If you're here, have the buffet. The staff fill takeout orders from the buffet, so if you get the buffet, you're getting the same food anyway, just cheaper. Most of the dishes were decent & a few were good (butter chicken, mutton keema). Chicken curry was very thin though & one kebab was too salty (I have a high salt tolerance). At $27 for weekday dinner, this is good value, especially given the wide spread. You even get 5 desserts plus fruit & ice cream.

Still #1 Indian buffet in the GTA that is all day Let the competitors spam bad reviews. Come try this place out for yourself! Start with the chicken curry, a cold soda and naan bread!

The most delicious, fresh garlic naan
Joan T.

Hits the spot when you're craving some good, simple Indian food with a variety to choose from. We come here for lunch AYCE and I'm always excited to get the garlic naan. It's unlimited garlic naan made fresh! Everything is fresh. It's so good! I absolutely love to come here and turns out many of my coworkers do too! It's a good price for all the different dishes you can get. And the service here is amazing. They are always patrolling the restaurant to get the empty plates away, fill up your water, and refill your naan basket. Sometimes they offer slightly different dishes. I haven't really caught onto the pattern just yet, but it would help if there were some type of schedule or menu. Can't wait to come back for our next fill of deliciousness!

It was 11 am on a Tuesday morning and looking around for an Indian restaurant, craving for some meat curry. Two Indian restaurants in the vicinity were closed and will not open until 11.30am or 11.45am. So, by the time they open, we will not be able to order until after noon time. Came across India's Taste on Denison Street, which was already opened with a few guests already seated at their table. Good location and plenty of free parking. It is an Indian buffet and the waitress gave us a choice of A La Carte. We opted for buffet as there was a great selection of dishes, all freshly made and well presented. Goat curry was meaty and delicious. There were no cut-corners on the amount of meat, including chicken dishes. Some of the dishes, like the lentil soup, were mildly spicy, but not overly hot. Dessert like gulab jamun has a nice bite to it as it is often too soft to the point of disintegrating in the hot sugary syrup. Ras Malaye is my other favourite dessert. Dining room was spacious, excellent service and volume of background music at a level where you can keep a nice conversation going. Will definitely come back again.

Dessert from the lunch buffet
Andrea M.

The reason I can only give this place 2 stars was the level of service, and the way they were completely unaccommodating to our party of 3 adults and one infant in a stroller. We arrived at the tail end of the lunch rush on a Tuesday - it was coming up on 1:30 PM, and while there were a good number of diners, there were also many empty tables. The hostess tried to seat us next to an already-occupied table. As our stroller would have been an obstacle to those customers, we asked to sit elsewhere. We were shown to another table near the buffet, where the server asked us to park our stroller where it would be in the way of anyone trying to make their way to the buffet. We eventually sat at a table next to a wall, but because of the stroller, I could barely fit my seat at the table. We pulled the table away from the wall slightly, so that the corner of the table wouldn't spear me in the ribs every time I leaned forward to take a bite of my food. In a huff, our server quickly came to push the table back towards the wall without a word. A whole to-do was made about our party of 4 not being allowed to take up more space than a four-top. Meanwhile, the restaurant was quick to seat a lone customer at the four-top right next to us, despite there being plenty of empty tables around. The lunch buffet was actually quite good as far as lunch buffets go - lots of variety. I enjoyed the curry lamb and goat dishes. Plenty of options for both vegetarians and meat lovers. Fresh warm naan brought to your table. However, among the misses were the butter chicken and the vegetarian samosas (the dough was a little too thick compared to the amount of filling). Anyway, with all the seating hubbub, the whole experience turned out to be a hectic and uncomfortable lunch. I don't plan on coming back.

Garlic Naan
Shay S.

I've been going to India's taste for some time now and their garlic naan has always been my favourite, it's unlimited and the wait staff generally passes by with a hot batch every so often when your basket is looking a little low. I used to be a frequent customer at this restaurant a few years ago and I loved everything about it. I returned a few days ago and while the food was still good, it seems as though it's lost a bit of its authenticity. While I appreciate the restaurant most likely did this to appeal to a wider variety of customers, I really missed the spice and cultural authenticity when I went a few years ago.

Nice and warm naan
Mike R.

Great place for lunch if you love Indian food. Went on a Wednesday late lunch at 130pm and there were few people. Good choices definitely. Location is not bad, not too far away from the highway. Overall will go again for lunch buffet. Great space especially during pandemic.

Yummy Indian food! Pani puri - so good! I could eat like 10 of these! Crispy hollow shells filled with potato mixture and some sour, sweet liquid... never had anything like this. They also have a bunch of different pakoras. The fish wasn't the best so you can probably skip that. They also had these deep fried potato balls - they were really good! The sausages and meat patties were also delish. They also have some Western style appetizers - salads and pasta salads. Paneer curry is really good here and so is the classic butter chicken! For dessert, they have fruits and Indian desserts like gulab jamun. There is also an orange-coloured dessert... definitely get one of those, it's really good and almond-y. Also the fresh naan here is the best! Be sure to ask for several rounds of these! To drink they have lassi which is freshly made. The mango flavour is amazingggg! Btw, you'll be surprised how quickly you get full even after just 2 plates of food.

