Curryish Tavern earns a solid 5 stars from me since it's the kind of playful, high-skill dining experience I'll happily trek to downtown for and plan an evening around. Ambiance was casual and comfortable. Service was friendly and very attentive. Food was served with a good tempo and our used plates and utensils were cleared in a timely manner. Our server explained each dish well and she also answered any questions we had on the ingredients or the dishes. We opted for their seasonal Maple tasting menu which featured special off-menu dishes centered around Maple as the cohesive ingredient across the dishes. The whole progression felt thoughtful and transportive, showcasing the flavors and spices of Indian cuisine using modern culinary techniques. First up, the Maple Coconut Stuffed Medu Vada was crisp on the outside, tender inside, and the combo of peanuts and maple gun powder with tomato chutney hit all the savory, spicy and sweet notes. The Maple Leaves Patta Chaat was a delightful explosion of flavors. Creamy maple yogurt, a little heat from the mirch maple, sweet potato for comfort, and crispy barley and sev for that perfect chaat texture party. Then, the hay-smoked maple glazed tandoori quail was packed with aroma and depth-- smoky, slightly sweet, and the goat's milk raita cooled things down just enough before the ghost pepper heat kicked in. The Nagaland Akhuni Maple Turmeric Sablefish was the stunner course for me: buttery, rich fish with those earthy fermented soya bean notes, plus black lentils grounding everything so it felt bold but balanced. The maple glaze added just the right tinge of sweetness. For the fifth course, I loved how the Maple Dates Glazed Lamb Ribs leaned into indulgence and was melt-in-your-mouth tender. The green pea mint malai made each bite feel extra cool. Though the lamb samosa was golden fried to perfection, I didn't enjoy the lamb filling inside due to the offal taste and mushy minced texture. For dessert, the Maple Mishti Doi Custard was creamy, tart, gently spiced, and the candied nuts added a crunchy texture to keep it interesting. We also did the non-alcoholic pairing, and I'm so glad we did. Three drinks total, and every single one was refreshing and handcrafted to match the food. The Lemongrass Coconut Paani (rice water, cinnamon, cardamom) was bright and cooling with courses 1 & 2, and it made the fritters and chaat feel even more snackable. For courses 3 & 4, the Rose Sharbat (non-alcoholic gin, blood orange, lime) brought a floral-citrus lift that played beautifully with the smoke, spice, and richness of the fish and quail dishes. The Coconut Mango Lassi (Alphonso mango, cardamom syrup) with courses 5 & 6 was a creamy and sweet, perfectly bridging us from the rich lamb dish into dessert. If you're into food that's adventurous, inventive and packed with exciting flavors, add Curryish Tavern's seasonal tasting menu on your must-try list. Curryish Tavern delivers a creative, cohesive tasting menu that honors Indian flavors and local ingredients. It's a memorable, travel-through-flavors kind of meal I'd gladly repeat! read more

I love Indian food, so was excited to try Curryish Tavern. I like how they blend Canadian and Indian elements together. I ordered the butternut squash butter chicken, the papadum and a side of rice. Food was too spicy for me, but otherwise it was good. If you don't like spicy food, I recommend you ask for the spice level to be lowered. read more

