I gave this place a shot since it was open and looked like a nice variety of Indian food which was…read moremaking me drool while looking through the window. I asked for one of each of some of the deep fried goodies, including a few samosas, along with the chicken rice deal, as well as one of their stuffed naan which looked amazing, and topped it off with a few chutneys and a pop. My order came to $25 which seemed decent, although when I looked in the bag when I got home, the pop was missing, oh well not good for me anyway. Check out the pics. On the lid side of the container sat the stuffed naan, I think it had egg inside he said? Anyway, I found it had a neat chewy texture, but maybe since it was cold it wasn't that appetizing and didn't have much flavour. I like the fried rolls, one chicken and one goat, they were good and easily dipped into the chutneys, of which the spicy mint was a standout and I loved that! The samosas were not to my liking as they were too small. The ratio of wrap to contents was about 50/50 and since the wrap was by now kinda dry and hard, they were not something you'd go gaga over like fresh decent size ones like from A1 or home made. The rice dish was ok, but where was the chicken? It was mainly rice, some eggplant, with only one piece of bone-in chicken that had me digging furiously for more as it was good and I wanted a second bite, but no, I guess it made off with the can of Coke, oh well.

We recently moved to the Ajax neighborhood and came across this highly-rated Indian restaurant--and…read moreit didn't disappoint! We tried the popular Chole Bhatura and the Veg Thali, where I got to choose two curries from the entire menu, plus a sweet dish at the end. The flavors were fantastic, and everything was light on the stomach. We especially enjoyed the pickles they had on each table. Service was quick, and the staff was courteous, even letting us know in advance what wasn't available. They also served onions with the Chole Bhatura, which was a nice bonus! We loved the service, ambiance, and food. Highly recommend both dining in and takeout--one of the best Indian cuisines I've had in Toronto so far!

You like that stringy texture? This place does it and does it extremely well. My haleem connoisseurs....You know what I'm talking about!! Chicken Biryani - delicious! So many layers and flavours that merge into a scrumptious dish. Comes with a leg and a thigh piece and a mountain of fragrant rice. Irani Chai - frothy and hot. Exactly how you get it in Hyderabad, India. The owner who cashed us out is super friendly and professional. Their Customer service is great - I find south asian restaurants are severely lacking in how to converse with customers but not here! He actually had a full conversation with me (with masks on, ofc). I've added this to my regular rotation of restaurant to order from. Price point is perfect! $6.99 biryani is so pocket friendly. Can't wait to try the whole menu!! I also can't wait for when we can have people over because I'm 1000% going to get catering from here. COVID: when we entered, staff already had a mask on which was extremely satisfying.

I highly suggest just calling them to order instead.

I would give this place zero stars if I could. I ordered the chicken tikka masala, and what I…read morereceived was absolutely disgusting -- the chicken was clearly spoiled, black in color, and completely tasteless. Serving food that has gone bad is not only unprofessional, it's dangerous to customers' health. When I called to complain, they casually offered to "replace" the dish as if that makes it acceptable to serve rotten food in the first place. I asked for a refund because there's no way I'd trust them to send me another item, but they flat out refused and insisted I pick something else off their menu. Why would I want anything else from a restaurant that already proved they don't care about food safety? I will be filing a complaint with the food safety authorities to ensure this doesn't happen to anyone else. If you value your health and money, stay far away.

I remember the delicious flavours, spices and of course freshness of the food! One of my most favourite memories, and something that sets apart their Biryani was their use of raisins in the biriyani Let me first say that this place is absolutely delicious! The spices, the flavours, the lack of oil was all on point, and reminded me of my time in Hyderabad...The only thing that was missing was the raisins! I ordered the chicken biriyani lunch combo which came with aloo tiki, AMAZING raitha, a peanuty salan, and rice pudding to finish.. all felt $9.99! That's a price that can't be beat! I wanted to give this place a 4.5/5 bc of the lack of raisins, but I'm left feeling satisfied and generous. I'll definitely be back to try the other biriyani and thali combos!!

We ordered paya soup and Gongura chicken, and both dishes were cooked to perfection. The meat was melting off the bone, few places manage to get it so good. Also, one of the very few places that serve paya. We also ordered a Baghara baingan and naan, the gravy was mouth watering. This is the kind of place where your stomach is full, but you still want to keep eating more. The people who work at the establishment are really sweet and friendly. Some of the space was under repairs but otherwise it is a nice and bright interior. The plates (paper) and cutlery (plastic) are sub-par, maybe the restaurant could do something about that for dining in customers. Will definitely return some time .

So we decided to order from here via Uber Eats. We ordered Mutton Lucknowi Biryani, paneer butter masala, garlic and butter naan. Normally we order paneer butter masala as it's a milder gravy and our 3 year old daughter is able to eat it with naan. She loves butter naan. However this was a little on the spicy end, so she didn't eat it. It was also a little runny gravy as compared to other restaurants, however it's was flavourful. It went good with both butter and garlic naans. The highlight of the meal was Biryani. It was moist, flavourful, had good amount of meat. I loved it and I think this is the Best Biryani I have had in Canada. Overall good meal. Hopefully they maintain their quality. Will surely order again from here and will recommend to friends and family.
