Invitation Indian Cuisine in Chemainus

Butter chicken was fantastic

Always excellent food - we are repeat customers who have enjoyed everything we have tried!

Best in Cowichan Valley for sure!

Tasty Indian cuisine

Loved this place. 100% coming back. Please dont change anything!!

Disappointment today at Invitation Indian Cuisine in Chemainus. We ordered Take Out - the Chicken Pakora, Chicken Jalfrazie, Cjicken Biryni and the Asst Bread Basket. All of the chicken dishes were very dry and in-appetizing, especially the pakora which is usually plump and juicy. $60+ of food thrown in the garbage. So sad as I have always had wonderful food here and have always recommended it to all my friends. Does anyone know if they have recently changed ownership or have a new chef?

Great tasting food, delivered to your table by an excellent staff. When I received the bill I was happily surprised with the value we were given. Will go again and again. Thank you!

Food was good standard Indian. Service could ve been better

Food quite good. New to Indian food

I asked for the cilantro to be removed because I am allergic to cilantro, but there was cilantro on the fish. When I complained, they said they would do it again and only removed the cilantro from the fish. The fish was dug up and the small coriander particles were still there. He said he could eat this much. I asked if they could take responsibility if an allergic reaction occurred and they said they would do it again only then. They canceled the meal and just left. Meanwhile, they ate and chatted among themselves.

Disappointing and terrible. Having lived in Vancouver where Indian cuisine is outstanding, this place fell short of my expectations. I had a dish with eggplants but there was no eggplant in it. I do not recommend it. Food : 1/5

Great food and top notch service!

Food and service seemed average. One of the best mango lassi I have ever had. The tandoori chicken is worth the price. Very accessible and lots of parking options on street.

Wonderful food. We saw a line of locals going in and decided it must be good. We were not disappointed! Fresh, delicious,hot and filling.

Fast, tasty, very fair prices.

Best Indian food Ive had in a long time!

I had high hopes for this restaurant based on reviews. We were waiting and waiting to be served and the server came and asked us are you ready for your bill. The washroom had a weird smell like it wasn t cleaned for days. The server seemed she didn t want to be there. Then later we had to ask for things that would have been bought out to us. To top that the server had a bad underarm odour for which I nearly vomitted. We won t go there again

High marks for the entres we had. This place could do better on naan. Noticeably smaller than what is typically offered in Indian restaurants. Secondly, on desserts, give them a pass unless you wish to pay five dollars for a few tablespoonfulls of ice cream or for gulab jamuns and receiving only two average size jamuns with one tablespoonful of syrup.

Ordered takeout from here Food was simple and flavourful.

Loved the chicken biryani!

First time trying Indian Food and OMG Delicious. Will definitely go again. Excellent food and waitress was very polite and friendly.

Absolutely delicious. Indian is a staple for our family and we were so impressed with the quality of the food in such a laid back restaurant. Great prices, great selection, food came out quickly and everything was yum .

Take out this time. Delicious. Tried the coconut veg, really good. Also had the Butter chicken and Palak Paneer. Good spice great flavours!

Excellent tasting meals prepared to specifications re: individual spicy/heat requirements, extraordinarily wide variety of appetizers and main meals from which to choose, large portions, very attentive and kind, friendly service. Am surprised this restaurant isnt constantly filled to capacity considering the level of service and quality of food. 5+ stars.

Lamb curry combo with naan, veggie pakora, dessert and pop for $29.99. Price on website is not updated. 4.5 stars Lamb curry was tender and naan bread that was included was nice and fluffy. Veggie pakoras were over cooked.

Highly recommend vindaloo and tandoori dishes.

Best Indian food Ive had in a long time. Looking forward to our next dinner there.

I recently dined at what I believe to be one of the finest Indian restaurants on Vancouver Island, and I must say, it exceeded all expectations. The culinary journey I experienced left me thoroughly impressed, and Ive never been disappointed with my visits here. The food speaks volumes of the chefs expertise and dedication to quality. The naan, freshly baked and golden, perfectly complemented the rich and flavorful chicken masala. Each dish on the menu showcases a symphony of spices, highlighting the restaurants commitment to authentic flavors and culinary excellence. What truly sets this establishment apart is the impeccable service. The staff consistently goes above and beyond to ensure that every guest feels welcome and attended to. Their attention to detail, from offering menu recommendations to accommodating dietary restrictions, is commendable and adds to the overall dining experience. In all my visits, I have never once been disappointed. The consistency in quality and flavor is remarkable, making this restaurant stand out as one of the best Indian dining experiences on Vancouver Island. In conclusion, if youre craving an authentic taste of India served with warmth and hospitality, this restaurant is a must-visit. I highly recommend it and eagerly anticipate my next dining experience there.

