The place looks amazing and inside the atmosphere feels fresh and clean even though the area has old buildings. The interest in cleanliness is appreciated, the food was also incredible. We tried the mixed plate and were not disappointed. I recommend the place 100%, they are doing excellent.
I really love there warm welcomed. Food was very delicious and I will come here again🥰🥰
The service was amazing! The lady at the front was very personable, efficient, and professional. We had a lovely discussion about the food and about our thoughts on milk. She also offered us a house made tea that was very delicate and fragrant. The food was heavenly and I’d love to take my roommate and relatives here to eat! I’m usually a very picky person due to texture and flavour sensitivities but I had no problems with eating my meal at all! The restaurant is very beautiful and cleanly, the music and the atmosphere of the restaurant is exquisite and melds perfectly with the food! If I could only eat at one restaurant for the rest of my life, it would be this one!
It's going to be a long review, so thanks for reading in advance. So we were coming back from Muskoka to Toronto on 20 Oct 2024. We were super hungry, so we planned not to wait to reach toronto and have something on the way. So, we chose this restaurant which by looks was looking great authentic indian place to have dinner. So we entered the restaurant around 8 pm. Stood at the front counter for a while, waiting for someone so that we can ask for a table. (Though it wasn't busy at all, only 2 people were eating before us). After we got the table. We waited for the person to take our order for another, like 15 minutes, because she was running inside out without even seeing us that we were ready to order. Finally, she came to us smiling saying "Sorry it's just busy at the back because we are closing." Which was weird because the timing says it closes at 10 pm, and it was just 8.20pm yet. I asked the same to her , and she smiled and said "oh we try to wrap up early so that we can be out by 10 pm." Weird again because as far as I know, closing time is until the restaurant takes the order, and after that, they close the kitchen. And normally the place closes after the customers are done( which is about an hour more normally). NEVERMIND, We placed our order, which was Chowmein, Panneer butter masala, and 2 rotis. We don't mind waiting for the preparation time as we prefer it to be fresh. However, it wasn't that much another 15 minutes, and we got the order. But, Chowmein with paneer butter masala. While ordering, I told the girl to bring the chowmein only at first, but she brought the Paneer butter masala as well, which was sitting there until we finished the chowmein. Coming to the chowmein, it had no salt at all. I mean, completely without salt as the chef forgot to put salt, or maybe they were out of salt during preparation. So we had to use paneer butter masala's gravy with chowmein to get some of the salty flavor. Maybe that's why she brought it with the chowmein so that as good customers, we adjust on our own( smart girl). Again, 15 - 20 minutes of wait, and we finally got our 2 tandoori Roti's which were thick in dough as someone tried making them for the first time( Even I made better rotis when I learned it first). Honestly, that was the time I thought of writing a review because up until then, we were adjusting. The Rotis were too thick and uncooked. After eating just 2 pieces of it, I could feel the unclooked flour that started to stick in. Literally, we stopped eating and decided to leave. The staff didn't even ask us how the food was and why we were leaving without even eating the food. Instead, quarreling sounds were coming from the back(probably from the kitchen) as they were fighting about something or maybe simply unhappy about us who came 2 hours before closing time. A friendly advice for the owner of this restaurant is that please get new staff members including chef and also change the timings on google from 10 to 9 so that the customer knows its closing time and your staff can be out before 10pm as they expect.
Marigold in Orillia just went top 5 for us, maybe even top 3. Absolutely delicious from start to finish. Warm atmosphere, sweet service, and fabulous food. Highly recommend! Offering an amazing variety of Indian, Thai, and Chinese cuisine, Marigold simply does it right. We took our 8 year old son and he loved it. What we had: Drinks: The Bold Sip (mango, ginger, lemon, gin) Appies: -3 kinds of naan, all perfectly baked and seasoned - Chaat platter Dinner: Butter chicken with Jeera rice Plus leftovers for days. Make your way down there as soon as possible!
Went for a dine-in lunch and we were not disappointed! Super cute interior with delicious authentic Indian food. We split one of their vegetarian curries with some rice, garlic naan, and lassi. Reasonable price, lots of food per serving and really lovely service. Highly recommend as your go to spot in Orillia for Indian!
Proper North Indian Food. Thanks Chef Amar for your lovely courtesy and amazing authentic food. As you enter the restaurant, you are wowed by the beautiful colors and culture of india in the interior. Lovely ambience, comfortable seating, best indian music, warm hospotality by friendly servers and amazing authentic indian food for a reasonable price. Portion sizes are decent. Naan breads are made in-house and very fresh n tasty. Overall excellent value for money and family like treatment. Thanks so much. Will surely come again.
Such a best Indian restaurant. Not only the quality and taste of the food but also the environment is soo nice. Love it.
Excellent service and test of food
Many vegan options and the food was incredible. Simren is just so lovely and accommodating. Will be back again soon. Vegetarian options: The samosa and pakora are vegan and delicious!
Very calm environment to get a good meal. What more really needs to be said. If you want good food with good service for a good price come here.
