If you're looking for a bloody amazing Kathiyawadi food, this is the place to be. We went there a…read morecouple of times when we were in Toronto and now this is the first place that occurs when we are visiting Toronto. Their Thali is a must try. It has two curries, rice/khichdi, dal/kadhi, farsaan, a sweet and roti/rotla. I love their "Olo" (roasted eggplant). And if you have rotla (Millet flat bread) with it, nothing better can exist. The other snacks are also worth trying. The seating space limited as most of their orders seems to be takeaways. The service is decently quick. Even if it is slow, the food is definitely worth the wait. There's plenty of parking outside and it's not crowded ever from what I've witnessed. There's an Indian grocery store one shop away from it, so it's a great place to combine your Indian grocery trip and lunch.

There are very few authentic Gujarati restaurants in the GTA. Most of the restaurants where you eat…read moreIndian food comes from the Northern/Punjab region of India. Lately we have a trend of South Indian/Sri Lankan restaurants and foods. All the above are good, but unique is the Gujarati food which comes from the Gujarat state/province of India. At this location there used to be a Gujarati buffet which closed down and this Shriji has opened a few years ago. Finally made the trip to this place. The thali consists of 2 vegetable dishes out of the four available, a daal/lentil or a kadhi (spiced yogurt soupy dish) and either rice or Khichdi (a mushed rice and green mung connotation). We took one tendli/tindora/ivy gourd curry with potatoes and a Oondhiyoo (a variety mixed Vegetables with a chickpea flour stuffed with fenugreek/methi and spices dumpling) and the daal and rice. The thali also comes 3 chappatis which are unique in the sense they are flat bread made on tawa/griddle. The chappatis are supposed to be paper thin and when cooked properly fluff. The tendli and potatoes were spiced to perfection, the potatoes slightly over cooked, but great. The Oondhiyoo (if translated means upside down) was great and had tons of veggies but very few dumplings/moothiya very few. Spiced correctly. All Gujarati dishes have a slight sweet taste as well because the guud/jaggery/hard raw rock brown sugar. The only downside on the dishes were that they were too oily/greasy. Would prefer if they cooked with less oil. Asked for fried green chillies in the side, but they turned out to not spicy at all (not their fault, natures, BTW). The chappatis were 10/10. Perfectly cooked, paper thin and had the customary two layers (proof that they puffed). Could have those 365 days! For those who haven't tried these highly recommend to try. The Indian naans are traditionally not cooked in every households, but chappatis are, but the Gujarati chappatis are the best and here they reflected the true chappatis. We also ordered 4 Bajara Rotlas - Pearl Millet thick chappatis made again on a griddle. They sold by pairs (2/$2). They were amazing as well. For those who love ancient grains, these are a MUST TRY. A perfect place for take out, although sit is not bad. No table service. The self serve area was clean. Hindi songs in the background. Typical. Also want to try Jowar Rotlas next time. Sorghum thick chappatis. Another ancient grain if you haven't tried Gujarati style.

I also the Zara mutton which are tender pieces of goat curry on top of a bed of minced chicken keema. The dahi was splendid and went well with the little pickle provided. Lastly we had kulfi falooda and that too was amazing. This place is a must.

I especially liked the gravy they provided, one for each parantha.

Since it was our first time visiting, we weren't sure what to expect. Within 10 minutes of is being seated at a comfortable booth, the place filled up to capacity. That's always a good sign! This was confirmed when our dishes arrived. Crispy and full of flavour. This is the type of food that needs to be enjoyed fresh. You will be disappointed if you use a delivery service. Do yourself a favor. Get off the couch, and treat yourself to a change of atmosphere with these dosas.

Best South Indian breakfast I've had in a while!…read more I went to this restaurant for Sunday brunch after seeing all the great reviews, and the food absolutely lived up to them. Surprisingly, there were only two or three people serving, even though the menu is quite extensive. After waiting a little while, our server came over and we ordered the Idli Vadai Combo, Uttappam, Kheema Dosa, and filter coffee. Everything was amazing! The food tasted incredibly fresh, and what I especially loved was that it wasn't overly fermented like you sometimes find at other South Indian restaurants. It genuinely felt like eating breakfast in Chennai. The food alone made me give this place 5 stars. The ambiance was also very pleasant and made the experience even better. My only small gripe was the service. We had to wait a bit to place our order, and I had to remind them about part of the order. But considering how good the food was, I can easily overlook that. I'm from Southern California, and unfortunately we don't get South Indian food this good very often. I would happily come back here again and again. Highly recommended!

I had a plain dosa with coconut chutney, made just like they do in India, nice and crispy. Loads of chutney. We also had the parota with a side of egg curry, and egg masala, very nice. Would probably want to go back for the egg curry soon. I had a tea to start the meal, it was nice, light tea flavour with rich milk. Thank you for the welcome dining experience, we can't wait to come back to try the rest of the menu.
