One of those “little restaurants” you hope to find in a new town. Very good service large portions and surprisingly fair price!! 26$ large chicken/rice dish, garlic naan bread and a ginger ale!! Spicy for sure!! But they ask how you want it!

Excellent service and great food! They cook to request for level of spice! We order white man fare and it is just perfect. Butter chicken is the best. Garlic naan is awesome and the biryani is delightful! The dining area is spotless and well maintained. Try this hidden gem and you’ll be surprised how good it is!

I’ve been to this place several times and usually enjoyed the food, but three weeks ago I ordered around $110 worth of food and ended up throwing it all away because nothing tasted good. Everything was either bland or undercooked, with burnt Dal Makhani and chicken floating in watery curry. I called the owner, who promised to get back to me after discussing it with his daughter, but I never heard from him. After waiting over a week, I called again, and a server said she would notify the owner, yet still no response. The service at Kohinoor has never been this poor, and their handling of complaints is unacceptable. I'm sharing this experience along with a picture for reference. I wasted $110 on that dinner and had to order from elsewhere at 9:30 PM. Overall, it was a terrible experience.

The food was exceptional, and the ambiance offered a wonderfully peaceful atmosphere. The lighting was perfectly balanced—neither too harsh nor too dim. Everything we tasted was fresh and delicious. The chef even came by to check on our experience and recommend some of their best-selling dishes. The hostess was incredibly friendly and respectful, making our service outstanding. We ordered Vegetable MoMos and Paneer Tikka, both of which were truly delightful and out of this world. Overall, it was an amazing experience! I totally recommend this business for morning breakfast, brunch, lunch, supper and dinner.

Friendly service and possibly the nicest curry I have eaten in North America. But to an English visitor, their idea of "hot" is "not very"!

We stopped by for a quick dinner with the friends. The staffs were super welcoming and the ambience was great. We snacked on some pakodas while waiting for our food. Everything that we had was so fresh and delicious. There was a buffet set up as well which looked soooo good, the chef was so kind and polite. We’re definitely coming back!!😍

Experience the incredible energy of hers!

I have yet to go to a restaurant that was as hospitable as this one. They accommodated our late arrival and served us one of the best tasting meals we have had. We have been to many Indian restaurants in the Kamloops area and this is our new #1 favourite. We highly recommend going to this location, not only for the scenic views while dining, but for the amazing hospitality and authentic cuisine. They also have a good variety of dishes that don't disappoint. You will find something that you like; and please try the Nepalese dishes, they are worth it!

Out of all the Indian options in Kamloops, Koh-I-Noor is my family s favourite! They also do Nepalese food that will not disappoint! Don t let the exterior property turn you away! This place is a hidden gem. Lovely chalet interior, fast and friendly service and the food is exceptional. Lunch buffet Mon-Fri and dinner buffet Sunday evenings. The food is indescribably good. Everything is so flavourful, tender and comforting. My family loves the korma dishes. Try their Nepalese food! We took a chance on the Momos the other night and they were delicious! We come here way too often. You should too. Five stars.

August 22, 2024

The Buffet is not worth its over priced. Food taste extremely old and very tainted. Chicken curry is absolutely water down and looks like heated every day same curry. Dont go to Buffet or else you are wasting your money. Building is very out dated needs major renovation.

We used to come here and enjoy fabulous food and the great view. While the latter hasnt changed the food quality has dramatically declined. We popped by for their lunch buffet. All dishes were bland and disappointing. The best was the bread. With the surrounding motel having become derelict the atmosphere is very depressing.

The food was great. You could choose the level of spiciness. One thing to note here is that it is very sharp. My wife ordered medium and couldnt eat it even though she can eat spicy. I ordered 9 out of 10 spicy and it was right . Just right for me. From the outside, my first impression would have been to keep driving. Dont be put off by the fact that the food is great.

Probably one of the best Indian meals we have had for a very long time. Each dish was distinctly different and full of flavours. The service was especially welcoming, friendly and helpful. Good choices and average pricing. Lovely views from the lower part of the restaurant. The surrounding properties do nothing to enhance the experience but once inside the ambience is encouraging. Dont hesitate to visit.

We visited the special Sunday Dinner Buffet at 5pm in March. The staff were very friendly, observant and attentive. The buffet was good although didn t pack quite the flavourful punch of other same name items from other Indian restaurants in the city. The pakora and calamari and pappadum were nice and crispy. The samosas were stuffed and yummy. Naan was delicious. Sad to see no paneer dishes! The chana masala was very watery and the vegetable korma needed lots more flavour and seasoning as did the curried vegetables. The curried vegetables were very very oily. I wish the tamarind chutney had been less liquidy and there had been a mint or mango chutney as well. My husband enjoyed the chicken dishes and said the rice pudding was the best he ever had! I would return but I would order off the menu next time and try some of the Nepalese items and Indian dishes with paneer and prawns. Vegetarian options: Lots!! Parking: Watch your step, lots of broken asphalt

Truly special Indian food. Had the Chicken Vindaloo (medium heat), Paneer (medium), Garlic Naan and Rice and can say that the quality was absolutely top notch. I was blown away. Note: Medium was on the Medium-Hot side, which was perfect for me, but you may want to adjust accordingly. The establishment exterior isnt fancy and I wasnt expecting much, but the interior was tidy, service was great and entire experience stellar. (So good that I am writing this review AT the table, which I do NOT do.) If in Kamloops, do yourself a favor and give this gem a go.

