A very tasty indian dishes. I loved the eggplant dish. The stews are very delicious. They have a lot of space to sit.

They just have changed something recently, used to be fine and I’ve ordered here a lot, but I just received absolutely nasty rubbery overcooked and burnt tasting chicken. Inedible.

Ordered out and was very happy with the portion size, flavor and delivery time. Highly recommended when you are downtown at BC Place! ⚽️ 🇮🇳

I recently visited this restaurant and ordered Veg Manchurian, Chicken Noodles, and Garlic Naan. Unfortunately, the food was incredibly disappointing. The Veg Manchurian was made with what seemed like ketchup instead of the usual flavorful sauce—it was bland and unappetizing. The Chicken Noodles were just as lacklustre.
I’ve tried many places, but this was by far the worst experience I’ve had. The chef clearly needs to improve their skills, especially when it comes to making basic dishes like Manchurian. I would recommend a serious review of the kitchen staff and a complete overhaul of the recipes.

Definitely won’t be returning.

I visited today for the lunch buffet, which, at $14.99, seemed reasonable.

I wouldn’t recommend this place for its service at least not during the slow buffet lunch time. The server was on a phone call in their AirPods for what I think was my entire visit.

The vegetarian options at the buffet were decent, including Chana Masala and Dal Makhani. However, they were on the western mild side of the spice spectrum.

The deep-fried appetizers would have been better if I had arrived when they were fresh.

The dessert, Galub Jamun, is included in the buffet, but you’ll probably need to ask for it. Unfortunately, it was the soggy, microwaved version, so I’d skip it.

The best part of the buffet, hands down, was the naan.

Butter Chicken is literally like tomato soup. So not worth it.

In this industry you're only as good as your last dish. But almost as important, you're only as good as your quality of service despite the food. Tonight, I ordered takeout. I had to phone them because their website ordering was not working (maybe it was a warning). The woman on the phone told me 35 minutes. No problem. When I arrived <35 minutes later, I could tell the food had been sitting out for a while. I had (also) ordered hot tea which was barely warm because it was poured into a paper cup at the same time the food was ready. Likely 15 minutes earlier. Warning #2. I asked if they could make me another and put it in my thermal mug that I placed in front of her, because I had to drive home with the food (not the first time I've done this here). 10 minutes later, the same young woman had the tea ready IN ANOTHER PAPER CUP! My thermal mug was still sitting on the counter beside the cup. I gave her a WTF look and she simply stared blankly at me. Worst service I've had in ages. As I said earlier, I can't remember how the food was. The service, however, left a very bad taste. I don't think I'll return.
