    Our drinks took a while and came to the table in 3 trip each one with a 2-3 minute wait between. Our meal felt very rushed, the plates for the mains were being set while we were eating our appetizers, a little patience from the server while we were enjoying our food would have been appreciated.

    The food was delicious, the cocktails were fun, colorful, and perfectly crafted, and the ambiance was warm and inviting. The atmosphere strikes the perfect balance—romantic for a date night yet lively enough for a fun girls’ night out. The menu offers a great variety, with enough options to accommodate dietary restrictions, making it a welcoming spot for everyone. The service was nothing short of stellar—attentive and friendly without being overbearing. Highly recommend this spot for any occasion!

    Quite enjoyed my visit. The ambiance was cozy, the food was jaw droppingly delicious as well as uniquely presented and the waiters were rather attentive to patrons needs all through the night. Would definitely come again

    Always a delight to eat here! One of my favorite Indian restaurants in Toronto for the way they take classic flavors and showcase them in new and exciting ways. Their cottage cheese is the best I've had, so definitely get something which showcases it.

    Inside is very cute. Food was just ok - fried okra was extremely salty so couldn't eat too much of it. Chicken Tikka massala was mostly bell peppers, onion and sauce. Barely any chicken, especially for that price. Glad I tried it but wouldn't return

    The food was delicious - everyone at my table enjoyed it. The service was attentive, friendly, and humorous. The restaurant was full on a Thursday evening - good sign.

    Fantastic! Best mango lassi I’ve ever had and we loved the rose paneer. The ambiance was perfect- lighting was great and not too quiet or loud. I went with colleagues but it would be a great spot for a date or with friends. Menu is creative and changes regularly. We also enjoyed the friendly staff! Highly recommend!
