The 3 Tasty Indian Bistro restaurants are arguably the best North Indian dining experience in BC, perhaps all of Canada. I think most Indians would prefer the food at the Delta & Abbotsford locations as it seems as if the taste and menu at the Yaletown location differs to cater to a wider demographic. However, despite it being the “worst” of the Tasty restaurants, it is still by far the best Indian restaurant in Vancouver. I don't think you can go wrong with Tasty.

Food overall was pretty good although definitely modified for more western tastes (for example, broad use of chicken breast over thigh, and their "medium" spice was definitely more "mild" to our tastes). Service - not so much. Found a piece of wrapper attached to the naan in the starter we ordered. Server has apologetic and took it off our bill, so that was well appreciated, but not a great start. Later, I ordered a second beer towards the end of the meal....

Amazing service! The food: we had Pani puris and Dahi puri! Delicious!! Main meals of Chicken Rara(chicken in lamb kheema) and pudina panner as a sizzler! Finger licking. What was impressive was all servers, managers and other staff worked together. Ambiance was lovely too!