Placed order for pickup on ubereat, and went to pick up and found restaurant locked and closed.
Amazing service and amazing food! Lots vegan and vegetarian dishes. The service is really really good here! I will be back!
Food, service, and atmosphere are superb!!
A beautiful space, open, clean. Very friendly and attentive service. The tandoori chicken is absolutely delicious!!! Highly recommended for a fun night of amazing flavours.
Delicious food and great customer service!! 10/10 Vegetarian options: Tons of delicious vegetarian options! Food : 5/5 |
I ordered delivery for $50, and while the food was good, I was disappointed that cutlery and napkins were missing despite mentioning them during order. This made it inconvenient to enjoy my meal. I hope the restaurant ensures all essentials are included in the future to improve the overall customer experience.
The food was amazing! The service exceptional. We had the thali so that we could sample multiple dishes and everything was delicious. Easy going ambience and table availability on the spot. Highly recommend.
Went for lunch with family but this restaurant doesn t offer parking & you gotta find it by yourself which is very inconvenient specially when you re driving around with family in bad weather. Guess Will never find out how good or bad food their food is. Very Disappointing experience
Food was amazing!
One of the most beautifully decorated restaurants I ve seen! Food and service was excellent
Great experience! Excellent food. Had the dal khichdi and chicken korma with naan bread. Excellent service. Nice decor, Indian music, and spotless. Will definitely come back.
Had a fantastic experience, largely thanks to the exceptional service at the front desk. From the moment I arrived, the staff greeted me with warm smiles and made me feel welcomed. The ambiance was lovely, and the food was delicious, but it was the front desk service that truly stood out. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a great meal paired with top-notch hospitality....
Service was really good. I love the place.
Outstanding food and bread. Its like being back in India and i think chief and staff was quite good. Food
Great service and food

Awesome customer service
One of best store in north which we gets kingfisher beer , Awesome customer service
Very good paneer butter masala and the naan bread is so yummy
FOOD WAS GOOD AND THE SERVICE BY SIMRAN WAS EXCELLENT
i visted last weekend this restaurant and The cozy, stylish decor and soft jazz create a relaxed, upscale vibe. The staff is attentive and knowledgeable, enhancing the overall experience. Highlights include the perfectly cooked beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. Though on the pricier side, the quality of food, ambiance, and service justify the cost. Ideal for special occasions, must-visit restaurant for food enthusiasts and anyone seeking a memorable meal and the girl whos name SIMRAN she is very polite with custmers
Ordered delivery and they forgot my rice so had nothing to eat along with my curry. The restaurant called me to let me know they forgot to send it with my order, which is great, BUT when I asked them to kindly refund the item that was missed they refused to do so. I don t understand how a business can operate with such poor service. Mediocre food. 5 Rivers on Mississaga is still the place to beat for Indian in Orillia.
Im English, I love curry, it is now our national dish but this wasnt good, even the mild curries were way too spicy, you confuse heat with flavour. I chose a mild curry and my mouth and lips were burning
Food is superb, Try the Dal tadka (yellow lentils).. Chicken Biryani , also have a cup of Masala tea its delicious..The staff is also very friendly and helpful I cant wait to go back again..
Great food!
Amazing place, nice environment, kind service and incredible food.. Im in love with her version of masala chai. Long veggie menu, many options and recommendations are certainly... Also the place is very nice for a date or meeting...
Four of us went for dinner before a show in Orillia. Restaurant wasnt very crowded, so service was quite quick. Im not sure that would be the same if the restaurant was full. The food was fantastic, certainly the best Indian food in Orillia as far as Im concerned. They have a very large menu so I cant wait to go back and try some of the other dishes.
The food was delicious, flavorful and fresh. Its a very big menu and we sampled from just the Indian food menu. The portions look smaller but were decieving as we struggled to finish everything. We liked the simple yet appealing decor and the small details like the lamp shades. The server was pleasant and helpful. The food arrived fairly fast but the restaurant wasnt too busy. We will go back again for sure!
Good quality food loved the Rogan Josh, Saag Chicken and Lamb Vindaloo oh I almost forgot got the garlic Nan was fresh and delicious
Monday night dinner meal was really good. Service was excellent although as most places were closed this place quickly got busy. Food portions were good size but sides like rice or naan seemed a bit expensive. Pad Thai & Veg Kofta curry were both tasty & filling & arrived to our table fairly quickly. Overall good experience will be back
Just finished eating the Veg Thali plate and Manchurian momos and everything was sooooooo delicious!!!!! Great value for everything and the best Indian food Ive had in this town in the past decade. Highly recommend!!!
Waited 10 minutes for a takeout menu. Only one waitress. Everyone is sharing one menu. 45 minute wait time for Biryani. No customer service. Namaste on memorial has better prices and customer service. Unfortunately I wasn t going to wait and to the drive to Namaste for a quality meal at a fair price.
Food was great but the service by the front waiter was so bad like she was ignoring me the whole time. She was cleaning the plates and didn t bother helping out! When I asked her I m ready to order she told me that there is a order before me and she has to serve them and after which keeps on doing her own thing. Service is so bad, staffs before was better. Really disappointing to see this.
