Le dahl etait completement liquide sans texture, donc on ne voyait ni sentait pas les lentilles. Les sauces & le sambar etaient correctes mais au gout ca laisse a desirer. Il y a de meilleures options. Le idly avait bonne texture mais trop salee.

I am a regular customer at thanjai restaurant near Plamondon metro from last 2 years. & I order mango lassi as take away every week, today even after giving instructions & requested multiple times to tape the mango lassi as it's take away, the person who was packing didn't tape it properly & gave me open mango lassi & lied saying he taped. There were other valuables I kept with that box & I almost ruined $100 worth my stuff because of that guy. He is the with specs in the restaurant. Very bad experience for the first time & might not want to visit again.

Great indian restaurant in CDN. Would recommend the dosa.
Staff is nice, but they got my order wrong on two consecutive visits, then forgot to remove them from the bill.
Other than that great food.
