325 Main St, Penticton, BC V2A 5B7, Canada
Affordable, clean and excellent food...taste of Indian and Nepal. Highly recommend. Server was very attentive and food did not take long to arrive after ordering. This place beats the other Indian offerings in Penticton by a long shot.
The food is simple and fantastic. The best meal I've had in months. Sincere service and some solid recommendations based on your preferences. Thumbs up.
Great atmosphere! Great prices! Great food! Great staff! Started off with Masala Chai and Chicken Pakora yumm! For our entree shared Butter Chicken, Chilly Chicken, Rice, Cheese naan and Garlic naan! I recommend all if you haven’t had it would recommend good for beginners who want to try outside their comfort zone of just Butter Chicken, try their Chilly Chicken the taste is so good!!
I ordered beef Samosas, they looked really good but tasted very gamey, I didn't enjoy them very much. The sauce they came with was wonderful. The rest of the food was not really anything exciting. Not the most flavourful. Waiter was very polite and wonderful 😊
The food was good and our server was very friendly. You could tell that on a busy Sunday night more servers were needed as the few working seemed very overworked. However, they managed to get our order right and brought everything out together. It would be nice if the place stayed open until later as we saw many customers forced to turn away and miss the awesome food.
The food was honestly good. I ordered the butter chicken and coconut rice (which I believe it never came lol). One can customize the spice level of the food. I ordered my chicken mild and it was indeed mild. The garlic naan was tasty as well. My friends ordered other plates from the menu and they were very satisfied with the flavours. The server was very kind and patient in answering all our questions and customizing our orders. It is definitely a 4.8 restaurant.
Server was super friendly & the right amount of attentive. Food came out steaming/sizzling. There aren't a tonne of tables but the ones they have are big. Set up like a cafeteria which I'm completely fine with but if you're one of those who requires ambience/cultural design, adjust your expectations - the food is def worth it.
It was such a great experience being at this place. Ate two days in a row. Food was so yummy, I never had such a tastier Indian food ever in my life. Very friendly staff, Everyone came out to greet us including owner. We drove one extra hour next day again opposite to our way back home just to enjoy their food. Thank you again guys for great welcome and would definitely come back again.
Nice
This place is consistent with their delicious food, have tried a handful of things like the butter chicken, lamb curry, lamb vindaloo, rogan josh, chicken korma) they were all amazing . Their garlic Naan is good and not burnt like other places
Fav Indian place. Always delicious and great service.
Best Indian food in the valley
Puts me on hold while taking an order for a long time and has no courtesy to even call back.
Wow! The curries, naan and rice were out of this world. Highly recommend this establishment.
The food service and ambiance was so good and I recommend it 100%. We ordered paneer butter masala and Manchurian. The food was 10/10 and server name Mahesh was so good at his service. Will definitely go again.
Weve been going here for a few years now and the food has been steadily good here. We are very happy with them. Bonus, prices are very reasonable.
We were on a short visit to Penticton and wanted to eat indian food. After checking some reviews in google we found this restaurant had great reviews. We ordered garlic naan, roti, pepsi and chicken tikka masala. The curry was so tasty and the quantity was good. It was sufficient for two people. It isnt pricey either. We end up paying$ 28 and it is for two people. Its totally worth it.
Food was delicious, and the service was wonderful
Very good with reasonable prices
Fish tikka is out of the world
Curry is better than Lachis, but the bread is better at Lachis.
Great food always. Whenever i go to town i eat in here.
Delicious, great prices, amazing service. Thank you so much for a wonderful dinner - what a treat!
This is one of the best Indian food I have had so far. High recommend. If youre visiting penticton please give them a try.
Baljinder served us and the service was really great. Had dal makhani was better than surrey Food
Just as tasty and nice on ambience as any place in Vancouver where were from. A great way to start our trip here today!
Good food-good prices.
I ate Naan and Chicken curry, so deliciois and lovely.
Me and my wifes favorite indian restaurant in penticton. We celebrated our 6year wedding anniversary Recommended dishes
Fuddu food. No flavour no nothing not even real Indian food
Very tasty food, authentic Indian, friedly staff, fair prices Vegetarian options: Rich choice of many vegetarian dishes Food : 5/5 |
Well deserved 5 Stars.
I have order Bhalla chat spring roll and chicken pkora The food was not at all tasty and not fresh. I will never order from this restaurant after today and I will give the same advice to everyone else if you want to try Indian food, choose another restaurant. Rating zero
Perfectly Indian
I loved the food!!! Absolutely amazing. I lived in Japan and the cooks there were from Nepal. They are absolutely the best cooks!!! The naans are amazing, no fillers.
Very tasty Indian food!
Such tasty Indian food for such a great price. Love eating here
Food was so delicious . Best customer service. Highly satisfied
Lamb vindaloo and lamb saag and so delicious! But the riata was a huge let down... Will be back forsure! Food : 5/5
I cant say enough about their food. The butter chicken of course is to die for.. I will have to try other things on the menu but I keep going back to my favorite. I highly recommend stopping in this wonderful, wonderful restaurant. They will treat you right and you will leave happy..
I am a local and stopped in for lunch with an American friend visiting. I had the lunch special curry chicken which also had rice, salad, naan. I had level 4 hot (out of 5) and it was just right. We had appetizers and a drink also. Not expensive at all for a full plate meal. Food was ready in less than 10 min and was hot and delicious. We had a window seat. The server, a young lady, was great.
