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. The paratha was absolutely delicious and one of my favourite parts of the meal. The service was fast, and the portions were generous. We had plenty of leftovers to take home, which is always a bonus. Overall, it was a decent family meal, and we'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.

Upon entering I was greeted by eager staff and Chef Ram himself. They seated me at a table and confirmed if I was there for the lunch buffet. The personable staff offered to bring drinks and ushered me decent buffet offerings were beyond expectations. The buffet consisted of both Vegetarian and Non-Vegetarian options including a salad bar, Achar (pickles), Dahi / Raita (yogurt / with cucumbers), Chutney, Veggie Samosa, Onion Bhaji, Vegetable Pakora, Fish Pakora, Tandoori Chicken, Butter Chicken, Paneer Tikka Masala, Dal Tadka, Mutton Curry, Chana Masala, Jeera Aloo, Basmati Rice, and Naan. While I was disappointed there was no Saag Paneer on the lunch buffet, there were plenty of other vegetable options available such as Vegetable Jalfrezi (Mixed vegetables cooked with onions, tomatoes, green peppers, and spices). For dessert there was Gulab Jamun, Kheer and fruit. Chef Ram has over 35 years of experience perfecting his secret recipes which delight customers daily. Glad to have visited such a fine establishment.

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.

Based on a recent visit at lunchtime on a weekend, they are more popular for takeout orders than for sit down dining. I ordered butter chicken and garlic naan. Both were very good.

I can't complain about the service. Our server greeted us at the door, showed us to our table and took our order in a timely fashion. He was able to answer our questions about the menu too.

The…read moredecor was very nice and clean, which set good expectations, but other aspects fell a bit short. Prices were on the high end, and the menu wasn't the easiest to navigate--especially if you're not familiar with Indian cuisine like me. For instance, I ordered the Aloo Parantha expecting it to be similar to samosas filling, but it turned out to be spicier than anticipated. Food wise, both the mango lassi and samosas were good, but very pricey for what it is. I didn't enjoy the paneer, but I believe that's more a personal preference than a flaw in preparation. The lamb roganjosh came with more meat than I expected, which was great, and the lamb itself was tender--but the curry felt like it was missing something flavor-wise. I've never had this dish elsewhere, but it just didn't seem to live up to the description from the menu. One thing that really bugged me: several of us ordered garlic naans and we expected them to be served separately since they were ordered separately. Instead, they combined multiple orders into two plates, which made it a bit inconvenient since the half of the orders were placed at the other end of the table. It's a minor thing, but with a restaurant positioned as fine cuisine, individual plating would have been better. In summary, it wasn't a bad meal, but it didn't really stand out either--and for the price, I expected a bit more.
