Food was good, but we won’t be going back unfortunately. The atmosphere is so dark and dingy, bathrooms are old, and we saw a mouse run across the floor and eat rice that was dropped and not cleaned up at a nearby table. The staff were in a corner eating, we were not greeted upon arrival and they didn’t make our food until they finished eating their lunch. We should have left when we saw the mouse but felt rude at the time.
Atmosphere was meh, it was too dark. Washroom needs renovations, the doors are broken in the washroom, barely locks. Food was not great…. I ordered chicken momos and i can tell you the big disappointment i had in my face when i ate. No flavour or taste to it. Just bland…. Overall not a good experience but server was nice
Poor customer service There is no respect for the customer who walks in... Don't waste your time there...... No one takes to order 30 minutes over the phone, but She was literally busy on the phone all the time rather than attending her customers. She wouldn't even make an effort to notify the customers about the wait time. I am a regular customer and love this place... but she made me not to order here ever again... Also the tea I order was cold as ice.... had to wait extra 10 minutes to get another... 👎
The food and service here are always fantastic, therefore I usually eat here! The food they served and the way it tasted were both excellent! Fantastic at all times. Even the owner is incredibly friendly and giving. In the event that you have a craving for Indian food, I will always suggest them. Lalaji, I loved this!
Used to be great service. Been eating here for a long time but my last take out order I waited an extra 20 minutes for when nobody was in the restaurant and I received someone else’s order. Went back to re-order less than two weeks and was told only one of my items was covered. Won’t be eating there again after years of loyalty.
I'm not sure what has happened in the last 10 months ( new owner/ management/ cooks??) but I used to go on a regular last year and man is there ever a difference . There were 5 of us eating in for my mom's birthday so we ordered family style. The server was very kind but had a hard time understanding us sometimes. I asked her if the menu changed and she said she didn't know. The samosas were by far the most disappointing - we ordered two different kinds - chicken and beef ( a total of 4) we all agreed we would get better at a gas station. The shrimp pakora were good. And the curry dishes we also good ( but not quite how we remembered them) I asked for their special bread basket which had at 3-4 different style naan breads/ flavours - but the server just brought regular naan. ( which still tasted ok but I sure do miss the special basket they had) Probably won't go back unfortunately.
I wish there would be an option of 0 star. Awful and disgusting. Server neha was super rude there. My wife ordered veg momos and she said it will take about 40 mins to prepare as we have to prepare in steam. Then my wife ordered veg biryani and she(neha) said if you want to order anything you can order right now as she and other employees working there has to eat their food. We ordered veg biryani and mojitos. We got over food served after half hour and on the other hand the quantity of the biryani for a full plate was very small. It was barely enough for a single person. There were flies all over the entire table. Sugar in the mojito seems like as we were eating raw sugar. Disgusting totally disgusting!!!! Want to waste your time and burn your money definitely try them 👍🏻
I recently visited Lala Ji’s and had a mixed experience. The service from the staff was excellent; they were attentive and friendly throughout our meal. However, the food was a bit hit or miss. The gol gappe were disappointing in both quality and taste. On the positive side, the green mint sauce and pickle were flavorful, and the saag was quite good. Unfortunately, the makki ki roti was dry and lacked freshness, and it was served without white butter and gud, which would have enhanced the dish. The malai chaap was just okay, while the burger was good. The spring roll was average in both taste and quality. Overall, while the service was commendable, the food quality needs improvement to match the service. I hope they can enhance their offerings on my next visit.
Its weird, i ordered aloo tikki burger with noodles and two smosas was ok but burgers were all burning really its hard to eat i will not recommended to anyone to visit or order from here. 0 star
It not dine-in its just for online oder restaurant service is poor or less staff you have to wait for long time and If you want something you still have to wait for your turn they will not come to you no eye contact if have to shout.after serving they didnot come ask you how s everything you need something or not.such aa poor service waste of time they are focusing on online order They you guys want to go go-head and sit there like a fool
Not worth the money :)
Very tasty food , It is worth waiting for such tasty food. I like it . Advice : order food before coming.
