The lady behind the desk is the owner herself and the cook!We chit chatted with her she seemed very friendly and hardworking! She offered us to try the pakoras for free which was very generous of her!We ordered a butter chicken combo which comes with 3 samosas and a pop.The Samosas were potatoes filled and one the best I have had in the North America region and the butter chicken was quite average.The naan was not home made rather store bought and grilled at the store- I wasn't impressed! We also ordered Tandoori chicken which are sold by the piece each one was for two dollars. The chicken was juicy and very flavorful. I thoroughly enjoyed the chicken. As we were eating the lady/owner offered us some biryani to try and with that she offered us two small beef samosas both were a hit! We found her very generous and sweet! Overall Verdit! This place is a hidden gem for both potatoes and beef samosas and pakoras but on the other hand the food was average but I will have to give her a 4 star for her outstanding customer service she knows how to please customers. While we were there we saw lots of people doing carry out and placing catering orders! Will definitely go there again for samosas and pakoras!

Samosas a must try! They prepare by order I believe because…read moremust say they do have slow service. We ordered to go and had around 20-25 mins wait. The seating is small. Mainly it's to go. However the taste of the samosas made us forget the wait. They give the Samosa with a sweet sour chutney which is even more yummy. I liked the veggies samosa over the chicken ones. We also took a lb of veggie pakora which were good. I am not sure but I guess pre- ordering and pick up here is a better option. $1 chicken samosa and $1 for 2 veg samosas

This was my first experience with Indian food. We were a party of 5. Our waiter Rohit, was very…read morehelpful and made great suggestions for us. We all enjoyed our meals. Food was very flavourful.

A little pricey, possibly due to Covid, everything, every industry has increased. We enjoyed ourselves, family dinner, daughter visiting from Ottawa, so a nice night out.

This place is amazing!!…read more I ordered the butter chicken and my only regret was not ordering a large, it was incredible. So creamy and delicious. I dreamt about it! I am also a baby when it comes to spice so I was lucky this butter chicken was not spicy. I also tried the goat curry which was good aswell, a little spicy. But nothing compares to the butter chicken. Would sell my soul for the recipe

The staff was very friendly and welcoming, which set a great tone for the evening. For appetizers, we ordered the chicken and paneer, and both turned out to be really good. For our mains, we went with Rogan Josh, Chicken Tikka Masala, Dal Maharani, Malai Kofta, and Chicken Biryani. Most of the dishes were delicious--Rogan Josh, Chicken Tikka Masala, and Dal Maharani were especially impressive. The Malai Kofta was on the sweeter side, but still enjoyable depending on your taste. The only real disappointment was the Chicken Biryani. It had an overpowering amount of rose water, and the rice tasted stale with a strange aftertaste, which really took away from the dish. Additionally, while the restaurant is understandably a bit pricey for a special occasion, the naan prices felt excessive. Overall, we had a great experience--the ambience was beautiful, the service was warm, and most of the food was excellent. I would have given four or even five stars, but due to the Biryani and the naan pricing, I'm leaving it at three stars. Maybe next time!!!

They have an amazing variety of…read moreIndian dishes (both vegetarian and non-vegetarian); whether you're a beef/lamb-lover, chicken-lover or seafood-lover, you'll find great options on their menu. They also have a full bar, offering beer, wine and creative cocktails. We ordered some of their specialties: "MALAI METHI MURGH", "OLD DELHI BUTTER CHICKEN", "PUNJABI MUTTON", "LAMB ROGANJOSH", "TAMARIND CHICKEN PLATTER" and paired them with "PANEER KULCHA" and "KEEMA NAAN". Everything was perfectly seasoned and cooked. We enjoyed every bite. If you're not used to spicy food, choose "mild" for heat level as it still has a bit of a kick to it. The staff are friendly and helpful. There's a parking lot beside the restaurant with first 2 hours of parking being free of charge.

The grill platter was really really good and good value. Pani puri shots were delicious however, apparently the soy dish in the appetizers is phenomenal which I will try next time and was recommended by a friend, the butter chicken is also really good. I haven't tried it, but a friend has mentioned that it is very good. Service was good. They brought what we needed once we got their attention but to get the waiter's attention was difficult because we were in the corner at the back and they were extremely busy.