Of the many Indian restaurants I got to, Invitation is by far the best. The food is always spectacular, the service is accommodating, and the quality is consistent. I would strongly advise anyone coming to Chemainus to stop by (or make a special trip out). The best Indian food ever!!!

First time ordering here I ordered Crispy Fried Calamari and the famous Butter chicken. As expected the buttered chicken so tasty, only gave 3 star because of the crispy fried calamari that was not crispy at all and price was not worth it. Other than that love the butter chicken as always.... I definitely will not order the Calamari again.

Small, no-frills Indian restaurant but the food is absolutely fantastic. Whether taking out or dining in, this is probably as authentic as it is going to get on Vancouver Island

Don t wait to be invited to Invitation Indian Restaurant just go, you won t regret it! Since moving to Vancouver Island nine years ago, we ve searched high and low for a good quality Indian Restaurant, serving authentic cuisine. We ve had many missed the mark, quite a few on the fence, and the odd ok but nothing outstanding. We fulfilled our mission tonight, when we chanced upon Invitation in Chemainus. Chemainus is about a 45 minute drive from where we live we ummed and aahed as to whether we wanted to drive that far for a curry we re very glad we did and will do it again gladly. An easily navigable menu, with all the regular favourites and some lesser known goodies I was very happy to find a Saag on the menu which I hadn t seen for ages and it was spectacular, as was everything else we had to eat. Our seafood platter appetiser consisted of spiced battered calamari, fish and prawns it arrived piping hot, and was deliciously mouthwatering. We followed up with some plain basmati rice, lamb saag (with cream and spinach) Goan fish curry, chicken Karahi and eggplant bhartha. The flavours of each were complex and entirely discernible in each dish no basic one size fits all base sauce in this restaurant. We couldn t miss out on a naan bread there s lots of flavour options; we chose garlic and basil. We even managed to squeeze in a gulab jamon dessert honeyed sweetness at its finest. This little outing cost us $101.00 I should mention that our over-ordering tactic paid off, as we left with two complete dinners for another day. Who can complain at $25 a head for a great meal these days not us! Staff were friendly and helpful, checking that we were enjoying our dinner without swamping us. I can t say enough good things about Invitation, and will most definitely return. If you enjoy superb quality, East Indian food, then you should go too you won t be disappointed based on our experience.

The food here is amazing! We ordered the mixed platter appies, chicken korma, lamb jalrezi and garlic naan! Incredible flavor, fresh, hot and so filling. Our food was ready really quickly and such great value for a delicious meal.Enough for lunch again tomorrow. Hands down the BEST Indian food in the Valley!

Hands down our favourite restaurant in town! We haven t ordered anything we did not like! We especially love the eggplant bharta, garlic naan, raita, pakora, and tandoori chicken or butter chicken The service is always great and friendly too!

Excellent Indian food. Easily the best on Vancouver Island.

We shared dhal, eggplant bartha, rice, bread basket, raita, all was very yummy, and well priced. Would absolutely eat here again. Vegetarian options: Many veggie options.

One of the best curries Ive had! They gave us the option of mild, mefium and hot. I had the korma and it was delicious and so is the peshwari naan bread. Service was wonderful and next time we visit Chemainus we will definitely dine in. Highly recommend!

Food was really Good, and service was fast Dietary restrictions: I don t like spice and the waiter was very helpful coconut curry for the win Parking: Lots of options

I didnt often choose Indian cuisine prior to eating here and now I cant get enough - their sauces are incredible and the most flavorful thing Ive ever eaten! Food is consistently excellent!

The food was absolutely delicious! Some of the most tender chicken I ve ever had. The rice and bread were also perfect, we will definitely be back again. That said, we will be doing take out, the service was pretty bad, they were quite rude to my partner after giving our table away to someone else. (We reserved due to theatre tickets) They were out of all the Indian beer and would walk off before we even got a chance to ask for another drink or more napkins. We were a table of 6 so spent good money there but felt very dismissed during the entire meal. They really need to work on their service and also interior decor as it s so stale and has no atmosphere. The food saves it though!

