    2nd best Indian takeout in 2014… yeah, not so much anymore.To start off, the Dahl was pretty good. Could have had more spice, but as I have come to understand, the pallet of Victoria tends to find mayonnaise zesty. The portion was ample and all in all, I’d probably order it again. That is where the positives stop.I’m not sure if it was a really low bar in 2014 or if it has been that big of a slide but I have never tasted a butter chicken as bad as what I got from here. It was a thin, sweet tomato sauce, with virtually zero spice and a splash of cream and/or yogurt to make it less obvious you were basically eating something similar to canned Hunts tomato sauce, or Prego. Seriously, it tasted like the cheapest spaghetti sauce you can buy with some form of dairy added. The chicken was so dry and flavourless, one could be excused for mistaking the bland chunks for old erasers or shoe-soles. I’ve honestly had better butter chicken at a gas station in the middle of South Dakota than here. The portion:price was decent but that hardly makes up for the worst Indian food experience I have had in a long time.The naan was also terrible, and might have been the packaged naan you can buy for $3 for 5or6 pieces at the local grocery store. It was cold, rubbery and the garlic naan had zero garlic flavour.My next day wasn’t so hot either, but we can all do without reliving those details. All and all this was a terrible experience I hope to never revisit. I thought it was worth a try as it was open late and I didn’t want pizza or fast food, I regret that decision. Feel free to roll the dice and take your chances.

    Ordered butter chicken, rice and naan breadFirst off, the order arrived over 2 hours after it was ordered. Was told the driver was out for delivery and had to wait an hour after that talk for him to show up. The packaging was horrible. Leaked everywhere. Naan bread was just a heated up pita bread. Butter chicken tasted like chicken in tomato sauce with a hint of curry AND it was 90% sauce/10% chicken. Food was lukewarm and the rice was cold when it arrived. Will NEVER be ordering from here ever again. Future customers BE WARNED!!!!

    This is a place my wife and I love to get take-out from when we’re not feeling like cooking. Be warned that some of the curries, such as goat, have bones that are quite annoying to pick through. I know it’s an ordinary thing to order but they have great butter chicken. Some of their menu items are hit-or-miss (goat, as mentioned, as well as lamb curries are less than stellar) but they have great samosas (incredible dipping sauce!) and naan. Obviously my review is only considering the food since it is very much a pick-up kind of place rather than eat-in, but the food is mostly good and reasonably priced.

    nothing more lazy than making your customers pay for the curry and meat seperate from the rice. to top it off the curry is like 3 dollars less than the full dish with rice at most other places. nothing more annoying getting a dish thinking your getting a dish; not part of a do it yourself meal thats overpriced.

    Ok, I am Indian and I expected some authentic INDIAN food. IT IS NOT. THE NAANS ARE PITAS, THE SHAHI PANEER CURRY HAS NO BASE, the place just reeks of unauthenticity. DO NOT EVER SPEND A PENNY HERE!

    AWFUL. I ordered the butter chicken and rice and poppadums to my place and it was 25$ which was a rip off and second the butter chicken was the most disgusting butter chicken I’ve ever had – it just didn’t taste right it was gross and oily and just bad and the chicken itself in it was chewy and just awful – do not suggest!!
