The food and service are very good. I ordered MAHARAJA THAI, which comes with three curry sauces, a salad and two sweet sauces. It is very economical and affordable. The boss has also been to Taiwan?? and told me about his work in Taiwan.

Was looking for dinner near Stanley Park today and found this restaurant, wasn't too busy when I went. I'll admit that I'm not the most familiar with Indian food and said as much; the woman co-owner who served me was very nice and explained some of the options for me. I ordered the Maharaja Thali and she also explained how it's typically eaten when I asked. It was excellent and I intend to come back if I'm in the area.