The cooking is so delicious, Indian food that you must not miss Everyone is full of praises

Great food, great price.

Very delicious. Fantastic Dal Makhani and Chana Masala. I would definitely recommend this place, and I ll be coming back.

Im so glad I found this restaurant! Ordered Paneer pakora, chicken tandoor and daal. They were all delicious and I cant wait to try more items in the menu.

Friendly Restaurant serving up great food!

The food is DELICIOUS! These hard-working people, dedicated to providing quality food and service, are heartily appreciated!! Thank you for doing what you do.

Ate such good food after a long time. Have been in the island for past few years. Yet this place was not discovered. Great presentation, taste and quantity of the food served. Keep up the great work. Food

We went for mothers Day dinner and they gave my mom chocolates and a small plant, the food was excellent! Highly recommend

The best place for Indian food on the Island trust me. Generous, flavours full to its finest. You will no be disappointed.

The best Indian food on Vancouver Island.

Great Indian food and great service. Took my mom there for Mothers day and as I was paying the bill they gave her a small plant as a gift for the occasion

The best restaurant in Chemainus. Absolutely worth travelling from out of the town just for the food!!! We had Chicken Saag and Lamb Vindaloo, and was incredible.

Food is hands down fantastic, staff are always great

We enjoyed the food. Hefty serving

The best garlic nan and vegi-samosa on the island! Butter chicken is also very good, the chicken meat is very juicy and tender. I also like their lamb masala! Will be back definitely!

Exceptional flavour. Fantastic value. I m definitely going to make a point of coming back here when I m on Vancouver Island.

Great food at this little place in Chemainus. We take our out of town friends there a lot! Keep up the great work!

We stopped here for a vegetarian meal and chose the vegetable biryani. We were offered three different heat options and chose the medium. The Biryani was excellent, the service friendly and attentive, and the value for money was outstanding. Vegetarian options: Plenty of choice.

Seriously some of the best Indian Cuisine on the island! A robust menu with all the classics and even more. If your ever in Chemainus you ought to try the place out. You won t be disappointed! Clean and tidy restaurant with a very professional staff, Food comes out hot and fresh. Portions and prices are fair and reasonable. Parking can be problematic sometimes.

Excellent authentic food!

I haven t eaten at the restaurant, yet, so I will hold off on rating the in-house service and atmosphere. I only had takeout so far. I can say the food met my highest expectations. I want to try everything now. I had the lamb curry, spicy hot, with rice and naan. The meat portion was generous and so delicious. My husband and his sister had medium spicy chicken curry with garlic naan and rice and they both loved theirs as well. I can say the food was ready when I went to pick it up. And the young man who took care of the delivery and payment was very efficient, friendly, and helpful. We will be back.

Very very very good!

Fantastic food. For a great price. Atmosphere could be better.

Awesome and authentic Indian dishes!!

Delicious food worth of money

Definitely not expecting such An amazing dining experience from a restaurant in a town I d not heard of until 30 minutes prior to driving by. Wow. We ll worth the trip there. Sail, fly, or swim if you have to; just get there. Food

Ordered take out so cant comment too much on the atmosphere or service beyond the fact that my order was ready when they said it would be and the staff were friendly when I picked it up. Had naan, chicken vindaloo, spicy vegetables, and lamb saag, both were excellent. Price seemed appropriate for the serving size and quality.

The food is AMAZING and leaves you satisfied! Easy on the pocket book for such quality food. LOOOOVE the atmosphere!

Awesome food and service.. love this place

On my first visit here, I ordered food for takeaway. It was fast and delicious. The price was reasonable and quantity good. Vegetarian options: The Aloo Gobi was delicious.

Some of the best Indian food I ve ever had! So good!

Best Indian cuisine on the Island!

Lamb masala is to die for

Eggplant Bharta cooked in the tandoor was wonderful! Also enjoyed the green pepper paneer, great flavour

Possibly the highest quality Indian food Ive ever had. Perfectly cooked meat accompanying gorgeous, well spiced dishes. If youre in Chemainus this is a must try.

A trip out to Thesis Island hit a HIGH note when we stopped for dinner at this Indian Cuisine Restaurant. The food is of such high quality and taste that no other Indian food will reach this standard Im sorry to say. It is worth making a trip to Chemainus just for this unique experience. Owners are kind and friendly. The preparation of the food is unsurpassed. Add 5 more stars!

