Sitting in rural Nova Scotia I quickly Googled the dish and was surprised to find it served just 20 Km away. Even the name Scotia Curry is a bit of an oxymoron, our region being known for seafood and donairs more than curry and butter chicken. But what a great addition to our local cuisine. I, or course, had the lamb biryani. So good! Also gluten free and served with a gf lentil flatbread. It was pricey as compared to other options but it I took some home and it made a great lunch the next day. Generally the venue is mostly decorated, doesn't really add or detract from the food experience. They offer a reasonable drink menu and a wide selection of gluten and dairy free dishes.

It's larger than it was first time I visited, but still in the little strip mall off Chain Lake Drive. There are two rooms either side of the entrance, both cool, subtly lit and cozy. It was just after they opened on a summer's Thursday morning, so I was the first customer and quickly ordered the meat thali. This comes in six segments. Two meat curries which change from time to time (today it was beef and chicken). A very nice dahl, a good portion of rice, chickpea salad and a quartered plain naan. All very tasty and overall quite a sizeable portion. I was on the ravenous side of peckish when I arrived and left thoroughly stuffed, so you definitely get your value for the $23 with tip. It's not licensed, but has a nice line in cold drinks should you so desire. It's no surprise this place is consistently voted No.1 curry house in Halifax, though it has a lot more competition than it did when it first opened. Thoroughly recommended.

It has a nice color to it though. Food is pretty mediocre. I'd come back for a quick takeout but i'd go to other places if I actually want a real, good indian food.

When arriving at "Currey Express" the décor is sparse... Cafeteria like, but comfortable... We ordered our food, and when it arrived almost fell over backwards...

We wanted some Nann... but it wasn't included in the order... and it arrived in small pieces and obviously wasn't a whole piece...

I've had takeout two or three times and found the food to be first rate, but recently I dined in for the first time with the wife and a friend from UK. It's a small space, fairly plain, but comfortable enough. The food is mainly prepared at the main restaurant as I understand, with finishing touches applied here. The menu isn't as extensive, but any curry fan will find all they need and there are even some surprises, particularly in the breads. It was Saturday evening and two of the other tables were occupied, and I've noticed before that a lot of their customers are of Indian/Pakistani heritage, which is always encouraging. I went for the beef vindaloo, which was well spiced and nicely bitter. The others tried the chicken tikka masala and reported full satisfaction. We also had the aloo ghobi, dall, rice and a quite superb, huge naan. The poppadom to start were also excellent. Crispy, warm and tasty. All in all, exactly what we needed and there was enough left over to feed the two of us the following night! Price was just fine, especially given how much food you get. Will definitely be back.

Small bar at the end, maybe 40 covers, it's not much to look at, but that is often a good thing. As is the fact well over half the patrons were Indian/Pakistani on the evening I was there. I went for the Rogan Josh, aloo ghobi and a splendid Peshwari naan, plus garlic rice and a Kingfisher. The curry was properly spicy and nicely bitter. The ghobi was good and the rice not at all bad. Portions are generous, with plenty to take away for tomorrow's breakfast! Bill came in at a little over $50, which might be on the high side, but for what amounts to two whole meals, not too bad. All in all, an authentic curry house and a nice addition to the growing choice in Halifax. Recommended.

Very flavourful with just the right amount of spices. Loved it. Will definitely be back our next trip to Halifax.

We went to Mirchi Tandoor on a busy Saturday night, following a tip from a bartender at one of the…read morelocal breweries. That tip turned out to be pure gold! The place was very busy around 8PM, but we got a table right away. The first thing that gave us a great feel was the fact that we were two of the only four white patrons in the entire dining room. I knew we were in for a treat. The staff was fantastic, quickly bringing water to our table and checking to see if we were ready to order. We eat a lot of Indian food, and I've got a lot of Indian friends from many years working in software roles. So, we do tend to be a little jaded on the quality of Indian restaurants. I did see a few dishes and breads we don't typically see at home in our favorite Indian places. My wife has a tendency to order the same dish when we go out for Indian every time, and I have a tendency to want to try different things. I was able to convince her to try the Murg Lawabdar (chicken) entree. I have to say, that may really be the best single Indian dish I've ever had. It was probably smart for us to tell our waitress "medium" when she asked what spice level we wanted. Medium at Mirchi is pretty darn hot and spicy, but by no means unbearable like a Vindaloo can get to. Murg Lawabdar was like a thick curry gravy, with tons of spices and a good heat level. I think using chicken thigh brings even more flavor to the dish, which also includes green pepper, chilis, and a good bit of onion. We split one order of this, and we couldn't even finish the whole thing. Trust me, we tried. I couldn't stop eating, it was so good. We also got the spicy chili garlic roti bread. Oddly enough, not many of our Indian restaurants around home offer roti. Almost all of them offer naan, though. The funny thing about this roti was that it was also spicy, sprinkled with red chili pepper flakes. So, when you tried to cool the fire from the Murg Lawabdar with the bread, it just got hotter! So, make sure you order some raita to go along with your meal. That goes a long way toward cooling you off if you reach the five-alarm fire level with a spicy dish. This place has very low-key cool vibe in a relatively small dining room. The atmosphere is so good, I highly recommend eating in the dining room instead of getting it to-go. This is as authentic as it gets, and I can't stress enough that this was one of the very best Indian meals I've ever had.
