That was the most disappointing part of dinner.

Staff were pleasant and helpful. Immediately seated in the late evening. Timely appetizers and well time meal. While we were outside, the ambience was quiet enough to talk and entire place is well appointed. We had the Mandahar Fish which is portioned well when selected with a rice side. The avocado hummus was the exceptional start and don't skip on the coconut naan (cough cough, not just a kid favorite)

The staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. We ordered so much food--honestly, I wish I had written it all down. The menu is perfect for sharing, so we got to try a little bit of everything. Highlights included a variety of rich, flavorful curries--both vegetarian (like the creamy paneer) and meat-based (the lamb and chicken curries were melt-in-your-mouth tender). The garlic naan was soft, buttery, and perfectly charred, and the biryani was fragrant and loaded with spices. As for heat levels, our group had a mix of preferences, so we tried levels 2 and 4. If you love spice and can handle the heat, don't hesitate to go for level 4 or even 5--it had a serious kick but wasn't overwhelming if you're used to spicy food. Level 2 was a great middle ground for those who wanted just a bit of warmth without too much intensity. Overall, an amazing experience with fantastic food, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommend for groups, spice enthusiasts, or anyone craving authentic, flavorful Indian cuisine!

It was decent, providing a mild and edible baseline, but nothing memorable. * **Kadhai Paneer:** Marketed as a house specialty, yet it completely missed the mark. The dish was a total mess featuring an overly rich, heavy-handed gravy that swallowed any authentic flavor, completely missing the signature crisp bell peppers that define the dish. * **Baingan Bharta:** Suffered from an identity crisis, containing far too many peas rather than focusing on the smoky roasted eggplant base. * **Naans:** Dense, rubbery, and a sorry excuse for traditional Indian flatbread. Save your appetite and skip this restaurant entirely.

Tasty Indian Food, But Beware Of Spiciness…read more My wife & I went here for lunch after a long drive down from Ucluelet. Here's what we ordered and how I'd rate each item on a scale of 1 - 10, with 10 being best: Tandoori Naan Butter (6): More greasy than buttery, and not very flavorful. Garlic Cilantro Naan (7): Subtle garlic flavor, but tasty. Gobhi Garlic (8): Recommended by the waiter. Very tasty, with a great texture, though I could've used a bit more garlic flavor. Chicken Tikka Masala (7): Good flavor, but not enough chicken. Also, despite asking for the mildest spiciness, it still made my scalp sweat. Butter Chicken (9): Delicious! Tasted exactly the way it was supposed to, with a rich, thick creamy tomato sauce. Highly recommend. I'm giving them 4 stars because I'm rounding up from what I think they deserve, which is 3 1/2 stars. Overall, their food was good, service was prompt & friendly, and their prices were very reasonable making them a good value.

I will not be returning and do not recommend the buffet.

What we ordered: Podi Masala Dosai: Our server was fantastic and steered us toward this perfect choice. It had just the right amount of heat and paired beautifully with the fresh coconut and tomato chutneys. Okra Masala, Basmati Rice, & Garlic Naan: The okra was delicious, and the basmati rice was cooked perfectly--never mushy or clumped, with each grain distinct and fluffy. As for the garlic naan, it was the best I've ever had! Tender yet crispy in all the right places. Restaurant food can often feel heavy, but this meal was light on oil, letting the authentic spices and loving preparation really shine. This wonderful little business deserves to be packed every night. Please go support this fabulous restaurant!

Great selection in the buffet of meats and veggie dishes. The butter chicken and muttar paneer were far beyond any Indian buffet quality that I've had previously, and are on par with a la carte dishes made at good Indian restaurants. And I'm from Vancouver where there's an abundance of good Indian restaurants. What really stole the show for us were the naan. Without even ordering, we were given perfect naan bread fresh out of the oven, piping hot, golden brown crispy and fluffy. If I had the stomach capacity, I'd be stuffing my face with it all day. Best of all, this bottomless naan is complimentary. Had a chance to chat with the owners too, a husband/wife duo. Truly kind and big-hearted people, going far out of their way to help community members in need. I won't go into details here but I'm glad they're part of the community and we'll be regulars for sure.