Food is not good at all curries are really watery and kadai paneer tasted liked caned tomato paste with paneer, not for Indian people
Love It ,such yummy food
We have been there. It was fabulous service that we have ever had. Thanks guys for all this.

Great food as always same as all other locations
Ahh their Indian food was amazing! Chicken tikka masala Best Indian I ve had in months Please go Food : 5/5 |
The food was not authentic as it should be wasn t spicy nor had garlic but super expensive and slow service and Customer service was not a priority also food can be better and more culturally accurate. Can do a lot better if followed Indian recipes Thank you
It was an amazing experience. I tried the Momo there and they were amazing. Also visit it again with my friends there. Staff was friendly and helpful. Overall I had an amazing experience. Must recommended
So yummy and tasty momos Vegetarian options: You can have vegetarian option in most of the food Food : 5/5 |
Food was so good! Had butter chicken and paneer tikka - both amazing! Also had the pleasure of the most perfectly cooked light and fluffy basmati rice. Roti and naan were also great! Will be going again and again!
By boyfriend and I were here mid Sept. He chose the Curried Goat and I had the Saag Chicken. We paired it with a single order of basmati rice with cumin seeds. We were not disappointed! The flavours were exquisite and the portions were plentiful enough that we had food to take home. Prices were on the higher side however the food WAS excellent and the service was friendly and helpful (we asked a lot of questions about what we were ordering)
Wonderful place and Indian unique cultural decor with mouth watering food Must visit if you are in Orillia or near by. Parking: Back of the restaurant is huge municipal parking
i had amazing experience over there Vegetarian options: fresh and delicious Food : 5/5 |
Good food , good staff, environment.....
Disappointing. Ordered takeout. Butter chicken medium spice, mutter paneer and naan. Had to add rice for an extra charge - cost $98 in total. Naan was great. Butter chicken was not even medium spice but sweet - as if sweet and sour sauce had been added - did not taste like butter chicken at all. Mutter paneer was way too oily. Couldn t get a total when ordering the food as they were on a mobile and would have had to call back. Not worthy of $100 to feed three people as the portion sizes are disproportionate to the cost.
It was my third visit today and everytime I placed order for pickup. They always say that it would be ready in 10-15 mins but everytime i had to wait in restaurant for 30 mins for my pickup order. Very slow service. There is only 1 girl who s struggling everywhere. You guys really need to focus on customer service. Food tastes good and bit overpriced according to portions.
We visited today on this location. Food was good. Staff was friendly. Head chef and the girl who was in reception they both are very friendly and they provided good customer service. We will definitely come back.
Really tasty Korma and Naan!
Traditional Indian food. Very good, perfect spice. Generous portions. Restaurant is very clean. Staff is friendly. Chicken Tikka Masala and the garlic naan were amazing! We will definitely go back.
Food was so good. Staff was so nice and friendly, they even help me with the menu. All over the experience was excellent. Love to visit again.
Amazing food . So delicious and I will definitely be back again and so would you
Very good authentic food. I d 100% recommend for the people who want to try authentic Nepali/Indo Chinese cuisine.
Good food
It is the best place to have food. Food was so good and the place is great. Service was great by Aakriti and the chef and owner is so friendly. Recommended to visit!
Two thumbs up for all aspects of this new restaurant. Have been waiting for good fusion menu in Orillia. Friendly reception, clean and nice decor, and food was excellent. Butter chicken tasty tender, chunky cubes, fluffy basmati rice, and tasty pad thai with ample number of good quality shrimp. Samoosas so good - flaky pastry and finely spiced veggie filling. Try this excellent place. To person who posted complaint. Food that is served fresh takes time to prepare - 30 mins reasonable for this quality plus they are a start-up. Give them another try. Expensive? Don t you spend $20 for a burger at a local restaurant? Just sayin !
Food is good ,the flavors were well-balanced, and the dishes were prepared with great care. Every bite was a delight, and the presentation was top-notch however, I was surprised by the final bill. While I understand that taxes are a part of dining out the total amount after taxes felt a bit high compared to what I expected. Portion could be more for the curry and sabko for that price It slightly took away from the overall experience, as I felt like I paid more than I anticipated.In conclusion, the food and service were commendable, but be prepared for a higher final bill after taxes.
Great cozy place
Food was so good and staff are very friendly
The best Indian food Ive ever had.
Atmosphere was pleasant, servers were welcoming and mostly met with Chef,Amar Karki, he was friendly. And made a small talk with him, felt happy to meet Nepali chef doing great here.
Food and services was great.
Visit them the second time and it was wayyyy better compared to our first visit!! Food was delicious and presented very well!! Didn t wait too long either. Full staff this time. Servers were amazing!!Will be back ;)
We had chicken Biriyani and a lamb biriyani from Marigolds last day. The experience was excellent. The food was great, and the service was top. I am thrilled to see such good service and food from Indian restaurants in CA.
