I ordered fresh naans over the phone for an aftari. I picked up my order which was in a bag, wrapped in aluminum foil. I didnt not check it before leaving the store. Upon arriving at home, I opened the package and found that the naans were old and stiff. They were not edible. Totally disappointed by this experience. Please check your orders before leaving the store. I was a big fan of their food but this is the second time I found their food sub par the quality at the Pickering location. read more

We bought take out from there on Sunday evening. It was the veal kerahi and chicken drumsticks. The food was stale . A few hours after eating it , my husband and I became very sick with food poisoning . It's now Tuesday night and I am still sick , almost to the point of dehydration. It was the first time we ever bought food from silverspoon in Pickering. We will never return there and we urge anyone who is considering buying from there to think twice . Thankfully we did not feed any of that food to our kids . I looked at a few reviews and we're definitely not the first . Apparently 7 years ago their kitchen was shut down due to an infestation issue and unhygienic reasons . I wish I had read reviews before . read more

WARNING TO THE PUBLIC !! PLEASE DO NOT DO ON THE SPOT REVIEW FOR 10% OFF. I WAS JUST HANDED STALE OLD FOOD BY THIS ESTABLISHMENT. ALL POSITIVE REVIEWS YOU SEE HERE ARE WRITTEN BY CUSTOMERS WHO GOT 10% OFF ON THE SPOT AND ALL REVIEWS ARE DONE WITHIN MINUTES. CHECK TO SEE IF I AM RIGHT OR NOT. PROOF ATTACHED. PLEASE SPEAK UP IF YOUR FOOD IS BAD. NO NEED TO SUPPORT A NEIGHBORHOOD ESTABLISHMENT IF THEY DONT CARE ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMERS . Disgusting experience. This is the second time in a month they served me stale food from previous day. Last month, the Biriyani was stinking when I came home and opened it (to be honest) and when I called and complained they asked me to bring it back and refunded me. No apologies. Today, I bought chicken samosas, angara chicken, chicken biriyani and Butter chicken. All items were stale old food. I've been a customer for more than 8 yrs and you just pissed me off again. Wasted $30.48 for nothing. I have reported you to Durham region Health department. Word of advice you jack a$$es, if you can't serve it to your MOTHER, don't serve it to the public !! Please stay away from this hell hole. read more

I've been here many times, and had varied experiences, but overall, I am a fan of Silver Spoon. Even though they have expanded to another location in Scarborough, so that there are now two Silver Spoons, the Pickering location has managed to maintain consistent quality, although it can vary on days. Well, what restaurant doesn't have that problem? You might be suddenly short-staffed (someone down with the flu), or perhaps one of your deliveries didn't make it on time? It is good food. I prefer the Pakistani cuisine: Nihari, Haleem (not always available) and several of the biryanis. They are now offering Sindhi Biryani on weekends, and I'm so pleased! The only way that I could get that in the past was to make it myself using a packaged spice blend. If you want to get Naan, I recommend the Butter Naan. Although it costs a bit more, the butter enhancements really take the Naan to the next level of browning and savoury tastes. Ok, things sit under the heat lamp, but they do not seem to suffer that much (particularly something like Nihari, which is a stew-type dish that can withstand the warming table. Everything has always tasted fresh when I have ordered it. I find that the samosas are fairly standard, but there are other appetizers which are more exciting. For people who like the dark meat of the chicken, Lollypop Chicken is great and consistently good. I also enjoy Shami Kabab. If you like fish, don't skip the Fingerfish, which is consistently tasty. Whenever I have been there, which is perhaps once a month or two, for the past five years, the portions have been generous. I am certainly a fan, and the Silver Spoon fills an important niche in the local, Pickering community as a convenient place to pick up some Halal take-away of decent quality. read more

I have gotten sick from eating here. In addition, their curried based food is extremely salty.

Sorry to say it was the worse food ever, even though it was the first day of Ramadan. They ruined ally aftari.