Great customer service and delicious food
Border crossing year deux- on the road to somewhere out there, Indian spices from Lala gis- Indian cuisine will blow your mind and palate, while being kind to your wallet. The portions reflect the generous spirit you feel when you walk through the door to enjoy a meal plus 3 more if you like afternoon picnics too. Definately worth whike to put on the miles and end the day at this Special place. A man named Christian helped this American learn a little Canadian, on our way to PenTIC ton in the Canadian sun, surrounded by fruits and vines...how sublime! Be sure to wander North at some point to enjoy THIS! Merci! Canada for the Gorgoeous dreamscapes and your grapes and heavenly fruits! that uplift this ones spirit and fun! I love to pass through ... Take good care of U. T-
I ordered food from uber eats. They took an hour to prepare the order. Then the uber delivery was getting delayed again and again. So what i got was cold food.
When I first moved to Penticton, we visited 3 times in the first week! I grew up surrounded by indian food in Surrey BC and this food tastes so excellent and authentic. Huge fan of the medium spicy mango chicken curry. The samosas and pakoras are an extremely good deal -- there will be leftovers! I tried the rogan josh lamb and it was delicious but not as tender as I would have hoped. The service/atmosphere is small family vibes and authentic! Very kind people.
Come here every time I visit penticton. Great choice from the menu especially the street food section. Big portions and reasonably priced. Friendly staff Vegetarian options: Lots of veggie options
I oder channa tikki from them channa was so thick and dry and oder 2 kulcha from them only 1/4 was filled rest was empty not happy
butter chicken is amazing every time! thankyou.
Tandoori chicken, Amritsari kulcha
Smoothest butter chicken sauce Ive ever had. Naan bread is made fresh with fresh garlic. Yummy.
We came from keremwos to had indian food their food Was disgusting .the stuffing was really bad it was expired very bad smell and the waitress was very rude.
The cook inside the kitchen has a very bad attitude. I ordered some food there and was there to pick it up . I was a regular customer there but the way he is yelling on the serving girls was really bad . The owner need to have a look on the services .
Best food amazing service
Worst service ever I seen
Literally got burned bhatura s .. ruined our dinner and girl on the call showing us attitude when told her that we don t have ride now to come back and change it.
Ordered a soya gravy and baigan bharta with tawa roti.. baigan bharta had too much salt.. both dishes were very oily.. we had to order a side of yogurt to tone down the salt.. disappointed with the food
Always order from here. Very disappointed, roti were all hard, stiff and burnt. Lamb was swimming in oil. Not too happy.
Came from kelowna to had indian food. We didn t had the good experience the samosa was too bad and the sauce they gave us seemed to be stale and too sour. Customer service was not too good.chowmein had too much black pepper and garlic
The garlic naan was awful. Burnt garlic, no butter or parsley. I couldnt eat the Tika masala it was not good. Ive ordered from here a few times in the past and it was always decent but the past month or so its gone downhill. Maybe new cooks? Will never be ordering from here again
KULCHA get it made Fresh in house no takeout!! Prices are so good! Thick chickpea curry, yogurt to cool it down, of you have never tried kulcha treat yourself! Wheelchair accessibility: Good!
I visited there twice from kelowna they never disappoint us. Keep growing
If they ever mess your order up you are always 100% wrong even when you prove it to them and good luck trying to fix it.
Best in town must try
I recently ordered samosas and gol gappe from Lala Ji Restaurant, but was disappointed with the quality. The samosas were burnt, small, and lacked filling, seemingly soaked in old oil. Additionally, they charged extra $5 for green chutney, which was disheartening. The gol gappe were comparatively better, but overall, the experience was unsatisfactory.
Really good food
Love this place! You have to try the chicken Korma!
