    Food was not very tasty and very costly. Not at all value for money. We ordered tandoori momos which were not fresh also. Chicken was okay but no salt.

    Very nice restaurant. The food was great, and the ambiance too. However, when I ordered my food, I told the waiter to get my friend and I four naans, and he said that they were big. Therefore, we only got two naans, but then we needed more eventually, so I wished the waiter hadn't suggested to us that we don't only order two naans. We were also slightly pressured to leave the restaurant in the end, but I would still definitely recommend this restaurant to other people and will be coming back here.

    It was our first time but it will not be our last. Friendly staff, combined with a fantastic selection of dinner choices. Perfectly balanced flavours and heat.

    This place recalled the good old days when I spent during my younger days in India. Beautifully created paintings, comfortable chairs and overall ambiance is good.

    We came here on a Saturday night. The seating was cramped up. Tables were very close to each other I barely hear my date speak. We asked for a quieter spot but there wasn’t one available. The service felt rushed. However the food was excellent. Lamb chops spot on - one of the best in Toronto. Tandoori chicken was cooked well and the Malabar curry was delicious. Overall dining experience was good but the hosts could have been better. I wouldn’t recommended this place for a date.
