Modern Indian restaurant, offering Indian food in trendy setting
I recently had a disappointing experience at this restaurant . Upon entering, the ambiance was inviting, and I was eager to try their menu. However, after being seated, I waited for over 15 minutes without anyone coming to take my order. One server came and filled our glasses with water within the first few minutes and then nothing. Despite the restaurant being moderately busy, it felt like I was forgotten. I watched as other tables were attended to, while I sat there hoping someone would acknowledge my presence. Tried to grab their attention couple of times but they completely ignored the presence.After waiting patiently, I decided to leave, feeling frustrated and unvalued as a customer. It's unfortunate because I had heard good things about the food and service. However, my experience left much to be desired. I hope they can improve their customer service in the future, as it can truly make or break a dining experience.
I celebrated my birthday and GK was the best server ever! So happy we decided to come here and happy I could be accommodated on short notice. Food was phenomenal, served hot. Flavorful and the right consistency. Service on all accounts was superb. There’s even a live DJ that plays on Fridays and Saturdays. I liked that the booths are large and perfect for families or friend groups! An unforgettable experience. Keep up the fantastic quality and shoutout to the service one more time!
Real flexibility with their operating hours!! Atmosphere was amazing, just like authentic test. Service can be improve, fee of the tables were engaged at the time of dinner still service was sluggish. Staff was polite & helpful. Thanks & cheers🍻
We recently visited Dum Pukht and had such a great time. The food was incredible, the cocktails were great, and the service was super quick and friendly. We started with the Manchow soup, which was different from what I’m used to—it was white and less spicy than usual but still good. The Chicken Tikka and Chicken Hariyali Kebab were both fantastic—definitely 5/5! We also had Paneer ke Gulgule, which I’d give a 3/5 since it lacked spice, but the Gobi Manchurian was a solid 5/5, packed with flavor. The Fried Rice was delicious (4.5/5), and the Chicken Biryani was flavorful (4/5). We also had Kadhai Chicken and Garlic Naan, both of which tasted great, though the chicken portion could have been a bit more generous. To top it all off, they surprised us with a free birthday dessert, which was a really sweet touch! Overall, one of the best Indian restaurants I’ve been to in the GTA. Highly recommend checking it out!
Coming back from Muskoka, our whole group decided to have dinner at this restaurant. We ordered only tandoori veg momos for starters but then dived straight into main course. The momos chutney was awesome very close to Indian version but momos were not tandoori cooked in tandoor with no char or tandoor flavour. The main course was good. We ordered dal and paneer makhni, paneer tikka and chicken kadhai along with garlic and roomali roti and chicken and veg biryani. All the food was awesome and especially the daal makhni and paneer tikka. The portion size was little on the smaller side but totally worth it. The service was great and so was the ambience. Would highly recommend people to visit this place
Dum Pukht is a true gem! We started with the Veg Mixed Grill, and the star was definitely the Paneer ke Gugule—absolutely delicious. The Paneer Tikka Masala and Khoya Kaju Curry were rich and flavorful, and the Chicken Dum-Pukht Biryani was perfectly spiced. The breads, especially the soft Garlic Naan and Methi Naan, were excellent. Prakash, our server, made the experience even better with his warm and attentive service. Highly recommend!
Had the pleasure of dining in this wonderful Indian restaurant for the first time, located along Denison and Woodbine. The staff were very friendly and attentive, and the food was served hot, fresh and at a timely manner. The restaurant was well maintained and clean, and enjoyed the time I was there immensely. I told my girlfriend and friends about it already, and look forward to visiting again soon. As an added bonus: I am extremely impressed with their takeout presentation. Never seen dedication in food preparation done this way before. Love it.
I have been to Dum Pukht twice so far - once for lunch and the next time for a late night dinner with friends, and have to admit that both the times the food - quality, taste and presentation was amazing. Service was wonderful too! Our server was very friendly and courteous. The best part was the Rasmalai experience… will highly recommend! This is a great celebration worthy place if you love Indian food..
An innovative approach to serving basic Indian cuisine doesnt need dark and dull interior. As a fine dining restaurant, the restaurant disappointed us on various occasions. Although the soup was nice, but the instructions of serving noodles on the side werent followed. The sizzling platter of appetizers just had 2 pieces each of the food listed, making it not enough for 4 of us share. Lastly the ambience is expected to be niche like many of their counter parts such as Tamarind or Adrak, however it wasnt. Low lighting, just a small mushroom on the table, failing to illuminate the small table, not able to see what being served, or eaten. The cherry on the cake was the flashing Disco lights that they start after a certain point in night, just flashing around and hitting your eyes. Overall, not recommended for a date or a special occasion.
