We had the mixed chicken platter and it came sizzling and it tasted quite good. We also ordered chicken momos and they were very nice and flavorful. For main course, we ordered some of their "signature dishes". These did not have the flavor or texture that we were expecting. Even the Avani chicken curry has chicken that was chewie and gravy was on the sweeter side. Their jackfuit vegetable was very bland and not well done.

Although we were not able to dine in and could only do a takeout but was really impressed by the whole ambience and setup . Would really come back when everything is normal again . Food - we ordered veg hakka noodles , gobi Manchurian and chat papri . All the food items were really delicious and freshly made . I particularly loved the chat papri . Although i felt that if there would have been more whisked curd , it would have been more delicious. The noodles and Manchurian were appropriate and cooked nicely with fresh ingredients. The packaging was good and all the safety precautions were taken care of . Highly recommend to everyone.

The food of Masala Canteen is eclectic in that it not only offers your favorite and standard Indian…read morefare, but like most Indian restaurants as I'm finding in the GTA incorporates Indo-Chinese fusion favorites as well. It was with this in mind that I decided on the chicken fried rice, with a side of chili chicken. The addition of plenty of green onions perfumed the rice and provided an extra bit of texture with the crunch. I did feel it could have done with an additional sprinkling or two of salt. I generally do not like bell peppers, but the addition of them in the chili chicken dish was not entirely off putting as they were not raw. The dish came with a nicely seasoned and spicy sauce, which was a good accompaniment to the fried rice. The gulab jamun (one piece per order) is bigger compared to what you'd normally expect when ordering this dessert at an Indian restaurant. Loved the addition of the crushed pistachios, which not only added a great contrast in texture, but also imparted its flavor into the syrup. Great, sweet ending to the meal.

The interior is beautiful and spacious, which is great for groups of all sizes. As someone who considers Indian food once of their favorite cuisines, coming here is like being a kid im a candy shop. All the curries have amazing flavor and just the right amount of spices, they make fresh naan & dosas to order, endless options of yogurts, chutneys, garnishes, fresh fruit/veg, and desserts. My favorite curries were the Kadai Paneer, Butter Butter Chicken, Malai Soya Chaap, and Palak Paneer. I've had their biryanis in the past as well and I do remember them being amazing just a little on the spicier side. When I go to buffets like this I typically focus on the proteins and freshly made breads. They have a large (if not the same quantity as the meat ones) variety for vegetarians as well. I like that some of the desserts they put up here are rotational and different from what you'd usually find at an a la carte or other indian buffets, like sweet white pumpkin and rose flavored rice pudding. They still have classics like gajar ka halwa, gulab jamun, and mango custard but it's always fun to try new stuff. I find that price is standard, if not slightly cheaper than other buffet formats like sushi, kbbq, hotpot, etc. and as someone who frequently enjoys eating solo I'd probably stick to coming around weekday lunchtime for a lower price. Service was deceng, I felt that my table was regularly kept clean but it took a while for me to get a water refill and more napkins. Overall I recommend Tandoori Flame, it's definitely a unique experience with what they offer & this is going to be one of my top spots for when I'm feeling a treat :)

First time here and had heard good things about it…read more Great ambiance which regrettably is not the norm for many Indian restaurants across the GTA - but the slight downer was that is was quite noisy which was equally on account of the patrons and the volume of the music We started with the Palak Patta Chaat ( which was as interesting as it was delicious ), Tandoori Veg Momos ( this was disappointing ) and the assorted non veg platter ( which was really good ) We followed this with both the chicken and lamb biryani - which were outstanding, Mishree Ki Dal Makhani ( expectedly heavy but delicious ) and Raita The youngest in our group had the Canadian favourite - yes you guessed right - Butter Chicken and Naan ( Naan Bread to the uninitiated) Overall the food would get 4 stars from me The ambience would get the same rating because only because I thought the place was too loud But I was surprised/disappointed with a few things which I would classify as unforced errors After we were seated, the very thing we were told was that we had the table for an hour and 45 minutes. Whaaaaat? If an establishment is going to charge me a healthy premium for the food then the last thing I want to hear from them as I sit down is when I have to target to leave At the end of the meal, we ordered dessert. While we waited for it, we packed the leftovers and then continued to wait.... After 10 minutes when we asked our server, she admitted that she had forgotten to place the order with the kitchen... we then cancelled desserts Then came the icing on the cake Our server asked us if our friends were celebrating their 10th anniversary. We said that they were. A few minutes later, she came with our bill. We paid and left So the final taste that we left with was not very mishree Come on guys - if you're positioning yourself as a premium eatery, then you raise my expectations .. and where you dropped the ball were on the basics You can and must do better

There were no coat hooks or coat check....surprising for such a beautiful and upscale place. The coats crowded our seats. They were kind enough to accommodate my need for water with meals by leaving a kettle with water for me. They do not leave jugs but our server, Snow, replenished the water for others regularly.. she was friendly, helpful and funny. Since I need vegan and gluten free the only items I could have were the salad without feta, yellow dal without ghee and plain rice. The fam loved the Afghan chicken tikka and paneer item they ordered. My dal was made without ghee as requested but was on the spicy side. The fam shared the chocolate cake and rabri desserts but zero vegan/gluten free dessert items. The decor is lovely and everyone was very professional. The meal was very expensive....well over $400 for 1 alcohol drink, 2 mocktails, 3 apps, 3 mains with 2 rice, 2naan and 1 parantha and 2 desserts. Hopefully you get Snow as your server as she was a delight. There was no DJs or live entertainment the night we went but they do have it on certain nights. It got very busy while we were there with folks of all ages. You can bring your own cake but they charge $5pp to serve it.

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.

Super irritated by the level of care here…read more I made reservations for 5pm when they open for 4 people and noted we were coming for my dad's birthday. As soon as we were seated and hadn't even poured our water the server came over and asked us if we were ready to order (5:03pm). We went through the menu and were ready to order. My mom went first, followed by me, my brother and then my father. Our food came out in that order - except my dad's. At 5:30pm the server came around and reminded us of the dining limit and I frankly pointed out that my father who's birthday it is hasn't gotten his food and we were told it was because it was burnt and being remade 10 mins ago... His food comes at 5:35pm and someone else comes around at 5:40pm reminding us that we are approaching the dining limit. Needless to say, the service was absolutely horrible - no apology for the late food just hurry up eat and get out. Never returning to this restaurant.

The interior decor was very Indian style. I didn't see any outdoor seating. I am not sure if they have carrier option but this place is a definite try for a dining option if you're looking for delicious authentic Indian food. The way the restaurant is set up is go and sit down. You get served your Indian vegetarian Gujarati thali. Like a regular restaurant, you don't get a choice of menu card or menu option from which you can pick your dinner. Everyday menu is decided and is served. This is a must try place. I highly recommend this place for any one who is interested in trying Indian food. They are family friendly and business casual. They have parking spot right in front of the restaurant where it's located like in a strip mall kind of place.
