The naan was fluffy and hot, and the different dishes and sauces were delicious. The vegetarian option came with a chickpea dish and a cabbage+pea dish, both were pleasantly spicey. The meat dishes were a sweetened butter chicken and a stewed goat. I really enjoyed our meal here and will definitely return again for their lunch. Cannot speak for their dinner serving sizes and prices, which I find are typically less "worth it" in most Indian restaurants. Owners were friendly, would recommend if you're nearby and craving Indian food.

Where do I even begin?! Yes I give a lot of 5 star reviews but I'd give this place more than 5 if I…read morecould!!!!! The first time I came I ordered the Chana masala with basmati rice, the combination of spices they used in the dish was magic in my mouth! For our table of three we shared two appetizers - the vegetable pakora and onion bhajee which were deep fried and delicious. I could not wait to come back! On my second visit, I ordered the bharta and my boyfriend ordered the chicken chettined. We shared an order of basmati rice and their fluffy naan bread. Bharta is an eggplant dish mixed with herbs and tomatoes, I am a big fan of eggplants and this is the best preparation I've ever had of this magnificent vegetable (or fruit?...) I honestly cannot rave enough about this place. If you want a trip to flavor town, hit up Sahar's Kitchen!

The butter chicken was sickly sweet, the nan burnt and not good at all. The lamb vindaloo was not at all spicy. Poor buffet choices. I don't see this place lasting long with such poor food.

man, i love alamin. it's super unassuming and not the most visually stunning restaurant ever, but…read morethey cook up some damn good food. friendly staff. the charcoal-grilled pomfret is stellar. the fish is cooked perfectly with a lot of that grill flavour coming through, topped with garlic and herb-spice sauces, and served atop a lot of lightly-fried basmati rice. at $16, this dish is not budget-friendly, but i do recommend it. a lot of middle eastern restaurants will season their chicken shawarma a lot more than alamin does, but alamin's is still delicious and has a really nice clean flavour to it. they use good quality chicken, and it's cooked to a tender texture. their falafel is unique with some kind of hot sauce added to the fava/chick pea mixture. extremely crispy, almost too much. i like my falafel with more prominent herb and spice flavours, but this one is still worth trying. alamin is definitely a must-try for fans of mediterranean and middle eastern cuisines. just don't expect too much from the decor

Absolutely terrible. I brought my entire family and all of our dishes were bad and completely…read moreunauthentic: - chicken shawarma: the meat was terrible - biryani: more like rice with some tomatoes in it I should have known that a place that tried to cook everything would do nothing well