I absolutely love this place. Normally, a place that has a massive menu is a bit concerning to me…read moreas it often leads to not really excelling at anything, but that is not the case here in my experience. The reason behind the large menu is related to the aim of the restaurant, which is to showcase the various regional cuisines of India. As a result, don't expect the straightforward menu of: apps, entrees, deserts, etc... rather the menu is divided by cuisine. Aside from honouring tradition, they do offer a couple 'new' takes on some items. If you comb through a few reviews, and certainly the pics, you'll notice a must-order items is the roasted eggplant with pomegranate. It really is like nothing else I've had before and unforgettable in both taste and texture. My group also went with a famous lamb dish as well. I don't remember the name offhand, but it is incredibly soft, well seasoned and nicely spiced dish. We also went with orders of naan, veggie dishes and meat skewers. It's beautifully decorated inside and also has the advantage of being located in a heritage building in what was formerly an estate home nearly 150 years old. It's truly a unique place and one people living in the area can be proud and of showcase to visitors.

She changed the chai with Earl Gray which was really tasty. The ambiance was nice and comfort. The chairs were comfortable and the employees were friendly.

I had come here on a Saturday morning at around 11:20 am for a quick lunch. When I had approached…read morethe front door, I noticed that there were a few restaurants all grouped together, which made it a tad confusing as to where to go. However, I then approached the lady at the front desk, and told her that I was interested in this particular restaurant. I was then brought over to a table, and noticed how chic and modern everything looked. I enjoyed the designs of the tables, chairs, and décor, and admired them as I was waiting for my food. I settled on the stuffed butter chicken naan, which took almost 30 minutes to prepare. I found this much too long to prepare, and was getting restless, as I had to go elsewhere. Nevertheless, the food itself was quite good however, a bit too spicy for my liking. Overall, this place does have many different varieties of stuffed naans, and does a good job of showcasing the various types. I would have liked for my meal to come sooner however, I'll keep that in mind for the future.

The food is delicious, even more if you are a meat eater…read more We've been eating here since a few years now and the quality has stayed fairly consistent. Considering that this place serves South Indian food, the dosas are definitely nice. However, there are a bunch of good dosa places in the GTA who offer more options. Anjappar scores with its tasty non vegetarian variety. Today, the chicken was tender and well cooked. We like spicy gravy and the server's recommendation was on spot. The mutton bone soup was extra nice on the first day of snow. Overall, a must try place if you haven't been here yet.

I had heard about Anjappar from my cousin who had come to Mississauga a few years back and I…read moreassumed it was a small hole-in-the-wall kind of restaurant. To my surprise, I realized that the place is actually part of a global chain when I tried ordering from there recently. Unfortunately, that reflects on the prices as well. It is quite pricey and the quantity definitely does not match the prices. However, the taste almost makes up for this. Everything we got was spiced perfectly and not mellowed down at all. The chicken 65 was especially delightful and goat curry was fantastic with the typical South Indian coconut flavour coming through. In conclusion, it is probably not a place I will be ordering from often because of those prices but will definitely consider it if I am looking to impress any guests looking for authentic spicy fare from the southern part of India.

Another just average Indian restaurant but with a party vibes and pretty good service…read more So the food is overall 3/5. Nothing that is out of the world or exceptional. We tried happy hour - vegetarian momos, tikka chat as our appetizers both were average. Tikki chat was good considering other options in GTA but tikki was more like a cutlet, the portion however was huge. The presentation of the food was very good. For our drink hubby had a beer and I had mingotini mock-tail i loved my drink and the quality was exceptionally good. 5/5 there! For our mains he opted for Karahi chicken, it was spicy but fine and would rate 3/5. I opted for veg biryani which was a fancy pulaav not a biryani but it tasted good so 3/5. Again quantity was pretty huge so 5/5 there. What I loved about the restaurant was there vibes, and good service. In my experience it is generally bad service in Indian restaurants where you are served by students server with no training. This wasn't the case here. The servers and manager both were very hospitable and were keep a good check on you and your needs. So you can consider this place for a group party.
