For an establishment claiming to be operating since 1991, they need to realise that it’s now 2025 where the average quality of Indian food in Toronto is a lot higher with much stiffer competition, especially in this neighbourhood.
I got the Paneer Paratha and the Shahi Paneer.
Granted that the Paneer Paratha look visually larger than usual, the Paratha seemed to be shortchanged by containing a mix of refined flour (maida) with whole wheat flour (aata). Honestly, I think instant parathas taste better with crispier textures too. Moreover, the dahi served with the paratha was a heavily diluted dahi boondi.
The Shahi Paneer did not have any form of buttery taste, it had an overwhelming flavour of tomato puree. Moreover, for a medium shahi paneer, I could count the number of Paneer pieces with a single hand.
We are regulars at a neighbouring budget North Indian eatery in this plaza, we decided to give Indian Pakwan a chance but to no avail. It’s such a pity that the food tasted subpar, although the staff were friendly.
Mind you, it’s a total of $25 for 2 Butter Naan + Medium Shahi Paneer (with barely 6pieces of Paneer cubes) + 1 Paneer Paratha with diluted dahi boondi. Yes, portions can be big but that’s a huge game of quantity over quality.

I’ve been in Canada for 3 years and this is the first time I truly felt like I had real Indian food that reminded me of home. The food was delicious, fresh, and authentic, but what stood out even more was the homely atmosphere. They treated me not just as a customer, but like a guest in their own home. Special thanks to Gurpreet, who made the experience unforgettable — from now on, she’s my didi. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for authentic taste with warm hospitality!

This food was super delicious! I loved the options that were available and everything was soooo yummy! I have food allergies (nuts and sesame) and they were reassuring about the menu items that I could eat. I also used the washrooms and they were very clean and bright. Overall, if you’re looking for a quick, affordable and scrumptious vegetarian meal, I’d definitely check it out.