All food items were over spiced and no taste. Would not recommend it. Food
This place is just great food is fantastic, service is great and atmosphere is nice
Booked a reservation for today for my Sons birthday dinner Was greeted and seated right away and our friendly server was Kalyan He was very friendly and polite Service was great and fast Food was very delicious and flavourful Would definitely come back again!!!!
The chaat that came with the live chaat experience tasted atrocious. Yogurt was frozen with liquid nitrogen and it just ruined the dish. It was not worth $24. The khadai paneer had little paneer in it but tasted alright. The prices were too high for mediocre tasting food that was also small in portion sizes. Atmosphere was nice and servers were nice though.
Food was so less and too much masala poured. Stomach went bad , paneer was so tight. And prices were so on the sky felt like looted.
If you like biriyani and Mughal cuisine, this is the place for you. I personally found Garlic naan and Kadai chicken to be extraordinary, highly recommending this place for an amazing vibe and atmosphere along with Bollywood songs. Kalyan Boses service was amazing too. I did another visit for my 3rd wedding anniversary and as usual this restaurant would never disappoint us. The guy from Himachal/Kuwait have given extraordinary service. Extremely good food and smoky lightning vibe is the usp for this restaurant. This time the amazing chicken platter surprised me! Highly recommended!!!
Atmosphere and service was great but the food to price ratio : ! Dont even ask the bill they gave and the low quantity plus it was so much filled with extra masalas , i could easily taste the ready made masala box poured into the curry.
Amazing service, great looking presentation and delicious food. Samosas are awesome! Food
Omg everything it was nice so much delicious and are guys service too respect Thank u Food
Dum Phukt is an absolute gem! From the moment you step in, the ambiance is warm and inviting, setting the perfect backdrop for an incredible dining experience. The gravies are rich and beautifully spiced, elevating each dish to another level. Whether you re in the mood for something spicy or a bit milder, their menu caters to every palate. As someone who follows a vegan diet, I truly appreciate their extensive options. It s refreshing to find a place that offers both vegan choices and meals without onion or garlic, ensuring everyone can enjoy a delicious meal without compromise. The staff is attentive and knowledgeable, always ready to recommend dishes based on your preferences. I highly recommend trying their signature gravies and a few of the Chinese specialties you won t be disappointed!
Best food and best customer service.
Average experience. The chaat was good. Dum Pukht Chicken was okay. But vindaloo lamb was dry and tough.
Amazing ambiance, I absolutely loved it. GK did a really great job and made our dinner one of the memorable......
Great Ambience, great food, off the charts fancy dessert, were definitely going back.
Celebrated my in-laws 50th wedding anniversary at Dum Pukht. Great food, very personalized service and Gaurav the manager was very accommodating and made the experience very memorable.
The food quality is below average, and the prices are high. We might explore other options, as it doesnt feel worth the cost here.
GK WAS SO SWEET. Gk deseve 100***, Great food, beautiful ambience. Very professional.
We ordered 2 dishes and an appetizer, The presentation was good and the food was flavorful.
Excellent food and magnificent service by all . Special thanks to Mr. Kalyan( manager) who is an amazing host and a humble personality. Would definitely comeback and recommend to visit. Vegetarian options: Almost all famous veg Indian dishes are available. Would recommend malai kofta to try which is outstanding.
The ambience is good and the food is above average. The food was tasty but nothing extra ordinary.
Great ambiance, great food, great service . Everyone was nice and inviting
Good food and seating arrangement. The biryani was the best I have had in GTA
Loved the ambience and the food is of top order
The place was empty. The food was ok and it didnt justify high prices !
Food was delicious and tasty. Garlic naan was soft and good. Must try Cheese butter masala and paneer tikka.
Not worth the money, just a restaurant with fine dining ambinese, but worthless food, there much better food elsewhere
The foods taste and quality are outstanding, and the service is excellent.
Excellent service and food was incredible!
Excellent - just keep at it . One of the best places for Indian food
I have had the take out from this restaurant many times. The food was always decent. I have not been for a few years but suggested to a colleague we go for a business dinner. It was geographically convenient. The restaurant was nice with great chairs. The food came and was better than I remembered. We ordered 6 dishes and all were very good. I have been all over the GTA for Indian food and this was one of the best dinners. The food was not as heavy as some Indian food can be.
Finish was wonderful!! Food was awesome!! Everything tasted so good. Spice level was perfect. Staff was very friendly. We will definitely visit this place again.
Great place. Food was good. Chinmay was a great host.
Was first time here on a lunch date and I must say the place is very spacious and the food menu is very exhaustive with great taste. The restrooms were super clean with cool mist which was the best part. Lmao. I know this sounds weird but trust me. Food tasted really good and service was quick. Best or preferred seating i would recommend is upper deck or platform booth seats that are much more spacious and comfortable. They also have a full bar. I am confident their dinner menu and place is Lit.
yesterday it was my birthday and we came here and it was great. ambience was great , on top of that The service was really good. Also, they had us cake for the birthday and they didnt charge us for that so which was the cherry on the cake.
