Le 409 is a well-known Indian restaurant and bar in Montreal, praised for its excellent service, tasty cuisine, and elegant ambiance. The atmosphere is lively and vibrant, with music and conversations creating a fun environment. The restaurant offers many vegetarian options and a variety of meat dishes including fish, lamb, or chicken. Standout dishes include the butter chicken, which is smooth, well-spiced, and has a good amount of protein, and the Chicken Tikka Masala, a decadent curry that is nicely seasoned. Guests also enjoy the naan and rice, which are both steamy, fluffy, and flavorful. The garlic naan is highly recommended for its taste.
Many reviews highlight the excellent service and the atmosphere, which is very good and inviting. The décor is eclectic and fun, making the place worth visiting even just for the ambiance. However, some dishes like the mango Lassi are appreciated, but the garlic naan isn’t a typical naan bread and can be tasteless. The rice servings are small and must be ordered as a side dish, which can increase the total cost. Desserts like flan cake and donuts are available, but opinions on them vary; the flan cake is tasty but eggy, and the donuts are small and somewhat pricey.
Guests note that Lamb is a great choice, and the overall experience is positive, though some reviews mention that the menu might not be fully authentic or very spicy. The staff is kind, and service is fast, making the experience enjoyable. While Le 409 is suitable for those new to Indian food and offers a mix of flavors, it may not satisfy those seeking very authentic or spicy dishes. Nonetheless, most visitors leave satisfied, and many would return to try the butter chicken and garlic naan again. The restaurant is a good spot for a memorable meal with family or friends, but regular visits might lead to exploring other options due to limited spice levels and menu variety.