FOOD: Their buffet doesn't offer a large selection of Indian food but the quality is decent. You really get what you paid for. It used to be $13.99 for lunch buffet which was a really good deal. And their naan is superb and freshly served to you at your table! I come here occasionally for lunch during the weekdays and is usually packed. ENVIRONMENT: Don't be fool by the exterior of the restaurant. It doesn't have the most glamourous and attracting exterior but the interior is clean and big enough to accommodate larger groups. SERVICE: Attentive staffs. They do regular water refills and naan refills. It could be slow at times during peak hours but overall pretty good service.

What can I say but.....Awwww yeah!
Hin T.

Every time I eat Indian food I ask myself why don't I eat this every day? I love the flavour and it is so satisfying. Then after I overeat it, I ask myself, how do people eat this everyday? India's Taste really delivers if you are looking to scratch that spicy itch. For a buffet, the food is fresh, the service is attentive , and the place is clean. You will find a good variety of vegetarian and meat dishes plus there is a good salad section. The naan is served fresh as you ask for it. My only thing is the desserts. They are soooo sweet. I am not into sweets, and the dessert section here is crazy sweet. But their carrot dessert is amazing if you can handle the sweet.

Buffet with Mango Lassi
Elle G.

We really very much enjoyed this Markham Indian restaurant. We went for lunch on a Saturday, and there was a great selection. They had all the usual suspects. Such as: - Butter Chicken ( boneless) - Tandoori chicken - Goat Curry - Daal - Aloo Plus lots of different kinds of salads, rice, fish, lots of vegetarian choices, and they brought fresh man baked right on the tandoor. It was awesome. Loved the Naan bread. Service was nice and friendly and we ended up having Mango Lassi with it also Dessert was fresh fruit, ice pudding, ice cream, carrot pudding. and the cake balls in cardamom syrup. Food had a bit of bite to it but definitely suitable for western palates. It was pretty busy with families and couples alike.

I came here because of the many positive reviews on Yelp! The restaurant is tucked away in an industrial area, and doesn't look like much from outside, but the inside is actually quite modern and comfortable. I went for the lunch buffet, and was quite impressed with the food! There was a good variety of chicken, lamb, and veggie curries. Most of the meat was tender, although some of the lamb could have been more tender. The curries were slightly spicy, and had a good mix of spices (but taste could have been stronger). For dessert, they actually have ras malai! I also discovered galja halwa (with the warm food section), which is now one of my favourite indian desserts! There's also lots of fruit for dessert, and salad as well. There were no soups, so maybe they could add some to the selection. Service was really attentive; they bring you pieces of fresh naan when they see you are running low! They also top up water quite quickly. For about $15 for lunch, the variety and quality is great for what you get!

I had the pleasure of going here for a family dinner, and I'm really glad we chose this place to eat! Dum Pukht is beautiful decorated with a dark ambiance inside. Lots of seating available, would suggest making a reservation ahead of time to ensure you get seated immediately upon arrival as it can be quite busy. The staff were also super kind and explained all the dishes while also providing alternatives too! We ordered several items off the menu because there was a huge selection to choose from! We started with the Crispy Cheese Balls (9/10 Absolutely delicious and crispy), Tibetian Momo's (7/10 was a little too spicy for my liking), and the Chaat (6/10 on the sweeter end but still good). For the main dishes we ordered some Garlic Naan (10/10 probably one of the best naan's ever), Paneer Tikka Masala (9/10 creamy and delicious), Chicken Vindaloo (8/10 spicy and very flavourful) and lastly the Dum Vegetable Biryani (7/10 a lot of vegetables inside). Overall was such a pleasant experience, also their portion sizes are huge so you really don't need to order a lot if you are coming as a small group. I would highly recommend you come check out Dum Pukht in Markham! 9/10 Recommend!

These were little pockets of crispy wafers topped with chickpeas, diced potatoes and yogurt sauce. It came with 2 sauces to pour into the chat which were mint and tamarind sauce. Loved this! It was a flavour burst in your mouth! Butter Chicken 5/5 - Chicken breast marinated overnight with yogurt and spices. Loved the cream butter tomatoey sauce and paired perfectly with the garlic naan. Can't wait to have this again. Dum-Phukht Biryani 4/5 - This came beautifully presented and opened table side. Thought there was a lot of chicken in there which was nice! Rogan Josh 5/5 - This was hearty and delicious with the lamb. Slow simmered in a rich spiced gravy sauce. Definitely would get this again! Flavourful and spicy. Mixed grill 5/5 - Thought this was a nice mix of meats to share with the table. Came on a grilled platter. Overall, great dining experience and food was fantastic. Only complaints was the waiting time and the super dark interior. Definitely worth a try and will be back for more Indian eats!

All the food was well seasoned. There is a small dessert section. The rice dessert was delicious. The ice cream options looked like they needed to be changed.
