While we were ordering up front, she kept walking away to do other stuff and then coming back. She did this about three times while we were triyng to order our food. We waited about 40 minutes for our food. Even for our masala chai, which they said was already pre-made, took forever to come even though we specified that we wanted it right away instead of at the end of the meal. We ordered dosas and a couple other appetizers, which were all alright in terms of taste. I'm not sure that I would come back, mostly due to the incredibly slow service.

You get such a variety of both South Indian and Hakka food. What a great combo! For south Asian cuisine, you get a lot of diverse food items for such good value.

Although only one of us was vegetarian, we all decided to try this place. That's the type of friendship we have. We support each other. I'm glad we decided to do this because the food was actually quite good. I personally didn't miss having meat. I don't think any of us did. The delicious flavours of the food had us all more than satisfied. The menu at this place is huge, with tons of choices and options. It took us a while to decide on what to order. There was some confusion when the food arrived because we couldn't remember what we ordered and we didn't know what the dishes are supposed to look like but we eventually got it all sorted out. Whether you're a vegetarian, or just want to try vegetarian dishes, make your way over to Saravanaa Bhavan. They have several locations in the GTA.

Interesting location to have an Indian restaurant as it's all Chinese restaurant in that area, but I digress. It's definitely a welcoming addition to the area. I got two lunch combos and split it with my friend. We got the Aloo Gobhi and Butter Chicken combos. Both came with rice, chick peas and a naan. I'm a huge fan of Indian cuisine because of all the spices and flavour they use and this is no exception. Both dishes were seasoned extremely well and tasted amazing. The butter chicken sauce was rich and creamy. The naan was fluffy and soft. The Aloo Gobhi was also great. It had a slight kick to it to bring out the flavour. I'll definitely be back.

I tried some of their classics and fusion dishes, which gave me a different perspective on Indian cuisine. Some of my favorites were the "Everything But the Bagel" Naan, Butter Chicken and Fish Tacos. They also have refreshing drinks, and I love the Mango and Pistacchio shake. Their butter chicken sauce was so popular that they sold them in big containers. They ran out when we visited. Inquire about their catering and delivery for all your event needs!

We had the appetizer platter, the tandoori platter, the masala dosa, beef rogan josh, and fish madras. You order rice and naan separately, so we ordered one rice and two naan for four people. I can't recommend the appetizer platter and tandoori platter enough!! You get so much for the price and get to try a bit of everything. The appetizer platter came loaded with various fried goodies. I loved the freshly made samosas. The tandoori platter was the highlight of the meal for me as each type of meat was cooked so well, full of their distinct flavors but still moist and tender. It came in a sizzling smoking hot to the table and we devoured it. The two curries were also delicious, but were overshadowed by my love of the tandoori.

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.
