Their Chana Kulcha and Mango Lassi are hands down my absolute favourites in Toronto! The kulcha is always fresh, fluffy, and packed with flavour, and the chana has that perfect balance of spices that makes every bite so comforting. Paired with their creamy, refreshing mango lassi it’s just unbeatable. If you’re craving authentic taste with a homely touch, this place never disappoints.

Excellent food and super awesome staff, love chatting with the owner Maninder ji. We usually order take away but dining has nice experience, Chhole Bhature or Kulcha is my favourite here. I'll highly recommended to try food here or just drop by. Tiffin services is also nice, I had it a couple of times and taste is amazing.

We've really come to enjoy this place—it's become a weekend tradition for our family. The food has a comforting, home-style taste that we really appreciate. The service is always kind and attentive, and Kiran, our usual server, is especially warm and welcoming. We're grateful for the hospitality every time we visit.