I loved the atmosphere there was good vibe we first wanted to dine in but then we took the food out. I would say it s expensive taste is much of an intercontinental flavour nit the authentic one. 3 items were worth 100 dollars
Yet another gem! The ambience is lovely and food is super amazing! Gobi 65 - 10/10 Chicken hariyali - 10/10 Tandoori chicken - 10/10 Malai chicken - 9/10 Chicken saag - 10/10 Vegetable pulav - 10/10 Naan is amazing Chinmay was extremely helpful with the food, service & also accommodated a cake as we were celebrating!! Will definitely visit to try more!!
3rd time in a month. And we never go to Indian restaurants that many times in a month because of how saturated most are. This one is special! From veggie to meat dish, this has to be the biggest hidden gem ever. Love it! Food
Spent our aftenoon here with my family. Worth every penny! Vegetarian options: A family of 6. Food : 5/5 |
Good food and very good service. A surprising find for a late dinner.. will recommend coming here at least once and try any of their experiences, like he gulab Jamun, etc..
The food was ok not spicy at all, the service was friendly, and the prices are high. The Dum moong daal halwa was good. The Mali kofta , however, lacked flavour and could be improved. The staff was polite and welcoming.
I honestly found the food to be ok. I have had better North Indian food in Canada, since it s a fine dining restaurant I was expecting a better experience. We ordered Hara bhara kabab which was good as a starter as our waiter didn t take the order of Live chaat. Service was good but paneer tikka masala and makai kofta which were chefs special tasted more like elaichi which made it somewhat bitter aftertaste and were not spicy. Tandoori roti, lacha parantha and Moong daal halwa were ok. But if you are into true North Indian style cuisine, do think before visiting Dum Pukht as price is on a higher side.
Dum Pukht is your one stop for satisfying your late night Indian food cravings. Afterall, they are open until 6am! We enjoyed a variety of delicious Indian dishes but if you come here you must try their Dum-Pukht Biryani, which is what they are known for! Aesthetics, presentation, taste, flavour, smell, its all there! Their garlic naan paired with their Rogan Josh was also one of our favourites. The lamb meat was just so tender and the sauce was just perfection in flavour. Dont skip out on ordering drinks or dessert either. They have an extensive menu for both but we went with the classics, mango lassi to start and gulab jamun to end our meal. Feeling adventurous, we also tried one of their popular mocktails, the Indian style lime soda, which proved to be both an interesting and unique compliment to our Indian feast.

One of the best Indian restaurants in Markham. Great service and food. One of my go-to places after midnight for quick snacks and meals.
Food was amazing, the service was outstanding
awesome yummy biryani and onion parantha
Excellent everything specially the manager at the counter - food was awesome , presentation excellent.
Delicious food. Masala papad was the best. They should add in the menu. The Biryani was very well made and served.
Amazing food, and amazing customer service a Must try place for everyone who loves Indian cuisine
We got the rara chicken, dal makhni , pindi and the vegetable dum biryani which were all great. The vegetable dum biryani arrived fresh in a clay pot sealed with dough which was very impressive. The pindi lacked some flavour but wasn t terrible. The waiter who brought it to us opened it and set it aside for our serving. We were more impressed with the quality of service. Our water was always filled, they gave us a small cake to celebrate a birthday and even packed out leftovers for us.
I love lamb biryani the most. The food quality is consistently good. Request- Please open a branch in Mississauga. Food
The best place for authentic delicious Indian food.
Best indian food and open late!
Great service and food is amazing. We came from brampton to try this restaurant, no regrets. Great atmosphere and dj made our night more memorable. Please do come if you want to try different kind of taste with amazing atmosphere.
We went one week ago late night and it was such a nice experience as very nice ambience and food and specially our Server GK he was very nice with us and told about delicious dishes according everyone choice.
Indian fine dining. Dun Pukht offers refined authentic dishes with balanced spices. The Biryani rice was aromatic, flavors are rich and sophisticated. Elegant ambiance, impeccable attentive service.
Great food and service. Convenient hours. Floors a bit slippery for some reason, not sure if its the material or what they are using to clean them. Still 5 stars, will be back. Mutton Biryani is the best around.
Special the oakra
Great service by GK! Helped us with lots of dishes! Tandoori platter was amazing! Biryani Dum Phuket is a must! Helped organise a surprise bday! Would come again! Vegetarian options: Paneer and cashew curry was great!
Live Gulab Jamun experience is to die for here.
