Empress of India Reviews
Great food, friendly staff, no reservations required
Had a craving for Indian food, and this place happen to be local! Hadn't tried it before and they have done a SPECTACULAR job!
Will be ordering again!
Extremely Rude Staff, they are extremely partial when it comes to treating Canadian and Indian customers - the owner of the restaurant is very arrogant. Would NOT recommend this place to anyone.

The Empress of India offers a delightful dining experience with its impressive service and delectable Indian cuisine. The staff are welcoming and helpful in guiding guests through the menu, which features great vegetarian options, vegan, and halal choices. Dishes like butter chicken, bhindi masala, kofta, and paneer tikka masala are highly recommended. Recent reviews highlight the wonderful meals and impeccable service, with guests noting how friendly the staff are, particularly Avneet and Mehak. Many have praised the quick service, as meals often arrive within 20 minutes, making it a popular choice for those looking for delicious food and great recommendations. Visitors also enjoy the simple but tasty dishes like mutton Rogan Josh, which is described as a nice mutton curry, and the naan, considered one of the best with a perfect balance of soft and crispy. Complimentary papad adds to the warm experience, and the ambiance remains cozy and welcoming. The restaurant is also known for its excellent catering service, which has been trusted for over two years for various events, with consistent taste and easy customization. Delivery within GTA is available, and the staff, including owner Saurav, are highly praised for their friendliness and professionalism.