Fast service, reasonably priced and food was DELICIOUS! We will definitely be going back and recommending to others! We heard about this place by word of mouth and by God is it good!

Amazing food!

Good food

The best restaurant in taste and customer service

We were so hungry and looking for Indian restaurant and first we were in doubt of less reviews but this place has very good Indian food. Taste and quantity is more than sufficient and worth for price too.

Incredibly good food!!

Got chicken biryani and samosas for take-out en route to Thetis. Friendly, very quick, and the food was phenomenal. Well be back!

Great food

Amazing fresh tasty yummy Indian food we drive all the way from Nanaimo to have their food

Sophisticated, elegant, and perfectly cooked, of course we will be back!

Very good Indian basics

Great, very reasonably priced food, prepared quickly and professionally. A hidden gem of Vancouver Island.

Being British, we do tend to be Indian food snobs because weve been blessed with world class Indian food... I often hear go to x, its close to what you get back home - but it invariably disappoints. Not this time! This is the BEST Indian food I have had anywhere in North America (I lived in the States too). It was fabulous... every dish, from the Tandoori Prawns to the Lamb Korma to one of the spinach dishes. Highly, highly, 5-star recommended!

Came here for dinner last night. The food was delicious and the service very friendly. Highly recommend and will return again!

Excellent food, excellent service, great value for the money.

Booked at 5.00pm ,Got a table on arrival, the server was there with water and drink orders,within 2-3 mins. The food came after 10 mins hot and excellent taste. I must state, the whole experience was fantastic.Great Job guys. see you soon.

I ordered an assorted bread basket and palak paneer. The naan was very good. The palak paneer also tasted great but I almost fractured my tooth from a rock while chewing. I let it go thinking it was just a freak accident when again I crunched on another couple stones. It s not uncommon for stones to get in the spinach while harvesting which is the reason why it has to be rinsed out thoroughly before preparing. I suspect that it wasn t rinsed properly. Now I m looking at an expensive dental fix.

Were from duncan and we will definitely be doing the drive out here from now on! So delicious! Best indian food we have ever had

Absolutely Phenomenal food! I was wondering if previous reviews would upto our expectations.. and it definitely did! It was like home cooked food but spiced in a way that enhanced the flavours! Hands down the best indian food u have had.. including in India!

So delicious, cant go wrong with whatever you order. The butter chicken is truly wonderful, and the mango curry is amazing, a good balance of flavours. Definitely going to get again.

This is the best East Indian food on the island hands down. Best dishes ive ever had. I would recommend the garlic ghobi, butter chicken and mango chicken. All are incredible. Humble, amazing place!

Great food

I was super impressed.

Great food. Pleasant service. Comfortable seats. Chai tea is refillable!

We had the best Pakoras ever here and and all round delicious meal! Mango Lassi was perfect sweetness. Highly recommend a visit to Invitation!

Excellent customer service; food was tasty

It was delicious, the lamb was huge, the prawns were tender and tasted good! You must try it when you pass by here!

Amazing food, super fresh everything, blown away. Great lunch with the wifey thanks so much :)

OMG! First time I tried Indian food and I think its gonna be hard to top. Its so delicious. The service is good. The place is ok. Definitely must try.

very good

Very good quality food Service is 5 stars

I have been to this place twice. Never disappointed. Ordered daal makhani and paneer lababdar. Definitely best Indian restaurant one can visit on Island.

Wow ..Food N Service: 10/10. Every single thing was so flavorful and authentic. Didn t waisted time at all. We wish, to visit here again.

Amazing food, friendly service! Could use a better drink menu and carrying the ingredients to make them (had Caesar on the menu but couldnt provide it) Other than that it was a lovely dinner.

Their foods are delicious always. The best of course in Chemainus area and price is reasonable. Very helpful for our big order, they really accomodate it well, thank you. Also, I am in love with vegetable korma besides their chicken masala.

Recently placed an order for take out after they mistakenly placed our order for vegetarian rather than chicken we called back they were willing to remake the 3 dishes with chicken but when we went back to pick the corrected order you asked us to pay for it isn t that your mistake at your cost sorry but we ll go somewhere else next time

Delicious food and friendly staff. The chicken korma, pakoras, and garlic naan are my favourites. The only downside is that I prefer my Indian food made with brown meat.

