VEGAN INDIAN FOOD AT IT'S BEST!!! I'm Indian and I love this restaurant for how authentic it is! The ambiance is great, the place is super clean, and the staff is quite friendly. I ordered a brunch platter and it was served in biodegradable leaf plate and bowls. I really loved the Pongal, coconut chutney, chickpea salad, and of course the dessert (potato payasam)! The mango lassi was really good too! I'm definitely going back to try other items on their menu.

Not only the food is AMAZING, but the service is 5✨++ the owner is so attentive, carefully explains the menu everytime, makes sure everything is good and talks with all the clients. I love my experience everytime. My fav item on the menu is the Biryani, it’s soooo good. Also recommend having the desserts, they are all wow ! Love everything about this place, but especially the whole experience 🖤

Wow The flavors are insane! My friend and I went for lunch we ended up eating so much and we stayed for 3 hours!!! Couldn’t get enough The owner is so kind and lovely I will be back very soon Anybody wanting good quality food vegan healthy soulful heart warming delicious food go there NOW

So happy that this restaurant exists!! The food is absolutely delicious, freshly prepared and generous quantity. The owner is super friendly and really passionate about food and it shows! Cannot wait to visit again and try other dishes!

First, the restaurant staff is supportive and helps us explain how they prepare(without meat, chicken, or beef). The restaurant owner helped us choose suitable dishes based on our interests with explanations and ingredients. Second, what a unique and tasty experience for Vegan people. It was fantastic food served and so delicious.

The biryani was absolutely delicious. Packed with complex flavors and served in a generous portion. The service was warm and friendly. The atmosphere was serene. Can't wait to return to try more of the menu!

We had never been to a restaurant yet where we loved the food so much that we ordered some more as takeout to eat the next day. That changed today. This place has a fantastic vibe and everything about it is just right. If i had a sixth star, i would give it to the owner Abhi who is such an enthusiastic and passionate entrepreneur that we felt right at home. If you are anywhere in the Montreal area, this place is a MUST VISIT. We started with the sukku, the mango lassi and the kombucha which were different and very good. Then we had the Vegan Chicken Tikka Masala, Goan Fish curry, the grandmother’s curry with vegetables with chapatis. Then there is the Jackfruit biriyani which is out of this world. Thats the one we enjoyed so much that we ordered more to takeout for tomorrow. We polished it off with the tender coconut kheer. Man, this place is probably among my top 5 ever across the world !

Everything was so good! We had the butter chicken, grandmas special curry, and the Goan curry with shrimp. Each dish tasted so different and was absolutely phenomenal. We also had a sweet potato dessert that was really good. The owner is so kind and friendly and you can tell how passionate he is about the restaurant. I think all the dishware is compostable as well, which is a really nice initiative. You absolutely have to try this place!! I can’t wait to go back

The food, service, atmosphere all amazing! It was so serene & calming. I was so excited to order the butter chicken and I'm so happy I did. It was delicious & brought back memories of before I was vegan. The chicken byriani was amazing, so flavourful! I loved the coconut dessert as well. Highly recommend ordering the masala chai with your meal! Overall, will definitely be returning. 🥰

We went for brunch, the food was full of flavour and tasty. The tofu was delicious and the Bombay sandwich was even better. Definitely need to try the evening menu on my next visit. Highly recommend!

Wonderful experience dining at Tula during our trip to Montreal! The food was delicious - I enjoyed the Asian Style Salad and the Grandma's Special Curry. I *think* my husband had the Vegan Butter Chicken - can't recall for sure but photos are attached. I had a delicious iced tea as well. I believe it was the owner who was working and served us and he was so very kind and clearly passionate about what he does. Ambiance in the restaurant was very nice as well. We will definitely be going back to Tula next time we are in Montreal.

We were already a big fan of their restaurant in Toronto and now Tula added to our list of favorite restaurants!! The food is just too good and Abhishek’s friendliness is a cherry on top! We will be keep coming back again and again for sure!!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Tula and I have nothing but positive things to say about my experience. The atmosphere of the restaurant was welcoming and comfortable, and the staff were friendly and attentive. One of the standout dishes that I had at Tula was the fish curry, which was absolutely delicious. The flavors were perfectly balanced, with just the right amount of spice, and the texture of the dish was perfect. It tasted just as good as any non-vegan curry I've had in the past. I also appreciated the restaurant's commitment to sustainability, as the plates were made of paper and the cutlery was wooden. This not only helped to reduce waste, but also added to the rustic and cozy feel of the restaurant. Overall, I highly recommend Tula to anyone looking for a delicious vegan meal in Montreal. The food is fantastic, the staff is welcoming, and the restaurant's commitment to sustainability makes for a guilt-free dining experience.

