Chez Chine

Like a park

99 Viger Avenue West
(At St-Urbain)
Montreal, QC H2Z 1E9
Canada
+1 514 878 9888

The Holiday Inn Select's landmark Chinese oasis remains one of Montreal's unique dining experiences. The décor is a collection of sculptured gardens, babbling brooks and other exotic touches, and the menu is similarly impressive. The Dim Sum lunch is especially popular and won't set you back more than CAD40, while Sunday Brunch offers a lavish buffet. Peking Duck is the house specialty, while other favourites such as General Tao's Chicken are prepared with uncommon skill. The Lotus Bleu bar is a tranquil spot for a pre- or post-dinner drink.

Maharaja

Indian buffet deluxe 1481 René-Lévesque Boulevard West
(Near Mackay)
Montreal, QC H3G 1T8
Canada
+1 514 934 0655 Billed as Montreal's largest Indian buffet and set inside a former residential building, Maharaja offers more than 20 main dishes. The décor consists of mirrored walls, giving it a spacious feel surrounding comfortable seating. The menu covers the entire expanse of typical Indian fare, from various meat curries and Tandoori Chicken to bean and lentil dishes; there are also plenty of vegetarian curries and other non-meat dishes. The wine list is limited but beer is plentiful.

Mandarin Buffet

Lots of choice 1240 Stanley Street
(Near Ste-Catherine)
Montreal, QC H3B 2S7
Canada
+1 514 871 8099 This Chinese buffet restaurant offers few culinary surprises, but is distinguished by its pleasant downtown setting and its conscientious preparation. All the usual items are on the menu, including egg rolls, chicken fried rice and won ton soup, plus traditional main courses like sweet and sour pork. Lunch specials go for around CAD7, and dinners are CAD9.95, which jumps to CAD10.95 on weekends. There is plenty of room for 160 diners. Second location at 7373 Langelier in St-Leonard (+1 514 256 1717).

Taj

Museum-like elegance 2077 Stanley Street
(Near Sherbrooke)
Montreal, QC H3A 1R7
Canada
+1 514 845 9015 This graceful spot is one of downtown's best-known Indian restaurants, and certainly one of its most elegant. The modern décor features pink and white tablecloths and beautiful wall hangings. The lunch buffet is a huge draw. The à la carte menu features appetizers like bhajis and samosas, and main courses run the gamut of Indian cuisine. Nawabi Korma is a mixture of lamb, beef or chicken in a yogurt-based sauce; vegetarian options include Channa Masala and a spicy chickpea dish. All main courses come with rice or naan bread.
