Little India is one of my favourite Indian restaurants in the downtown core.
I recommend ordering a la carte as opposed to getting the buffet. The buffet is not terrible, but when you order a la carte the food is much more fresh. I feel as though it has a different taste when you get it from the buffet.
The prices are very reasonable. If I am eating with someone who eats meat, I normally get the veggie thali. That plate is good for dinner, and also for leftovers the next day. My counterparts usually get the meat thali. Warning- you WILL leave this restaurant smelling strongly like curry. My partner refuses to come here before we go out.
The service is very good. I usually always get the same waiter(s) every time, and I have been coming here for more than 8 years, so that says something.
My parents also enjoy this restaurant immensely, even my mom who is very very picky about her East Indian food. We are all East Indians btw, and my mom is an excellent cook.
Some of my favourite dishes; baingan bharta and vegetable jalfrezi.
Overall a good dining experience, and a cozy setting (though a bit cramped). I would recommend it for a date (as long as you enjoy the smell of curry afterwards).
