Kundah Hôtel

Google lists this place as an Indian restaurant, and while the menu is Indian-inspired, it is clearly more of a fusion concept rather than authentic Indian cuisine. The waitress did inform us upfront that the food is fusion, which we appreciated. We didn’t have a reservation but were able to get a table for four without much difficulty. The place seems quite popular with locals and feels more like a pub-style restaurant with an Indian twist. The ambience is lovely, with plenty of plants and a warm atmosphere. The service was excellent — attentive and friendly throughout our visit. The only small suggestion would be to keep the music slightly more mellow to enhance the dining experience. As for the food, we ordered chapathis, dhal, channa curry, and tandoori cauliflower. The chapathis were quite small and not properly baked. The dhal was sweeter than expected, while the channa curry was decent. The tandoori cauliflower was disappointing — it felt more steamed and al dente rather than properly tandoor-roasted, with minimal spices. It did have an interesting combination of blueberries with mint and jeera/ajwain, which was unique, but overall lacked depth of flavor. The prices are on the higher side for what is offered. The portions are really very small for the price, which was disappointing. Street parking is available but can be difficult to find. The service was very quick and the staff were friendly. Overall, it’s a good spot for those looking for a fusion-style, low-spice Indian experience in a pleasant pub-like setting, but definitely not ideal if you’re expecting authentic Indian flavors and spicy food..

The atmosphere, the service and the cocktails were great. It’s an earthy vibe with natural money tree plants and tan wood furniture. The staff is very friendly and prompt and the cocktails were tasty. Other than that, the food was mediocre. It seems very popular and highly rated with a Michelin mention so had higher expectations and was definitely underwhelmed. The shrimp ceviche was chewy and the bhel was stale, the lamb korma was tangy? the meat was tender but It was so tangy that I was very confused, the side of rice was either undercooked or stale cause It was crunchy. The mushroom pakora and chicken momos were good. Nothing fancy If you’ve had really good Indian fusion food from the US: NY, PA, DE, MD, NJ; London areas; I think you’d feel the same underwhelm. Their reservations are also mostly sold out. Honestly felt like we could have just tried a local spot instead of coming back on a day they had reservations available for last seating. Just my personal taste and preference! Deff try It out cause maybe we went on a bad day

Tried tasting menu for $50 p/p. Loved the whole experience. They were very generous with the variety of dishes and packed left over to bring back to the hotel. Great service. My favorites were pork belly vindaloo (pork had good smoky flavor and tender), creamy spinach sauce with cheese, fritters, eggplant with cashew (spicy), another eggplant dish, butter duck, and carrot salad. As I am writing the review I am cross checking the menu on the website and some of them are not on the menu so I might have to do tasting menu next time as well. Highly recommend it.

We just tried the tasting Menu and loved it. Always love to come back to this restaurant for their Indian food with twist. Hats-off to whoever thought of something extraordinary… and the chefs who recreated those with absolute perfection.

I had a great dinner with family. I found their tasting menu to be a deal for the quantity and quality, and it allowed us to enjoy most of their dishes. Their staff were very friendly and happy to accommodate dietary restrictions. Everyone had a lovely experience!

We just had our very first Michelin dining experience at Kunda Hotel in Quebec City, and it absolutely blew our socks off. Going in, we weren’t sure what to expect — but even with the first bites, I completely understood why Michelin exists. The meal was marked by repeated standout moments. Drinks by the glass set the tone: a Strub Riesling that was velvety, unctuous, and so smooth; and a surprise-me mezcal cocktail that left me reeling in spicy-sweet splendour. The timing was intentional. I realized that Michelin is about giving you the chance to taste something truly singular. I didn’t even know my palate was capable of registering flavors like that. The butter duck was another revelation — exceptionally prepared, rich, and full of wow. Every bite was as memorable as the last. It wasn’t just a meal; it was an experience that left our faces contorted in fresh expressions of amazement. Absolutely delicious. Honestly, incredible.

