We recently stopped over for lunch at Dera and had their Biryani and Dahi bada. And we ended the meal with their Chai.The positives were that its halal and the dahi badas were great.Biryani was ok not the typical taste of Pakistani Biryani.Chai was too much doodh and less tea leaves. Not a good cup of tea sadly. ๐Overall their serving size was great.Strangely they never checked our vaxicode which is required of eating out at restaurants.
Amazing food! Perfect spice proportion in all meals that I have tested so far. Lamb quality is the highest I have tested in all Pakistani restaurants I have visited so far. Perfect for family events, dates or even a business meeting. Ill go back there certainly
Great place to dine-in or take-out .Could improve seating arrangements as to 4 people per table. I am normally alone but have to take a seat of six or more. Food quality, specially naans are mmmmm !
Visited last year. Price and quality was awsome.Visited this year 2021, Oct. Price increased so much and quality degraded.
I ordered 5 items on uber eats from here.1) Lahori Paya, I ordered two and only received one. The taste was ok2) Tandoori shrimp: You will get 6 small rubbery shrimps for 12 CAD also the shrimps were not very tasty.3) I ordered Fish fry and probably this is the only good item for this order. The fish was pretty good and it was value for money4) Ordered rasmalai and received a bowl of white creamy soup which I thought looked like rasmalai, so after finishing my meal when I thought it would be desert time, I was shocked to see that the white creamy thing was actually RAITA (sour yogurt)So my rasmalai was also missing. This was really careless how come you completely miss two items? Very much dissapointed. Attached the creamy raita picture
We have been to many desi restaurants. This was probably the worst one. They gave us naans with butter on it and we ordered paratas. The service there is horrible. They only have 1 person serving Atleast 10 tables at a time. It will take forever for them to serve you. HORRIBLE SERVICE.
I donโt know how they did it but recently the food is so good!! Itโs fresh and super tasty. My fam and I went there twice this Month and I went once last month, no disappointment !!! It was really good!! โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ hope it says this way
The place has lost some of its appeal. The food is good but they have to clean the place a bit. The washroom area needs cleaning and some reno work
Iโll start off with appetizers like we do in a restaurant:We ordered Reshmi tikka and Paneer tikka masala and both were terrible. Reshmi was uncooked and paneer was heated up.Main course was not bad both chicken and lamb items were fine but nothing exceptionalAnd for some reason, we got rotis and naan with our appetizer which I donโt understand why and even the dough wasnโt done properly.Lastly, i ordered masala tea and had to spit my first sip.Overall, horrible experience
This restaurant used to have delicious dishes. I went here many times. Many people used to ask me why do I eat here as they never had a good experience. Unfortunately, today I would say the same thing. I ordered chicken soup, fish pakoras. I ate these things before many times but today it was a disaster. None of the food tastes like food, tasted more like nothing. I rather have a granola bar than eat here ever again. Im not even a fan of granola bars so imagine how horrible the taste was. Please save your money from being wasted here.
Sep 26th 2021.Food 7 out of 10Servic 0 out of 10Rates too highServing time more than an hour, very slow
Excellent food and presentation. Especially Raman deserves an appreciation with her customer service skillls. She was very courteous and impressive.
I love the food. great service.Friendly staff nice behaviour best for desi food i will recommend this restaurant
Worst vegetarian food i have ever tried. Paneer was like rubber couldnโt even break it. Quantity was very less.I will never go back to this restaurant
I ordered chicken pulao for pick up. I went there, I paid and they said mecto wait for it. When they gave it to me I noticed that packing was different. I checked it right away and it was something else. I told her that I didnt ordered this. She started behaving rude and she said that we changed it for our customers. I said that sorry whatever meat it is, I dont want to eat it. Please change it. She refused to change it. Than I said her to refund the money and she again refused. So I left the food there and she didnt refunded me the money. please check your food always before paying.
Absolutely the best Pakistani restaurant in Montreal. Excellent service and food.
Great taste. Service is also good. Try their Nihari, not much oily.
One of the best pakistani food in Montreal. Best Lahori chargha (chicken steam roast) I have eaten in a while.
The restaurant has good ambience but the food does not taste authentic. Maybe they should hire a better chef.
The food is quite good most of the time but their service is really bad.
Very nice servicebut breakfast was not good
Authentic taste, enjoyed every dish ordered - Karahi, Butter Chicken, Seekh Kabab, Chicken Corn Soup, Lamb meat thaal and TEA. Hope to try some more on our next visit to Montreal.
