With locations in Brampton on Ebenezer Road and in Scarborough, they are a highly popular restaurant for UberEats and SkipTheDishes delivery and takeout. There was a long lineup for UberEats and SkipTheDishes and other delivery services, along with regulars patiently waiting for their takeout orders for their families. Be patient and willing to wait up to 40 minutes for them to prepare your food during peak times. One person walked in and ordered the entire case full of ready made quick bites! Since it was late midday they were no longer serving Madras Thali (Chennai Food Platter) and their Bombay Thali (Mumbai Plate Meals). Those items are no longer served due to Covid? They were also out of the popular Madras Filter Coffee but that allowed us to choose other options. Really you can't go wrong with ordering anything on their wide ranging menu since it is all delicious! Everyone was ordering Dosa Varieties and I noticed quite a few dessert chocolate Dosa being ordered too. Kids love it! Next time I visit, I will order the Onion Chilli Oothapam or 7 Taste Oothapam. For this visit, I opted for a few plates to order and share with friends in order for us to share a variety of each of their favourites. * Coriander Masala Dosa * Extra Sambar, Chutney and Rasam* for an additional charge (it was so good we all ordered an extra Rasam for takeaway!) * Poori with Vegetable Kurma and Chana* * Idli Vada Plate came with 2 idli and 2 vada*. Plate Idli includes Sambar and Chutney * Indian Masala Tea Overall it was great selection to choose from and the food was very good. We each ordered extra bowl of Rasam for takeout! A bonus tip for Yelpers ordering takeout in the morning or the evening: MORNINGS From 8:30-11:30AM you can order Tiffin Items such as the Special Nilgiris Combo, Venoongal/Ghe Pongal, Rava Uppma or Rava Kichadi. EVENINGS From 5-8PM they offer Bajji Varieties like Plantain, Chilli, Onion or Potato Bajji.

Wish it was a little crispier for the flavor and chutneys were on Point Aloo tiki - 9.5/10 MUST GET. Don't let looks fool you. I wish it had more tiki but a very underrated choice. The chutney were very flavorful and not watered down at all Service could've been better but not the worst as it was a bit busy

The food was very mid…read more We got the Bhel Puri, the Chicken Tikka Masala, and the Goat Xacutti. I love indian food so I was excited to try the Goat Xacutti as it's something new but it ended up tasting exactly like the Chicken Tikka. And the Chicken Tikka didn't taste like what Chicken Tikka usually tastes like. They both tasted like and amalgamation of every curry all mixed together. It was flavorful, but there was no distinct flavor. The Bhel Puri was yummy, but they served us wayyyy too much for only a party of 2. The garlic naan was fine. I also ordered the sweet lassi, which was tasty. The seating was fine and they had a coat rack which was nice. It's open late (till 11pm) which is convenient and why I might come here again, but otherwise the food did not stand out to me at all.

Midway through the painfully slow setup process, the entire store started filling with the scent of something glorious. Rich spices, buttery warmth... it was the kind of smell that stops conversations. Everyone working there was Indian, and they were all clearly just trying to wrap up my account so they could dig into whatever just got delivered. I had to ask--where's that food from? "Kothur," they said, almost in unison. That was the recommendation, and it stuck with me. I walked by the place once. The exterior didn't scream "hidden gem." Thought about ordering delivery a few times but never followed through. Life, you know? Today, I finally went. From the outside, still nothing to write home about. But walk in, and it's a different story. Clean, cozy, and exactly the kind of no-fuss Indian spot you'd expect to stumble upon in the heart of a big city. The food? Solid. Spices landed right. Everything was warm, comforting, and satisfying. It's not trying to reinvent Indian cuisine--it's just doing it well. If you ever find yourself sniffing the air near a phone shop and wondering what that divine smell is--it might just be Kothur. TL;DR Not flashy. Surprisingly good. Smelled it before I tasted it. Worth it.

Our team loves grabbing a quick lunch from here, so we ordered catering for our office as well!…read more Today we had mostly vegetarian curries, veggie biryani and their Chicken Tikka Masala (similar to butter chicken but more flavor, more spice, more tomato-y/tart - not as creamy like butter chicken) - super tasty! Everyone enjoyed the meal. Our only take would be that the Fried Vegetable Bites/Balls were supposed to be delivered with the sauce separate on the side - this was not the case, and the tray was all soggy and mushed :( Hopefully next time we can get the bites crunchy! Paneer E Khaas - cottage cheese with a delicious savory spinach gravy! Mmm, that green sauce soooo good - YOU gotta try this one! Veggie Diwani Handi - a beautifully spiced curried assortment of cauliflower, green peas, potatoes, baby corn - and more! It's a definite favorite for the entire crowd! Vegetable Samosas - delivered crispy with a TRIO SAUCE DIP OTS! How awesome is that!? Buttered Naan - great chew, slightly charred, oh so buttery - don't you dare skip this one! You need them for all the sauceeeeee to dip! Speaking of sauce and needs - BIRYANI (rice) with vegetables! The way they craft this dish is so delicious- packed with flavours and spices. Be sure to give it a good mix before you serve! Chicken Tikka Masala - marinated & grilled - smothered in a creamy tomato based curry. All the trays were so carefully wrapped, packaged, and delivered - I AM TELLING YOU - NOTHING SPILLED (BOTH TIMES WE HAVE ORDERED - look at the pictures)! Teams are friendly and so attentive to your catering needs. Thank you for another delicious catering Khau Gully Team!

We asked for everything to be made mild so our 2 year old could enjoy it too, so some of the dishes were a little less flavourful than we're used to, but that was expected.

Overall, it was a decent family meal, and we'll definitely be back.

This was served with a delicious tomato sauce that tasted like the sauce used in Butter Chicken A+++ We had a small group and ordered a variety of dishes. I personally ordered a Meat thali which came with two meat options and one veg option. I opted for Butter Chicken and Tikka Masala. For my veg option I chose Chana Masala. Everything was flavorful and delicious. I tried a few bites of some of my friends dishes and I enjoyed everything I sampled. The ambiance in the restaurant is nice. It's small inside, but lovely. I parked a block away and walked there. There is a public parking lot beside the bank that you can park in though, which I discovered after. Staff were all friendly and my experience was overall a pleasant one. I'll definitely be back!

Happy! Got chaana masala only for takeout…read more My colleague gave me her home made roti so I wanted something Indian to go along with it! Scarborough has a lot of Indian food places to choose from. I picked here for their high reputation and the convenience. They have free parking space in front of them. Even during the rush hour, there's a space. I knew it as I drive by every day for my commute. Perfect for pick-up after a busy day at work! Their channa masala is great! Big portion, came with a cup of rice. Gravy is thick, hearty. The chickpeas are soft enough to easily mash on the tongue but still keep their shape and very very slight nutty crunchatvthe very core. Delicate. Perfect balance of savory Gravy and peas. They have spice level options. I chose medium plus. I liked it but thought the spice may be overpowering the natural taste of other players. Will try lower spice level next time. Will visit here more to try other dishes!!

The flavour of the Chana, okra, and one other vegetarian dish were all really good. Even the appetizers hit! I also didn't feel super bloated or oily after eating, so would definitely order again from here. My favourite was definitely Chana with the naan. Looking forward to ordering some meat dishes the next time I'm there.