I am so happy I found Dum Phukt Indian Restaurant on my first day in Canada! It has been my favorite fine dining spot ever since. Ive tried almost every Indian restaurant in the area, but this one is the best. After COVID, I noticed that the food and service werent as good, which was disappointing. But now, they are back and better than ever! The food is so delicious and full of great flavors again. I also love their packaging; its really impressive! It makes every meal feel special. If you want a great dining experience, Dum Phukt is the place to go. They have really improved, and I give them 10 stars for their amazing food and service! I cant wait to visit and order again
I had a wonderful dining experience! The appetizers and main course were delightful, with an authentic Indian taste that truly impressed me. I particularly enjoyed the tandoori roti with butter, vegetable jalfrezi, and methi mutter malai. The service was excellent, and Pavan s outstanding attention made our meal even more enjoyable. Thank you, Pavan, for making our visit memorable!
I ve been Here Twice and I went home happy both times after having the good food.
Very bad food. I find the hair from food I called them to replace it but respond was very bad.
Food was so good. Must go and try it. It s an expensive a bit but that s fine if they are providing good food.
What a great place. The food is fantastic and the service is great. Vegetarian options: The menu has à long list of végétarien meals. Parking: Many parking spaces available
Best Aesthetic & Stunning Indian Cuisine spot in Markham, Ontario. It s the best option for a spectacular and wow factor for all the gatherings. From aesthetic interiors, fab Bollywood DJ vibes, fantastic dishes, Royal serving style and experience is just speechless I tried an array of appetisers (Tandoori Momos), Mains (Malai Kofta), Breads (Garlic Naan & Onion Kulcha), Veg Biryani, Mocktail (Berry Caprivoska), Desserts (Gulab Jamun, Kesar Rasmalai, Kulfi Falooda). Definitely coming back here
Love the vibe and on top of it service is best specially our favourite Pawan He always make sure everything is perfect for me and my husband. Dumphukt is home food for us and Pawan is cherry on top . He is Gem in Dumfukt Food : 5/5
Amazing food, great ambiance! I loved the chicken tikka and the drinks were so delicious.
This place is a gem. You all gotta try their gulab jamun and curries. I totally enjoyed the ambiance as well, the interiors are so pretty!!
Vegetarian options: I love their palak paneer. The best weve had here. Food
One of the best fine diners I have been to in GTA. The service and the food was top tier. Their presentation was just amazing. I came here with my friends for dinner and they had bollywood night after 11. It was so amazing we stayed here 12:30 and had the best time ever. These was not a single thing that I did not like here. Everything was absolutely delicious. Plus one more star because they seeve halal food
Worst dine in experience. Songs were played at a very loud volume. Family restaurant yet no cooperation, people can t talk with each other. Please avoid this restaurant at all costs. Looks like a red light area. Staff really not accommodating at all
Very bad experience with service. Its Saturday night which is club night and i understand but there was nobody dancing or vibing we were 7 people and we requested to turn music down a little. They straight rudely said no. It was very very annoying and wasn t able to place order or talk to friends without shouting twice. Not at all good service or any kind of understanding. I came here with alot of hopes as its been legacy and i have been to other locations. But this is total disappointment. Nothing to food as i didn t experience but it kills the hunger. Hopefully it helps to others who is looking for quality time with friends and family.
The food was so so average and the prices are so high.Chicken pakora is an instant regret,Chilly Chicken was so raw and quantity is a joke .So disappointed. Birthday celebration gone wrong. Will never ever come back. First time and last time here.
Visited this place while was on trip to Canada. Nice Indian cuisine restaurant with good seating and ambiance. Only thing is food is bit costly as per the area and food portion size is less as compared to other restaurants. Taste is good and service was fast.
Taste wise food is really good but it s disappointing in quantity, and for service they are very fast, they take plates before you finish food.
Very disappointed with food and staff.
We went at the restaurant for dinner . Amazing food , very well mannered staff. Service was really quick.nice ambiance. Clean washrooms. Great experience. Love to go there again. Highly recommended. Vegetarian options: All the veg dishes we ordered was great.
Absolutely amazing and I am a well travelled connoisseur of Indian cuisine.
This place will always be my top recommendation whenever someone asks me for a good restaurant. We had the best dining experience. The food was so amazing and omg the Gulab Jamun was literally cherry on top. Staff is also so sweet.
Dum Pukht offers an extraordinary dining experience with its exquisite Indian cuisine. The flavors are rich, authentic, and meticulously prepared, making each dish a delightful journey for the taste buds. A special mention goes to the staff members, Parkash and Gaurav, who served us with exceptional care and professionalism. Their attentiveness and warm hospitality added significantly to our wonderful evening. Their recommendations were spot on, and they ensured that every aspect of our meal was perfect. Highly recommended for anyone looking to indulge in a memorable Indian culinary experience!
