I love Indian cuisine and Dil Se offers the best variety of high quality and tasty Indian dishes…read more The restaurant spreads through 2 floors; main floor with the main bar and booths/tables for couples or groups. For larger group gatherings and event, there is a spacious dining area below ground with a separate bar. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. I have tried different dishes on their menu and there's not a single dish I didn't enjoy or I wouldn't recommend. Each dish is put together with their unique spices and flavours. And the presentation is beautifully done. I strongly recommend "Chicken Kamasutra", "Butter Chicken", "Shahi Paneer" and the variety of their roti, paratha, naan and kulcha.

My sister loves this place so she took us all there to celebrate her birthday. Right away I loved the pink colour and warm, opulent vibe of the restaurant. And I loved the elegant dishes and cute touch lamps on the table. There was so much on the menu so I just trusted her to order for all of us. Wow! It was an epic birthday lunch! My favourites were the egg plant fries, charcoal butter chicken, palak paneer spinach and butter naan. And the cucumber raita really helped because I prefer mild spices and my family likes everything spicy! Here's what we ordered... MOJITO Refreshing and minty cocktail originating from Cuba, the Mojito is perfect for hot summer days. White Rum, Mint Leaves, Lime Juice, Simple Syrup, Soda Water, Ice (Mango version) CUCUMBER RAITA Yogurt based side with assorted spices, shredded cucumber, a great accompaniment to help you handle the spice.

And if it were run by my childhood best friend, it'd be Brotherfromanothermother India. What to get: Chicken Tikka Masala with Roti or Rice What not to get: India-pendence from the bloody Brits, not without a lot of bloodshed first :( Ways to improve: Slightly lower prices, slightly shorter wait times It may take awhile for your wonderful, delicious Roti to be ready, but it's worth the wait. The lovely young woman serving here does so with a smile, and is as gracious and welcoming has her food is magnificent. Indian food is plentiful in Toronto, but few places blend the spices with fresh doughy roti as wonderfully and magnificently as Mother India. I think it is quite liberal use of the word mother, because I doubt too many Indian mothers can make their food taste this good. The Tikka Masala dish borrows from British Indian food, invented by immigrants to the UK from India, which itself borrows from the original Subcontinent dishes. The Canadian incarnation of this - complete with the wonderful floury slippery roti skins, and the piping hot blend of spices and chicken inside - is unmissable. If you haven't made your way out to the West end of town for some of the ethnic delights - Indian, Caribbean and many more - along Queen St W, then you have yet to truly experience the breadth and deliciousness of the magnificent food choices in Canada's largest city. And if it existed in a world where the bloody Brits had never invaded and colonized India in the first place, then it would be "Another India." But we can't undo the heinous actions of our past. Unfortunately, we also seem unable and unwilling to learn from them.

The bindhi was fresh tasting and the goat was nicely spiced I asked for it to be mild. It was a good meal but the atmosphere was not controllable. They decided to repave the road and the whole building shook. Luckily this was finished before the supper crowd came. No accommodations for the sound so customer service -1 star. But the food is still good

The goat biryani was so spicy even at mild spice. Good, but super spicy for me that I couldn't eat much of it. Butter chicken was so classic, so comforting. Garlic naan paired perfectly with it. The biryani was huge. One could definitely be split between two people. With an addition of an appetizer, it still might've been more than enough.

The restaurant is quite small however, nice quaint and very clean. We ordered a number of dishes: Chicken 65, The Spinach Paneer, Lamb Korma and Butter Chicken. We also ordered sides of Rice and Naan. The Chicken 65 was an appetizer. It was a fried chicken fritter similar to a boneless chicken wing. It was delicious and had some kick. The best way to describe the dish would be small bites of chicken covered in a pakora batter. So instead of onion its chicken. The Spinach Paneer was great. It had good flavor and had great texture. It paired nicely with the naan. The Butter Chicken was nice and creamy. It also had a nice a nice hint of sweetness. It was very good. I enjoyed eating it with the basmati rice. The star of the show was the lamb korma. The best part was the texture of the lamb. It was not overly gamey, and it melted in your mouth. The only slight knock on the food was the Naan could have been a little better. It was a little pita like. It wasn't bad, just not what I am used to. The service was great. Our server checked up on us frequently. This has to be some of the best Indian food I've had in a while. This will now be my go-to Indian restaurant. I really can't wait to return.
