The entire Thind family demonstrates a true legacy of genuine five-star service in so many ways -…read morenot just in always tending to our needs for a very personable, professional dining experience in their restaurant, but by providing every option one may consider. From dine-in, buffets, and an extensive menu of delicious, freshly made choices, to takeout, delivery, or catering an event, they excel at it all. Beyond their business ventures, their generous charitable contributions to the community at large - not to mention graciously offering meals on various special occasions to those who truly cannot afford them - leave a positive impact on everyone who crosses their path. Speaking of catering, we were absolutely blown away by our recent experience with the Mehtab Indian Restaurant Catering Service. We ordered a large home buffet for an event at our Airbnb in Springbank, which is a good half-hour drive from Cochrane. We were amazed when Jag, the owner, personally delivered our order, arriving right on time. He didn't just drop off the food - he came in and provided the most excellent, professional service by fully setting up the entire buffet. His attention to detail and his dedication to driving all the way out to ensure everything was perfect were incredible. It made our event feel effortless and truly special. And the food... WOW! It was absolutely outstanding. Every single dish was a 10/10, and our guests couldn't stop raving about it. This is next-level customer service and quality. Thank you, Jag, and the entire Mehtab team, for making our gathering so perfect!

The absolute WORST experience eating Indian food in my life... we had to send our entrees back…read moretwice because they were over salted or with no salt at all. We had dahi puri and gol gappa, only to find out each puri had 3 chana and 1 small piece of potato, with absolutely zero flavor. The restaurant staff was ok to get the dishes remade, but came out watery... and it ruined the whole experience. One thing to comment is their naan were soft and tasty, hence the 1 star. The staff also charged us for the naan they clearly agreed to replace as the curry's were getting remade... Do not go to this place for Indian food in Canmore.

We ordered lamb korma, tandoori chicken, garlic naan, and cucumber salad…read more The korma gravy was nice; not too heavy. Some of the lamb was a little bit dry, but the ones that weren't were nice and tender. The tandoori chicken came with a cilantro chutney. There were 2 drumsticks, 1 thigh, and 1 breast piece. It came out sizzling hot on a hot stone plate. It had a nice grilled flavor. The garlic naan came with 3 pieces. The cucumber salad came with tomatoes, onions, and lettuce. This was a lot of food for 2 people. I thought the price was fair and I was happy with my meal.

I ordered the tandoori chicken, garlic naan, and kachumber salad…read more The tandoori chicken came out sizzling and the server provided me with a tong to pick up the pipping hot chicken. From the 2 legs, breast, and thigh pieces, the legs tasted the best. I like the green sauce the server brought for the chicken. One order of naan came with 3 pieces. It was soft with some black burned areas. The kachumber salad consisted the cucumbers, tomatoes, lettuce, and onion pieces. I dipped the pieces in green sauce that came with the tandoori chicken. There were lots of seating indoor and outdoor. The staff came frequently to refill my water. I was very satisfied with my meal. It was very authentic Indian cuisine and I highly recommend it.

Zyka Elevated Indian Restaurant is a must-visit gem hidden on the second floor in the heart of…read moredowntown Banff. The easiest way to find it is to look for the Zyka sign around Banff Ave--otherwise, you might end up on a bit of a maze-like journey through the mall. You can easily access it via the stairs or elevator. Inside, the decor is clean, modern, and warm. There are lots of tables in the restaurant, so this is a great choice if you have a large group (although you should make reservations to guarantee seating). If you are lucky enough to score a window table, you get front-row seats to incredible mountain views and great people-watching. Zyka offers a buffet at lunch alongside a large à la carte menu for lunch or dinner. The food was absolutely spectacular. Their butter chicken is easily one of the best I have ever had! The chicken is deeply marinated and served in a rich, thick sauce with a perfectly balanced blend of onion, tomato, yogurt, and masala. If you love a thick curry that clings perfectly to your rice and bread, this is it! The matar paneer was equally hearty and flavorful, boasting another beautifully thick sauce with just the right amount of a spicy kick. But the real showstopper? The garlic naan. Finding excellent naan is rare--it's usually too bland or too dry. Zyka's naan is fresh, delicious, and has the perfect chewy stretch. Our family of five loved the garlic naan so much that we actually purchased eight more orders to go! Pro-Tip for dairy-free/lactose-intolerant diners: You can ask the incredibly friendly staff to leave the butter off the garlic naan. Remarkably, even without the butter, Zyka's garlic naan was still soft, flavorful, and not dry at all. Highly recommended! I am super sad that it is difficult to find an Indian restaurant as good as Zyka in Los Angeles ... and yes, I have been to many Indian restaurants, including in Artesia (AKA "Little India").

ZYKA was delicious!…read more I was a little nervous trying Indian food in Banff especially when I saw I had to take stairs to get to the restaurant. You're literally transported into a booming restaurant with savory scents and smoking dishes! I was worried because the waiter didn't write anything down but everything came out exactly as we ordered. It was so exciting to see the dosas flying out of the kitchen. I've never tried a dosa before and I'm really glad I waited until coming here. We got a potato dosa which is a crepe shaped bread full of potato and dipping sauces. I would go back for this alone. Then going to all of there tikka!!! The plates came out smoking and all the meat was tender and packed with flavor! The last thing I'll note was the masala dishes!! THE ROG AND JOSH is a must! But if you have a hike tomorrow I would stick with the dosa or tikkas!

The vindaloo was not for me. I went home and added some cream to it and it tasted like butter chicken. That being said, the curry chicken was so god. The chicken is moist. The flavors are just perfection. Mom also loved the baighan Bartha. This one is a bit sweeter than other versions I have had but it is equally as good. I really liked it. We got medium spice and it wasn't too hot. The butter chicken was also delicious. They had appetizers with that thin crisp bread and the green mint and red tangy sauce. It was really good. Btw they give a lot of Naan. As in one order of naan is plenty for two people. Overall I really like this place and if I'm ever in Calgary would definitely be coming back!