Visiting Montreal for a month. Tried a couple of things alreadyand gonna give some insights.HALEEM - DONOT ORDER HALEEM. It wasnt HALEEM, it was something else. Got my stomach upset..Beef biryani- wasnt Biryani, colourd rice with some beef pieces.Seekh kabab was OK.Kabab masala was not as described in the menu. In their menu it appears the kabab masala is karahi style but it was Seekh kabab in butter chicken gravy.Nihari was OK with a lot of useless pieces, mostly bones. Got stomach upset after that as well.They really need to work on their menu and items. Not a good representation of pakistani food.
Never try there kabab very bad food quality
I ordered food through skip the dishes, food taste like sick people, in curry there is only boiled chickpeas without tadka. Worse
They take forever for a mango lassi. I asked why it was taking so long, they said you shouldve called beforehand.... for a mango lassi
Nihari & naan & fish pakora & lahori chana was okayKabuli rice was horrible....Good gappy taste badChana chat taste badService was very slowHope they will improve food qualityGood luck to them
Raman was super nice and patient. She was friendly and the service alone made us look forward to the good we ordered. Keep it up : )
One of the best Pakistani food I have eaten in whole Canada. Dal murgh is just โค๏ธ. Mutton chicken karhai ๐. Full marks to Naan ๐Must try if you are in Montrรฉal
Extremely bad management, I called them around 9:20pm to reserve the table, the lady told me no need to reserve you can come, as closing time is 11pm, just try to come before 10pm. I drove all the way from Lasalle to the Restaurant and reached by 10:03pm but they refused to consider dine in. They should inform over the phone or prebook to avoid the hassle.
Great and authentic food ! Strongly recommend.
Pakistani food. Excellent place for enjoying Pakistani food.
Excellent food! Washroom should be improved.
Very delicious food, very nice personnel and very cooperative owner of the restaurant.
Worst food i am sorry to say but the food is not worth it at all i have very bad experience . Not recommend at all
I tried dahi bara had it not been 3 dollars I would have come back and asked for refund. It was not good .
Worst restaurant iโve ever been recently i got food poisoning from it it was rotten meat 30$ plate mix of meat and never order the foods from here and the service. was really slow and rude.
I always get a good service whenever I go. Its been my favorite restaurant and my go to place for the past 6 years and im always please with the food. Today I was served by Raman and she was the sweetest :)
One of the finest Indian Cuisine in Montreal.Taste which makes you wonder in a world of spices...amazing
They have a wrap for 4 or 5 dollars and its delicious.
One of the best food experiencesI love the mixed grill platterThe butter chicken and boneless birianiAbsolutely delicious
Pathetic food and pathetic service.Will never order again from Dera restaurant.Totally disappointed..Dont waste your money on tasteless food..
Very Nice Food & Great Customer Service From Raman . She is very Nice & Very Helpful .
Tried biryani here as friend recommended. Biryani tasted bland the meat was old, could smell the rot. The size of the biryani serving was surprisingly small for its price. Dissatisfaction is an understatement. Never going back or letting anyone I know go again. Simply waste !
45 min wait and we got cold food and it wasnโt tasty.
Delicious....fresh..& clean.
Very bad service ! I ordered Haleem they send me paya ! Really bad ! Too much attitudes! Owner should look around better ways to keep their customers happy !Indian service girls donโt know how to talk to customer! Very very bad server !
I ordered 12 Nan and they asked me for 30 minutes but they gave me in 50 minutes, Very poor Service
Really good but can do better
Boneless lamb Karhai was amazing.Pani puri was goodBiryani - I am so sorry. Tasted like boiled rice to me.Chai is 8/10Their Service was amazing ๐ค
I was trying to eat in peace and there is this dude seems to be a responsible in the restaurent listening to his Indian radio very loud.. he was on the other side of the restaurent and it felt like he is sitting beside me, this is how loud it was.. there is always something weird happen everytime i come hereSlow service.. dirty dishes and spoons forks knifes. Prices got increased ridiculously..
Tasteless foodUnprofessional cook (put cilantro on cream dishes)
Without Mumtaz they are confused
It was nice to go after a very long time. The staff was taking precautionary measures.
Best food ever. Never had food like that in a long time. Thank you.
Lil but okey just
Nice food and nice service.