I stopped by last night for some great Indian food! Drove 70 miles to have some yummy food and this place raised my standards of quality of food. I ordered chaat papri, chicken tikka masala and daal makhani. Had t had Indian food in 3 months so was very excited. I was famished so couldn t get the pictures. To begin with, host was very polite and friendly. She honoured my request for mild food. Atmosphere was nice and warm. Food wise, they were amazing. Cooked to perfection. Right amount of spices. Chaat paper was perfectly crunch and good blend of green and sweet red sauce. Chicken tikka masala was to die for!! I packed left overs and had it for breakfast next day! Daal makhani aroma was amazing and taste was great. Perfectly cooked dishes, rich in texture and flavour too. Can t wait to stop by again in couple weeks for some more food!
typically when I order from here it s a 5/5! but today something happened, I ordered the chicken korma and within 30 minutes after eating it my stomach began to cramp intensely and I felt very nauseous I ended up falling asleep for a couple hours to try and sleep it off. Now fast forward 10 hours later I still feel nauseous and haven t been able to eat since. I don t know if it was food poisoning or what but this was my experience
I have tried north Indian punjabi food so far and its always tasty. Highly recommended Food : 4/5
We were regular at Lalaji s and would get take out from them at least twice a month. We always felt that the take out we got from them was always somewhat inferior to the food we would get during our dine-ins. My hubby ordered some of his favourite chole bhature, samosas and allo tiki burger today. The samosas were literally dunked in oil and it seemed as if they were fried twice. Just to give you an account for how oily it was: by accident, I left the samosa bag on my bed sheet and it left oil strains all over it. The bhaturas were very dry and my hubby fet like they were mot fried at an appropriate temperature. The whole order was a disappointment and seemed as if an amateur had made it. Despite such a disappointing experience, my hubby gave them a call and they offered to make to bhaturas again to which he agreed. The call was made at around 3.30pm and we were yet to receive anything around 4.50 pm. At the end, we called them again and said we didn t want the bhaturas anymore to which they replied ok and hung up. The main reason for this review isn t the quality of food, but is the quality of customer service. On a side note: I don t like to leave negative reviews especially for small businesses. However, with this review I wanted to express my concern and displeasure with the whole situation.
I was very prepared to give a five-star rating to this little restaurant. The food was wonderful, the staff were friendly and helpful. When I had finished my meal I went into the washroom to use the facilities. Omg! The locks on the stalls were broken. The toilets were both leaking onto the floor. The floor was sticky. The toilets were in dire need of attention. There were janitorial supplies left in the open. The paper towel dispenser was broken. The tap leaked. The countertops were disgusting. I couldnt get out of there fast enough. It makes me wonder if the proprietors see it as beneath there station to attend the washroom facilities? If so, hire someone. Fast! Super, super gross.
Best Indian cuisine in Penticton, if not the Okanagan.
Great food and experience! Must visit
Always delicious!
I love ordering their Butter Chicken Curry. So delicious! Parking: Lots of spots
I had an issue with my delivery and the woman whom answered the phone was so helpful!! The food was great too! But I extra appreciated the great customer service.
Awesome food! Vegetarian options: Well planned menu Dietary restrictions: Adequate Parking: Adequate
Good service, good price n high quality products n a large variety to satisfy all tastes. Parking: Ample parking.
We had a wonderful Family Day all you can eat meal with 3 of our kids today. The food was wonderful, but the service was even better. Our server was very polite and friendly, and the owner (I believe) was very accommodating and friendly as well. They offered us so much food for appetizers, and non-stop garlic naan. We were all stuffed. Thank you LaLa Jis! Vegetarian options: We are not vegetarians, but their vegetarian options in the buffet were delicious! Kid-friendliness: Both our server and the owner were very sweet to out 7 year old daughter.
Food was great and staff is very nice and friendly. We love it.
We were 5 people, we went for dinner, around 9:15 . And restaurant was supposed to close at 10. We called them in advance for confirmation. The kitchen it open based, everyone including the kitchen crew started staring. And they stared like for around 20 min. That was very bad experience, one the top we only liked malai chaap, rest everything was gross, may be they were in the rush to close. Overall, it was a very bad experience.
Beat chicken korma I have ever had! Great recommendations for allergies!
The food is superb 99% of the time. The front desk staff are not. Not friendly, not helpful. I went their not long ago after struggling to order on their website. They didnt even ask me what the issue had been. Then told me it would be 10 min for my order. I was the only one sitting there. After 20 min I asked if it was ready yet. It had been sitting there the whole time...getting cold. Wasnt impressed. Vegetarian options: All their food is sensational, lets face it. And so, their vegetarian selections are fantastic too! Parking: Tight spots but acceptable.