Really good food and service. Love the live DJ and disco mood, really party vibe. Yummy food and amazing staff will definitely come back. Thanks Prakash!
great staff, amazing ambiance, and you can never go wrong with the food. Also, they are open overnight, so they are a good spot for late night cravings.
Too Bad Taste !! Not going back again, not even suggesting my friends ever
Vegetarian options: Even vegetarian options are delicious Parking: It has good 20/25 car parking lot Food : 5/5 |
Too costly
Waste of money! Big disappointment.
Amazing Food and Ambience.Must visit place for Dine in Experience Vegetarian options: They have good choice for vegetarian food Food : 5/5 |
Serious desi food. All amazing especially the biryani that comes in a pot The lamb dish was superb Food
Nice place to eat with family and friends.
We had a wonderful dining experience tonight, thanks to our waiter, Prakash. His service was impeccable attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly. Prakash made excellent menu recommendations and ensured our meal was perfect. We truly appreciated his professionalism and warmth. Thank you, Prakash, for making our evening special!
Nice place and food was on dot
This place delivers a true taste of India with its rich, aromatic dishes. The butter chicken and naan are standout items, bursting with flavor. The restaurants clean, modern decor and attentive service make it a top choice for Indian cuisine lovers. GK service is just amazing:)
First time in what I feel is a proper Indian restaurant, great service, great experience, great food.
We visited there so many times but on this Friday they were having a party and we call them before coming when I went there the music was so loud even the person was not able to take the order we have to write and show them I tired to ask them if they can lower the volume little bit but they refused Although, there food was good I love there gobi 65 and dum biryani that just be must try Vegetarian options: A lot of options for vegetarian Parking: In front and side of there restaurant
The best Indian food Ive ever had. Incredibly fresh, flavorful and delicious. Cozy atmosphere, very clean, excellent service. My wife, brother in-law and me had a great experience. Thank you for the lovely meal!
First time there felt better than the second and so on. Definitely a place to go if you want a 24 hour place. But the price and quality does not really match. Youre mostly paying for the convenience of eating there at 4am I think. 2 dishes plus naan and a drink was $100.... Food
Food was really good and tasty. Service was really good too. It was my first time there and not my last. Food : 5/5
The name resembles a famous restaurant in New Delhi, India. The name should give a hint that the food served is will be spiced up properly, and well cooked; primarily Mughlai and Northern Indian. I have dine-in, picked-up and also got it delivered via Uber Eats. Pick-up and Delivery has been really good. The quality of packing is fantastic, it ensures the food delivered will be hot even if it late by a few mins. I have not been disappointed with their packing and it has been consistent for a while,...one request would be to invest in more sustainable packing. Dine-in gets busy towards the peak hours, there might be some wait during peak lunch and dinner hours. The restaurant is open late, and has rush over the weekends. The staff is polite and makes an effort on providing quality service. The ambience is a bit on darker side, so if you are with babies/kids who dont prefer too low lights - then it might be an issue. The food quality, cooking and taste is pretty consistent. The spice level is on regular side, which is good as they dont serve only to America/Canadian tastes unlike some other restaurants in the area. I would recommend trying the Dal Makahni, Fish Tikka, Chat and breads. The quantity of Biryani is bit small and more towards a southern side. Deserts are alright. Cocktails are basic...it is served with style. I have had issues with kebabs and tikka (mostly chicken), in some cases the it was under cooked, which is unlike what you would expect from a Mughlai (usually well-done). Overall, this is a must visit if you are in the vicinity. I have not been disappointed with the food quality and taste, I have ordered many times...
It s so disappointing I ordered 2 items online and they just delivered me only 1 item they forgot to give my second order and even though they did mistake they were not accepting that they did it their manager Gaurav was not even a listening to me and arguing with me that it s not their mistake and then i have to reorder food and when i got my food it was so cold and not even fresh I ll never order food from this restaurant anymore and I ll never suggest this restaurant to any of my friends and relatives
Everything was just phenomenal. The food, the vibe, the ambience, the presentation.....set my standards higher. I went with my cousins and family and had a great time together
The service was ok but the tomato soup was a big disappointment for me. Could see oil all over the soup. Had ordered it for my little one but see this didn t feel like giving it to her. They should not rush in giving the food if it is not prepared properly. I felt like I was eating some main course curry instead of soup.
Convenient location and plenty of parking. Deeeelicious Dishes mouth watering indeed, including a bar serving alcohol.
Great service from Prakash. Food is amazing. Beautiful atmosphere. Highly recommend the Live Chaat Experience.
What a lovely place! The service was amazing... especially from Prakash! The food is outstanding and sooo delicious. I highly recommend this dining experience. Im definitely going back! Food
This is the first time we received Bad Paneer in Paneer Tikka Masala. All other items were good. Paneer tasted stale in our takeout order.
