The food had no heat at all. Had we ate in the restaurant this would have easily been corrected but due to COVID-19 we ordered thru SkipTheDishes (who were awesome). We called the restaurant and after I told him the food was quite flavourful but has zero heat to it I was basically told too bad for us, we should have indicated spicy. There was no "spicy" option when we ordered and our general expectation ordering these specific dishes is that they have some level of heat so we didn't think

By far the best in town !

By far the best in Ottawa ! Take this from a true Indian food critic.,,Their Naan breads are a little on the expensive which you will realize once you order 10 for them but worth it as it is made in a real "tandoor". The rest of the menu is very standard items but flavorful.

Just had the lunch buffet. Pretty good food for $11 each. Overall tasty food, not too oily, excellent nan, fresh and very clean. I will go back. I noticed the server checking the cleanliness of the tongs that were dropped into some sauce. They were replaced with clean ones. Impressive for a buffet.

Not so bad.

Well, I doubted that the meat was halal and when I asked the server, she seemed to be lost. The table cloth was unchanged as well. The food was tasty, but they should make sure if the meat they use halal or not and let people know instead of hiding.

I've been to this restaurant many times, dine-in and take-out. Food is always delicious and servings are quite large (larger on take out than dine-in). Onion Bhajis are enormous and fantastic. Service is great as well, friendly and attentive.

I regret a lot that I did not earlier visited! Now I live in Aylmer, QC and have to drive 25 km and last year I lived around the corner. We have enjoyed lots of different dishes, enjoyed them all and will return as regular patrons! Its still a hidden gem in Ottawa, hope for the owner that will change. We give their business card to all our friends. Have a wonderful genuine India dinner there! Doris Aubin

Good food, especially seekh kebobs and tandoorie chicken. Lamb curry was excellent. However, the service sucks. These guys don't honour their own coupon from entertainment book. Coupon issue was escalated to manager, who gave us discount for least priced item in our bill, not on a regular dish as is mentioned on coupon. The service explains why there were only 5 people including us in a 60+ seats restaurant on a weekday evening. If you go, carefully check your bill.

I ordered take-out. Wanted chicken curry and lamb curry with hot sauce on the side. When we got home we found they had given us chicken curry and butter chicken, no hot sauce on the side. Both were good especially the chicken curry. Very saucey so more naan bread would have been good. Butter chicken had very little chicken and chicken curry had too much chicken. Go figure.
