I was on my way to another restaurant but ate here instead because the food smelled so good from outside. It was just as good when I ordered I’m glad I made the stop. No alcohol so if you want to drink be sure to bring a in a bottle as they don’t serve alcohol. A liquor store is located very close.

To be honest my bill was shocking. They charged us $147 for two persons.

Amber hosted our McGill banquet and everything went smoothly! They handled a reservation for 100 people with ease, and the menu options were fantastic. The food tasted great and the pricing was very reasonable. Special thanks to the manager, Hafssa, who was extremely responsive and communicated clearly throughout the process. Highly recommend!

Absolutely wonderful. Tasty, authentic dishes with great flavour and spices paired wonderfully with inventive starters. Biryani is a weekly staple for us. Thanks for the impeccable service and dining experience!

Both the ambiance and menu are excellent.
We went there to celebrate a birthday. There, we faces an issue regarding the dish served. Later , the manage herself looked into the matter and compensated for the matter excellently.
Really appreciate her effort and approach. A must visit place for a desi delicious treat.

Delicious and friendly restaurant! We weren’t aware it was BYOB but the server directed us to a wine store just a couple of blocks away and it only took a few minutes to come back with some wine. The food was all excellent. The only nitpick is that our group is used to Indian food that’s spicier and we would have liked a bit more heat, but it was still delicious!

Disappointed with my Uber order. The Uber app doesn't let you enter notes for your order (ex: no onions, extra spicy), so I had to call the resto to tell them I wanted my Butter Chicken 'medium' spicy. Unfortunately, it was not spicy at all so whoever I spoke with, didn't listen to what I said. I had to actually put Sriracha on my food as it had no spice!
Also, there was barely any chicken in the dish, it was 90% sauce, 10% chicken.
The Dahl I ordered was so salty and watery, it was thrown out...inedible!
I paid 80$ for 6 items :(

The service is very good! It’s overpriced for all the food portion. The slow cooked beef and BBQ chicken are very dry and hard to chew. The naan are the best!

Service was really good to begin with, but I was a little disappointed with the makhani daal — it was made with a mix of different lentils and kidney beans, which is quite unusual. The rest of the food was just okay. The naan were good, and the kebab masala was decent. The fish pakoras were tasty, but they would have been even better if served with mint chutney.

The food was extremely bland and the restaurant was very very overcrowded due to a private event and we were not warned when taking the reservation. That said the waitress was fantastic and gave great service.

The restaurant is nice, and the staff is very friendly. The food presentation is appealing and looks delicious. HOWEVER, the taste was below average. As an Indian, I found the flavors lacking, and the food didn’t reflect the richness of authentic Indian/Pakistani cuisine. The garlic naan was undercooked, the mango mojito tasted more like mango juice, and the tandoori roti seemed to be made with all-purpose flour instead of wheat.
The food overall tasted bland—not in terms of spiciness🌶️/heat, but in terms of flavor depth and richness. Even though the restaurant has a 4.4 rating, perhaps due to the customers who may NOT BE familiar with traditional Indian or Pakistani food, it’s important to present authentic flavors to those who are kind enough to try our cuisine. People come here expecting the full experience of our traditional dishes, and those people don’t know how more delicious it can be. and it’s a missed opportunity when the food doesn’t live up to that standard.