Vegetarian options: I had the veg option lunch special with paneer tikka masala . Proportions were very good and sufficient for one person. I thank services from Vinish. Food
Excellent service and food! Vinish was a great host.
Great place for having nice lunch. I had Lunch Special. Decent quantity. Vinish is amazing host.
Great food and lunch portions were very filling. Would recommend to anyone coming for a work/team event for lunch. Vinish was a fantastic host
Dum Pukht is a great place for Indian food. Vinish took good care of us.
Very good chicken Masala lunch special Vinish provided good service Recommended dishes
Nice , food and good service. We liked chicken Tikka and dum biryani. It was very tasty and authentic
There were 16 of us in total: 10 adults and 6 kids, with an average age of 10. We all enjoyed the food immensely until we received the bill, which totaled 680. Despite two adults having a beer each, I found the final amount exorbitant.Next time I will think 10 times before coming here .
Worst experience! I heard so much about this restaurant so I went there on my birthday with my friends. I had a very disappointing experience. Staff had horrible attitude towards us. They wouldn t even let me finish ordering and walked away a few times. And the quantity of food was not even sufficient for 1 person. We were just 4 people and while paying the bill, they already added gratuity without our consent. We were gonna tip, but they added 18% gratuity which was a lot considering their services and behaviour towards us. Never visiting this place again!
The food was bland. The attendant suggested us mixed veg platter. It was completely tasteless. Main course was sweet in taste. The only good thing was their cheese naan. Overall, experience was not at all worth the price.
I visited with my family, but the staffs attitude was absolutely dreadful. When we asked for suggestions, their responses were curt and unhelpful, as if they were being forced to work and take our order. It was clear they had no interest in providing good service. The food was mediocre at best, but the overall experience was severely tarnished by the poor service.
Weve been there celebrating occasions regularly and enjoy their delicious food. Highly recommended if you havent been. From Tandoor dishes curries and veg options to the tandoori naans and rotis, all superb. My favorites are Rara mutton or chicken and the lamb biryani. Vegetarian options: Good variety of Veg options from the Tandoor to Curries and daals.
Great experience. We ordered take out but the packaging kept food so warm and the containers are soo good quality. Awesome overall
I ve been ordering from this place for many years Tonight I went there to pickup my food personally and let me tell you, The service/ presentation/ food was amaaazing. They made my birthday special best Indian food in town Food : 5/5 |
Outstanding service and delicious food Would recommend 100% try for sure Food
Always a pleasure to dine at our favourite restaurant Dum Pukht. Keep up the great work Chandan and team (Vinish, Gaurav/GK, and others).
Had biryani, for me it was more like a pulao. I was expecting Hyderabadi biryani when they mention Dum biryani, it wasnt. Food was tasty though.
We had over 20 guests for dinner at this particular location. The food was delicious and very tasty. We order lamb briyani, shrimp briyani, chicken briyani and veg briyani. The curry we ordered was butter chicken, panner, shrimp curry and fish curry with butter naan. It was absolutely amazing. I would definitely back for more and recommendto family and friends. Dont forget to complete the meal with the mango Lassi . Quick and prompt food service. The price point is a little higher than outside competitors. Thank you DUM PUKHT !!!
Great service. Great food. Dessert presentation and the way it was served was out of this world. Normally do not eat desert but this was something special.
Very nice packing of food. I orderd online and I received it in excellent organized manner.
If you re looking to wow your friends and family with phenomenal presentation, check out Dum Pukht. I visited this location as part of an IG collaboration and tried their: - Chicken Biryani - Live Chaat Experience - Butter Chicken - Chocolate Mousse Cake - Mojito All of their drinks are served in a basket of flowers with sparklers. Another notable experience is the live chaat, where the chaat is made before your eyes using liquid nitrogen. I liked that the flame beneath the biryani kept it nice and warm throughout our meal. The dessert was my absolute favourite and I highlighted recommend trying jt. The texture is so light with a crispy caramelized layer on top. Overall, this is a great spot to impress your friends and family and will be a memorable experience. Check out my IG page @aikn.vlogs to see a reel filmed at this location.
Everything is super nice
Food was good, service was friendly and prices were reasonable. Would recommend this restaurant for Indian food if youre in the area. Our favourite was the Khatti Meethi Gobi which tastes best as soon as it is served, piping hot and crispy. The rara Mutton was also delicious and had a good balance of minced meat and mutton pieces. The dum pukht chicken Biryani was good. The chicken Tikka was okay, was lacking in flavour and could have been better. Servers were courteous and friendly.
On May 6th, I visited Dum Pukht and opted for the Vegetable Biryani. While the taste was satisfactory, upon unpacking the leftovers at home, I was startled to find a small cockroach in the biryani. This experience was quite shocking and left me deeply disappointed with the overall service quality.