Tandoori chicken is marinated full pieces of chicken drumstick , thighs and breast . Making 8 full pieces . Instead they sent 8 tiny pieces cut from the bigger ones making it even less than 50% of the regular full tandoori chicken dish . Never seen this anywhere in the world !
The food, and the portions, here are top notch. We keep coming back! To all those complaining about bad service, go get white bread somewhere else.
If I crave Indian Cuisine Lala Jis is where I go for that Perfect meal
Front desk lady with long hairs have very rude behavior always.they should fired her from lala ji cuisine.
Pre made food dont try please
Just wanted to say huge thank you to mohit & his family with such amazing foods! The quality is so fresh & delicious I would recommend lala ji s to any friends family.
We had a most delightful, delicious experience at Lala Jis. Everyone is so friendly and kind. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. Highly recommend
We tried kofta curry which was amazing. Also i tried fish mansoori curry which is the cult. I personally loved it so much. Overall, good food, service, ambience and hygiene.
Very dated interior, decent food and totally meh service. Good for takeouts though
Tired decor messy at front desk .... dusty...
Sometimes very salty curry, sometimes too good. Naan is good always. Good to see some ongoing renovationa.Tea is awesome. Momos were nice too. Will go again to try other food items. Staff is nice everytime I go. Vegetarian options:
I ordered from skip the dishes as I was too tired to cook. My order was made and delivered in about 45 minutes, perfect timing as it showed up right at 5 pm. I ordered the family B combo and it was delicious, the butter chicken had lots of pieces of chicken, and large portions for me and my 2 kids with lots leftover for lunch tomorrow. I have only been into the restaurant once and it wasnt super fancy (which didnt matter to me) but I prefer to eat at home anyways. Overall experience was good and affordable. Will be ordering again, thanks for the good food and quick service :) Vegetarian options: The mixed veggies were tasty Kid-friendliness: Mt kids enjoy the butter chicken
went for a lunch with my friends, ordered few appetizers, mains and drinks. Their Amritsari kulcha was so delicious, but a little disappointed on drinks, got delayed and the poor server was making the efforts with a chef or someone (who was on a call with them) to make our drinks and they know they don t know how to make drinks, but server said she has the license upon being asked! which was not true I believed, even though they know we were able to see all behind that curtain sitting there. We wanted to cancel the drinks, but server never came back to say anything. We got our drinks when we finished our food and had to return those and again got no explanations from that server, Otherwise, good food!
Have lunch specials For me some things are too salty Order filled quickly. Waitress lovely Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options available Parking: In front of restaurant as well as parking in small lot used by several businesses
Thoroughly enjoyed a chicken korma pizza about a week ago. Visiting from out of town. It was absolutely delicious, such an awesome fusion of flavors. Thank you.
Would give negative stars if I could I ordered 2 chicken tikkas and I got 6 small pieces per serving for 40 dollars and the littlest bit of peppers after I called the owner he said this what he has been selling for years and he will continue to sell it and Im just going to have to deal with it! He told me I can come get some for free but I didnt want free food I wanted to inform him about this service his restaurant was giving to customers
Server was very rude....doesnt know how to treat a customer
Jaisica was awesome. We had a great experience. Will recommend for sure.
Great customer service, shoutout to jessica!
We ordered for delivery. The food was AMAZING! Prices are great. Highly recommended.
Delicious food. Thank you karan
Delicious food and good service . Highly recommended.
Went there today with the misses, absolutely fantastic. Food was excellent and the service awesome. Will definitely be coming back.
Just came into town and stoped by for dinner and the food was great and the server was wonderful (Jessica). I would eat here again and advise you to also! Vegetarian options: Samosas were great!
Our server Jessica was so helpful i have allergies to gluten and dairy she helped me find a fantastic meal that was so full of flavour!! We will definitely be back! Vegetarian options: So many options for vegetarians! Dietary restrictions: They offer gluten free dairy free and vegan options that are very good! Parking: Easy parking lot to access
Fantastic food and service! Highly recommend
Vegetarian options: Dahi chat, vegetarian main course was excellent loved it. Highly recommend this place. Had a great ambiance. Food
Very reasonable prices,good service,amazing food !!
Great job on the ceasers, jessica!
