In the last few months we have become so regular the staff recognizes me now. I don't live in Edmonton but when I get there I eat at Monsoon. Been trying to work through the menu but it's hard not to order their butter chicken as it's the best I've ever tried. The stuffed naan is beyond belief. The tandoor lamb was a surprise, perfectly cooked and flavourful. Plus their cocktails are imaginative and delicious. The staff is attentive, polite and knowledgeable. The place looks amazing, the atmosphere is wonderful. Driving past you may not even notice it tucked away in a Holiday Inn but don't let that deceive you. This is one of the BEST restaurants in Edmonton.

Me and my husband went last night unplanned and it was the best choice ever. Food was like anything we tried in Indian restaurants before. Very fresh and high quality. We didn’t feel heavy after eating as it happens with every other places. Service was also excellent, kind, polite and knowledgeable. Highly recommended!

Really propa place for a great Indian cuisine. Ambiance is , the quality of food was fresh and really good. Has a bar/lounge area and a dining side as well. Bartender Mark was awesome at drinks, and Youseff was good as well. Recommended some great dishes of food. The story of the owner was amazing. Please read it on the wall. Amazing journey she had and landed with this spot of hers. Food has a bit of Turkish fusion, which was great. Anyhow, I found a to go place for the times I'm in Edmonton. I highly recommend checking out this place !!!

Hands down one of the BEST dishes I've had in years. Excellent service and craft drinks from our hostess. Tandoor in the kitchen, in house made Naan and yogurt. 100% i will be returning. We have the dill Naan with butter chicken. Medium spice was almost too much for my pale palette. Incredibly flavour packed

The food and service was really good. But I am here to actually appreciate the lady you helped me and my family serving with smile. I hope the owner sees this and raise to the managerial position. Zahra was her name, and I am here just to pick on her and praise her. I hope you read, god bless.
