Sorry, we have no pictures. We started eating right away because the food looked so appetizing. We were NOT disappointed. We ordered, Pani Puri, Samosa Chaat, Classic Butter Chicken, Coconut Shrimp Malai, Naan & Gulab Jamun. The ingredients were fresh, everything was delicious. The waitress Sim was very helpful & knowledgeable. We will definitely be back. This is our new favorite spot for Indian food.
Delicieux restaurant, service agreable & arrangeant, terrasse agreable. Parfait !! Sim nous a servi avec beaucoup de gentillesse & la propriétaire Surbhi nous a proposé un délicieux melange de bouchées.

Fantastic service & food. We had the boozy mango lassi, it was terrific. We also had the maple butter chicken & the saag chicken, with rosemary naan & paratha & wow. So good. Sim, the waitress was incredibly helpful with the recommendations :)
Lovely food & service (shoutout to Sim!), the music was a touch loud for me but not overbearing. Prices super reasonable & cocktail was great. Plenty of veggie options.
Sim gave us an excellent service, very attentive to her clients. The food was great & the ambiance is lovely with a nice decor of plants & a terrasse outside.
Great experience here! I came for my birthday & the food was amazing. Service was great, our server Sim was helpful & even gave me a free dessert for my birthday. Would definitely come back.

It was a great experience. Loved the ambience & the food quality. Everything was freshly made. They have put their heart in this restaurant. Simran was a great host. & played some great music too :)
Staff is very friendly, & the food has been consistently amazing since last 1 year.
Must try their rasmalai tiramisu dessert. It is exceptionally delicious!
Special thanks to Simran & Sam, for being the best servers, every time!
Kudos to the owner on how effectively she manages her staff, & the restaurant. You are setting an example in the field of hospitality! I wish you more entrepreneurial success across Canada.
The paneer curry was fantastic, as was the thumbs up soda, mango lassi, & gulab jamun ♡! Sim, our server was also fantastic & so friendly! Would definitely recommend & would come again! 😁
The food was absolutely amazing!! I had the butter chicken & it was so creamy & delicious, not too spicy. Sim was our server & she was very kind & had great service. The atmosphere was also a chill vibe with beautiful plants. Would definitely come back again!