Food was so tasty. Love this place
Tiny over priced servings. Asked for 2 different naan. Garlic and regular. They layered them together making the regular inedible for my partner.
I have been eating here for a while now and i must say their food is the best !!!!!
My family and I had truly great experience in this restaurant! Food was delicious and Jessica exceeded our expectations.
Food was good. Waited more than 1 hour for our food. Better ask them before how long rather than waiting so much. The owner seems to be dominant and rude in nature for the people working so hard in kitchen. So didn t really like the atmosphere of the way treating.
Best amritsari kulcha
Take out prawn biryani, uncooked prawns, biryani tasted like soggy rice with curry, gave apukish feeling after eating
Great Indian food. Very varied menu. Nice atmosphere. Very reasonably priced.
Went with my boyfriend and his parents. We all Absolutely loved it. We each got a diner for 2 and it was more than enough! Our server was amazing! 100% if you want Indian food this is the place to go!
Amazing food. Terrible service. Used to order online - came to dine in, left disappointed. Second time dining in here. First time was great. Fresh delicious food made us to come back. The place was empty - literally we were only guests when we arrived. All stuff had lunch - we had to wait when they finish eating to place the order. Drink menu is not updated - found out actual prices while order. Ordered one samosa - received two. Found couple hair in naan - got exchange quick no problem In the end the bill amount was more than expected - the food menu is not updated as well. Not a crazy busy place to make these mistakes. Hopefully the service gets better after this review
Good food and amazing customer service.
My go-to Indian food place in Penticton (and the competition is steep!). I always order delivery, and we like their dinner combos for two. When it s spicy, a mango lassi is a delicious and effective way to cool your palate. It s essential!
I just wanna tell that food quality is always good but the service is very very very disappointing if you order something they never give you proper condiments. You have to ask all the times for every thing and also they don t feel you special and welcomed so plz if someone comes to you serve them well and feel them special . This time I really got very disappointed.
the service was really good and the food was excellent you cant go wrong coming into this restaurant and having a wonderful meal.
Respected and hardworking staff Food quality and quantity is good Food
Great customer service and Food tastes like homemade.
Love this place, it is my go to place when we eat out.
Our food was fresh and flavorful, with just the right amount of spice. We enjoyed everything we tried on the menu, including the mango lassi, the paneer stuffed naan, and the cauliflower curry. Yum!
This is one of the Indian restaurants in Penticton where there is delicious food. I have developed an acquaintance with the staff and they mostly know my order as soon as I get to the place. The staff is friendly, always smiling and waving at customers. The atmosphere is really good. I get all my take away food from here.
Their tandoori soya chaap is best!!! Had to order more.
Food is tasty and price is very reasonable
Excellent food and had a great experience.
Their food is awesome! We ordered Combination A in medium and it did not disappoint! They delivered really quick too!
We will no longer come here and not because of the food as its always good. But the rudeness of the front of house woman is not acceptable. Also I spent 100 bucks even with rising food costs the amount of food we received is extremely frugal and on the line of insulting for what a person pays for. We are year round customers and have been supporting this business since it opened. We are no longer supporting this establishment and we are local so we will also stop referring people here as well. To bad because the food is good. Hate to see a local business go down because of bad service and cutting down on portions. I would be happy to pay a dollar more a item if I got the same portion size as previous just a suggestion.
This place has gone downhill. Substituting chicken with potatoes.... did they not think we would notice? I used to love this place. I will no longer go here. Terrible food. Oh and their prices are outrageous. For what I paid here I can get double the amount of food at Lachis.
Delicious and great service.
Good food and good ambience
Delicious food.Awesome service
The food i received was not fresh. It tasted like it had been cooked couple hours ago and was smelly.
Poor QUANTITY, didn t like the quality too.
Delicious
We were looking for a halal place but since there aren t any options in Penticton, we decided to get a vegetarian meal at Lala Ji s. We ordered bhalla chaat, pao bhaji, amritsari kulcha and potato stuffed naan. Unbelievable taste and amazing portion sizes. Enjoyed the channas, chutney and raita with everything. Young lady serving us was very friendly and courteous. Highly recommend this place if you are in the area and are seeking authentic Punjabi food!
