We'd been craving some Biryani after class, so we decided to just walk into the first spot we saw & luckily, Desi Tadka was right across the street. It's a small restaurant with a quirky little front step that immediately caught our attention.
We ordered a Lamb Biryani & a Chicken Biryani, plus some Vegetable Samosas to start while waiting for the main meal. Honestly, we went in hoping to relive the taste of the Biryani we used to have back when we were still in the UAE. & to be fair, it came pretty close! The flavor was rich & satisfying though a bit on the spicier side.
At first, I was really enjoying every bite, but halfway through, the heat started to catch up with me, & it turned into a water-bite-water routine. That said, I don't blame the restaurant it's the traditional level of spiciness. I probably should have asked them to tone it down, like we used to do back in the UAE, but since we were starving, we didn't think of it. (Lesson learned 😅).
Interestingly, another customer eating there mentioned,'Today is a little spicy, not like last time.' So maybe it was just one of those days!
As for the Vegetable Samosas with sauce its absolutely spot on. Crispy, flavorful, & nearly perfect.
The chicken tikka roll is very tasty! I tried the 1st time for dine-in but made it a habit of calling them for take-out so that I don't have to wait when calling!

Maybe it's because I was hungry, but the food seemed to take ages it arrive. But it was sorth the wait! We both had a chicken wrap & mango lassi; they were were delicious. & looking around the restaurant, I noted that everything looked great. I am from Victoria & sadly there isn't anything that matches the calibre of Desi's in my town, but on my next visit I'll be back, & willing to wait
This place is actually really good. I tried the pani puri & it was amazing. The butter chicken is really great as well. I'd definitely recommend this restaurant! 10/10. The owner is very welcoming & made sure we received great service.
Been here many times & had a great experience definitely would recommend trying chicken tikka with the naan aswell as the tikka roll if your on the go. Side note if your vegetarian i would really really recommend trying out the samosachaat as that this my fav meal to eat on the days im veg. Overall great experience with nice smiles.
The garlic naan is soooo good. Ate that naan with butter chicken & definitely hit the spot. What i love about this place is the amount drinks they have. They have so many options its hard to choose.
