| - The definition of a hidden gem, Bukhara Grill is located in the Bloor West Village, its entrance tucked beside a Pizza Pizza. I was initially skeptical as I walked down a rather steep flight of stairs to get into the restaurant itself, but pleasantly surprised to find that it was elegantly decorated, white table clothes and all, and very quiet despite the hustle and bustle of the main street above. My boyfriend and I decided to try this place on a Friday night after hearing glowing reviews from one of his co-workers.
Ambiance:
Beautifully decorated, with white table clothes and white napkins neatly folded on the the table. Very classy, and more formal than I had expected (and found myself dressed a little too casually for the occasion).
Service:
One thing that made the experience outstanding was the attentive service. It was a first for me to have a fresh hot towel provided at the beginning of the meal, and never have I ever had my glass of water refilled so many times! The waiters and servers are all very polite and gave helpful recommendations for what to order.
Food:
All of the food was fresh, flavourful and delicious! My boyfriend and I shared a basket of naan, garlic rice, Chicken Jalfrezi (chicken cooked with ginger, garlic, onion and capsicum *the orange dish*) and Saag Chicken (chicken cooked with garlic, onion, green chillies and spinach *the green dish*). I particularly enjoyed the chicken jalfezi, as it seemed spicier than the saag chicken. I will be back for more!
