I really enjoyed the experience today. I had lunch today with a friend and it was fresh, really delicious and the customer service was excellent 👌👌
Ambience is good. I liked the interior charm, classy. Food was good too. I tried Crab cake which went well with Chianti Italy red wind.
My partner and I had a great meal at Thali. The ooty mushroom curry and kerala style beef curry were so so good.
This place is easily one of the best Indian restaurants I’ve experienced — not just in Ottawa, but anywhere. Each visit somehow outdoes the last, with bold, beautifully balanced flavors and dishes that feel both elevated and comforting.
The cocktails and drink menu pair perfectly, making it a full experience rather than just a meal.
Pro tip: Make a reservation — this spot fills up for a reason. Once you’re in, go all in. You won’t regret a single bite.

Had the lunch shrimp thali special.
Vibrant, colorful, flavourful and satisfying.
Small portion of 3 shrimp but they were perfectly cooked and served in an unctuous, creamy sauce. Dipping the flatbread into the sauce was definitely the highlight.
Thali also had beets, lentil soup, zucchini in tomato sauce, yogurt raita, and a sweet mystery that was delicious.
Service was great. Fast and in and out in under an hour. Make sure you get a reservation! Highly recommend

Went there with my coworkers for lunch.
Food is okay but portions are small. Butter chicken comes in a small bowl with no rice or bread.
The server was misleading when she asked do you want rice or bread with your meal.
She made it seem like one of them is included instead of saying would like to add bread or rice to your meal.
Also we felt rushed as the server kept staring at us and asking if we are ready. We felt it was hard to have a conversation with each other.
I got the feeling I should eat fast and leave

This restaurant is not at all 'authentic' in anyway. The food was subpar, the prices sky high for the portion sizes. Supposedly a kerala thali did not contain the essential moru curry or aviyal or theeyal. All dishes taste similar with loads of cream. Hugely disappointed,

Great ambiance. kind of fine dining place. Food is average. Lacks authenticity. Diluted to the needs of local crowd. Could be btter with Indian spices.

Tried the maha thali and it’s not worth it at all. Not coming back at all! None of the dishes tasted like authentic Kerala food.

Good Indian food. High end restaurant. Prices accordingly higher. A good restaurant choice to be in. However it seems reservation is a must before going.

It is just limited thali. Attitude is bad. Just South Indian food. Brinjal is good. Nothing is good.
