Absolutely the BEST Indian cuisine on all of Vancouver Island!

From the moment we walked in, the warm and friendly service made us feel right at home. Every dish was bursting with authentic flavor, made fresh with love and care — you can taste the difference! The food was perfectly spiced, the naan was soft and fluffy, and the biryani was out of this world.

You have to try this place — whether you’re a long-time fan of Indian food or new to it, you’ll be blown away. So fresh, so flavorful, and the team is so welcoming. I can’t recommend it enough! Once you try it, trust me, you’ll definitely be coming back again.

Highly, highly recommended!

Best service and absolutely fantastic meal!!!!!! Highly recommend anyone who wants a delicious and satisfying experience, the sauces are home made and you can taste the freshness! The mango Lassi drink is a must! Don’t skip the dessert it’s so worth it, thank you again you’re the best! This was our 6th time and every time has been perfect

The serving staff are lovely and friendly. The owner came to the table several times to see how our meal was. The food arrived quickly, and every dish was delicious. The spice levels were accurate. We ate every morsel out of every dish that was delivered to our table. The naan bread is excellent, crunchy and bubbly and fresh.

This is a new Indian restaurant in town. There are tons of food choices - something for everyone. Our group of 5 all enjoyed our meals and we all took some home too. It was wonderful the next day.
The medium heat I ordered was a little hotter than what I’m used to at other Indian restaurants but it was still good.

Vegetarian options: There were 15 or so vegetarian options and mine had coconut milk so it was vegan.

Dietary restrictions: I did not notice much if things were labeled lactose free or dairy free. I don’t need that but some family do.

Parking: 6 spaces out front and a small free lot behind accessed by an alley.
