The garlic naan is the best we recall ever having.

We will definitely be back whenever we are in the area. This place is a gem!

The seating is comfortable, the atmosphere is welcoming, and the service was attentive throughout our visit. Most of the dishes lean more toward fusion than traditional Indian cuisine, but the dosas were definitely the highlight of the menu. The dosa I ordered was perfectly prepared and generously stuffed, and I especially loved the sambar, which was flavorful and well balanced. They also have a good selection of drinks, making it a great spot to relax with friends or family while enjoying some Indian-inspired bites. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, and I would love to visit again.

I was not expecting this restaurant to be as big as it is. The space here is truly massive, and…read morewhile it was mostly empty when we came at around 2:30 - I can picture the hubbub of activity that would be present during peak dinner hours. This does seem to be a highly recommended place to eat Indian food in Surrey. I had the Non-Veg Thali, which isn't on the menu, but the waitress helpfully let us know about. It's very customizable - and I went with garlic naan, rice, two tandoori chicken pieces, lamb vindaloo, and shahi paneer - all in a single plate! Pretty much everything was excellent. I'm not even sure where to start. The garlic naan was fantastic. Soft, buttery, with just a slight hint of garlic and lightly charred on the outside. I could honestly eat this by itself and be satisfied. Garlic naan is a staple of what I order whenever eating Indian food, and this might be the best one I've had. The shahi paneer was also great; tomato-forward, creamy, and the paneer was super soft. The lamb vindaloo was a real standout. It was immensely flavorful - not lacking for spice at all - but you don't just taste capsaicin - you taste all the cumin, cardamom, and garam mixed in with the curry. But the lamb itself is the best part of the curry; it's so tender and juicy. The absolute peak, though, was the tandoori chicken. These were two large dark meat pieces, which were cooked to absolute perfection - retaining so much juice and fat. The skin was a perfect deep orange, seasoned with a ton more spices. It's like eating fried chicken but without the breading, but this was arguably even better. The masala fries were the only thing kind of a miss - as they lacked any masala. The price of the thali was only 23 CAD. That's a pretty insane deal for how much food you get - I was unable to finish everything on my plate despite being very hungry. Honestly two people could share this and be satisfied. When you consider how much sharing and new orders for bread, rice, and curries goes on at your typical Indian restaurant, this is crazy good value. Overall, I would classify this as the best Indian food I've had outside of Asia. 9.5/10

The only thing I will say to add to my above review is that you need to beware of the heat. I get…read morethe sense that this restaurant caters to real Indians and it's really spice. I mean mild was really spicey. I can't imagine what hot must be like. In the 60s when we got the first Indian restaurants they didn't know how to make it mild and you would really burn your mouth. It reminds me of those days. I used to love it in those days but as I careen towards 70 I can't take the heat any more. Still, this is the best Indian food - on a par with the amazing Vij's and Swad, our new North Van go to. It was good in North Vancouver in it's divey little location, it is fabulous now in its glitzy new store. So many different and interesting spices. Bravo Vaades or whatever you're called now. Who came up with India's Most Wanted anyway? Sounds like a psychokiller. Qu'est-ce que c'est. Must be referring to what you get when you ask for it extra spicey.

This time I ordered the salad, it was literally a container of mush, swimming in dressing topped with bottom of the bag broken cheese Doritos. (I actually called them to see if they actually served Doritos on their salads and yup) The salad says "comes with fried tortillas chips" I keep trying to give these guys a chance as I know it's considered a cheap place to order plus covid and all but for three people it still cost me nearly $70! Definitely the last time we will be ordering from here. I'm so not a picky person with almost anything but this I dumped in my green waste bin.
