always taker longer to make the food than the time they tell us. This time they said it will take an hour to make food and it s not ready on time. I understand you are busy but let the clients know how long it actually takes. I ve been waiting for an extra hour now. They took 2 hours to make the food. Very disappointed.
I really suggest everyone to visit Dawat Restaurant I truly liked the food it was authentic in taste and no extra masala s. The service was excellent. Food : 5/5 |
The food is absolutely delicious and prepared perfectly. The quantities are very generous and the meat is cooked perfectly. The food is so tasty you won t leave a single drop in the bowl. I tried many different items on the menu and they are all terrific. Everything feels and tastes home made. Perfectly balanced all around. Amazing option to pick up for a good comfortable meal. Vegetarian options: Many vegetarian options and vegetarian substitutes for meat. Parking: Parking lot in front of the building
Butter chicken is very good. The place is very clean. Staff very friendly. Their food never disappoint.
Great food. Palak Paneer and Butter Chicken is fantastic.
Flawless. The Tandoori chicken is addictive.
To much costly according the food quality
Food was simply delicious, spice level was perfect, service was friendly, cannot find anything to complain about
Best butter chicken ever!!
DAWAT? More like DA YUM! Best food ever.
Amazing food and people ! Vegetarian options: Veggie & vegan options! Food : 5/5 |
Exceptional Food and people ! I ll Definitely Recommend :)) 7 stars
Very good Desi restaurant. In Montreal Canada.
Very delicious food and friendly staff
Great food... Great ambience, and good price!
Dined in and Ordered combo, and it was inconvenient to eat from a plastic packaging plate. There wasnt much of a variety in the combo (curry, salad, fried potatoes, naan & rice), the curry was salty. Not recommended! Additionally, had rasmalai, this def is a must if you have a sweet tooth!
Very good service and food. I highly recommend this restaurant.
The food was so good, and the receptionist(Rawinder ji) was so cherish and cheerfull..
Very good food, liked the butter chicken gravy, quantity was very good with the reasonable price
Very good food and clean place!
The food there was outstanding. Would recommend this place!!!
The butter chicken is excellent and the service is fantastic. There is lots of love put into their craft!
I loved this place. We tried the Kulche and Chana combo and Chole bhature. They were amazing. Rabindar, the girl at the counter, was super nice. She was very kind and super friendly not only to us but all the people came for takeout. We will definitely come to this place again and again. Deserves a 5star for sure.
Yesterday I visited Dawat restaurant for the first time and had a fantastic experience. The restaurant is not very spacious but the food was delicious and authentic, with a wide variety of options to choose from. The flavors were well-balanced, and I have to say they serve the best Chhole Kulche in Montreal. The service was also top-notch. Ravinder was incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed and going above and beyond to make us feel welcome. She is a great host and made our visit even more enjoyable. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a great Indian dining experience.
Their food is awesome, and they are very polite,service with a smile
I had 1 bad exeperience in 10 times
No service for take out customer. The lady on counter who work on Saturday she is very rude
Best quality food in Montreal Vegetarian options: Delicious taste Parking: +40 cars
Best muthaf***ing Buuuttttaaaa chickennnmmmmmMmMmmMm come eattt someeee!!! Seriously very delicious, almost died from getting punched by a Samoa.
Randomly picked this place out of the many choices in the west island and we drove all the way from across town in the rain and slush to try it. Absolutely worth the drive! The quality and taste were excellent. Quantity, which is important for me, certainly did not disappoint. My gf and I had leftovers which rarely happens when we get take out. I was really impressed with the big cubes of fresh quality chicken in the Tikka Masala. All and all, just a perfect place for Indian at a very good price. Most of all though, we were greeted by the most friendly staff member. He took the time to explain all our choices with a smile. Highly recommended!
Food so good the best service you can find food comes quickly also and always fresh
Amazing place to dine if you want to taste real indian food definitely recommend
This place is so good If I had to eat from one last restaurant, it be here
I have ordered Shahi paneer curry and Butter Naan. Curry tastes amazing and excellent in quality and quantity.
Had a fine curry chicken biryani, latcha paratha with a paneer curry. Tastes delicious.
Hands down THE BEST Indian restaurant west of highway 15 in Montreal. It is a small operation, but dont let that fool you. It is mostly a take-out shop although there are 2-3 tables in there if you want to eat on the spot. One of the top 3 Indian kitchens in Montreal.
Food is very tasty and service is great as well. Best is channe bhature
Very delicious food and kind staff
Always good to come here, best services and good quality.
The chicken biryani, chicken curry and tandour were excellent. The lady at the reception is very nice. The only drawback is that there are not enough tables (2 tables) if there are many of you it is not recommended to have the meal inside. Its more of a delivery restaurant. Parking: A place
Great food n Service
I highly recommend!! Their mango smoothie was delicious.
price are not the same as it mentioned on google menu however the food is so good
Best indian restaurant. 10/10 for everything like customer service, food and setting
Amazing food, fast service great price and large portions, the butter chicken is truly to die for
Yummiest Indian food in the West Island
Excellent and spicy, the garlic potatoes were a great side.
