La Porte de l'Inde - Montréal

Ok this food is delicious but unfortunately our group had a hard time focusing on that when the service was poor. One member of our group has a peanut allergy and his girlfriend lucky tried his food first and bit into a peanut! Also another couple got their entrees but the rice they ordered never came. They had to ask for the rice 3 times. By the time it came the rest of us were finished eating. Overall the food was amazing but the service really needs some work. For those with celiac disease, all gluten free minus obvious things like the naan bread.

We ordered food last night and were told there would be a 45 minute delay. After 2 hours, still no sign of our food. We called twice and were told it would come quick. The second time, I was transfered to the manager who didn't speak French, which is abnormal for a restaurant manager in Montreal. He said there was nothing he could do. First off, he could have told us the truth : we're really busy, it might be very long. I think he simply forgot us. Then, just as the delivery guy rolled up, he was called by the manager and given grief to hurry up, when the food had actually left the store late, it wasn't the delivery guy's fault. When I said it was the first and last time I'd order, he simply said : OK instead of trying to say sorry, offering up a better delivery next time, a free nan, anything... Very sad.The food was good though, although the nans we're all moist from waiting too long in the bag and the pappadum was simply in a plastic bag, all broken up.

I'm not sure when this restaurant was established but I have seen only a handful of reviews on this location.

A quick prawn patia delicously spicy and fragrant and a lamb malabar, orange and almondy and saucy.

Perfect lunch place! Lunch specials, starts with soup and finish with desserts & coffee.