Amazing Michelin-star dining experience! We had Argousier Puri, samosa chaat, and Palak Perron — every dish was bursting with authentic flavors. The highlight was a custom non-alcoholic drink made fresh by a lady with a tattoo — a mix of ginger and root beer — absolutely incredible! The service was attentive, the atmosphere was elegant, and the creativity in both food and drinks made it unforgettable. Highly recommended if you’re in Quebec City!

Eloise was awesome! My party of 5 had such a fun time at Kundah! We had the tasting menu and Eloise was able to give us great suggestions despite dealing with several different dietary preferences and allergies. The food was delicious, the butter duck and dahl were favorites of our party. Highly recommend this place if you are looking for excellent Indian food in Quebec City.

Really wanted to like this place but unfortunately it's overhyped. It's marketed as a modern quebec take on Indian food and the food was very good, but it was also very small portion size wise Reservation only, walk-ins are limited and it seems like it's marketed as an upscale dining experience for birthdays and special events. Service was extremely slow despite us being there at an off peak time and we felt like our server was trying to upsell us on the tasting menu Worst part was we ordered the samosa chaat which was really just 2 samosas with sauce drizzled on them and when I looked at the review pictures, the dish we got was definitely skimpy and missing half the food we were supposed to get. Would not come back here

It was -10° and walking into this place was truly like walking into a beautiful warm family run spot like I'd imagine in India. We sat at the bar and the manager guided us through an amazing eating and drinking experience. Got the tasting menu which I would highly recommend and some really nice drinks. He was super funny and chatty and really made us feel special. Definitely worthy of their Michelin mention.

We had an incredible experience! As the website says this is fusion not traditional Indian. Alex the owner took care of us along with Martin and the rest of the wonderful team. We did the Discovery menu which gave us the opportunity to try many dishes. We loved every single dish but our tops were the paneer, the cashew sauce on the side of lamb kebabs and the eggplant (said my husband that doesn't prefer eggplant.)

Indian-Quebec fusion restaurant. Best dish we had was Palak Perrone (palak paneer - poutine fusion). Rest of our food was not as well "fused". Chapatis were mere half cooked tortillas in my opinion. Clean flavors overall, but lacked the complexity I expected. If you expect a lean towards authentic Indian food flavors, then you will be disappointed. Good ambiance. Small portions. Slow service.

We visited this wonderful restaurant on vacation, and it was the best meal I've had all year. The staff were amazing and so knowledgeable not only on the menu, but the spirit of the restaurant, and did such a great job setting the stage for the meal. The curated drink recommendations could not have been more delicious, and each dish was truly magical. We had the momos, tikka tikki chaat, shrimp curry (they were out of fish), and scallop curry, with roti. I'm still dreaming of this dinner. If it's possible for the ambience of a restaurant to make you feel "cooler" just by sitting in it, Kundah Hôtel is certainly that place. Merci Kundah!!! Je rêve de votre cuisine en Californie!

When we checked in. We were surprised by not seeing any Indian chef. This set our tone from the beginning thinking how this could be an Indian restaurant. Sorry for having a prejudice here but I have not come across such setup. Then came the next disappointment as the server walked in with limited menu it was only 1 page and there were only few vegetarians and vegan dishes to choose from. We talked to ourselves let's bailout may be just order few things like an appetizer and bounce to some other place. So we placed an order for "pakora" and "samosa chat". Server asked me a question is that enough for three of you and I said yeah. Then comes the googly of our evening. The pakora was refreshing and chaat was with a twist the samosa was not like readymade that we generally get in all Indian restaurants, We were bowled over. We ordered everything that was on the menu as vegetarian and vegan. It was amazing experience. The flavor was rich and infused with creativity. They used many different produce to come up with Indian recipes that are very unique take for an example a gol gappa was total winner Palak was really good, Bharta was outstanding. The tawa roti was very small and I could feel like I can have 15-20 off those. It was wonderful experience to end our trip on happy note and belly full of good Indian food. God bless you guys keep up cooking good food. Next time when I come to Quebec I am going to see you guys without taking any chance. Au revoir! till then
