I had the Hare Bhare Kabab and the thali — both were absolutely delicious! The flavors were authentic and perfectly balanced. The staff were incredibly polite and attentive, making the whole experience even better. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great food and warm service!

Extremely good food and truly amazing service! They did a fantastic job showcasing Indian culture not just through their beautifully done decor, but also in the warmth and hospitality of their service. Every detail made the experience special. And the food? Absolutely delicious. I highly recommend trying their Makhmali Kofta — it's a must-have!

We had a very nice meal at The Twist of India. Our waiter was very friendly and helpful with explaining the dishes when we ordered. If we return to Halifax again, we'll be sure to come back.