I recently dined at Tula restaurant, and it was an exceptional experience! This place boasts an outstanding menu with a wide variety of dishes. The Tikka masala and Biryani were standout choices, bursting with incredible flavors. And when it came to dessert, the payasam was a delightful treat. However, the Biryani was the highlight of my meal – an absolute must-try. I was so impressed with Tula that I couldn't resist returning for a second visit during my 3-day trip. This restaurant is a gem, and I'll definitely be back again. Highly recommended!

Went 2 times and tried almost everything on the menue, and it’s so good ! Amazing place, everything is delicious, tasteful. Best vegan Indian food in montreal ! And the service is perfect and the owner really thoughtful and nice !

Our table ordered a multitude of dishes and shared absolutely everything. The owner, who was also one of our servers, was incredibly friendly and made many excellent recommendations. We could really feel his passion for his food.

Maybe my expectations were too high based on the 5-star average, but I had a mediocre experience at TULA. The waiter and owner were very friendly and explained the menu to us in detail; but the positives ended there. Food: It was good, but I've had better (non-vegan) Indian food. If you don't have the dietary restriction, I would go elsewhere. As mentioned by a few other reviewers, the sides (chapati and rice) were very small portions. Oddly enough, some reviews from a few months ago included pictures of curries with plenty of side dishes, including multiple salads and more than one chapati - I guess these are no longer offered. The owner encouraged us to order a few dishes to share within our group of 5, but there ended up not being enough protein in the sauces for everyone (despite each of us only taking 1 or 2 pieces). Service: Quite slow. It took about half an hour for me to get my drink, and then another half hour to get our food (which did not come altogether). Setting: The patio-like furniture was small and uncomfortable (we kept worrying that our drinks would tip between the slats of the table). As mentioned by other reviewers, the compostable dishes/cutlery were difficult to eat from and the presentation of the dishes made it challenging to share within our group (the tiny bowls could barely fit a folded-up chapati, while the dishes underneath the curry took up a lot of space; 2 people in our group ended up having to share a plate because of lack of space on the small tables). The restaurant was also very cold - they noticed when a few of us put our jackets back on and then turned up the heat. Price: I paid ~$35 total for one main curry and a hot drink. Considering I was not completely full after the meal (as I typically am at other Indian restaurants), I found this to be quite expensive. Hopefully they will improve on these points, but in the meantime, I don't think I will be returning to TULA.

Amazing Vegan Indian restaurant! So nice to have found this place and its owner Abhi! The food tastes amazing, especially the biryani. Cozy and warm place to eat. I highly recommend.

Different experience. A small cozy place and was completely busy. The owner of the place Abhishek was on wheels serving every table and explaining about every single dish calmly. It was my first time trying out vegan and it’s not so bad. It cannot definitely match the taste of non veg, but it definitely a good try. The vegan shrimp looked and felt and almost tasted the same as original shrimp. Jackfruit might not be the one for everyone but the biriyani was definitely good. Elaneer payasam was good too. Channa masala was very good too

Wow! Absolute best vegan meal I have ever had in a restaurant in this city. Exceptional service, great recommendations and food that tastes like love ! And let’s not forget the beautiful ambiance and decor, really just a marvellous experience. Cannot recommend enough.

This is one of those places that will wow meat eaters and vegans alike. This was some of the best Indian food I’ve ever had, and I’m from NYC which is full of great Indian cuisine. The entire menu was delicious, and whether you’re visiting Montréal or you live here, dining at Tula is a must. There were a lot of classic Indian dishes on the menu (for example chicken tikka masala and chicken byranni, which by the way were musts) that are veganized and full of unique and refreshing flavors. There were other dishes that were incredible which I’ve never had before, like the crispy coconut vegetables or the grandma’s coconut curry. Everything at this restaurant—the mango lassi (vegan!), the deserts, and the ambience, was perfect. The owner was serving guests and explaining his menu to them. His energy and enthusiasm was infectious, and the food came quickly and was hot. The prices are very good for the amount of food you get. Eating at Tula is an experience you won’t regret! A (very great).

My boyfriend and I went to Tula for dinner and had a memorable time. The ambiance was fantastic. The music resembled spa music which was so relaxing and welcoming. Also not too loud, so we were able to conversate comfortably without yelling. The decor was beautiful. Very green (fake plants) and serene (mandalas). The restaurant was very clean except for the bathrooms which had paper towels all over their floors. The service was wonderful. Few staff (including the owner) were serving a full house and did a great job juggling everything. The menu was explained in detail (although very fast) and the owner was very kind and welcoming. The food was quite interesting, nothing like at other indian restaurants. Tasted much healthier, used different spices. My boyfriend was slightly surprised that there were no samosas or pakoras (although we understand why, hearing the restaurant's goals). Overall good experience! :)

Went there for brunch on Diwali and they sure made sure I don’t miss India, with a vegan twist. Loved the idlies and Bombay sandwich! The mango lassie was the best I’ve ever had. Going back again for new years with my cousins! Can’t wait to try the rest of the menu! As a South Indian I definitely recommend Tula!