We reserved for a group of 10 on a weekday night and while browsing the menu, we were told that they also offer a family-style menu. Rather than a set price per person however, they simply served an assortment of dishes from the appetizers, mains, and desserts, charging per plate as they went. We picked some of the dishes we wanted to try, while they were given free rein to select the rest which was a mistake. For appetizers, we had the cheese curds samosa turnovers which were quite big and tasty ($8 each). This definitely could've been shared, but we were served one each. We asked for the Canadian Oysters Chaat to be included which were served with a fragrant chilli oil and was yummy. The Yellowfin Tuna Tartare Pani Puri was not good as the fish wasn't fresh and had a fishy smell - dissapointing since we had high hopes. The Maple Hakka Chicken Wings were good and resembled Chinese flavours due to the ginger scallion soy sauce. Under the mains category, we were served a lamb + pineapple upside-down biryani (staff pick) which tasted sour in an unpleasant way. Unfortunately, none of the table enjoyed it and most was left untouched, even when given takeaway containers at the end. My favourite was the Stuffed Paneer + Truffle Mushroom Korma (cashew cream, white onion masala, black cardamom), where the paneer served in a roll format that resembles a cinnamon roll. The sauce is to die for and I would definitely recommend coming just to try this. At the time it was missed, but we were charged $38/portion for this while on the menu it is listed as $29. We asked for the Molasse Braised Beef Cheek Curry due to high reviews on this dish, and without mentioning or asking, it came served with a roasted canoe bone marrow that is listed as an additional $12 on top. The marrow itself barely had anything in it either as 1/3 of what should've been fat on top that looked edible was actually just more bone. The ghee confit leg + foie gras curry didn't taste of foie gras at all, though the curry itself was quite good. The Coconut Vatan Stuffed Whole Branzino was the most surprising, with a citrusy turmeric lemon-butter sauce that made it a crowd favourite. Rice and bread are at an additional charge, which we were also served more of than we could've eat. And finally for dessert, we were served Mango Kulfi and Screech Rum Soaked Gulab Juman (similar to a cake). The gulab juman was a crowd favourite, while the kulfi was served on a plate and had components of falooda (i.e. vermicelli, rose water), making it an acquired taste. Service was quite slow and it took a bit of time for the food to come out, despite our table being the only ones in the restaurant initially. Also not happy with the amount of upsell and left feeling a bit scammed. read more

Warm, inventive, and delicious Indian fusion dishes in a comfortable environment. My only gripe is the portions are quite small (for what is typically a plentiful cuisine). Even sides like naans and rice will run you an additional $5-$7, which makes this a bit of a splurge rather than a neighbourhood favorite. read more

Pricey, but worthwhile. Maple Hakka Chicken Wings: A little sweet, mostly very salty, but delicious. Basically soy sauce and black bean sauce, maybe also with chili sauce on crispy fried wings. I'm not personally a huge fan of soy sauce heavy dishes like this (I'm also not a huge fan of the Peruvian-Chinese dish tallarin saltado if that helps at all), but it was good to try. Molasse Braised Beef Cheeks Curry: Rich, luxurious beef sauce and melt-in-your-mouth meat with four small rings of crispy onion. We just ordered roti on the side, but I would say order rice to soak up all that oily delicious sauce if your stomach can handle it. Would get again. Roti: Very small portion of two rotis, but was good and would get again (maybe one order per person). Falooda: I only had a bite, but it made me crave falooda ice cream. Aloe drink: I can't remember exactly what was on the menu, but it was some sort of non-alcoholic aloe-based drink that I wasn't sure I would like, but it was good. Maybe like a citrus aloe drink? Sweet and refreshing. Mango Lassi: This was incredible. They used coconut milk instead of yogurt and it was the best lassi I've ever had. Wish it was larger for the price! Would get again. read more

A expected, this is a creative, cosmopolitan Indian place with friendly, attentive service. Not every dish really wowed but all were interesting and flavorful, with the oysters chaat and the breads especially standing out. We opted for the chef's menu in order to sample more. No regrets there, but we got a little too much food and a bit of sticker shock. Would return to try a couple things we might have ordered ala carte. 4-5 stars overall. read more

