    Not good. Chicken masala and stale rice
    Krystle A.

    I'm only speaking from tasting the chicken masala. It was not good at all, tasted old and the spices just didn't add up to tasting good at all. The rice didn't even taste like basmati, it tasted old and stale. Do not recommend coming at all. Service was nice but the food was just not good. I thought there would be a good Indian place bc the population in Canada is mostly Indian, but this wasn't good. Located upstairs next to a pizza place. Just go to the pizza place.

    This was one of the only places open late for dinner. My friend & I went to watch the sunset on the gondola & didn't return until 9pm. By that time, most places in downtown Banff were closed! It was April & we wanted something warm so getting Indian curry was a good option. It's not the best Indian food but maybe the best you'll find in Banff. My friend noticed that they never asked for a spice level, and she thought the curry was just about as spicy as she could handle. I thought it was mild & a good spice level.

    Veg Korma and Mutter Malai Paneer
    Jina P.

    It's your typical westernized indian food...let me preface by saying not for Indians. The butter chicken was basic...sweet and extra creamy. The veg korma and mutter malai paneer used the same base so there was no difference and it looks like they used a whole bag of frozen vegetables. There was barely any paneer. I would skip on those. The naan were hot, fresh, & soft! The service was okay, we had to go track him down for the bill but if you can, try another place as this one was just alright.

    Garlic naan(beyond delicious), jasmine rice, chicken tikka masala and butter chicken. Everything was delicious.

    We had lunch here on our first day in Banff. My wife and I love Indian food but rarely try new places. We sure are glad we tried this place. The location, second floor, has a great view of the Main Street and the staff was great. We ordered butter chicken, jasmine rice and chicken tikka masala. The portions are good size and the food was delicious. Definitely recommend this place and if we are ever in Banff would definitely go here again.

    Butter chicken dosa
    Ava K.

    Came at 5:30 for dinner. Was not too busy yet. Very quick service. I got the butter chicken dosa. Dosa was good but the butter chicken was bland. Wished I had gotten the plain dosa or the masala dosa instead. The coconut chutney that came with the dosa was also bland. The sambar was actually good and flavorful.

    My husband and I were looking for some food places and stumbled upon this place and I'm glad we did. It is hidden, its upstairs so don't miss it. To start we had their garlic bread, samosas which were great. Also had their vegetable pakora which I did not like, that is one thing I did not really like. Also had their chicken curry which was outstanding! With white rice. WE really enjoyed the food, it was just enough for both of us between the appetizers and the main dinner. I would return here and recommend it to everyone. Food was quick to come. Thanks for the great service.

    We were looking for somewhere to eat while in Banff town when we happened upon this place. We were seated right away. I was impressed by their menu. They had so many good options. I love that they had plenty of vegetarian items. We started with the samosas. I feel like you can't mess up a samosa. These weren't the best I have had, but they were good. For my main meal, I had the vegan chicken masala. It was super spicy for me. I ate it, but I couldn't finish it due to the spice. The vegetarian chicken had a squishy texture to it. The rice was extra, but one order is good enough for 2-4 people. Service was meh. My friend couldn't decide what she wanted after I ordered. My food came out and I was halfway through before we could flag someone down to take her order. The good thing was that food did come out pretty quickly.

    Mysore dosa & podi dosa

    When I called the restaurant, they said Mysore dosa can be made Jain (no onion, no garlic, no potatoes) without the masala (which has potatoes). I had even mentioned I am allergic to these ingredients. I ordered and finished the dosa and it was tasty. When I asked for extra jain sambhar, they gave me non-jain and I asked them confirm as I could see onions and had to confront them to replace it. After sometime when my friends joined and asked to order Jain Mysore Dosa, the other waiter mentioned that they can't make it Jain. So basically they made me eat non-Jain food. The restaurant folks need to educate all their staff members and make sure they do not violate a person's religious/food preferences. Had I been allergic to it, it would have been a big issue.

    Butter chicken and garlic naan with basmati rice
    Jaslean A.

    Great service and honestly some of the BEST butter chicken I've ever had in my LIFE!! The perfect Indian comfort food. I was so happy that had Nimbu soda here too!

    Michelle D.

    Food was ok... idk if the style of how the tikka masala is made is maybe from a diff part of India but from what we are used to... it seemed to have a tomato type taste n seemed heavier than what we get back home here in the Bay Area. Flavor was good but not the taste we are more familiar with. Our server was really nice and attentive but for craving and wanting to give Indian food a shot here we were a little disappointed.

    Aloo Paratha - yum yum yum!!
    Nikki V.

    There is no doubt that Canada has some of the best Indian foods outside India. So, I already had high expectations when I went to this place but oh wow, this place did actually surpass my expectations. I loved their Butter Paneer dosa!! It looked so delicious both the times that I had ordered it that I could not take a picture haha! Then we also ordered other things like aloo paratha - it was yum!! The staff was friendly, the only thing was when we ordered biryani rice as a side, they got it in an extremely hot dish that almost burned my fingers. We complained about it to the staff, and they heard us out and apologized. The place has nice views of the mountain and is decorated with Taj beers :) definitely check it out if you're in Banff!