Dum Pukht restaurant is not only a culinary gem but also a haven for night owls, as it stays open till 6 am. Dum Pukht offers a delightful culinary experience with its flavorful dishes like the chicken fried Schezwan and chicken Manchurian gravy, hakka style. The burst of flavors in every bite is truly satisfying. The staffs friendly demeanor adds to the welcoming atmosphere, making dining here a pleasure. Coupled with a nice ambiance, its a must-visit for those craving delicious Chinese and Indian cuisine. Parking: There is sufficient free parking for restaurant customers.
Great service and delicious food!
Dum pukht made me feel like a dumb phukt lol Probably the worst seating in the history of seating. Mediocre service and food. DONT order the tandoori chicken or don t even go at all. Food : 2/5
Food was good but service is not upto the mark. Waiting time for food was too long even on slow days.
Amazing place to visit. Great good, very friendly staff, and amazing service. The wait staff visit your table often to refill your glasses and ask if you need anything. The food tastes really good!
10/10 for service, presentation, flavour. Didnt know to make a reservation but was sat within 15mins. Everything was incredible. Food
Came for my anniversary and had a great time. The food was awesome and highly recommend the Paan Martini. Most importantly was the service, Gaurav was an amazing host! He provided great recommendatoons, shared some history behind the name of the restaurant and described the dishes we chose. He really made the experience extra special. Thank you Gaurav!
Love this place. First visit. Just punched in Indian food to google and it was voted best in area. Im in Southern Ontario visiting from Thunder Bay. Live Indian food and this is the best ive tasted.
This Indian restaurant in Markham is an absolute gem! The flavors are incredible, the service is top-notch, and the ambiance is cozy. We had the pleasure of being served by GK. He was attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was exceptional.
Upon reaching our seat, the waiter took our orders. My family and I had made reservations. He began by asking us to view the appetizers and meals and asking what we would like to drink. After placing food and drink orders, we waited for around forty-five minutes. None of the beverages four mango lassis, one apple juice, and two masala chai tea arrived at our table. Furthermore, none of the staff followed up to see if we needed anything further after the food was delivered. Above all, there was absolutely no booster seat available for my child. It is not advised to take children under three because of the lack of seats this makes it a terrible Dine-in experience. I should also mention that, because we are a family of seven, the restaurant changed our reservation from the restaurant to the banquet. I should also mention that you should not undervalue the prestige that comes with the banquet hall; its all a matter of attitude, and the customer service is far poorer. There were two servers assigned to the entire fifty-person dinner hall.
Beautiful restaurant, the food was so good and well presented also the service was amazing by Mr Vinish who explained all the type of food and meats and also suggested some dishes, he s so friendly, so professional and made our dining experience so special. Thank you again, we will be back. Sido Food
I ordered the food from Uber there is a guy here who works been there few times I remember his voice the guy is so rude. Recently I ordered the food from Uber and I tried to mention my instructions as we have the right to inform as we are paying what to eat and what level of spice we need. I was allergic to some ingredients so I mentioned that the guy called he is bald hair and wear spects he is really rude to customer said that we can t do this for u the food instructions won t be not followed if u want to cancel so cancel and when I ask him what kind of language you are using and how can you speak he said this is the way you can go and call the manager so what you want as if he don t care. This is not the restaurant where we are suppose to eat totally bad service and I was organising the party here for my birthday but I will cancel it now and strictly don t recommend this kind of restaurant
Great atmosphere.
We went on Friday May 17. Our main server Vinish was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the dishes. He was a very good representative of this resto. Food quality and presentation was excellent . The service was a bit slow at the beginning but certainly improved.
Great Biryani with veg opition and nice presentation of serving biryani.. check it out .. Worth it .. appreciate the overall ambience and hospitality service . Chicken Sampler was Yummy Good restaurant in nearby vicinity of Markham GTA. Thanks .. will definitely visit again for live music . Vegetarian options: Veg Dum Pukht is the one you all should try
Such a great place to have food. Staff are so sweet and quick. Really recommend this place. Special mention to Prakash Sir for the great service.
Best services. Mr. Prakash was so nice to us. The ambience was so pleasant. Happy place for families to dine in. We tried virgin mojito, suggested by Prakash was so good, must try .
Nice place
Sizzler was amazing
Exceptional Service by Gaurav, was treated with outmost comfort, gonna visit soon with whole family
Dum Pukht offers an exquisite culinary experience that surpasses expectations. From the moment you step in, the ambiance sets the stage for a memorable dining affair. The menu boasts a tantalizing array of dishes, each expertly prepared with authentic flavors and impeccable presentation. The highlight, undoubtedly, is their signature dum pukht cooking technique, which infuses every dish with rich, aromatic flavors. The kebabs are succulent, the biryanis are fragrant, and the curries are velvety smooth. The attention to detail in both taste and presentation is commendable. The staff is attentive and knowledgeable, adding to the overall dining experience. Whether youre a connoisseur of Indian cuisine or simply seeking an exceptional dining experience, Dum Pukht is sure to leave a lasting impression.
