The naans were quite chewy and were hard to tear apart. We let the staff know and they said they were made fresh and served us another batch as a compensation but still it tasted the same. The chicken curry was the only decent dish. The ambiance is just okay here, nothing fancy.

Look out for the new lunch menu this Family Day weekend. He also asked to make reservations as there is limited seating. I will definitely be returning !

Each week fresh banana leafs are shipped to Canada. During dinner, regular menu items are available for order! The staff was kind enough to accommodate my allergies. It was a South Indian meal made in heaven. Their sambar was heavenly! I have a feeling the secret ingredient is tears of angel. Coconut chutney is one of the freshest and best in the city! I am a big fan of their fluffy idly ($5.49). Plain dosa was crisp and flavourful ($6.99). Overall, I highly recommend Desi Mane for a satisfying meal.

For main I ordered poori and chicken curry which came with 3 pieces of poori. The poori was fried and risen to perfect and the chicken curry had the right amount of spices and so flavorful. My mom ordered the masala tea and masala dosa which she enjoyed. The masala dosa was a huge portion which was crispy and thin, it came with 2 chutney, sambar & a curry everything was so delicious according to my mom. For dessert we ordered the payasam which was plenty for 2 people, perfect amount of sweetness, vermicelli and cashews. Service was friendly, quick and attentive. The price was very reasonable gor the portion sizes and high quality food. Interior was also beautiful & spacious!

We got seated almost immediately and the servers were kind! Now when it comes to the food it was a bit lack lustre. I have definitely had better Indian food especially in Markham. The noodles were very plain, was way too spicy for my liking even though I asked for medium level. The Gopi 65 was very undercooked. Other than having a beautiful ambiance this place was not it for me with the food. 6/10 recommend!

The person was very friendly and spoke very clearly. We got the chicken tikka masala and it was amazing. There was lots of chicken and I loved all the slices of onion and peppers as well. We also got the dal tadka because we love lentils and it did not disappoint! Our favour dish was the lamb curry. It had so much flavour, the lamb was very tender, and it was the spiciest of all three dishes. We'll definitely be ordering that lamb curry again!

Ironically since this is a South Indian place, the butter chicken was the best curry (though the chicken pieces seemed to be yesterday's Tandoori chicken & were on the dry/tough/bony & non meaty side). There was one seafood item (fish curry). Nothing was labelled & they put desserts beside food items, so sweet rice porridge was beside 2 spicy soups & deep fried bananas were beside Tandoori chicken. This led to some surprising mouthfuls.

Dosa (served to the table) was thin & crispy but tasted a bit burnt & the fermented lentil taste was not as good as usual. Parotta was really good - thin, flaky & crispy. Even when old it was still pretty good.  The fried bananas were good with sweet bananas & thin batter. Fruit cocktail was just canned fruit in diluted mango puree.