Quite simply, among the most disgusting and rotten food weve ever been served.From the exterior, it looks like a secluded, corporate law office. The interior is clean enough and has a banquet hall feel.Upon seating, which was easy because the place was empty, we noticed immediately that all of the cutlery and glassware was filthy. Photos attached, we were shocked and had them replaced.We ordered simple, standard dishes we were familiar with and it came fairly quickly. But the shock was instant...The chicken samosas were piping hot - and one bite revealed that they were VERY rancid. The odor (stench really) was so strong it almost made me gag and I had a mouth full it!We told the server, she took them away. Another dish she brought out (we dont know what it was, we didnt order it) was supposed to make up for the foul samosas. It didnt. We stirred it around in the bowl and it was just so unappealing that we didnt touch it. The butter chicken had clearly been from frozen and still was barely edible. We both had the distinct impression it came from a can.Overall one of the worst dining experiences weve had. Filthy tableware, rotten meat portions and canned dishes are shameful.We caught a peek inside the kitchen and almost threw up. We left and they insisted on charging us for food a dog wouldnt eat. Never, ever again.Dont let the grand ballroom styling fool you. Tbis dump needs to be shut down, immediately.We are big fans of Indian food but this experience almost killed it for us.For real Indian food and an incredible treat, go to Maharani just a few blocks away.
Bad experience. Tandoori roti is very bad.totally bad
Good food
Good Biryani
They have to me more clean but food is good
This place donโt even deserve 3,7 stars! I had twice bad experience like i ordered kashmiri tea and it tasts really bad like the milk smell was so giving me feel to vomit ๐คฎThe chicken roll sandwich was so dry and not easy to eat and the chicken samosa was worst the chicken was not cooked well so the smell on uncooked chicken was really bad!!!The only tasty food i received was onions kulcha A NAAN basicallySorry but SANA RESTAURANT just on the next door is much much better!!!
Nice place nice food
This place has great food and service,I just personally find the set up is a bit weird but canโt really complain! They have amazing naanโs Pakistani style and their fish pakoras and wow! Also order the Chciken corn soup not many south Asian Restos offer this dish or make it right but these guys just know exactly how to do it! If you havenโt given this place a shot yet, check it out itโs worth the drive and experience !
Very yummy
Their chicken biryani is not so amazing . When you order a take a takeaway biryani with them, there is more rice n small pieces of chicken . I donโt think I can order with them anymore.
Very good Pakistani restaurant, food is excellent specially chicken karahi, very comfortable and good service. I would recommend this restaurant
Good food, beautiful ambience and good customer service.Whenever anyone goes there. Whole chicken chargha for sure.
Staf was cooperative, atmosphere was nice.Shrimp baryani was so worst and kabab was not grilled properly, chicken Tikka was fine . I visited first time but disappointed ๐ฅ
A very bad Experience of Food. No Taste, Even they dont know ABC Of cooking food. Wastage of Money and Time, Behavior of the Staff is very rude and unprofessional. I will not go there again.
Waited 30 minutes for Biryani, order ahead if you dont want to wait for a ridiculous amount of time.
Staff was never friendly and does not take take out orders properly. The guy who works there seems to be so rude. Im really not satisfied
Worst restaurant ever the cashier cancled my uber order on purpose on the last moment. She called to remove one item which was unavailable but removed all items eventually canceling the order all together. Very bad service expected better.
Sometimes good sometimes bad
Delicious food at pretty good prices. I really love their lamb and chicken dishes. The ones with sauce are usually the tastiest!! The service is pretty quick and kind staff. Definitely recommend this place if you like some spice in you life :b
Testy food, good service, reasonable price, 100% satisfy
Fish, chargaa, Biryani, Beef and chicken Kabab were delicious and very good. Chicken chilli was average
Food was great! Very tasty. Curry lamb, spinach and cheese, lentils and naan was perfect, not burnt. Very friendly servers. Very pleasant experience. Will return. Reasonable prices.
Love the food, Authentic Pakistani food, Must try their Nihari and Paya, totally recommended
The worst service ever.... if you call forget none can speak English or Urdu these people have no communication skills...
Most likely the best Desi food I have tried in Montreal! Everything on the menu is fantastic.Will definitely visit every time Iโm in Montreal.
Perfect restaurant with perfect food and environment. Beautiful place. And prices are reasonable
Great service in pandemic nice fresh tastey Food
Excellent food and great service

If u want the best pakistani food this is the best place in montreal๐
Tasteless food and not worth