Greetings! We dined today, and I savored the most delectable cuisine. Our selection included elaneer payasam, vegan chicken with veggies , and vegan chicken biryani. Much appreciation—the flavors are truly exceptional!

Tula is hands down the best Indian restaurant in Montreal. The food is delicious and the ambience is super cozy! I’ve by now probably tried everything on the menu and haven’t had a single dish that wasn’t good. My all time favourite’s though are masala chai, sukku, mango lassi, Bombay sandwich, brunch platter, and elaneer paysam!

This was not only the best vegan Indian food we’ve ever tasted… but also the best Indian food we’ve ever had!! Every dish we tried was remarkably tasty. You could identify each spice used in these family recipes. The owner Abhi took the time to explain what each dish was and what his personal favorites were. He was so warm, kind and community driven, focused on promoting plant-based, accessible eating for all. The atmosphere was beautiful — from the aromas to the music, this was a lovely meal. This will 100% be our first stop when we’re back in Montreal (or maybe sooner for brunch this week). Try the Chicken Biryani with the Mango Lassi - you won’t regret it. I’d highly recommend Tula to every local and every tourist in Montreal. You don’t want to sleep on this gem. Thank you to Abhi and his wonderful staff! Also side note: encourage him to open his next restaurant in NYC… please!

Went for the late lunch and they were kind to accommodate us! The most wonderful food that reminds of home cooking, balanced spices and bringing in elements of various Indian regional food flavors! Vegan and delicious!

So lovely; the waiter gave a full rundown of the menu before eating and they answered questions about the food. I had the vegan chicken tikka massala which to be completely honest, did not taste like chicken but it had the right consistency and crunch that I didn’t care because it was delicious.

Had such a lovely time at Tula the other day! We found the perfect spot on the couches near the window, the staff and owners were so sweet & accommodating! I was recommended Grandma's Coconut Curry and it was SO GOOD! Enjoyed every bite :) Will definitely be back!

Good food, friendly service and calm atmosphere. Perfect combo for a nice moment. We enjoyed the brunch platter (the crepe was my favorite) and the hot beverages. Definitely recommend :)

Our host was very enthusiastic explaining the menu and was really passionate about the food at Tula. I had ordered the Thali which we were told changed monthly. I was not expecting such a variety. The taste of the 7 dishes were very varied. My favorite was the tofu dish between the leafy salad and beet salad. It was very filling! Not pictured is their mango Lassi which I also highly recommend. I don't know what spices where mixed in with the coconut base, but together with the sweet mangos, it was phenomenal. Thank you for the wonderful experience!

This is what you call service. The owner has a way of welcoming you to his restaurant and this makes you feel like you walking in his own kitchen. The food is definitely made with love. This is my new place for a good Indian Meal. Thank you for the warmth welcome

We came here for lunch and ordered chicken biryani and butter chicken with mango lassi. Everything was phenomenal. The salad even had edible flowers. Usually Indian restaurants give dry salads. It’s refreshing to have finally found the best vegan Indian restaurant so far. You can feel the care for detail and love for the dishes. Service and atmosphere was amazing. Only compliments for Tula.

It would greatly benefit the place if they invested in some better seats, tables, plates, cups, and cutlery. Seriously, everything felt like it came straight from IKEA's bargain section, including those uncomfortable outdoor patio tables and chairs. The whole atmosphere just put a damper on the experience. To top it off, my friend ordered a drink for about $9, and it came in a flimsy paper cup. I get that the restaurant is new and all, but considering the prices they charge for vegan food, they really need to step up their game when it comes to customer comfort. To make matters worse, they initially sat us at a table near the downstairs bathroom, and the smell was just unbearable. We had to move ourselves because we couldn't stomach the smell while eating. Now, let's talk about the food itself. The biryani was amazing, hands down one of the best I've had. We also tried a bunch of curries, which were decent, but nothing mind-blowing, especially considering the price. Oh, and we ordered this tofu scramble thing, and it was pretty bad. Definitely not recommending that. Overall, I'd come back here with my vegan friends, mainly for the biryani, but they seriously need to address the seating situation.

I love everything about this place! I've come for brunch and dinner. The owner is super friendly and will explain the whole menu to you + his favourite dishes. Everything is tasty ✨ The service is amazing. The wine is tasty and cheap 🍷
