This place is wicked! I definitely enjoyed eating here. The food is great and cheap.. just the way I like it. You will be full after eating here.
I met a south Indian who was in Montreal for two months with work. When I ask whether he had been to this restaurant before his response was "everyday".
I had gotten a mango lassi with my meal (because i felt like spoiling myself). I was pretty good especially given the fact that it was pre-made. Just before leaving we ordered chai. It took a while to make it as it was made from scratch but was definitely worth the wait. It was one of the best chai I have had. -

Located just a few blocks from Concordia, it's tucked away on a side street ensuring cheap rent and awesome prices for some really delicious food. The Tandori chicken was my favorite especially when eating it with garlic nan.
It was a little intimidating the first time since the menu/ordering process wasn't totally clear for the buffet line, but when I approached with a deer in the headlights look the guy manning the cash register sorted me out.
For a treat I picked up a mango lassi which was decent enough for being more than an ocean's distance from any mango trees.
Thali works well as a quick and grungy establishment to stuff your gourd and carry on with your day. The food is cheap, portions are large, and it's on your plate within minutes. Thali also works when you are hankering for Indian food, not the best I've had but a decent approximation.
Bottom line, I'll be back for plenty more food at this hidden gem. -

Thali = Value for Money
Plus
$9 for a Non-Veg thali is a steal deal - an assortment of meats and vegetarian accompanied with Indian bread and rice.
Veg thali goes for $8
Dessert is not bad either
Service is quick (esp. for take outs)
Not so Plus
I think the one "don't have it" dish here is the biryani - it was terrible - tasted like spicy rice with shredded chicken in it. Seriously!!
I don't like it when someone messes with a Biryani..:p
I could be very critical when it comes to Indian food - to me this place is A-OK. I have had better butter chicken's and biryanis and both of them here are not up to my standards.
I've found another place that serves a decent biryani - but will blah about it in my next review
Price is tax included
Decor - nothing to mention
Service - passable
No Wifi -

Good fast and cheap Indian food. Not the best in Montreal, for that head over to Park Extension or go to Ganges, but Thali is fine if you're down town, need good Indian (stay away from Buffet Maharaja!)
Their Mango Lassi is excellent! -

Amazing value for money! Highly recommended.
All prices include tax. For $8 (veg.) or $9 (non-veg.) you will be completely filled by their 3-choice thali plates, which include salad, rice, NAAN, and papadum.
The $5 wraps are also great.
The decor leaves something to be desired (this is where it loses a star), but at least they play decent Indian music, and not Top 40 radio. -

Thali was a great way to end my trip Montreal. The prices are beyond fair, the waitstaff is great, and the food was super tasty.
I recommend getting the thali. It's an excellent deal, considering you can pick your curries. Typically, thali is a prix-fixe type meal where the restaurant chooses what they serve you. Atmosphere isn't posh, but it's still cute and intimate. Definitely worth your while to check out if you're a tourist or local. -

My wife is Malaysian and I lived there for 2 yrs. We had indian food almost everyday over there. Since we moved to Montreal 4-5 yrs ago we've been looking for authentic indian food that tastes like the one in Malaysia. Thali is it. Finally, after at least 8-9 different restaurants we found one that is exactly what we were looking for.
The dahl (they call is Sambar) is the best in Montreal, by far. I had been craving it since Malaysia and Thali got it right.
Prices are great and the staff nice. This is as good as it gets. -

Very good Indian food, quick service, great price. I eat mostly the vegetarian dishes from there, but have heard that the meat ones are just as good.

This is one of the best inidian restos in its class (low frills, low $) in Montreal. Run by friendly, happy people who can cook this spot was a real find (thanks Yelp). Went there with my girlfriend last night before going to the soulless AMC for soulless comedy. Definitely the best part of the night. Very tasty plate of food for $8. Guy came around to deliver steaming hot naan right out of the oven. Will definitely be going back. My only complaint is that it's not closer to my house and there's not much life in its neighbourhood.

Thali Cuisine Indienne is a cozy family run restaurant. It doesn't look like much from the outside, and isn't on a trendy street, but the interior is quite nice, the service was good and friendly, the food was excellent and very inexpensive for the quality. We paid about $12 each for Thali for dinner. I highly recommend.

Cheap and very tasty. I stayed in Montreal for four days and I went here twice.