It took a recent Yelp event to be introduced to Curryish. I loved the festive bites and cheerful boozy drink that I decided to check out the menu some more. I did brunch on a Saturday afternoon. This eatery is located in West Queen West. I am rarely in this neighbourhood, but I loved spending a few hours here. It's cool being a tourist in your own hometown. It's recommended that you book a reservation. There are Green P spots along Queen Street West. Using the Green P app to pay for parking is extremely convenient. I have also parked on a side street roughly three blocks away from this eatery. You get one hour of free parking. I managed to exceed my stay and was parked for three hours. My car was fine with no ticket. Whew! Even if you are late, staff are accommodating. I was late for my reservation time by twenty minutes. Miheer, the owner and chef of Curryish, was understanding and kind. He said that it was okay and led me to a table. I got the brunch menu. I had analyzed it before I drove over here. I knew what I wanted. I asked him whether the mithi roti desi toast was large. I had consumed a protein waffle earlier, which curbed my appetite. He said that I'd be okay. I also got mirch maple pork belly. I see pork belly on a menu and I must have it. I love how creative the food is at this eatery. The mithi roti desi toast was excellent. The flavours were so good. I crave fruit all the time, so to get some in this brunch dish was a bonus. The pork belly was phenomenal. I could eat it all day. It's seasoned well and had a ton of flavour while being tender. It had Indian flavours with the chef employing unique twists to make it special. My brunch main wasn't huge for the price that I had paid. I actually didn't want a huge portion, so it worked for me. Dishing out for fabulousness that I don't typically have is fine in my books. The flavours were amazing and thoughtfully curated. I used the washroom before I left. Most buildings in this neighbourhood were built many decades ago, so the washrooms are located downstairs. You do need to use the stairs that has a single handrail. This place isn't accessible for those who require mobility assistance. There are separate washrooms for men and women. The women's washroom had three stalls. The one that I used was clean and cute. There was a digital screen showing highlights of Canadian cities by the sink. I got to see Ottawa and Winnipeg highlighted while I dried my hand, which made me long to visit them. I had a wonderful time dining here. It is upscale Indian cuisine with many twists applied. I can't wait to return for more. (481) read more

The food here was so delicious! There are a lot of Fusion dishes that are executed so well. I can't pick a favourite item but the beef cheek and the cauliflower and gnocchi were mind blowing. Our servers were very friendly and knowledgable about all the menu items. They also gave us lots of great suggestions. The venue itself is cozy, and I can see it being really great in the summer because there's a garage door that they could open at the front to let in a warm summer breeze. read more

We stopped by for an early dinner and got the lamb and pineapple upside-down biryani ($33) as it looked interesting. The lamb was tender and the rice was well made. However, the pineapple was shaved so thinly that it look interesting draped across the top with an egg on top, but didn't do anything for the dish. I wish it was a bit more substantial so that it could actually be caramelized and tasted throughout the rice dish. Also, the dish itself could have been a bit more hot, as it was only lukewarm when it arrived to the table. Overall okay, but not a repeat dish for me. Lovely ambiance that would be great for a date night. read more

A cute and restaurant near Trinity Bellwoods that serves up Indian dishes with a fun twist. With all the different options, the waiter was patient and explained dishes in great detail. Another fun thing about the restaurant is that their menu seems seasonal, so it will be a different menus when you come back! Lamb + Pineapple Upside-down Biryani - The biryani was delicious! The lamb was cooked perfectly, with loads of flavour and super tender. The rice was also very tasty and had individual grain texture. The pineapple gave the dish a tropical aroma which was quite fun. I thought that the pineapples were sliced too thin so it added a bit of flavour, but it could have added more texture with the chunks. Also the cooked egg was a good aesthetic choice, but not sure how that contributed to the taste of the food. Screech Rum Soaked Gulab Jamun - A fun play on the indian soaked balls but a lot better! The cake was moist and fluffy even though it was saturated in syrup. The syrup itself was not too sweet and had subtle notes of rum and rose petals, delicious! There was also a good balance of texture with the cake and the granola as garnish! Would come back again. Good service good food, a bit pricey but I like their creative spirit. PS. beef cheeks looked good! read more

Checked out this restaurant on Queen West with a few friends. I really liked the quaint look outside. Inside the restaurant was long a narrow and not a whole lot of tables but I liked this modern approach to Indian cuisine. We ordered a bunch of plates to share. The broccoli pakora, chicken biriyani, beef cheek curry, butter chicken and duck confit curry. The broccoli pakora was light and crispy and came with two dipping sauces, tart tamarind and coriander both were good. The beef cheek curry was pretty good, had good depth of flavour and nice kick and the green tomato butter chicken was the best I had. If you are looking for Indian Food with an interesting twist, I would recommend checking this place out, but be prepared for dt pricing. read more

