BEST Indian restaurant if you want to eat Chilli Chicken. very authentic flavours - seriously took…read moreme back to India when i had the first spoon. Also they are seriously good at literally everything that is on their menu. we tried the andhra coconut chicken curry, I was expecting it be oily and greasy but to my surprise - it not only looked good but tasted amazing! their naans can be done better but who cares when the basics are right. Also, not to mention - we went back again the next day to fulfill the cravings that we might not be able to get in Toronto (i know right?! - still in the hunt of a best indian restaurant in Greater toronto area) Definitely suggest this place if you are craving Indian food in Ottawa! :)

We have a long day biking along the canal and just wanted something to hold us over as I was more…read morethirsty than hungry so we ordered a few dishes to share. I have to admit I am not a huge Indian food fan and we usually go with another couple who loves Indian food and let them order. Since we were on our own we tried different dishes. Had the fried fish appetizer (which I can't remember the name of) which was really good! The tandoori seemed a bit strong but when you had it when sauce it's out of this world! Ordered the tandoori chicken and was blown away by the presentation of the chicken. I am a big fan of crispy chicken skin but was amazed at the smoked flavor, crispness of the outside of the skinless chicken and then the tenderness of the chicken. Now I am wondering if I have been ordering Indian food wrong all my life or is this restaurant in Ottowa so exceptional? It was definitely exceriona The waitstaff was all very friendly and we enjoyed our conversations with them. I only wish we lived in Ottowa so we could come back and try more menu items!

This is probably hands down the WORST place that has ever prepared my favorite dish, Korma. I…read moreordered this dish as take out and didn't see or taste it until I retuned from my $40 taxi ride back to my hotel. I ordered Shrimp Korma and asked it to be medium spice instead of mild. I was surprised when I opened the container when and disgusted when I tasted it. No curry spice. No spice at all. I was looking at a tin container of what tasted like undercooked shrimp drowning in yellow evaporated milk. NO flavor beside a disgusting sweet taste. I know not all Indian restaurants will make this dish the same, however I wouldn't feed this to my worst enemy. The owner suffered a credit when I return. Yeah, right!!! Steer clear. AWFUL, AWFUL, AWFUL!!! If I could give it negative stars I'd give it -5!

At the start of the New Year, I delivered an order from this restaurant with an aroma so delicious…read morethat I wrote it down. For my birthday dinner, I visited to dine in with my husband. We arrived a little before they were to open but were welcomed sit inside anyway. Even though we were the first patrons of the evening, my husband remarked that it did smell really good. For drinks, we ordered masala chai and the mango ginger mocktail. The chai was quite cardamon-forward, so enjoy depending on your own taste. The mocktail was delightfully balanced and refreshing. We also ordered a few appetizers: onion fritters, pani puri, and samosas. All were very good, but the samosas were the best. Even the dough was seasoned, so every bite was bliss. This was my husband's favourite dish. Our mains included an onion masala dosa, lamb curry, and chettinad chicken curry. - I was excited about the variety of dosas on the menu, but I may have forgotten how to eat one properly. It was nice and crispy on the edges, but the filling in the middle was dense, so the dosa stuck to its plate. - The lamb curry was tasty, though much of the meat was attached to bone, which made eating it a little more challenging for me. - The chettinad chicken curry was spicy, and the chicken was very tender. My husband noted that the chicken was clearly stewed in the sauce, rather than added at the end like some other Indian places do. Our server was attentive yet gave us space to enjoy our meal. At the end of the meal, our total was extremely reasonable given all that we ordered and how delicious it all was. We'll be back!

The tea tastes very good and reminds me of the tea my mom used to make at home. I had the devil chicken and it was very good. It was not too spicy but flavorful. None of the food was extremely spicy like other Sri Lankan restaurants so this would be a safe place for people who cannot handle spicy food too well but like the flavor. This place has a lot of Indian food options too but I did not try any of those since it is harder to find Sri Lankan food. (Sri Lankan and South Indian food share similarities but are not the same!)
