| - Have been wanting to go here ever since the first time I saw it, as it's open patio made it unique to the rest of the other indian restaurants in Mississauga.
I made a reservation but was not needed as there were quite a few available tables, which did eventually fill up around half an hour later.
I love ordering a thali when available, however their thali's are different since you can't choose the curries and so it's basically a chefs choice concept. So my brother got the vegetarian thali and a mango lassi while I decided to not risk it and opted for the half tandoori chicken and a roti.
I immediately noticed that this restaurant is quite pricey compared to the other indian restaurants I have been to, such as Bombay Bhel and Gurus, whereby a thali there would usually cost around $13 but here is was $16. The mango lassi was $5, which I considered pretty pricey too.
My only complain on the service was that because we were sitting at the patio they did not notice our empty glasses and failed to refill them until asked.
The food arrived after not too long. My chicken came in a sizzling hot plate and was quite delicious, especially with the tamarind and yogurt sauces they provided for the table.
The thali came with around 4 curries, rice, naan, a mini samosa, and a onion fritter. This thali also differed in that it did not come with a dessert.
According to my brother this thali was made more for those who cannot handle the authentic and traditional heavily spiced indian meal, and more for those that just want that slight indian food taste. This wasn't a bad thing, it just means that for an authentic spicy indian meal this may not be the best choice.
The ambiance totally amped up the experience and I would definitely go again, but not as a regular choice due to it's high prices.