I encourage you to read poor reviews on google and TripAdvisoras well. The owner is dismissive and rude with his responses. I don't recommend booking an event at this restaurant for several reasons. Although staff or the owner will not tell you at the time of booking they claim the deposit they charge you is nonrefundable. If you need to cancel a booking, even well in advance of the date of the booking , they will not provide you with a refund or a gift card in the amount of the deposit paid. This goes against Ontario law. Staff are abrupt in their email communication and the owner has difficulty admitting his mistakes and correcting them. Overall, a very bad impression with Curryish Tavern, with the service I received, and the dishonesty and disrespect I was treated with. I cannot personally comment on the food or the environment as I have never visited the restaurant in person. However, I've heard from people in my family that the food is quite good. In early May 2025, I booked for a post wedding family brunch lasting three hours and taking place at the end of October. The restaurant sent me an invoice for a $500 deposit which I e-transferred the next day. Due to circumstances beyond my control, I had to cancel the reservation more than six weeks in advance of the booking. This is when I was informed that the deposit is nonrefundable, and when I requested a gift card in the amount of the deposit, the owner declined. This goes against the law in Ontario. There are a lot of other restaurants in Toronto with excellent food and service where you could reserve for 30 people for brunch, where policies are made clear and when unfortunate events arise, and a cancellation needs to be made, patrons are cheerfully and respectfully compensated. read more

Wow!!!! This was a meal to think about for a long time. Most definitely my favorite I enjoyed in Toronto. We came in for the Summerlicious price fixe menu on a Sunday evening at around 6pm. We made a reservation, but it was not needed as the restaurant was quite open. The interior was nicely decorated, and the large window was open, perfect for people watching. For appetizers we got the Mirch Marinated Baby Shrimp + Chilled Watermelon Rassam, and the Samosa Radga Chaat. -Mirch Marinated Baby Shrimp + Chilled Watermelon Rassam: this was delightfully refreshing on a warm summer evening! The flavor combination of the mustard seeds, shrimp, and watermelon was spectacular. The watermelon was crisp and perfectly sweet. -Samosa Radga Chaat: this was the best samosa I have ever had! The sweetened yogurt and mushy peas were the perfect creamy contrast to the crunchy samosa. The pomegranate seed garnish added additional texture and tartness. As mains, we ordered the Achari Char - Mussels Curry + Idiyappam, and Chicken Tandoori + Charred Pepper Makhani. -Achari Char - Mussels Curry + Idiyappam: this is the best dish I had during my time in Toronto. The fish was perfectly cooked, and flaky with crisp skin. The mussels were tender and flavored with the coconut curry. The cilantro vatan coated the vermicelli noodles creating a stew-like base for the seafood. The curry was creamy but very fresh with the cilantro, making it the entree for a summer evening. -Chicken Tandoori + Charred Pepper Makhani: the chicken was cooked perfectly and was delightfully crispy on the outside. The charred red pepper makhani had a deep flavor and perfectly thick texture, which was great for dipping roti into. For dessert, we got the Peach + Mango Falooda Kulfi, and the Berry Coconut Pudding. -Peach + Mango Falooda Kulfi: this was the best mango dessert I have ever had (and I have eaten many mango desserts)! It was a deconstructed falooda in kulfi form. The mango flavor of the kulfi was unique and addicting! I could have eaten another even after eating a full meal before. -Berry Coconut Pudding: this dessert was also incredible. I usually don't enjoy coconut puddings as the hard/stringy texture of the coconut interferes with the creaminess of the pudding, but this was oh so different! The coconut was so soft and light, it must have been very fresh. Additionally, the cinnamon berries were the perfect touch to make this pudding well rounded. This will be my first stop when I'm back in Toronto. In addition to the incredible food, the servers were attentive and kind, and even gave us more local restaurant recommendations.

