It was a good experience eating Indian food out there in Montreal. Thanjai is good place and provide good variety of indian dishes. We had ordered dosas and they were truly great in taste.
Thanjai is one of the few great indian restaurants in Montreal. It’s always busy and I doubt they take reservations. We tried their masala dosa, idli sambar and chicken 65 and everything was very delicious. Their service is a bit slow as it’s always crowded. Other than that I recommend this place if you crave for some good South Indian food!
I ordered potato baji and chilli chicken as appetizers, potato stuffing inside was cold, and big chunks of roasted chicken breast and chopped raw vegetables (Capsicum, onions, and fresh green chilli) dipped in chilly sauce. Order Lamb kothu parota, and I found some unidentifiable black warm kind stuff, when I inquired about it they said it rice grains, which made me puzzled how come rice grain in parota?. The one star ⭐️ is for mango lassi.
This is one of the goto places for Indian-Chinese in Montreal. Though they specialize is South Indian cuisine, the Biryani, Naan, Manchurians are very good. We had two kinds of Dosa, very crispy and Sambar was amazing. We liked the Manchurian as well. The service is friendly, totally a good place to hang out with family and friends for a peaceful dinner. P.S. Good to reserve it advance as this place tends to get crowded easily.
Indian food cravings satisfied.. thanjai serves perfect Indian cuisine tasty treats for those foodies who drool on Indian food .. vada sambar dip was yummy 😋.. also the chicken masala dosa was crunchy with chicken masala fillings which tasted just on point done so right .. the ambiance is a little flashy and the prices seems to be high too
But the taste of Indian dishes when you have big cravings is worth it... overall 7.5/10

When you travel abroad, you look for places which offer similar cuisines as in India and when in Montreal, you woudn't have to go far and just visit Thanjai which offers some awesome lipsmacking South Indian dishes. We ordered Chicken Manchurian for starters, Chicken Kothu, Rava Masala Dosa and Chicken Biryani. The chicken manchurian was had that Indian-chinese flair and smelt perfect. Having a dish in Montreal which we drool on back in India was really awesome. The manchurian had the right amount of sauces, spices and was cooked really well.
The rava masala dosa was another standout dish, dosa being served so well in a different country was really surprising to see. The masala tasted authentic and the crispiness of the rava dosa was just perfect. The chicken kothu was something that I tried for the first time, its nothing but chicken and paratha crushed and cut together and mixed with spices and served hot. The kothu was really well cooked and spiced really well, the chicken was tender as it was cut into bits , I had heard about the dish but hadn't had the chance to have it in Bangalore, being a dish which I had for the first time and having it in Montreal, made the experience even more exceptional.No, being a biryani lover, I have tasted a hell lot of biryanis so tryin a biryani abroad was something different, but, the biryani rocked it. The biryani was cooked in a very authentic way, spicyness can be customised as per your choice as they generally serve it a bit spicier. The rice wasn't really basmati but tasted really good as it was cooked to perfection. Overall an awesome experience at an Indian Joint abroad. When you're visiting montreal and want to try some Indian delicacies, this has to be one of your choices.

Very interesting to taste authentic south Indian food. The Paper thin Dosa is delicious. Took the Lamb thali to try their food. Not too spicy, but very flavourful. The owner came to see if all was as expected and he explained their process for the kitchen and food. Thank you. We'll be back for sure
This is the definitive dosa destination in Montreal.
Excellent value, great food, consistent and delicious. We get there about once a month. Lunch is easier than dinner; on busy nights, the wait can be an hour!
My favorite Indian restaurant which serves amazing south indian dishes. The dishes are as authentic as they could be and delicious. Have been there on many occasions and never disappoints. Must visit if you want to taste true indian food in Montreal.