Cashier was really welcoming, the Mango smoothie was great too. Good quality of food. I come Back again.
so delicious, the best indian restaurant in montreal without a doubt. completely wipes out parc extension.
Excellent food! Mango lassis very good. Special My favorite
A very cozy takeout restaurant with a limited seating capacity. Awesome ambience and super nice staff. Taste wise food is great and prices are economical too. Just 2 hours drive from Ottawa, it is going to be our stop over now for our Montreal trips.
great Indian food
We got some takeout from here and loved the food. Every thing we tried chole battoore , chicken tikka , tandoori and naan were superb. Authentic flavours and they even made some chat which was excellent. Will definitely be back to get more, so glad we found this place!
Very good authentic Indian restaurant. The restaurant doesnt look like much from the outside, but it shouldnt be underestimated. Everything is fresh and full of flavor and the naan bread is delicious. To try!!
Naan are excellent, curry is okay
My first review was 5 star because food and lady who serve food ( maybe owner) was so good. But today this girl at reception through bag of food at me and treated like she s doing some kind of favor. Need to learn some etiquette or should leave the job ASAP.
Great place. Great price for the quality of food which is usually horrible and more pricey at other bigger restaurants. Very tasty. Some meals were a little watered down. I took one of the big combo options and was impressed with the selection. Mango lassi is always a delight.
This restaurant definitely should be on your culinary list when visiting West Island, Montreal. Great service and great advice on the menu by the front desk customer service girl. Delicious & authentic indian food, outstanding service through out the sitting. We left this restaurant immensely satisfied!!!
They have a little trouble understanding our English, but that s okay. The chicken Tika roll is sick!!!
Excellent food! Outstanding quality! So courteous service! Well definitely go back even if it takes 45 minutes to get there! Well packaged, stays warm! _____________________________ Excellent food! Outstanding quality! Very courteous service! We are going back there for sure even if it takes 45 minutes to get there! Well packaged, stay warm!
Top Notch Indian Food. Quality is impeccable. Some many delicious items to try from. Vegetarian options: Indian Veg options are truly splendid! Parking: Many spots available.
Me and my friend did dine in few days ago. God I love food over here. If you miss your Mom s hand food. This is the place for you. Staff was friendly and cooperative. I can t recommend any dish because everything taste so good.
I would like to let everyone know that food of this place is scrumptious and the staff is nice as well except one of their staff member, who is extremely rude and non courteous which is extremely disappointing.
Best experience and very friendly staff. Must visit
This place has the best food you can have. Chana bhatura was very delicious and tasty. The quantity was much larger compared to the price of the dishes. Would definitely visit when I am in town.
Absolutely love the food! It s so delicious. Had me going there five days in a row. Women at the front is very nice. The chef really knows how to cook. Owner is really nice guys.Overall the whole team is nice & service is excellent. Food is always fresh!!! If you re looking for somewhere to eat, come to Dawat you won t be disappointed. So happy I discovered this place!! Thank you
Delicious
My favorite Indian food in the area. More of a take-out than eat in since the restaurant is very small. Very friendly staff. The quality of the ingredients used is obvious. Channa samosa: yes, please!
The place needs a little cleaning service but the food is amazing!!! I am very sensitive to Indian food due to various spices but even tasting 4 different meals from Dawat my stomach is still happy!!! And the taste is sooo
The best Indian restaurant in Canada!
I wish I was able to swear here, but I cant That bad Punjabi staff kept an attitude and never showed poor service. They never saw any Punjabi man getting such treatment. Never frikin come here again. Never ever just because of service of that lady people are Waiting for over an hour for there food.
The food was amazing and the staffs hospitality was exceptional. Love their biriyani , lamb curry and the mango lacchi (uff ) delicious.
Taste delicious
The food was excellent! Ravinder was amazing, she serve us with much pleasure and Joy. If you are in Montreal dont miss this place. Food
We visited there for lunch, and the food and service both were excellent. Ravinder took our order, served us and took care of everything perfectly! I thought she was the owner, because of her perfection and the way she did things with ownership, but later realised she is an employee. Good places becomes good because of good workers like her! The food was excellent too! We loved it so much that we went there again for dinner the same day! :) :)
We liked the food, service and hospitality provided by Ravinder. Definitely recommend others
Ordered thru doordash - food is very good, eventhough we ordered one dish not spicy, but i came normal.
Butter chicken and masala chicken biryani are too awesome. Tandoori items are good too. Has a very limited seating capacity in the restaurant. They have wonderful catering services too and can take bulk orders. Wish they start their delivery services towards Lasalle and downtown (not available as far as I know). But worth a drive to restaurant for butter chicken
Vegetarian options: Best Food
The clients had better sense of hospitality then the restaurant itself, we order butter chicken, lame curry and tandoori chicken even though they charged us full price we received no rice no vegetables and charged us for the bread , the most expensive I found was the mango yogurt 4$ a cup , yes I agree it was delicious mango/yogurt . Personally I wont go back there and the taste of food at spicebros was much better to my taste .