Love this modern take on Indian dining. The decor and open kitchen is such a vibe. The aroma is to die for makes you want to order everything. They have a some what of a seasonal rotating menu. The ginger mojito is delicious. The pineapple lamb briyani was my favourite. The lamb was so tender and the egg on top was the perfect pairing. There beef cheeks were also tender with the option to add bond marrow the curry was on the spicy side for me, but I liked it lol. I also tried lentils that came with streamed kale and the Montreal style paratha. Honestly such a wonderful curated menu. The staff were attentive and kind.

I've been here twice, once for dinner and once for brunch. The dinner wasn't that great, and the brunch was only slightly better. It's a cute spot and the menu has so much potential with the fusion but the dishes just don't hit the spot. The best dish we ordered at brunch was the mithi roti desi toast. The portions are also small and I believe the chef was the one also tending to all the tables. read more

Came here for brunch and enjoyed my time there, will definitely come back! Food: I tried two items from their brunch mains - the Samosa Eggs Benny and the Full Maharaja Breakfast. Both came with a side of roasted potatoes. The star of the eggs benny for me was the samosa perched under the poached eggs. The pastry dough was nice and buttery, it could be a stand-alone item! The Full Maharaja Breakfast had a nice spread of nutritious elements. I will admit, the lamb sausage was slightly on the drier side but a unique protein for a breakfast plate. For my next visit, I would try other brunch mains or their dinner menu to step further outside of my food-tasting comfort zone. Service/atmosphere: Our waitress gave great customer service. Chef Miheer was also around the dine-in area to greet customers and answer any of our questions about the menu which really helped with my decision on what to try on the first visit. read more

First and foremost, it was so amazing to sit at the bar and talk to the bartender because she's got so many stories to share. What I love the most was that every dish that came out had a story towards it, and the most amazing part of the whole experience was that we got to talk to the chef and hear his story. While I did not get pictures of everything that we ate and I'm pretty sure we tried everything off the snack menu my favourite was the oyster chaat and the pork belly. I have to say the chai martini was delicious! I genuinely can't wait to come back here again read more

Amazing food | Great service | Value for money I was fortunate enough to attend a tasting with my good friend Johnny of Cheat Day Everyday. Let me say, the red carpet was rolled out! I've never experienced service like this before and I left on cloud 9. Firstly, the sat us outside which I normally wouldn't opt for but it was a really warm evening and it was better lighting for the foodie photos. We got drinks, apps, mains and desserts. Curryish tavern is Canadian and Indian fusion and all ingredients are locally sourced which is so amazing. Everything was beyond flavourful, beautiful and well constructed. I'd say the stand outs for me were the oysters which were SO fresh and the lamb shank with grapes and kale?? Such an amazing and unexpected combination. We not only got naan but also a gluten free version which was extremely good and a great alternative. I could rave forever about the food - but all I want you to know is that every dish was outstanding. My only "meh" would be dessert. The cake and custard/yogurt we had were not as good compared to the rest of the meal. I know they were recipe testing so perhaps they've switched those items out after the summer time. read more

The highlight of our meal was a squash butter chicken. It was so delicious one of the best little chickens. I've had the chaat appetizer was really good too. We got the pineapple upside down biryani and it was average, but there wasn't actually any pineapple so that was a misleading but I think it was a play on words of sorts, and they were trying to be creative with the name. overall the meal was tasty and we had a good experience. The price point is higher than most Indian restaurants. read more