Everything is so expensive here, its not worth paying $20 for 1 Sabji and $4 for a coke can. Other restaurants like Shaas, Ishq charges less and provides better taste and quantity. Plus all the male staff has weird attitude, they never respond to anything nicely. I will not come here again!
Food was delicious, service excellent, a hidden gem! Will definitely return and try other dishes.
Love the food and service
Great food and excellent service. The staff and owner go the extra mile to make it a great dining experience Vegetarian options: There are plenty of delicious vegetarian options to choose from. Kid-friendliness: Yes Wheelchair accessibility: Yes
Gaurav and vinish were our server The best service in toronto Truly delighful Food : 5/5
What a wonderful evening thanks to the amazing hospitality by Mr. Vinish and his team at Dum Pukht. It s very difficult to say whether the food was world class or the hospitality and warmth by Mr. Vinish. The best restaurant in Ontario
Our waiter, Prakash, made our dining experience truly special. He was friendly and professional and made sure we had everything we needed. The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was perfect. Well be back for more, and I would love to be served by him again. I highly recommend him!
Dum Pukht is hands down the best Indian restaurant Ive ever been to in Markham! The food was incredible and authentic, every dish we ordered was bursting with unique flavours and cooked to perfection. The staff were so friendly and attentive, walking us through the menu and providing recommendations based on our preference. The Dum-Pukht Biryani is a must-order! Overall, it was an unforgettable dining experience, and I cant wait to go back!
Great dining experience! The food was delicious. I especially loved the presentation of the dishes. So fun and interactive.
Service was fast and efficient, staff was friendly, and food was delicious. My favourite was the butter chicken and samosa. This place was packed on a Saturday evening and I definitely understand why. The atmosphere here was nice as well.
Very average food. Safe bet to only order basic butter chicken and other options like that
Excellent meal
Such a great authentic indian spot, the atmosphere was amazing, customer service is attentive, and the food was tasty! My faves were definitely the chicken tikka masala and the garlic naan! We also got the lamb biryani, the lamb was super tender, highly recommend! Full review on instagram @tiff.eatz
This place is amazing! The service was spectacular, the food was there in less than 5 mins!! That is by far the fastest time I ve been served in a restaurant! Not to mention, it tasted spectacular! The dessert was also fancy and yummy. The decor was also beautiful!
Nice place
The Food was nice. The service was ok. Also, its open late nights. Pro tip- while paying please take a check of the bill, as they provide the bill with added gratuity. So if u are tipping that would be an additional tip we ended up giving a $cad 35 in a tip. And realized it after the payment. Food
The ambience of this place is really good. Our server, Prakash was very helpful in recommending our order and it didnt disappoint. We had ordered chicken tikka, soya chaap, dum pukht biryani, achaari paneer and butter naan. For dessert we had ordered nest rasmalai and kheer. The rasmalai was mouth watering and tasty but I cannot say the same for kheer. In mocktails, Black pearl tasted well. One can try it out. The food presentation was amazing. Its a bit on the expensive side but you can visit for the ambience and service. They say its a halal service but not sure about it.
Everything is just best here. Ambiance, food, customers service presentation. Top notch.
Highly recommend Dum Phukt as a vegetarian. Great variety in food and the taste is amazing. My personal recommendation for main course would be to order the Kaju Makhana Ki Subzi (request it to be spicy). Special shoutout to Gaurav who has made our visit exceptional each visit with his friendliness and great attention to detail. Thanks again Gaurav, will be back soon!
I ordered live chaat experience this dish seemed very fancy at the beginning. The server was kind enough to explain the dish. At the start the base of the chat was with a papad. Chaat and papad have no relation ever. There was a fancy addition of liquid nitrogen curd, which made the chat feel -40 degree celsius after the very first bite. And at the end the live chaat was decorated with ginger juliennes. The taste of the fancy liquid nitrogen curd chaat with papad was a disaster to my taste buds. The food was average.
Had been yesterday to celebrate my son s birthday, great food, good service and well recognized customers birthdays, keep it up dum pukht management. Makes us choose this place as our first choice for celebrating occasions.
We made reservation for 10 ppl at midnight on a Friday and we were treated very well by the waiter Gaurav Rana who was amazing. He served us and our family friends from NY who are picky with food, and they were very pleased. They even brought us requests that were not on the menu. They accommodated my vegetarian family friends very well, food was amazing and hot, and we love the fact that they are open until 6:00 AM Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian options especially the okra and daal. Highly recommend.
Nice atmosphere and friendly service.