The food was some of the best Indian food I ve had. Everything we ordered was fantastic AND gluten-free! Our party all agreed that it was a Flavour Extravaganza!!! What it lacks in fancy atmosphere it more than makes up for in quality and service. I can t wait to go back! It was the feather in the hat of our trip to charming Chemainus.

Savoury, fresh and well balanced food! Effortlessly the best one in the Island. Hands down! The value, the atmosphere, the service, the skill of the Chef whoever produced those food on our table is beyond my believe. Keep it up!!

First time today at this restaurant. The service was excellent. The Butter Chicken was the best I have ever had. The sauce was perfectly seasoned, smooth and SO enjoyable. The Naan bread was fresh out of the oven. Very tender and again the best Ive had. I would highly recommend this restaurant You wont be disappointed.

Excellent food and service..will be back for sure!!

BEST Indian food in the area, no doubt about it! The service was friendly, the food fantastic! Dont miss the Pakoras!!

Always amazing

Some of the best Indian food so far. Friendly service as well.

Great food and affordable for the kids and family. Really great place

Amazing food and service highly recommended you try it

Pretty dank

Great indian food. Best indian in the valley. Fresh and tasty food, good service, consistent and a great addition to the community, go here once a week

We order from here all the time, we travel from out of town because its that good! Not once have been disappointed.

Food was excellent. Service good but the beer wasnt cold enough and spicy Indian food goes best with icy cold beer.

Food taste good but very less quantity.

Excellent Indian food! Sooooo good and fresh!

Always great service and fantastic food

Agree with many of the comments already posted. Eaten in once and two takeouts. All three were delicious and high-quality. This is no bogus Canadian Indian food. This is the good stuff. Minor gripe I think the raita could be jazzed up a notch. Odd that this restaurant doesnt show on Google maps until I selected restaurant search. Pleased to see this place doing so well. They deserve it. Great job guys.

Great food and reasonable prices. We had chicken curry and chicken karahi with naan bread.

Ordered take out for the first time tonight. Have not had great indian food since our favorite place shut down in Duncan. I am sad I didnt try this place sooner! Absolutely great authentic food..and huge portions! you are missing out if you dont give this place a try!

A perfect work lunch for two. Chicken Korma, vegetable Samosas and plain naan! Dips were delicious, bright and delightful. I think $25 plus tax and was awesome. Enjoy your meal! If you want a gluten free version, don t order the naan. My husband loves naan.. I wish I could eat it!

Went for the first time last night on our 19th wedding anniversary. Very, very good food and service.

The food is delicious and the service is always welcoming and helpful. We go often and everything we ve tried has been fantastic. Highly recommend!

This place was absolutely amazing. I used to live in England and since we moved to Canada this is the best curry Ive had yet! I would highly recommend this place to anyone, great food, great service and local.

Good authentic Indian, super clean, great service -- We had about four dishes, all were tasty, hot and a very nice sized portion! It was so good we decided to get a take out order for my Dad!

Great food! Awesome service.. Come check out a great experience.

Amazing! Highly recommend! Fresh fragrant spices in every dish. The staples like butter chicken and korma will make you feel like you are trying them for the first time. My five year old cant get enough and keeps asking to go back. The best Indian food on the island, well worth the drive. It shows that owners really care about their craft and your happiness. The containers for take out were durable and didnt spill in transit. We are grateful that they exist!

Absolutely amazing food! I purchase curry every week and it is fantastic every single time! Best Indian food on the Island A++++++++++++++++

Best Indian food on the whole Island..the chicken is sooo juicy n soft..d curries are so creamy n yummy..my fav is chicken lababdar...hats to chef fr d supreme taste consistency..somthing most Indian restaurants here are missing..must try !!!

Great Service , Great Prices & Authentic Indian Cuisine , so so Good !! Cudos !

Best butter chicken and naan i have ever had!!! Amazing and kind staff, my takeout was hot and delicious! This place is a 10/10 i highly recommend

Family owned Invitation Indian Cuisine restaurant excels in all regards; fresh dishes, prompt service, well priced in calm settling. Be sure to stop by or order take out.

Really great coconut chicken curry and the cauliflower bites were also good.

Absolutely delicious Indian food - we tried so many different dishes and ALL were just excellent - especially the Chicken Vindaloo! Highly recommend!!!