Great Indian restaurant with real taste
Such an AMAZING experience!! The most deliciousssss Indian food in town - the butter chicken and naan are to diiie for!!! RJ and the staff are truly so kind and generous, amazing customer service experience, your feel very welcomed into their home away from home We will be back very soon!! Their catering service is amazing as well!
They are best in the area with the wonderful service and food is so delicious, I really love it
Its just really amazing. The food was delicious and service was also great. Would really recommend everyone. It made me remember the real indian taste that i have really been missing since i came to Canada.
Amazing food
Ordered via DoorDash and everything was packaged well, food arrived hot and was delicious. Very generous portions as well. Would definitely get it again.
Today we had lunch at Dawat. I can say that they have the best Indian food in West Island area.
First time ordering from Dawat. We had the Butter chicken and it was Amazing! Calling to place an order was easy and delivery was fast and free. Absolutely recommend! Parking: Parking lot
Great food and great people, a must for the area!
The food made me unwell, the service was good but.
Butter Chicken is Great here! Nice little place for takeout with a few a seats, and a very simple menu full of great tasting food at moderate prices. Basically, they serve lamb, butter chicken, tandori chicken, etc.. and you can choose to have it three (3) ways, wrap, combo, or on rice. Price depends on which way you want it. This place is LONG awaited for result of a caterer (I cant spell) finally opened a mini restaurant in front of the kitchens. So, the food is very yummy, and they are willing to adjust to how hot you like it. Good Fluffy naan bread. This is a mini-strip mall, so parking is free, just a bit limited. This mall is handy for getting supper, as it includes a pizza place, and a dep. to grab milk on the way home, so everyone is happy. Parking: This is a small mall, so parking is tricky.
Excellent food and an extremely kind, friendly and very helpful owner. Were going to come back!
Delicious food, huge portions, super service, loved it! Very good prices! Food
Great food !. We ordered Garlic naan and Aloo gobi it was good, Excellent service too ! Please do check it out
Everything was delicious
Aalu wala prontha
Honestly the best food, I get cravings every couple of weeks and keep coming back!! I ve tried so many dishes and they re all amazing!
Best Desi food one can have outside India.
Best food in Montreal .
Love the food and love the lady who owns the restaurant ..superb hospitality
Best desi food one can have outside India
Great flavor! Great food and service. Well worth the drive to pick up in DDO.
Not much dine in area. Also gets behind on pickup orders
I ordered a plate of chicken kabab. She ask spicy or mild. I told her make it spicy. Unfortunately these people doesn t know the mean spicy. They sprinkle the red chili flakes on top of the kebabs.
Nice service, food is spicy and prices are good especially for catering service. Vegetarian options: Many options of vegetables and paneer(cheese) dish Parking: Many places for parking
Food was very tasty, asked for medium spice butter chicken but it seemed mild, the samosas were spicier! Would definitely still order again though.
Ok place with great service. Im not crazy about the food, like other places, but it is decent. The taste is different from what we usually get and the portion are normal.
Excellent food every time!!!!
Very stupid restaurant the prices are double than menu ones your food is done you will be being overcharged also, takes forever to make your food ready still forget to put your sauces and again you have to wait forever in line to get your sauces
Best Indian food in the west island. Amazing portion sizes. Friendly staff, clean environment and affordable prices.
Dont understand these reviews. Food is bland and they dont even server Chicken Vindaloo. You cant claim to be the best Indian restaurant when you dont serve the best dishes.
Thanks Ravinder for helping us with the food today. Amazing experience with tea and food at Dawat this place is amazing in case someone is looking for good quality Indian food
Rude receptionist
The food is really good, the best Indian food I ve found in the West Island. The samosas are delicious and crispy, the fish they use for the pakora is fresh. Their curries are good, as is their sabzi and palak paneer. Their lunch specials are also well priced for the amount of food you get, including naan, a salad, and potatoes with sauce. All in all, a good place to get Indian food in DDO.
Top 5 desi food joints around Montreal
They charged me 16$ for chicken briyani. I don t think it worth the value for the quality and quantity. Where in others offering just 11$ for the same quality and quantity. Think about it what are you doing are you want to run the business or just one time shop where no one will come back for the same again.
Hey. Today I visited this restaurant with my friends . I experienced worsed experience. The service was terrible and the front girl who did billing , taking orders, was so rude... I liked malai Kofta, but the deal makhni was so bad it tasted like an old one. I like their tandoori roti. These are super soft and tasty . The one thing which we dont like is the washroom usage. As they placed a slip on it as a the coustomer who is paying will only use it. The ambience was also not good.. This was the first time we visit the Montreal as well as this restaurant. We never would like to recommend anyone to go their. Thankx.
