About This Place

Nestled on the vibrant Mont-Royal Avenue in Montreal, India Rosa offers a fresh take on Indian cuisine that beautifully bridges tradition and modern flair. Specializing in Modern Indian fare, this restaurant, bar, and brunch spot has quickly become a favorite destination for food lovers seeking authentic, exquisitely crafted dishes in a stylish, inviting atmosphere.

The menu at India Rosa showcases an impressive variety that caters to diverse palates—whether you're craving the rich comfort of Butter Chicken Eggs Benedict served with fluffy Garlic Naan or the vibrant, herbaceous notes found in the Poulet Tandoori Hariyali. Their signature Brunch Vege, a thoughtfully composed vegetarian option, balances flavors and textures with finesse, while the Omelette India Rosa promises a delightful twist on classic brunch fare.

Seafood enthusiasts will find themselves enamored by the Crevettes Masala, where giant shrimp are sautéed in a luscious onion and tomato-based gravy seasoned with authentic Indian spices. Equally enticing is the Morue d'Islande à la Goan, showcasing tender cod simmered in a fragrant coconut milk curry, spiced to awaken the senses with just the right amount of heat and complexity. For those who love a good biryani, India Rosa does not disappoint, offering succulent shrimp, chicken, lamb, and vegetarian biryanis crafted with aromatic Basmati rice, herbs, and a delicate blend of spices complemented by the crunch of cashew nuts.

The culinary experience extends delightfully to their handcrafted cocktails. Innovative drinks like the Passionfruit Cocktail and Mango Breeze burst with tropical freshness, perfectly paired with the restaurant’s flavorful offerings, while classic Sangria brings a touch of conviviality to any occasion. From small sharing plates like Samosa Végétarien to mains such as the Paneer Pepper Masala, every bite resonates with the artistry and care poured into each dish.

Diners can look forward to a polished yet warm ambiance that blends contemporary design with inviting comfort—a place equally suited for an intimate date night, a lively group gathering, or a relaxed weekend brunch. As patrons like Simran Ravish attest, the food is irresistibly delicious, and the cocktails among the best in Montreal. Regular guests praise the attentive service and thoughtfully curated menu, highlighting India Rosa as a gem for both vegetarians and meat lovers alike. Even amid the energetic buzz of a busy evening, the atmosphere remains welcoming and convivial.

When it’s time for something sweet, indulge in decadent desserts like Crème brûlée infused with cardamom, or the fragrant Gulab Jamun soaked in a cardamom syrup that melts in your mouth, rounding out the meal with comforting, exotic notes.

In sum, India Rosa offers an immersive dining experience that captivates with its unique blend of authentic Indian flavors, innovative cocktail creations, and a contemporary yet cozy setting. Whether you’re discovering modern Indian cuisine for the first time or returning as a devoted fan, this restaurant promises to delight and inspire your taste buds at every visit.

    "I have visited Montreal a couple of times, and this is our go-to place for food. Sometimes a reservation is required. The food was very delicious, and the alcoholic cocktails were the best we've tried in a while. The ambiance is also pretty good."

    We had such a wonderful dining experience at Indian Rosa Montreal. This restaurant perfectly combines authentic Indian flavors with a modern, stylish atmosphere, making it one of the best places for Indian vegetarian food in Montreal. The ambiance was warm, trendy, and inviting – great for a date night, family dinner, or group outing. The staff was attentive and knowledgeable, helping us choose the best vegetarian options from the menu. We tried a selection of vegetarian appetizers, main dishes, refreshing drinks, and desserts. Every dish was flavorful, beautifully presented, and well-balanced in spices. The curries were rich and aromatic, the naan was fresh and soft, and the drinks complemented the meal perfectly. The desserts were an excellent way to end the evening, with authentic Indian flavors presented in a modern style.

    I had been to the one at Griffintown but not to this one. It did not disappoint. They have great and flavourful vegan options and nice mocktails. Plus the restaurant is beautiful and the service was excellent. The only downside is that the tables for 2 are a little bit too small (we had to move things around constantly so they wouldn’t fall) The waiter told us that half the restaurant was design for serving drinks, so I’d recommend making it clear you’re having dinner when doing reservations. And the music was a kind of loud for me (we had to speak up when talking the whole time).

    I had a pleasant experience at India Rosa. The food was delicious especially the appetizers which couldn't stop at just one. The main courses are delicious as well. There is a unique brunch menu offered on the weekends that definitely want to try next time. The location and ambiance is amazing with wonderful staff.

    Party of 3, we had a very nice dinner. The staff was amazing and so was the food. Noise level a bit high, but that was expected. We shared a variety of dishes and each one had it's own texture and flavor. In other restaurants all the dishes seem to taste the same, just some hotter or milder. This is definitely not the case at India Rosa! High quality ingredients with an attention to the uniqueness of each dish. The staff also had helpful recommendations regarding the size and selection of side dishes. We will be back, and we certainly recommend this restaurant.

    We really enjoyed our visit! The food was excellent, especially the lamb and the traditional Indian desserts, which were absolutely delicious. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, making us feel comfortable throughout the evening. The atmosphere is more modern than traditional Indian, but still very beautiful, clean, and pleasant. We would definitely come back!

    A must visit for Indian food! I got the $39 lunch menu- choice of salad/ soup, butter chicken, rice/ naan, dessert gulab jumun/ mango sorbet. 10/10 food 10/10 service - super super friendly host & server Would recommend their weekend brunch!

    A truly lovely dining experience. The Mademoiselle Rosa cocktail is a must-try! We had an amazing meal featuring the Haryali chicken, Salmon Tikka, and Icelandic cod. Don't skip the incredible Chai tiramisu for dessert. Great food and drinks all around.
