Living in Northwest Calgary, you learn to keep your expectations low because most of the restaurants up here stink. Thankfully Taste of India did not need this "help"!
After a week of turkey dinner overload, I was ready for something totally different.....Indian food. Bring on the curry and the naan! After noticing a sign for Taste of India, I thought it would be the perfect time to try it. Their sign said take out or dine in so we stopped to get a menu. We were happy to see that they also have delivery (though there is a charge depending on distance...it was $5 for us).
There menu is quite extensive including a huge selection of Indian sweets and a Haka menu.
We decided to try Butter Chicken, Okra Masala, Garlic Chili Prawns (from the Haka menu), steamed rice & plain naan. The butter chicken was some of the best we've ever had. The sauce was excellent with nice spice. The Garlic Chili prawns was a kind of small serving & the prawns were deep fried (which is not mentioned in the menu) but overall the dish was very tasty. Spicy and complex it was one of my favorite dishes though I totally think they could do it without deep frying the shrimp. The okra masala was very good with small, young okra.
The only negatives with the meal were that the naan was cold on arrival and they forgot our raita. I called & they said they would give us our next order of raita free which is fine with us.
Overall this is a great addition to the delivery situation in our area. Yay!
