I loved their food always. Their biryani is nice. It taste different, not exactly as a biryani. But it taste good for some reason. The food is good. They have a lot of vegetarian dishes as well. Little bit pricy but it’s good.

Good tasting food, but there were some issues: We had ordered takeout but our rice was forgotten. Can't eat all that curry without rice so we had to drive all the way back to pick it up. Once we opened all the food I was sadly surprised at how small the portions were. For $140 I was expecting enough food to feed my family of four. It was barely enough. The platters had plenty of sauce but only a few morsels of chicken or beef in each dish.While the sauce was tasty, there wasn't enough meat to satisfy my sons. In summary, the food was flavourful, but portions were not substantial enough to justify the price. Anyone can make a mistake and forget something in an order, but it really affects the experience when you have to drive all the way back, and the food is all cold by the time you sit down to eat. Too bad, I was hoping to like this place.

I asked them which one was their best dish, and they recommended the Butter Chicken plate with naan bread and white rice. I was not disappointed at all! The food was incredibly tasty and flavorful, especially the Butter Chicken and its sauce. If you're looking for the best Butter Chicken in Ottawa, this is the restaurant you should go.

The server suggested things that we did not want, like suggesting to buy more things than we needed. More naan and more rice namely. It came off as trying to get as much money out of us as possible. The meat in our dishes were dry and not very good. Prices are a few dollars more than other similar indian places. Probably not coming back with other options in Ottawa.

This review is just a warning to be careful with the online ordering. We tried ordering pick up, we had to put in our credit card, however, only after ordering did we realize it was going to take an hour which was longer than we were willing to wait. I immediately looked on my texts and emails to see where I could quickly cancel the order, I found the number provided, which called directly to the restaurant however nobody in the restaurant seemed to know how to actually cancel the order and rather than try to figure it out they just kept saying “OK OK I’ll cancel your order” but when I would question if I would be charged, they would say “I don’t know how to cancel your order”the phone call basically ended with them saying they would cancel my order, but they did not know how -it did not get canceledI’ve never eaten inside the restaurant, only takeout, but the food is very good quality and delicious. Maybe the online ordering options are new and they need to figure out how it works for their customers.

Excellent food with many vegan and vegetarian options. We had eggplant curry and vegetable korma. Portions were generous and food arrived hot and deliciously spiced. Pleasing atmosphere with friendly staff. Highly recommend.

Had heard quite a bit about this restaurant so I decided to try it out with a friend.As we arrived , the restaurant was half empty on a Sunday midday. We decided to order 2 dishes to share and some nan.Decore is plein, with some basic carved wood panels on the sides. Table top acrylic protector is a nice touch for easy cleaning.All dishes starting minimum $19.95 and the potion is small!!! Not to mention it does not come with rice. Need to order $5 extra for a small portion. Nan $5-7 ……..spent over $68 before tips ……. For 2 main plates with rice and nan. Definitely not worth it cause the lamb curry was not even that flavourful …….Very disappointed. Over priced Indian food……. Will not be back here again.

The place is pricey meaning $10/$13 dollars more per plate for a specific dish but the portion size was good and taste was amazing. I would recommend at least try it once. Butter Chicken, Chicken Tikka Masala and Chicken Bhunna are the best!

Editing my review to add that we have ordered another time and the portions were a lot better. They were properly filled and had a sprinkle of cilantro- something our first order didn’t have.Excellent Indian restaurant with one of the best butter chickens in town. We have now tried the restaurant a handful of times and I noticed the portions are never consistent. Sometimes the container is filled as expected and other times it’s only half filled. Sometimes there an adequate amount of chicken, other times there’s only a couple of pieces. I tried Taj after seeing many influencers speak highly of the restaurant and while the food was good, unfortunately they miss the mark when it comes to portion sizes.I do hope the owners provide consistency as we plan on supporting this restaurant very often.