    Zyka Elevated Indian Restaurant is a must-visit gem hidden on the second floor in the heart of…read moredowntown Banff. The easiest way to find it is to look for the Zyka sign around Banff Ave--otherwise, you might end up on a bit of a maze-like journey through the mall. You can easily access it via the stairs or elevator. Inside, the decor is clean, modern, and warm. There are lots of tables in the restaurant, so this is a great choice if you have a large group (although you should make reservations to guarantee seating). If you are lucky enough to score a window table, you get front-row seats to incredible mountain views and great people-watching. Zyka offers a buffet at lunch alongside a large à la carte menu for lunch or dinner. The food was absolutely spectacular. Their butter chicken is easily one of the best I have ever had! The chicken is deeply marinated and served in a rich, thick sauce with a perfectly balanced blend of onion, tomato, yogurt, and masala. If you love a thick curry that clings perfectly to your rice and bread, this is it! The matar paneer was equally hearty and flavorful, boasting another beautifully thick sauce with just the right amount of a spicy kick. But the real showstopper? The garlic naan. Finding excellent naan is rare--it's usually too bland or too dry. Zyka's naan is fresh, delicious, and has the perfect chewy stretch. Our family of five loved the garlic naan so much that we actually purchased eight more orders to go! Pro-Tip for dairy-free/lactose-intolerant diners: You can ask the incredibly friendly staff to leave the butter off the garlic naan. Remarkably, even without the butter, Zyka's garlic naan was still soft, flavorful, and not dry at all. Highly recommended! I am super sad that it is difficult to find an Indian restaurant as good as Zyka in Los Angeles ... and yes, I have been to many Indian restaurants, including in Artesia (AKA "Little India").

    ZYKA was delicious!…read more I was a little nervous trying Indian food in Banff especially when I saw I had to take stairs to get to the restaurant. You're literally transported into a booming restaurant with savory scents and smoking dishes! I was worried because the waiter didn't write anything down but everything came out exactly as we ordered. It was so exciting to see the dosas flying out of the kitchen. I've never tried a dosa before and I'm really glad I waited until coming here. We got a potato dosa which is a crepe shaped bread full of potato and dipping sauces. I would go back for this alone. Then going to all of there tikka!!! The plates came out smoking and all the meat was tender and packed with flavor! The last thing I'll note was the masala dishes!! THE ROG AND JOSH is a must! But if you have a hike tomorrow I would stick with the dosa or tikkas!

(The only other spot to ever pull this off for me is Verde Rekado in Coron, Philippines!). Cucumber Salad ($9.99 CAD): This was wonderfully refreshing and reminded me of lightly pickled Korean cucumber side dishes, bursting with savory garlic and umami flavors of fish sauce. Char Siu Marinated Tofu ($4.44 CAD): They managed to perfectly capture the iconic sweet-and-savory flavor profile of Char Siu pork without any actual "porkiness." The tofu was beautifully firm, perfectly cooked, and thoroughly marinated inside and out. The Nourishment Bowl ($24.24 CAD): This bowl is large, and I paired it was the Char Siu Marinated Tofu. The brilliant addition of a subtle coconut cream, paired with roasted vegetables and quinoa, perfectly softened the rough texture of the raw shredded carrots and greens; This combination elevates this bowl so that you don't feel like you're "just eating a salad" for dinner. Tempura Tacos ($17.17 CAD): These tacos were absolutely divine! Nourish restaurant has somehow mastered the art of frying avocados so that the batter is flawlessly crispy on the outside, while the inside remains warm, rich, and smooth. If I could eat these in Los Angeles, I would honestly never miss battered fish tacos again. Summer Shoyu Ramen ($22.22 CAD): Featuring a deeply comforting, hearty roasted garlic and soy broth. They brilliantly give the broth a slightly velvety, thicker-than-water body with just the right amount of oil. It completely tricks your palate into thinking it was simmered for hours with meaty bones, rather than being a boring, thin vegan soup. I wish we had such an amazing vegetarian restaurant like Nourish in Los Angeles!!

    Vegetarians and Vegans Rejoice…read more.... On the same day my family of 5 from California had a great lunch at Banff Social, we went back to town for a late dinner at Nourish Bistro. What great food! Overall: 5 - Location: 5 - Exterior: 4 - Ambiance: 4 - Menu: 5+ - Food: 5+ - Service: 5 - Price and Value: 5 - Bathroom: 3 - Parking: 3 Pros: - Location: Convenient to the downtown area. In the midst of everything. - Exterior: Small, but with an inviting outdoor patio. - Ambiance: Casual. A vegan/vegetarian restaurant with the look and feel of the 1960s and 70s. I was around and that's a good thing. - Menu: Creative and inventive. Who says vegans and vegetarians can't be delivered great choices? - Food: Unbelievably good and healthy. I ordered the Nourishment Bowl with an extra Falafel ($20) which had a variety of super ingredients. Filling and tasty! One of those each day and I'll live to 100. My wife had Tempura Tacos ($16)...a plate of 3 large and, of course, healthy tacos. So big she gave one away. Others orders included a Nourishment Bowl with extra Tofu ($26)...Cucumber Salad with Tofu ($17)...and Summer Shoyu Ramen with Tofu and Chili Oil ($30). Nobody could believe how good these were...especially with preconceived notions of vegan dishes. - Service: Very good. Our server, "PM", was friendly, informative and helpful. - Price and Value: Not cheap, but reasonable Cons: - Bathroom: As with many small restaurants, the bathrooms are shared with other establishments. No problem. But it was kind of far away and not the cleanest. - Parking: You'll probably need to walk a few blocks since the downtown core of Banff has many more shops than parking spaces. Not only would we recommend Nourish for dinner, but we ordered take-out for lunch the next day and THAT was great!