Don't ever eat from here. Their food made my friend's whole family sick with food poisoning. They don't cook their food properly. Stay away. read more

Bought 3 Tandoori Chicken legs. Each priced at $5. Can't believe how stale it is. Hope we don't suffer from food poisoning. How is a helpless customer supposed to know if the chicken is fresh from across the counter. That too Tandoori chicken is supposed to be a fast moving item. Shame on businesses which sell stale food at premium prices! read more

Oh, Silver Spoon. I've tried to love you. I've given you so many chances. But this just isn't working out anymore. To start: the food isn't exactly terrible. It's just...not very good. I've tried almost every meat dish, the chana masala, samosas, biriyanis, etc. Indian take-out is hardly known for its healthiness, but when you order a veal karahi and get two sad chunks of meat floating in half a container in oil, it's a little disheartening. Add to that the fact that food is often sitting under a heat lamp for God knows how long... On the upside: the chicken biriyani is good bang for your buck - especially during the week when it's on special. You get a fairly flavourful container packed with rice and meat. It's ready to go, so you rarely have to wait more than a few minutes for your order. There was that one time they ran out of chicken biriyani (which is understandable when it's on special) but then offered me a "regular biriyani" (read: JUST rice) for the same price. Ummm, say what? I do love their beef samosas - it's just to bad that they NEVER HAVE ANY. Seriously, I have been here early in the evening, at random times during the week, and they have loads of sad looking veggie samosas, but no beef. I feel like the owners need to do a serious evaluation of what works and doesn't work. If you notice you're always selling out of a certain item (and NOT another), doesn't it make sense to up that portion while downsizing another? Who knows. My biggest gripe was the chana masala incident. The last time I went in, I ordered a chana masala (which I'm apathetic about, but my husband likes). The girl at the counter kind of made a face and said, "Oh...no. You don't want that." I was confused. There was a whole tray of it there, brimming with chick-pea goodness. "It's not...good today." What? What does that mean? Is the taste just 'off' or had it spoiled? In either event, why is there a full tray of "not good" chana masala here for customers to look at (and possible walk out the door with)? I stared at the tray, and she motioned at it again, "I was just going to remove it from here anyway." But, um, you didn't. And I was the only person in the store. From the wide glass window, before I even stepped in, I could see that there was no one else even there. She hadn't even come over until I'd been standing there for a few minutes. It really bothers me that I still really don't know what was so wrong with an entire tray of food that it would warrant being thrown out - and why it HADN'T been thrown out immediately if it really couldn't be saved. It was clear from the crispiness on the top (you know, that kind of layer of 'skin' that develops?) that it had been sitting for a while. Ultimately, I'm really quite relieved the staff person told me before I bought it, took it home and got diarrhea or something (this would be a much harsher review if that had happened...) And I guess that says something positive about the customer service (sorta...) As more and more Indian food places - both takeout and dine-in - emerge in the region, store owners need to realize that customers are going to eventually become more discerning. I really wanted this place to be a favorite - after all, it's very convenient for me - but, sorry, Silver Spoon, you just don't make the cut. read more

I've really tried to like this place but it disappoints me more and more each time I visit. At first, the portions were generous and the food was delicious. Today was the last time I'll be visiting, though. It was the third time I was given three small bits of butter chicken in a combo when previous visits I was given two heaping scoops. When my husband and I pointed it out to the server and asked for an actual serving, she spooned three more pieces in but then disappeared into the back with the container. She reemerged a minute or so later and told us she had to check if it was ok. I get it if we were asking for a huge amount but we were not. Just the same amount given to us when asking for the vegetable curry. The thing that bugs me the most is that I have no clue what actually happened to my container when it was taken out of my sight. Won't be returning. read more

***I was first to review this place. I gave it 5 stars and below review remains. I do feel it has fallen off big time. I have given you so many chances, your staff is very nice. My last straw was the cockroach on the fridge. I called the guy out from the back to show the cockroach. It was about mid adult size, with them wirey attennas. It was crawling around, and i pictured it being baked into my shami kabab I just ordered. The food is on warmers. It is either doused in oil to not get dry... Or it is Dry. I have a sense of humour, and i literally have to never go back there ever again after posting this. Otherwise I will get curry cockroach to go! Fail!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

I like the food generally speaking and the portions are generous and value is great. However, the kormas and karahis are way too salty. Please use less salt. Our blood pressure always increases after eating this food and sometimes its almost impossible to eat because of the salt level. Please please use less salt and even try using a healthier salt like himalayan. I'd really love to continue eating here but can't handle the salt level. read more

This place is ideal for days, you simply want to take out good, fast, and already made food. They have a wide variety of Indian dishes consisting of chicken, beef, goat, fish and vegetarian. I especially like their Biryani (chicken and rice) special. Its delicious food at a good price. The food is laid out like a buffet for you to see, and you simply ask the server for the dishes you want. Personally I like taking out the meat dishes from here and eating with rice or rotis that I already have at home. My favourite dishes are Achari chicken, the goat, the fish pakoras and the biryani. The place is well maintained and clean making it more appealing. read more