EXCELLENT..DELICIOUS....WAS IN FROM EDMONTON and came Twice to this fabulous fantastic restaurant... We loved it.... Thanks for the wonderful experience...
In a word: WOW We tried this place for the first time and we will definitely be going back for more. We had veggie momo, ladoo karare, garlic Naan, and channa masala. So delicious.
We are here for work purpose in pentiction from last two months and eating lunch and dinner from Lala ji s, the food is always good and fresh. And the front desk girls always greet and treats good.
Stay away from this place worst customer service , they charged us neither replaced our food or returned our money. Look at the pictures of burnt food.
Excellent food! What a shame not to have a bigger stomach! Fortunately, we were able to take away what we couldnt eat!
My boyfriend and I ordered delivery from here and it was literally the best Indian food I ve had! The tikka masala was amazing and the wait was super short! Prices are great too, Thank you so much
Food is great and they have Indian street food as well as regular menu. Prices are reasonable as well. Servers are friendly. Will definitely go again.
Ordered Goa chicken curry (medium) got butter chicken (mild) and didnt notice till I got home. And Im seriously questioning if the food was safe to eat as Ive been stuck to the toilet for 4 hours.
Food is a 5, service is a 1. Get take out.
Food tasty but you get to see flies everywhere and they sit on food. Washrooms are unhygienic
Food tasted great.... but I had to pick a bug out of my salad.
Some of the best Indian cuisine I have had.
Amazing staff and food is delicious, I highly this place
Item was missing from takeout order.
This will the third time I have come to this place and all the time it has been a ok experience with food.
Ignoring the fact that the restaurant is in need of maintenance and a good deep cleaning, the food is delicious hot and beautifully presented. We had one of the specials and took home almost half for later. Lovely staff, great service and wind food.
The Amritsari kulcha here we at were amazing we ordered it spicy and don t think it can get any better than that amazing service
Oh man just found this restaurant by accident. The service, food and cleanliness is #1
Very fresh and delicious food. Great service. One of the best in the valley!
Love their food! Delicious curries and soft and yummy naan. My go to Indian food in town!
Delicious food spent 150$ take out but the serving size was very disappointing. I thought food will be enough for 4 people but it was not felt really embarrassed in front of everyone.Make sure you order double
Great food lunch special is cheap and enough to make you full
Hlo ji asi special kelowna tu twada food try krn aye si bhut tasty si twada food special ladoo krare and tandoori chap
Great place e
Nice service the food was authentic, great portions very reasonable had their butter chicken came with rice salad and homemade naan for 10 bucks Ill definitely be going back
Little expensive but good food.
Great service and delicious food
Staff is not good with customers
All the locals and tourists are requested not to go there, very very bad customer service and tasteless food.
Worst service I have ever experienced from a restaurant.
Lala jis Indian Cuisine is a magical restaurant where you can enjoy the variation of flavor from India. Every single dish that we tried as a family brought a feeling of happiness. The delicious and delicate combination of spices was perfect enough to transform the food experience in a moment of memorable happiness! The customer service was excellent! I strongly recommend this place if you are on vacation and want to keep excellent memories from your travel.
Very good food and service. Will be going back again!
Best Indian food in Penticton by far. Everytime Ive gone in there the foods been amazing. My family and I love it. Highly recommend
Decent indian food, I enjoyed lachi more.
Simply delicious. Hot naan, good vegetarian curry.
Waste of time. Food s quality is bad. No napkins and fork with the food. So we eat with our hands. Not recommend to go there.
Amazing food! I have tried many items from the menu and have never been disappointed. Also great value; good portions to cost. But most importantly DELICIOUS! :)
Tasty :)
I order from here at least once a week. The food is consistently delicious and they have the best prices in town. Theyre also so accommodating. I forgot to order raita on skip the dishes and called and offered to pay for it with my credit card if they could add it and they added it for free. Its the little things that count
Must Try! Food is amazing especially the Amritsari Kulcha Chole
This used to be one of our favorite places for Indian. And the food is still amazing. The issue is completely with the kitchen and the service. The last time we were there, the service was awful. Drinks not refilled, ignored by the waitress, food overcooked etc. But the place was busy and you know.... COVID.... so we were more than willing to give it another chance. Tonight we were literally the only table in there. We were completely ignored after placing our order. Had to literally flag down the waitress to get a refill on water for our daughter. Asked how much longer food would be (after 45 minutes and all we had had was one appetizer but we had watched 14 take out orders go out). Got ready to leave after an hour and went to pay the bill without receiving our food. Told the food was sitting there. Literally sitting getting cold on the counter but she couldnt be bothered to bring it out.
