AMBER

Great food quality, and big portions! You could also bring your own wine which is a plus. Service is fast and great and food is super tasty. I loved their BBQ mixed grills.

I don’t know how this place doesn’t have all 5 star reviews! It’s so good, everything we had was amazing- butter chicken, chicken korma, onion baji and the cauliflower bites. The service was great!

I was on my way to another restaurant but ate here instead because the food smelled so good from outside. It was just as good when I ordered I’m glad I made the stop. No alcohol so if you want to drink be sure to bring a in a bottle as they don’t serve alcohol. A liquor store is located very close.

The service is very good! It’s overpriced for all the food portion. The slow cooked beef and BBQ chicken are very dry and hard to chew. The naan are the best!

Went there twice. 1st time I visited the food was decent for me (not a consensus in the group). Service was good. 2nd time, for the Tuesday special menu, the onion bhaji was the best part of the meal (though a bit cold/ room temperature). The rest was subpar, especially the butter chicken. One of the worst I tasted. Surprisingly they have beef on the menu, and it was alright. Of the ones I visited, a rare indian/Pakistani restaurant that includes the rice with the meat/ main dish. If you're coming by car, parking will be hard to find as it's the case for most places in the area. Probably best to park further or use public transport.

Great atmosphere.. lights could be dimmer at 7:30 pm for late February Like the bring your own wine. Had chicken tandoori , excellent. Found out after I could order spicy version .. will definitely go back and order extra spicy .

I have loved this restaurant for a few years now. But the recent hike in prices is outrageous! Within less than a month prices increased over 40% for main dishes. I can't think of anything that would warrant such a steep and sudden change. As much as I like the food and the atmosphere of the place, I'm not sure I will ever return. The food is good, but absolutely not worth these prices.

We showed up right at 5PM for their weekday happy hour deal: order any main and get 50% off appetizers and drinks. For real, that kind of deal in Montreal feels like a unicorn. Bonus? It’s BYOB! Bring your favorite bottle or try their mocktails—surprisingly bold and worth it. Mocktail highlights: 🍍 Ginger Pineapple Fusion – Bright, zesty, and just the right kick. 🥭 Mango Virgin Mojito – Sweet, tropical, and super refreshing. Perfect sidekick to all the spicy bites. What we ate (and loved): 🥟 Chana Samosa – My MVP appetizer. Think crispy samosas loaded with spiced chickpeas, yogurt, and tangy chutneys. Like Indian nachos, but better. 🫓 Keema Naan – Fluffy naan stuffed with spiced ground meat. Tasty, but I’d ask if they could make it spicy next time! 🫓 Cheese Naan – Fluffy naan with cheese inside 🫓 Garlic Naan – Delicious with the butter chicken 🤤 🍗 Chicken Pakoras – Crispy, juicy, would love a little hot sauce with it. 🥗 Paneer, Tomato & Mango Salad – Gorgeous and fresh but a bit mild flavor wise. Wanted a bit of crunch or spice to round it out. Main dishes = full flavor mode: 🍛 Butter Chicken – Creamy, rich, and total comfort food goals. 🍤 Shrimp Karahi – Light, flavorful, and packed with peppers and onions. 🍖 Lamb Biryani – Fragrant rice, tender lamb, and cozy spice. Everything you want in a biryani. 🔥 Mixed Grill Platter – All the tikka you could want—chicken, lamb, malai, and seekh kababs. Juicy and sizzling. Perfect for sharing (or not). Sweet ending: 🍮 Cardamom Crème Brûlée – Dreamy custard with a toasty caramel top and that warm cardamom hug. The vibe? Cozy, colorful, and full of personality. The staff handled our giant order and many questions with patience and smiles. This spot is perfect for date night, squad dinner, or spoiling yourself midweek. 💡 Foxy Tip: Bring a bottle, ask for extra spice if that’s your vibe, and don’t skip the chana samosa. — Visited as part of a social media collaboration.

It is a good Indian restaurant 7 min walking distance from mont-royal metro station. Food was tasty, well presented and the service was great. The inner environment was quite good.

Yummy Indian in a beautiful space, very modern. Service was great and super friendly. Food was good but had zero spice - could have used at least a hint. The crème brûlée dessert however, was spectacular!

Amber is certainly one of the nicer Indian restaurants I've been to. Clean, very nicely decorated, and overall a lovely ambiance. And you can bring your own wine, which is a great bonus! The menu is quite extensive, mainly focused on North Indian cuisine; and the prices and portions are quite reasonable. We had the tandoori chicken legs, karahi chicken, a couple of samosas and a garlic naan. If you enjoy Indian food, then you know how unique Indian dishes can be from one cook to another. Overall, the flavours were very good, especially the garlic naan. I do think all the dishes were a little under-seasoned - salt wise. Our server brought us some salt upon request, and a little sprinkle really helped liven up the dishes. Overall the spice/heat level is on the lower end of the spectrum, but still packs flavour. It seems like they opened up fairly recently, as the servers were still getting up to speed. Regardless, they were very friendly and accommodating! Can't wait to re-visit next time we are in Montreal,

I like this place! First of all, it's BYOB and who doesn't like brining their favorite bottle of wine for dinner. The decor is super cute, it's nice enough for a date or a special occasion. The food is great and delicious, they have a lot of vegetarian and vegan options, as well as plenty of meat dishes. Friendly service so this one is a winner.

Great food at a very reasonable price and very generous portions . We tried many different plates and none disappointed . The service was friendly and warm and the ambiance was real nice with great decor . The only downside was parking but you should be able to find it on St. Laurent . If u have an option to take metro or taxi/uber then take that option . Highly recommended.

Pretty tasty Indian food. The butter chicken (4.5/5) was my favourite as it was creamy and the chicken was tender. The garlic naan (4/5) was aromatic but thicker than what I'm used to. The beef masala (3.5/5) was decent but a little spicy. The vegetable biryani (3/5) was alright but I'm not a big fan of raisins. The tandoori salmon (3/5) was okay as well but was slightly overcooked. The ambience was nice and the servers were friendly.

Very good food - blends of spices are spot on - depth of flavour. Only critique: needs more heat - the dishes are served on the very mild scale. Naan bread is spot on. Chana Samosa hits all the notes. Butter Chicken made with base of cashews - authentic. The subtleness of the spices are where it's at here. Attentive service - friendly. Very clean - superb location - BYOB only.

Great food, great value and portion size. Love the BYOB. Thomasos was as fantastic a server as you could ever hope for.
