I went back in my car, sat for a couple of minutes, and called them. To my surprise they picked up and accepted my order. I was even told it would take about 25 minutes on a Thursday evening at around 7:20pm. And so, I waited in my car, walked into the store periodically to find out the whereabouts of my Paneer Makhani $6.99 and Palak Gosht $8.99. The third time I came around to check, it seemed as if they forgot to make my order, and told me another 10 minutes. Waited exactly 1 hour and 12 minutes before I got my food (at this my stomach was eating itself), and when I asked to use my 10% off discount from Yelp check-in, the younger staff did not acknowledge the discount and told me I cannot use it. Again, while I loved the food I don't think I will ever make a repeat visit. Not only was I refused the 10% discount, but the staff was unapologetic about making me wait 1 hr and 12 minutes when I was told 25 mins. Had I known, I would have gone to Popeyes next door to avoid this nuisance. Thank you and goodbye.

I ordered their Fried Chicken Leg on Top, served with Fried Rice for only CDN$9.00 on their Lunch Menu. Even though I was dining in, it was served in a takeout container that was packed full of food. It was heavy! Opening the box revealed a ton of food, packed to almost overflowing. This was not a case of them using a small box. It was packed! After being impressed with the portion size, especially for the price, I have to say I was a bit disappointed with the flavour. The chicken was fine but the fried rice was just kinda blah. It had no "wok hei". It needed a much hotter wok. It wasn't terrible but it definitely wasn't good. The ambiance is simple and sparse, with bare walls and minimal decor. It looks like it may have been a bit more posh at one time. At least it was clean and bright.

I love indian food so I was excited to try the Goat Xacutti as it's something new but it ended up tasting exactly like the Chicken Tikka. And the Chicken Tikka didn't taste like what Chicken Tikka usually tastes like. They both tasted like and amalgamation of every curry all mixed together. It was flavorful, but there was no distinct flavor. The Bhel Puri was yummy, but they served us wayyyy too much for only a party of 2. The garlic naan was fine. I also ordered the sweet lassi, which was tasty. The seating was fine and they had a coat rack which was nice. It's open late (till 11pm) which is convenient and why I might come here again, but otherwise the food did not stand out to me at all.

Midway through the painfully slow setup process, the entire store started filling with the scent of something glorious. Rich spices, buttery warmth... it was the kind of smell that stops conversations. Everyone working there was Indian, and they were all clearly just trying to wrap up my account so they could dig into whatever just got delivered. I had to ask--where's that food from? "Kothur," they said, almost in unison. That was the recommendation, and it stuck with me. I walked by the place once. The exterior didn't scream "hidden gem." Thought about ordering delivery a few times but never followed through. Life, you know? Today, I finally went. From the outside, still nothing to write home about. But walk in, and it's a different story. Clean, cozy, and exactly the kind of no-fuss Indian spot you'd expect to stumble upon in the heart of a big city. The food? Solid. Spices landed right. Everything was warm, comforting, and satisfying. It's not trying to reinvent Indian cuisine--it's just doing it well. If you ever find yourself sniffing the air near a phone shop and wondering what that divine smell is--it might just be Kothur. TL;DR Not flashy. Surprisingly good. Smelled it before I tasted it. Worth it.

Based on a recent visit at lunchtime on a weekend, they are more popular for takeout orders than for sit down dining. I ordered butter chicken and garlic naan. Both were very good. The portion sizes were large enough to fill me up and take home leftovers. They provided a container for the butter chicken and aluminum foil for the naan as well as a paper bag. I can't complain about the service. Our server greeted us at the door, showed us to our table and took our order in a timely fashion. He was able to answer our questions about the menu too. The interior is clean and nicely decorated. There's plenty of parking near the entrance.

This may just be a matter of personal preference but we thought it was just average overall. The…read moredecor was very nice and clean, which set good expectations, but other aspects fell a bit short. Prices were on the high end, and the menu wasn't the easiest to navigate--especially if you're not familiar with Indian cuisine like me. For instance, I ordered the Aloo Parantha expecting it to be similar to samosas filling, but it turned out to be spicier than anticipated. Food wise, both the mango lassi and samosas were good, but very pricey for what it is. I didn't enjoy the paneer, but I believe that's more a personal preference than a flaw in preparation. The lamb roganjosh came with more meat than I expected, which was great, and the lamb itself was tender--but the curry felt like it was missing something flavor-wise. I've never had this dish elsewhere, but it just didn't seem to live up to the description from the menu. One thing that really bugged me: several of us ordered garlic naans and we expected them to be served separately since they were ordered separately. Instead, they combined multiple orders into two plates, which made it a bit inconvenient since the half of the orders were placed at the other end of the table. It's a minor thing, but with a restaurant positioned as fine cuisine, individual plating would have been better. In summary, it wasn't a bad meal, but it didn't really stand out either--and for the price, I expected a bit more.

We had the appetizer platter, the tandoori platter, the masala dosa, beef rogan josh, and fish madras. You order rice and naan separately, so we ordered one rice and two naan for four people. I can't recommend the appetizer platter and tandoori platter enough!! You get so much for the price and get to try a bit of everything. The appetizer platter came loaded with various fried goodies. I loved the freshly made samosas. The tandoori platter was the highlight of the meal for me as each type of meat was cooked so well, full of their distinct flavors but still moist and tender. It came in a sizzling smoking hot to the table and we devoured it. The two curries were also delicious, but were overshadowed by my love of the tandoori.