Great food. Pretty much all dishes are great. Depending on who serves you, you may get more or less pieces of meat in your Biryani - but regardless it will taste good. May be on the oilier side... Better than Biryani is the veal pulao that is available only on weekends. I continue to takeout from this place regularly.. read more

Silver Spoon location food is really bad,rice and Kebab, the worst. The just put chili paper in Kebab to make the bad smell away from it. Food is really bad, all curry are left over. Save your money don't spend even $1 in this location. Sliver spoon food is really bad. read more

I know I should have written this review long back but as they say 'Better late than never'. We had several unpleasant incidents with this takeout place that now we have placed this place in our personal 'Blacklist' list. So here is our latest ordeal: Sept 08 2018: We called this place around 8:25PM and asked for lamb biryani. Were told that its over and instead we asked the guy to keep 4 chicken biryanis on hold and told him that we'll be there in 30 to 45 mins as we had to come all the way from Oshawa to Pickering. We reached there around 9 PM and were astonished to hear that there is no biryani. The lady cleaning the counters went in to the kitchen and came out with some rude guy who instead of being apologetic seems to come on to defensive and blamed us instead of not being clear on phone. I don't know how else could we have been more clear than to tell him "to keep 4 chicken biryani's for us" and gave him my name for him to hold these. Well this was not the first such incident with them, the same thing happened to us TWICE in 2017!!!! Thats why i mentioned that we should have written this review long back. We had boycotted this place for around 6 to 9 months then but then again there are very few South Asian takeout places in Durham Region so had to give in but not this time. As I said this place is now blacklisted and I have communicated the same in all my firend/family groups. The worst part was the rude behavior and being un-apologetic about their behavior which really pissed me off. NO MORE SILVERSPOON PICKERING!!!!!!!!! Read this review as -1 stars read more

Came here a few days ago and they were closed. The health department had stopped by a closed them down. They had a sign up stating " kitchen maintenance." What was worrying was that the sign put up by the health department stated the closure was due to insects and vermin. Won't be coming here anymore. I've added a picture of the sign to the gallery. read more

It is worst restaurant I've ever been. Complaining about these restaurants don't make any sense because over here in desi restaurants there are desi inspectors. So always pass the quality assurance. Food over at silver spoon is rotten stale n filthy. Sorry to say I can't rate this restaurant n would advise no one to go there. I had to give at least one star otherwise the continue button will not work. But I rate it zero. read more

We were initially introduced to the food from Silver Spoon from a group lunch event at work. We have been regulars ever since. It is a takeout restaurant with a great selection of hot foods from their display window. So no waiting. Everything is fresh and has an authentic home made flavour. The rice is long grain and light. The chicken pieces are tasty. The sauces are rich and tasty. We have always found the staff friendly and helpful and willing to explain the various dishes. When you get into your car with your food, the smells are so delicious you cannot be sure you can get home without trying some. Highly recommended. read more

They do not have lots of crowd and it taste is different than other locations. I would not say the food is completely bad but certainly not the best. Their biryani, the holy grail of southeast Asian food, is just so spicy and sometimes taste raw, like something is missing. I would suggest this to masses, try before you buy. read more

The food is alright, not that great. Chicken briyani is very dry. Just went there once.

Don't bother ordering ahead you will always spend a good 15-20min waiting for your food.

I was on their website and they had a 10% off coupon when you pay cash if you show it on your smartphone. So I went in placed my order and went to pay told her I had the coupon and then she told me they don't honour that there it's only for the Scarbouough location I was like it doesn't say that and she was still like sorry no I was not happy and she said she would go talk to her manager I could hear them loud talking about it in another language then she comes back out and was like ok they will do it. I pay and then when I look at my receipt after all that she still did not give me the discount. I had to wait while they calculated it then gave me my money back. There are wayyyyy too many places to get take out to deal with bad customer service. I will not be back read more

The food is ok but I hate going to this place because of the workers their attitude is horrible and when ever you ask them for salad or sauce they show attitude. One time I bought 90$ worth of food in take-out and I asked for the big sauce container and the worker said "Oh that cost 2$". I said" Im buying 90$ of food". She said "Even if you bought 500$ worth of food we would not give you" . I hate the workers. read more