Curryish presents immense creativity in their Indian inspired menu with plenty of fresh takes on classic dishes. It definitely still feels like a restaurant that's finding its identity, with some big hits but also a few misses - fortunately they were mostly hits! Here's the rundown: - Starting with drinks, we got the margarita (great and spicy) and the raspberry boom (way too sweet with all the muddled fruit) - Tuna tartare pani puri: was a miss for me but interesting to try. The squid ink was a bit overpowering, the pani (sauce) was one dimensional and musky in flavour, and the tuna was barely tastable. It's hard to beat the classics, and this one was their one big miss in my opinion. - Potato and pear salad: this one was super interesting with lentils, pomegranate seeds, chili oil, mint, and more - overall made for a great bite - Everything bagel parotha: this was decent, could've used a bit more butter and salt, but overall a bit underwhelming for $7 a parotha - Paneer kofta: this was great, with earthy flavors and plenty of mushrooms - Braised beef: my absolute favourite! The beef was immaculately tender, the sauce had the perfect blend of spice and heat, and the onion rings made for a great crunch. Overall I'd say this spot is great and worth trying, just be careful with what you order. It was also pretty pricy for what it was, the portions were definitely on the smaller side. I'd recommend ordering some rice with the mains to take full advantage of the curries and get better bang for your buck. Taste is subjective and Curryish is going to be controversial for many, but it is worth a try! read more

I'm not sure I've ever had an Indian food themed brunch before, so when I found out about Currish Tavern and their weekend brunch menu, I was more than a little excited. We showed up a little before noon on a recent Sunday and the place was empty. I struggled to pick a dish from a list of very tasty options, but I ultimately decided to go with the Smashed Lamb Bhuna Burger ("Masala cheese, fried egg, bib lettuce, masala fries"). It's a really tasty concoction. The tender, flavorful lamb patty is complemented perfectly by the other components, including a well-cooked fried egg and a pillowy bun, while the masala fries round out the dish superbly. (The included sauce, which is sweet and tangy, is an ideal dip for those fries, too.) (I suppose my one complaint would be the lack of texture within the burger. The whole thing was just soft on soft on soft. Pickled onions or something of that ilk would add a much-needed bite to the dish.) The service was terrific, too. But we were the only ones in the restaurant the entire time we were there, which I think might be a result of the rather expensive cost of the food. $25 for what is essentially a burger and fries does seem like a slightly exorbitant price point, admittedly. The food was super tasty all around, though, so I suppose I can't complain. And I would certainly return to try some of their dinner dishes. read more

indian food modernized hi, the intent of the restaurant is to romanticize Indian food and ethnic food. what you know from traditional Indian food is heavy, buttery comfort, mom, and Pop shop. This is still gives you that beautiful taste of Indian flavors, yet chic and trendy. The food was very flavorful, creative and refreshing. well balanced overall for starters, we got the oysters, pani puri tuna tartare, and scallops. all the appetizers were amazing, especially the pani puri and scallops. for mains we got lamb briyani and the duck confit curry. slightly over season, but tasty nonetheless. To end the night we got there mascarpone faked, pistachio cake that was one of the best desserts I've ever had. Traditionally, the desert is supposed to be soaked in super sweet, heavy syrup, but this was the perfect amount of sweetness with flavors of rose and pistachio . a must try. Their drinks were creative as well. I would recommend the chai drink, similar to an espresso martini with chai tea instead. The staff and owner are the sweetest people you'll ever meet. Super down to earth and very talkative with the guests. If you're looking for a date night or something new to try, I definitely recommend the spot, read more

EVERYTHING was absolutely delicious! I had the tasting menu, all vegetarian. It was an absolute feast: I would not hesitate to recommend it! I joked with the Chef that he had "ruined" me for regular Indian food. Every element of each dish was delicious; everything was light too...not like w traditional Indian food. My lunch companion had pappadum with an extremely tasty chutney as well as a main course w pork belly; she really enjoyed both dishes and would not hesitate to recommend this place either. The only issue was that the room seemed to not be heated much and we were beside the main outdoor windows, so it was chilly. I felt a bit sorry for the Chef since we were the sole customers, so I didn't complain about the cold, but as I was putting my coat on at the end, I saw the space heater right beside us that would have kept our hands warm throughout the meat. Otherwise, all was super. read more
