| - I always enjoy visiting this simple but fabulous restaurant, and very much enjoy the home-cooked-style food here. Even though it may not be completely authentic Indian/Thai, it is certainly 100% tasty. I have visited here at least 5 times, and have had the soup of the day (lentil/dahl), which was fantastic, as well as the channa masala (chickpea curry), dahl (lentil curry), and vegetable pud thai. I love the atmosphere here - it's quiet and intimate. Don't be intimidated in the least by the low budget decor (although inside of restaurant is newly renovated, well-maintained, and super clean) and the outside of the restaurant, which looks unappealing - stairs down to a half-basement (the decor is the only reason I gave the review one less star). You will almost certainly be impressed, once you get into the restaurant, at how the food here is better quality, healthier, and a lot cheaper than the other restaurants on Elm (near Yonge Street, only a block away). The staff here are always lovely. While you might not take a date here if you want to impress them with a super fancy expensive gourmet restaurant, it's a perfect spot for a couple who want to simply enjoy a delicious meal and some wine together in a quiet soothing spot, (in the centre of but still protected) away from the hectic bustle of downtown.