Incredible food and friendly staff! Such a treasure to have here in Chemainus. We have ordered countless times since they first opened and have now tried just about every chicken and vegetarian item on the menu and every one of them was DEVINE!!! We recommend this place to every one looking for an authentic Indian food experience!

Fabulous Indian food!! I ordered takeout so I can t speak to the service/ambiance, but everything I ordered was hot, fresh, and delicious! The coconut lamb and chicken korma were my two favourites.

Great taste and large portions

I just picked up a few appetizers and they were fantastic! look forward to ordering for a full course meal soon!

Large menu... Excellent food.... Staff very nice and polite... Would recommend

I just moved from Toronto and this place is better than anything I was getting there. Highly recommend.

great food!

Great. Tasted good great flavors and nice serving staff. You can tell they are short staffed (not their fault, the entire area is struggling finding people to work in stores and restaurants). The front of house staff did their best to keep up. Absolutely worth checking out if in the Chemanius area.

Amazing food, very attentive service!

Have been here a few times. Every dish weve tried is very good from various pakoras to naan and samosas. The chicken skewers were very tender and tasty. Service is friendly.

I have eaten here several times. Every time it was delicious! The staff are friendly and accommodating. Portions were large and did I mention delicious? I would highly recommend this restaurant and I certainly will be a repeat customer.

Really good food However they never answer their phone.. So Id rate 3 stars on service And food 5 stars

Wonderful food with generous portions, very friendly staff and a nice interior. Good prices.

The best food I have ever had in my life. The chicken Tikka masala is out if this world. We tried chicken korma, chicken curry, butter chicken, califlower fritters, eggplant veggies dish and every single one had its own symphony of flavors. If I could give more stars I would have.

By far the best Indian food I have ever had. Would drive here again just for the food. Fresh ingredients with tons of flavor, and generous portions. Only issue is the menu is so large, its difficult to pick!

Excellent food. The restaurant was very clean and the staff very attentive and accommodating. If we ever are in the area at mealtime we will definitely make a stop.

Went here because it and the cannabis store around the corner are just about the only places in this town that are actually open at dinner time and I wasn t really feeling infused gummies for dinner. I was pleasantly surprised to find a good restaurant! Wonderfully off brand for the area!

Weve only ordered takeout, but goodness gracious - their food is incredible. The cuts of meat they use are super high quality, prices seem fair, flavours are incredible - highly recommend their veggie pakoras as an app as well

Best indian food across Canada. Great attention to detail and taste.

The food that was served was simply excellent. We ordered Chicken Tikka Masala and Lamb Kadhai; the rice served was Basmati. The décor of the restaurant could be enhanced, however, this will happen in time.

This restaurant was recommended by one of the local. I was skeptical at first, but it turned out to be one of the best Indian meals I have ever had. The people were friendly and the butter chicken and coconut chicken were excellent.

I read review and was skeptical, but I had take out from there last night and it was excellent. The best Indian food Ive had since coming from the Mainland. Great spot.

This is the best Indian food for miles around. As I grew up in the UK and was blessed to be surrounded by great Indian restaurants, I feel that I am a good judge of quality Indian cuisine. Now I can say Im blessed to live nearby.

Im from Toronto where there are Indian restaurants everywhere. I wish this place was back home. The food here is all so delicious!

Excellent Indian dishes, tasty, great portion size, and great staff. Love it! Highly recommended!

Fantastic food great service..will be back.

Great food, and service. We will be back

I had the most delicious and tasty Indian dishes of my life and i have eaten at many restaurants in vancouver and the island. We had the beef samosa lamb korma, and the chicken vindaloo. They make every thing from fresh daily and 20 year experienced chefs they tell me. It really is a delightful symphony for the taste buds. August 28

Best ever!

Excellent

Delightful food served by great servers.

We recently stumbled upon this place and are we ever glad we did! We had naan, vegetable samosas with chutney, aloo gobi and butter chicken. Everything was amazing and this is the best Indian food Ive ever had. Being from India, Ive had lots of Indian food over the years so this is saying a lot. The food arrived fast and hot, service was great.

Very very good service and very very good food.

Best on the island!

Fantastic food with deep, layered flavours. Highly recommend!

We eat a lot of Indian food, and this was the best weve had on Vancouver Island.

Delicious - Chemainus is so lucky to have such flavorful and diverse Indian cuisine. My favorites: Chana masala, Palak paneer and lamb vindaloo, yumm!

Hands down the best butter chicken. Very friendly staff. A little gem
