Service was great, the food was very tasty, however there was absolutely no spice in any of the 4 different dishes we had, which was disappointing, as we were looking for authentic flavours.

Very disappointed! Food had no flavour, no spices, butter chicken was so bad couldn’t finish the meal. Does not qualify for quality Indian food, very unauthentic.

Ordered via Uber Eats. We were expecting food with taste but it was very bland. Butter chicken and Kashmiri chicken curry had the same bland non-flavour. We couldn’t believe how this could be called Indian food. To be fair, the naan was good (hence ⭐️⭐️ instead of ⭐️).

The worst Indian food I ever had in my life. Don’t go there people. They don’t even know how to cook. Worst butter chicken, worst chicken biryani. I paid for horrible food. Save your money don’t go at this place.

I had semi- high hopes for this place because it feels like this restaurant has been around forever (or at least since I was a kid). I have to say I have never been so disappointed in the quality of the food. I ordered the vindaloo because I enjoy spicy foods, but even my wife, who and her own words “ I have a white ass pallet and even pepper can be too much for me” tried my vindaloo and said it has no flavour. Compared to other lesson known Indian restaurants I struggle to eat all the vindaloo. My wife and my mother both had the butter chicken and the same results, lack or even absence of flavour. Hell, we were debating whether the so-called chicken in the butter chicken was soy. Two out of three of us think it is actual chicken. However, definitely a low grade chicken byproduct, such as the kind you find in dog food. My mother is convinced that the butter chicken sauce is Pataks a brand that you can buy from lower end grocery stores, such as No Frills We ordered via UberEats but I’m still giving this place a one star on atmosphere because if they can’t or won’t take pride in their food, I highly doubt they take pride in the cleanliness and overall ambiance of the actual location.

I’ve been going here for 20 years. What a HAMILTON staple. I love this place.
We had the Lunch special (9.95$)and the lunch platter (11.95) plus a few appetizers - food was excellent, perfect portion for lunch. Also really appreciated the great service!

If I could give less then one star I would. The worst Indian food of all time. Flavourless. Butter chicken doesn’t even remotely resemble butter chicken. Lady at the front has no idea what’s going on. I walked in and said I’m here to pick up and she replied “pick up what?” With a confused look on her face. We threw the food out.

Our favourite Indian restaurant in town. The takar dall is deliciously garlicky - our 2.5 year old will eat an entire serving. The butter chicken is creamy - the best we've found in the city (a lot of other places have been heavily tomato or even ketchup-esq). We usually order take out or delivery. But when we've eaten in, it's been a pleasure. Would definitely recommend! Only negative is that they don't open & won't accept orders until 5pm so our food doesn't usually get to us until 6pm or later (we live west mountain), even though we pre-ordered. Not ideal with you have a toddler that needs to go to bed around 7pm
Great food highly reccomend
