Good food, very friendly owners, small little place that obviously caters more to take out…read more I found it a little overprices compared to other comparable Pakistani or Indian restaurants, but it's probably because of the location. The butter chicken and beef dish Pakistani style were great. Did not like the garlic naan we were offered, I prefer the simple one and assumed it would come with the food, since we never requested garlic naan. We got complimentary pakoras that were succulent.

Cheap menu for just $11.99 a dish. Great fast service…read more Stopped by for some takeout for the hotel and other places in area were borderline rude since they just ignored me when trying to order (left the dosa place and the Mango place). The food was good for the price and hit the spot. We ordered 2 meals, Naan and some chicken BBQ skewers. It was more than enough for 2 adults. I was able to take some leftovers home for my son and there was a good sized portion left for him. I liked the Mango Lassi too. Everything was affordable with Naan at just $1.50 each. The Skewers are what they are known for and I saw how they roast it in the clay oven They were Smoky and delicious! With lots of choices in a small area of castleridge in northeast Calgary. This will be my go to for takeout!

Sad to say that we had the worst possible experience here. First of all, we called in advance to…read moremake a reservation, the woman on the phone said there is no need and asked us to just come in. I asked to have my name written down just in case but she said there is no need. When we arrived, we were told there is no table available and we had to wait for 25 minutes just to get a table. After we ordered our food, it took 35 minutes to arrive. We ordered Lamb Karahi and shank Pulao. The Lamb Karahi tasted terrible. The gravy was too thick for a dish of this type. The meat was not heated properly. The shank pulao seemed like just re-heated food. The kheer at the end was just alot of condensed milk and way too sweet. Overall we had a terrible experience. Would not recommend this place to anyone

We found this spicy little haven during their last hour open on a Sunday. By closing time, they…read morehad filled up again. Here's why. Mains - 5/5 We each got a Quarma. Mine Lamb and savory. Hers, veggie and sweet (coconut milk). They were both positively decadent. The sauces were rich and smooth, without a hint of the oil breaking. Lamb was tender and succulent, her veggies were a step past al dente, which is fine. Sides - 4/5 We were surprised to see options of rice or naan to attend the dish, so yea each opted for one. The rice was well cooked, sprinkled with saffron and some roasted caraway seeds. The naan was fine, though probably had some excess oils on it making it a notable greasier experience that I think I am used to. Still, delicious way to finish up the sauce. This is a great place we feel luck to have found on a trip and we surely would love to find work in Calgary if only to frequent this place for lunch and their great combos. I don't know if I'd travel the whole 1200 miles just to eat here again, but I would consider it.

Last time I went to savoy was two years ago! I was happy with the experience and could have given…read morefive stars. With former glory in mind, I ordered some food yesterday. Chicken biriyani, veggie biriyani, chicken koththu and veggie curry. I thought the chicken biriyani was very nice. My partner little bit of everything but it was too spicy for her she said. Today, I had a left over biriyani from yesterday and am suffering from food poisoning for the past four hours. Food was too spicy, no flavours, just mediocre. Needless to say, I'm hugely disappointed!

No frills just good South Indian food!…read more Order: - Mysore Plain Dosa 4.5/5 (Crispy dosa, just enough spice, sambar was not too thick or to light, and the chutneys were well flavored) - Filter coffee 3.5/5 (not bad but could be better flavored. Also I am a traditionalist where in it should be served in steel cups) - Vada 4/5 - Goat Biryani 3.5/5 Service 4.5/5 - Just right not over bearing but also engaging Ambience 3.5/5 - fits the bill also the large 'Kathakali' poster is a great touch. Overall would definitely recommend this wonderful South Indian restaurant. Ad would and it to your list of food stops to try in Calgary. Will be coming back!

Have had lots of Shawarma in my day and some of the middle eastern foods our family likes best. We…read morestopped in for a hearty lunch and found the food absolutely average at best. I had a falafel platter which was dry, old and flavourless. The platter was mostly old rice and old potatoes. Hubby and daughter had beef donairs and described the meat as dry. My older daughter ordered butter chicken and it was dry dry dry and she found hair in it! The place has not been cleaned in a very long time and I think thats a direct reflection of how many F$&@S are given in the establishment. Won't be returning.

So my girlfriend and I worked 3 incredibly long days up in the mountains. No cell phone service, no…read morerestaurant, no grocery stores, no nothing. Isolated from humanity. Came home exhausted, tired and hungry for some warm delicious comfort food. After a quick search for restaurants near home, we decided to order from the KING of Shawarma. Reviews seemed decent. 5 stars on FB and 4 stars on YELP. Figured, why not I'm new to Calgary and need to find some good shawarma and Mediterranean food. I order through Skip the Dishes. Food came fast. Took about 45 minutes. I specially requested for all sauces and dips to be on the side, since I've worked in the restaurant industry before I understand that food doesn't always travel well and in order to avoid soggy messy food made my request and even apologize for the inconvenience in advance. Food comes. I look at it and instantly become irritated. Everything is mixed together. And all the exact same shade of grey and brown. The skin was falling off the potatoes (and not in a good tasty way) the chicken was dry and flavourless. I can honestly say that neither mine or my roommates food was touched. Literally made me sick to my stomach looking at it. Whatever, ok things happen. I get it. I called the restaurant to complain about my order and to request either a refund or a new meal. I asked to speak to a manger, the person on the other line said he was and that he remembered packing my food. I told him it wasn't what I ordered, and that I wasn't happy. He was rude, arrogant and refused to take responsibility for the situation. He tried to blame skip the dishes for his poor work ethic. After about 3 minutes of talking to his fine outstanding young man it comes to my attention that he is in fact NOT a manger and that none are there to talk to me or deal with the situation. After all that talking, this person can't do a thing to help me. I tell him to talk to his manager and to call ME back. He agrees. Fast forward 30 minutes still no call. Nothing. So I call back. First call phone rings about 15 times then disconnects. Second call straight to voicemail. Third call he answers. Tells me the manger isn't there. I tell him I'll be by tomorrow to return this food. He shrugs off my concerns and lets me go. Well today, as much as I wanted to bring the food back and collect a refund, life got in the way and I needed to work. Still have yet to hear from a manager. I didn't even receive an apology or nothing. Wound up making freezer pizza for dinner, after only wanting shawarma from the king.

The service takes some time, it definitely isn't fast food. We ordered quite a bit of food; gyro, lamb, beef, as you can see in the photo. Price is about $13/pp. Food was just okay, nothing out of the ordinary. I felt it was a bit overpriced. A bit underwhelming but satisfactory as it was quite a bit of food.

Stopped in at 8pm on a Saturday night. We were hungry and ordered platters. It came with rice,…read moresalad, bread and 2 skewers of meat- 1 beef and 1 chicken. The ground beef skewer was spicy and very tasty. The chicken was not as flavourful but still good. Hubby had the chaplee which was spicy ground beef patties. They were huge. We ended up taking the rice home and it was enough for 2 people. There's not much seating in this place and parking is slim. This is a solid place to go if you're hungry on a late night out but don't expect service. You order at the counter, pay then they call you to get your food. Overall, we knew what to expect thanks to fellow Yelpers!
