We went for dinner and were expecting just a name change and perhaps a menu refresh but we were pleasantly surprised. We had lamb vindaloo, palak paneer, and Rahra chicken, which we'd not had before. There was more lamb and paneer than I would have expected, and the rahra dish had both chicken thigh pieces and minced chicken in it. They were also good about no cilantro, which I always ask for but have 70-30 odds of it still appearing. We actually had so much with 3 dishes, we had to take it home, which NEVER happens at a normal Indian place. Service was lovely. It was a great experience and I would definitely go back.

There are 2 locations - this location can walk in to order any kind of samosa, while the other location will require preorder 1 day notice for samosas that are not the potato & peas original one. I went here on a Saturday 11am and there was a good amount of people picking up bulk orders, but since we wanted to try the quality of the samosas, we ordered by the piece. Each piece is around 1-2 CAD each which is very good price. We got 1 of each (potato & peas (original), garden mix vegetables, beef, chicken, paneer, and butter chicken). We got a small tamarind chutney sauce for 0.50CAD extra. Total was around 9 CAD which is quite a solid price for a meal for 1 person (snack for 2 people). I liked their potato & peas (original) the most and all their vegetarian options are solid. The meat options are more ground meat so I'm not that big of a fan, but they're still good. It's just the value lies in the vegetarian samosas. Next time I bring a cooler and order in bulk, to enjoy at the comfort of my home for multiple meals!

I tried all the variations and I much prefer the original which has potatoes and peas. The others are ok, those with chicken or beef contain minced meat which made eating a bit messy. The paneer samosa is pretty good too. I will order the potato samosa and paneer samosa in future. The price of the samosa is also decent, starting from $1.10 or so, much cheaper than in the Indian restaurants. I don't like that the sauce is not included and you have to pay extra for that. They also charge for paper bag. This is mostly a to go place, with a couple of chairs to wait for the food. Most people ordered online to pick up.

Thank goodness we were far away so travel time took up most of the time. The food was a hit with the crowd. The food prices are comparable to other restaurants; the dishes are decent with meat contents; the portions are not bad at all. Overall: we are happy with the take out and will likely come back to order again.

This restaurant absolutely blew us away - the vibe, the atmosphere...everything was electric! The combination of thoughtful service, stunning design, and unforgettable flavours makes this restaurant an easy five-star destination. A big kudos to the entire team at Haveli for their excellent service and making our evening so memorable. Each and every item right from starters to main course to the desserts was of top-notch quality and taste. It's clear that a lot of love and skill goes into the menu -- from the starters to dessert, each bite was a joy. The entire night was exceptional; from the food, to the service, everything was incredibly thoughtful and contributed to an unforgettable dining experience! The chef is straight up mind-boggling...insanely talented and honestly exactly what Surrey needs right now. The balance of spices is impeccable--rich, aromatic, and layered in a way that shows real mastery in the kitchen. The flavours were incredibly authentic, capturing the essence of traditional Indian cuisine perfectly. Each dish was crafted with precision, balancing spices and ingredients in ways that surprised and delighted us. Every plate was presented with care, and each bite reaffirmed just how much love and skill goes into the cooking here. The atmosphere was relaxed yet refined, filled with diners clearly enjoying themselves, a testament to how comfortable and inviting this restaurant is. From the very beginning we felt well taken care of. The staff deserve special praise. They are friendly, attentive and genuinely care about every guest's experience. Staff went above and beyond to provide a memorable experience. From the moment you walk in, you can't take your eyes off how beautifully designed and set up the restaurant is. The restaurant's interior was outstanding--modern, elegant, and inviting, which added to the overall ambiance. It creates a warm yet grand atmosphere that makes the whole dining experience feel special. From the presentation to the service, everything feels luxurious and unforgettable. We kicked things off with the Fish Pakora. As soon as it hit the table we just knew it was going to be good! Make sure to have a break, and have a KitKat shake! The Chilli Chicken brought that bold Indo-Chinese kick! But the Kadahi Chicken took centre stage! You can never go wrong with the Garlic Naan! And the Sizzling Brownie? It's rich, it's gooey, & served piping hot! But the real highlight? The live music! This place just tops it all! Good music, good food and a vibe that stays unmatched! I highly recommend Haveli for anyone looking for an elegant dining experience with incredible food and ambiance. In short: a standout restaurant that delivers on every level--food, service, and atmosphere. What more could you want? Honestly, words can't describe. Get yourself here now!