Authentic Indian street food. Absolutely delicious. Must try! We did not try regular curries. One less star for the wait time and cleanliness of place. But a 5-star for the food!
I tried first time here food and service was really amazing!! I would highly recommend to visit lala ji s. Tandoori dish is awesome
This restaurant was not neat at all. The floor was sticky when we went inside they should take care for more cleaning. We ordered golgappa the water for golgappa was so cold and even the filling they got for that was even cold. Pav banji was delicious and also we ordered poori it was delicious too.
Used to be my favorite. Dont believe their online hours though. I placed an order on a day they said they were open. Took an hour and many unanswered phone calls til I got my friend to drive over and see they were closed. The order service still placed my order and took my money even though they were closed. 4 days later all they offer is a refund that will be in my second in 2 business days. Not pleased with their customer service at all. I wanted to re order, not a refund. They said Id have to pay for it, nothing comped. Great way to keep your year round customers! :(
Always love eating at this place as it is close to my home and work. I now know most of the staff and they are very nice and friendly. The food is always top notch. I go there frequently with my friends and with anyone who is visiting me in Penticton.
Worst chicken curry ive had
Great food
Some of the best food in town.
Really good butter chicken served Naan bread both very good
The food here is wonderful! Served our basmati rice and curry dish is these lovely little copper pots. Just fantastic Paneer Pankora. I highly recommend.
We went for a birthday dinner. We had the best service (Adi), he is such a nice guy. The food was great as always. Had the tandoori mix, lamb korma, chicken pakora...and it was impressive. Will be back of course
Kiss the Cook!! We just finished a fabulous meal at Lala Jis. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves Indian food. The flavors were distinct, full and pleasing, the portions generous, the naan delicious. We had the Chicken Biryani, Vegetable Navrattan Korma and Palak Paneer, oh and a couple of cups of yummy Masala Chai. The prices were very reasonable and our waiter Adi was attentive from start to finish. We left completely satisfied by the entire experience. Lala Jis just moved into my top ranking for Indian food in Penticton. Bring ALL of your friends or order a take out feast, either way you are sure to enjoy this wonderful food.
Food was great and so was the service ove the decor as well
Very well customer service by a guy named Aditya. He was very nice. He made our evening memorable.
best in town.
We had the most amazing food and service here! Everything was so perfect, our daughter who is 2 loved the butter chicken, garlic naan, and vegetable pakoras. Our server went out of his way to make our daughters dining experience special. Thank you!!
I stopped in here for their lunch special and it was delicious! I had the chicken vindaloo, and it was amazing. Recommended, prices are very reasonable
The food was delicious and served promptly. The spinach and cheese stuffed naan bread is to die for. I highly recommend.
Great food, very clean and organized establishment. Have been here a few times and I m never disappointed good service especially Thanks to Bani sath and . I ll definitely be back
Very tasty food, very good service. My chickpea with bread was delicious. If you dont like very spicy food ask them moderate or even extra moderate
Food doesn t look fresh, worse experience i ever have
Very good everytime, great people as well
Omg was recommended to me by my coworker and is definitely worth a trip from Kelowna for the noodle burger is a must have! Soooo good!
Good service very nice staff
Excellent food! Very friendly service and always tasty!
I usually don t write a lot of reviews. But lalaji food is amazing. So authentic. being a south asian I just love their quality. Just hope the portions were s little bigger. Amazing service as well
Had dinner over there. That was really good and delicious and service was appreciated. But soya curry was very less in terms of quantity. Hope for the best next time.
Love the food! I Drive all the way from Kelowna to Penticton for this place and its all worth it!!
Awesome tasting food at good price! Very open and airy layout. Will visit again.
Great service, great food.