I was driving to Ashcroft and passing by the Kamloops; while the darkness crawled into the dusky sky, a familiar craving for a spicy Indo-Nepalese dinner ignited within me. I parked my vehicle on the side, took my phone out to explore the best cuisine in the town. Thats when I discovered Koh-I-Noor Indian Restaurant... ...Steam Chicken Momo and Bhutan ko Masu is the one I tried and was simply the best. Cooked to a degree of perfection! As the name Kohinoor suggests, it is really the diamond located in the heart of hillsides of Kamloops. Will definitely eat there again, if Im visiting nearby.

The samosas were very crispy but not greasy. All of this for $48 after taxes. Bigger portions than I have had at a lot of other Indian restaurants.

We ordered four curries, they all taste same, look same like literally in one sauce they made it all. I specially told them pls don t make it sweet, still, it was very sweet. Wastage of money. Last time they gave us raw naan. This time horrible food. Never ever recommend to anyone. It s a shame to called them a Indian restaurant, you should go and learn first how to make authentic Indian food. Costco butter chicken sauce tastes Better then their food.

On a road trip to Vancouver, we stopped at Kamloops and decided to have dinner in this restaurant. They served us one of the best juicy chicken momos we ever had, delicious chicken biryani and refreshing mango lassi. Not to forget our server ( Prava, if I remember correctly) was very friendly. I would definitely recommend this place.

Amazing hidden gem, this restaurant is family owned and operated and the food tastes as such. We could not stop talking about how flavorful everything we ordered tasted. Highly recommend ordering the momos if you are here. The staff was very friendly and welcoming and made it feel like home. Highly recommend the momos!

Absolutely the worst Indian restaurant I ve been to!! I m Indian and cook Indian food but this was horrible! The buffet is disgusting old reheated and watered down food! Literally no salt or spices in anything! I had to ask for salt and pepper in an Indian restaurant! I got the buffet and we had to order raita separately and pay for it! There was no dessert although it was advertised as included in the price! Chicken curry and butter chicken were the worst I ve ever had! The aloo gobi looked nice but old deep fried potatoes and no seasoning! The vegetable korma was bland and old tasting. The chana mAsala was like a watery soup you would get in hospital! Save your money and go somewhere else!

This place serves the best momos in town. Infact the only place where you actually get authentic momos. Great service. There is a tad bit of a wait for the momos but thats acceptable since they make it fresh. Highly recommend Kohinoor. My go to place for momo cravings!

After a long drive from Calgary, we had a lot of trouble trying to find a good place to eat dinner. When we came across this specific restaurant on our search for dinner, we did not hesitate to come quickly. We were immediately greeted by a great server and we were presented with a wide range of food on the menu. Our main focus was based towards the Nepalese food since my parents and myself are Nepali. The momos were very delicious and appetizing, and it left a great aftertaste too. The Indian cuisine is just as great too, with the karahi paneer and garlic naan being exceptional. Although you may come for the Indian food here, I highly suggest the Nepali food as it is just as amazing.

Indisputably, this was one the best tasting Indian and Nepali food that we ve had in a long time. We were just passing through Kamloops. We were craving for Indian food and got here ~ 30 mins before they opened. They still let us in and served us their delicious food. We tried fish masala and chilli chicken curry. They both were amazing. For us the winner was their steam cooked momos. We will definitely stop by here the next time we are passing by.

5+ Stars! We stopped by this restaurant travelling to Vancouver via Kamloops. Despite the very bleak surroundings, this restaurant was incredible! The staff was extremely friendly, polite and attentive. We were the only ones eating in, however there was a non-stop line of traffic getting take out. We had the butter chicken, mango chicken and chana masala with garlic naan, veggie pakora & beef/veggie samosas. Every single item was full of flavour, piping hot and served in a nicely presented way. I highly recommend this restaurant & thank them for the fantastic service!

Im not sure what it was about this place, the decrepit motel around it? Or the fact that they couldnt do a simple vegetable pakora. I did the lunch buffet, and the batter on the pakora doesnt make sense? It was almost like a stale tempura batter. The butter sauce had to be most boring and bland sauce. The korma had an excess of ghee. Maybe the dinner buffet is better? Maybe the menu is better? Im not sure why this restaurant is as highly rated as it is. It doesnt deserve to be. The curry beef was better than I expected it to be, but I was surprised to find it. A few bright spots though, the rice pudding? Delicious. The staff was extremely friendly, and were quick with the water and to clear the plates! Parking: Its in the middle of a closed motel, parking galore.