READ ITS INTERESTING REVIEW-:…read more I have been a loyal customer of this restaurant for over 4 years, and what happened today was completely unacceptable and extremely disappointing. One of the owners, Mr. Bishnu, knows me very well since I've been coming here regularly for years. A few months ago, when I tried to order a plate of noodles, I was told the wait time would be 40 minutes, so I cancelled the order. After about an hour, I called back thinking the wait might be shorter, but I was told it would now take 50 minutes. I still agreed to wait and picked up the order. At that time, I left a 1-star review because of the excessive wait time, but later I realized it might have been harsh and I deleted the review. However, what happened today completely changed my perception of this place. I went there to refer a friend for a job, because Mr. Bishnu himself had previously asked me to bring her. Instead of a normal conversation, he confronted me about that old review. During the conversation he said that if I "behave like this" I will not be welcomed at the restaurant anymore -- simply because I once left a review about slow service. The attitude was extremely egoistic and disrespectful. Even when I calmly tried to explain that this is not the way you treat a customer who has been supporting your business for years, his response was shocking. His exact words were essentially: "It's fine if you don't come. It won't make any difference to my restaurant. Even Mr Bishnu used a word " I don't care and F*ck about people" Imagine telling that to someone who has been coming here for 4 years, recommending the place to friends, and bringing new customers who also continued coming. This kind of arrogance toward loyal customers is unbelievable. A business should value feedback and long-time customers, not threaten them or dismiss them because of one honest review about service delays. After today's experience, I honestly feel disrespected and unwelcome, and I would strongly suggest other customers think twice before supporting a place where customer loyalty clearly means nothing. Mr Bishnu you lost a loyal customer to SPICE OF NEPAL & KATHMANDU BAR AND GRILLfor sure. If there are lot of other customers for you , there are lot of other restaurants around.

I checked the reviews of various Payal eateries the night before our trip, and Navraj sounded good. Clearly, we made the right choice. Everything about this experience was very positive. First, we received a quick and friendly welcome. We arrived before noon and had no trouble getting a booth. After perusing the extensive menu we decided on the lunch special which, on Thursday, happened to be two of our favourites: Palak Paneer and Butter Chicken. Specials are different every day. Soon the thalis arrived and we were amazed at the lovely portion size. Besides the two main dishes (we did not have to choose, we got them both), there was Basmati rice, a warm buttered naan, raw veggies, and raita. Also included was warm gulab jamun. All for $15! The Palak Paneer was creamy with lots of soft paneer cubes. This is my favourite Indian dish and it did not disappoint. Lovely! The Butter Chicken sauce was rich and full of flavour, with tender chunks of chicken. The food was absolutely delicious! It was fresh and only mildly spicy. I was surprised at that, because I doubt they cater much to western tastes. I expected the food to be much hotter than it was. We had told the server we prefer mild spice, but did not really expect that. However, it was perfect for us. Full of flavour, mild spice, so we could really taste the food and not fighting the heat. Very impressive! Neither of us could eat all the food in one sitting, and we loaded up the take-out containers the server offered. We took home rice, naan and a container each of the Palak Paneer and the Butter Chicken. Service was friendly and attentive. We felt very welcome. Granddaughter enjoyed watching the Bollywood music and dance routines on the large screen. We left talking about how much we enjoyed the food and the lovely experience overall. It was a long trip to get there but we felt it was worth it, apart from anything else we did at Payal Centre, just to have that wonderful meal. We highly recommend Navraj Sweets and Restaurant to anyone looking for delicious Indian food. We would definitely go again!
