My friend and visited this place today. We ordered kerala beef roast which tastes good but quantity wasn't enough for $17.99 . We also tried their combo of idly and vada which comes 2 idlies and 2 vadas with three sides, sambar, coconut chutney and tomato chutney. Both the chutneys tasted good. But I am not fond of their sambar. Moreover, their idlies and vadas were too small. Lastly, we had Mysore masala dosa which we liked most out of the three dishes we ordered. MASALA tastes good and it comes with sides of sambar, coconut chutney, and tomato chutney, and it costs $14.99. The service was very poor. The girl who took our orders had an attitude of not welcoming, which seems like we are taking free meals.

October 29, 2024

Restaurant interiors are pretty shabby and dirty. We ordered Dosa but the chutneys were watered down and sambhar was really bad :( . We had high expectations from the place given its Google reviews. But food and ambience was really bad :(

Very nice ambience. Chicken 65 was really delicious. Chicken Manchurian was ok and chicken fried rice was really good. Food takes little long to get to the table but totally worth the wait. Everything was fresh and hot. Friendly service. Fair price.

Customer service very very bad. We are going near kitchen each time to order the food. They take lot of time to give the food even there is no crowd in the restaurant. The quantity is very less, they charge more , what we pay and what we recieve is not at all acceptable. They really need to work on customer service . Special chicken curry is good try that and order more it’s not sufficient for one person. Serving bowl Pictures are added.

Went here for the first time after stumbling upon it whole driving. We are so glad we tried the food there. There were lots of options on the menu. We went with cauliflower pakora, chili prawns, and Garuda's chef recommended chicken curry with rice. We went with medium spicy, which was plenty of spice for us! One of the dishes was a bit more than what we could handle. The server was super nice on taking that dish back to the chef and added more cream to make it a bit less spicy! We are very thankful to the server and the chef to make our first visit fantastic. We will definitely be back as there are so many more dishes to try!

My god was everything we had ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS 🤤 As a Sri Lankan in Sudbury, this is the closest I’ve gotten to home cooked food. The Dosas are cooked to perfection and don’t get me started on the biriyani! Chilli chicken and Garuda Special was amazing! 100/10 and you can bet all the money in the world that we’ll be back to try more! Thank you Garuda for a little taste of home ❤️ been here twice now and can’t get enough!

This family-run place is such a pleasant surprise, if visiting Sudbury, and craving authentic South Indian food. Out of the elaborate spread that we ordered, a special mention to the chicken curry, egg curry, dal and chapatis that readily teleported us to a home-style cozy Andhra kitchen on a balmy summer afternoon.

The family owned business brings warmth and comfort to the restaurant and reminds me of my childhood. 10/10 I recommend!

Worst experience ever. I went to the restaurant by seeing google ratings. But unfortunately the food was not good.We ordered special chicken biryani and dum biriyani Bt the food was below average. The most disappointing part is there was no customer service. No one came to check if we need anything or not after giving the food.we finished our whole food but no one came once to check. We wanted to order drink But we couldnt as no one came to us. We have to come at the front twice just to ask for the bill as no one was there. Never gonna go there again..

May 22, 2024

The order was missing items and they blamed it on the delivery driver. We contacted the delivery driver and he went back to get the missing food. The restaurant then lied again and denied their mistake. Not a good way to treat the customers and the delivery driver.

Update: great improvement at cook time and they are working on the decor. They have great kids menu as well. Keep up the great work! Food is amazing! However they need to work on changing it from the previous fish restaurant setup it was to a South Indian restaurant. Ambiance is way off for what type of food they serve. Again the food is amazing but the wait minimal one hour. They need to focus on the people that are dining in instead of pushing out delivery orders. Over time hopefully the business operations will improve however in my opinion I don t think it will happen fast enough. This place could be so much more than it is, just needs the right touch. However you will not be disappointed in the food it is amazing, just everything else needs improvement overnight. As well they need a basic kids menu.

I recently dined at Restaurant Garuda, known for its South Indian cuisine, and I had a mixed but overall positive experience. The highlight was their Chicken Biryani, which I tried on a friends recommendation. Upon arrival, I noticed the Chicken Biryani was listed as the daily special on a chalkboard. However, when ordering, there was a bit of confusion with the waitress, possibly due to a language barrier, as she initially said it wasnt part of the daily special until I pointed it out. I prefer milder flavors and asked if the Biryani could be made less spicy. Despite this, the dish, which took around 45 minutes to arrive, turned out to be extremely spicy. It was later clarified that it was one of the spiciest items on their menu a crucial detail I wish had been shared with me earlier. The waitress, realizing the oversight, was apologetic and offered yogurt to help with the spice, a gesture I appreciated. Her politeness and genuine concern were commendable. Despite the spice level, the Biryani was flavorful, and the restaurants ambiance was inviting. I would recommend Restaurant Garuda for its tasty food and pleasant atmosphere, but advise diners to clarify spice levels when ordering!