Thank you Kamal for an excellent dinner that I enjoyed with my friends. The food was delicious and a great value. Look forward to returning soon. Food : 5/5
Penticton is blessed with many great Indian restaurants but Penticton Indian Cuisine is my favorite.
Super quick service, generous portions, tasty food and reasonable prices. A decent selection of vegan options and the beers were impressively cold.
its yummy food and there is one indian girl name Baljinder . she is so nice to us . i recommend everyone to visit here
First time at Penticton Indian Cuisine, the Service was amazing, restaurant was clean. Ordered masala chai, pappadum, veg manchurian, kadhai chicken, achar, potato and garlic naan. The tea was very watery. Manchurian was good, nice spicy sauce, so much red food colouring. Kadhai chicken was bland, no flavor and lots of food colour. Pappadum was really tasty and the pickle made the chicken edible. Would not recommend.
Ordered through Skip. Food was ABSOLUTELY AWESOME.
Good food. Simple utilitarian atmosphere. Reasonable prices.
Great food, great service . . . loved it!
Always just get take out, but its excellent, easy and fast to pick up. One of if not the best Indian in town.
Three of us had 4 dishes last night (delivered). Tandoori, Mango chicken, Butter chicken and Chicken Korma. All were incredibly delicious! The portions were ample so we had leftovers today. Weve eaten here numerous times and its always a hit! Thank you for continuing to make magic with your food!
Was very disappointed in your cheese Nann bread.
Very delicious and clean food highly recommended
The best
Good fast service and the food was amazing
Just amazing, great meal, good staff!!
The food was good and the service was quick.
Worst food ever, ordered chowmein, chicken pieces were so bloody dry,tasteless, no salt, no spice( although ordered med spicy), chkn methi malai was so bland( tasteless), will not order again
Great good. Kids love the chicken Pakora. Dishes could be more spicy I asked for a 6 and was still very manageable but I do love an extra spicy curry. We got ours take out. Just this last time felt they were a bit short on the chicken Pakora we ordered 2 serves and we didnt seem to get that much. Very friendly staff always a lovely greeting. After trying all the Indian cuisine in Penticton over the last 5 years this is the stand out for flavours buy a long shot.
Outstanding and unique flavors that I havent experienced anywhere else in the Okanagan or in Canada for that matter.
Some of the best Indian food iv ever had, and iv had a lot of Indian food
This place is the most incredible Indian food ever!!! Not even from town but will absolutely be back just to visit this place!
Good food at a good price
Liked the ambience, hospitality and the food. Though felt a little expensive, but overall it was a nice experience.
Food is the best in Penticton, but the customer service is constitstantly lacking.
Got the dinner combo with butter chicken and it was a great deal for the price and variety of items you get. Prompt service with friendly staff.
Delicious food and excellent service. Very nice family owned restaurant. My go to order here is their amazing butter chicken whether dine in or takeout, weve always enjoyed our food and friendly service. Restaurant is very clean and welcoming.
Stopped in for dinner. There was only one person working in the front but she was hustling and explained some of the dishes on the menu in more detail. We split the dinner for two for $34 and it was veeeery filling. We tried the beef vindaloo and palak paneer with a spice level of 3. Both were very good but get at least a 4 if you want some kick. And the mango lassi was tasty too
Food and service was great, Jasman excellent service
Amazing food! Service was great too! Atmosphere is kind of open, loud and cafeteria-like but thats easy to overlook when the food is so great!
It was a great experience good food and good services loved our server baljinder must visit this place
Best lunch specials Edit: Im a regular and come here often and recently I have noticed it only gets better and I dont even know how thats possible!! You guys rock!!
Best Indian food in the Okanagan.
Really enjoyed the lunch special, very flavourful.
One of, if not the best Indian food Ive ever had. The naan is too good as well.
Im a long time thali fan, Ive been spoiled on the east coast with three option thali plates. For the price in 2023, the one dish thali was decent and generous. It would be nice to have a traditional 2- 3 option thali with smaller portions and maybe 1-2$ more and thatd be worth it. Atmosphere is cafeteria clean, nothing special, but the service was excellent and I appreciated the girl taking care of me. Id like to try other options here so I will return
It was just WOW !!! tried shahi paneer and baigan bharta, just taste so so so good. Traveling from london, ON. I recommand this restaurent if you are looking for indian restaurent near kelwona or summerland.
So lets get this out of the way. Meh name like. Really meh name. BUT!!! Legit the best Indian food I have ever had. Across Bc nothing comes even close. If you want an experience get butter chicken then get coconut Naan bread. AMAZING COMBO. it so good and works perfectly. Chicken korma. Amazing. Butter chicken amazing. Everything on the menu is amazing. Highly reccomend!
The food was amazing. Somehow, the consistency of the rice was the biggest surprise. Just like it should be. The option to choose your own preferred amount of spice is great.
Amazing food and service!!!
Our third visit, and we don t even live in Penticton! This place is absolutely fantastic.
Good food. But wayyy over priced.
We were expecting some really great Indian food based on reviews but it fell short. Friendly staff.
best indian restaurant in town
My first time there, do d a quick pick up to take home! Wow exceeded my expectations. Food was amazing, young lady who served me was friendly and prompt. By far the best Indian cuisine I have had since my move to the Okanagan! Great job guys!
Very helpful and great food.....
Good food
Best Indian food in town! It was a delight
Best indian food in town without any doubt
Went for lunch with my son. We had butter chicken and garlic naan and the chana masala with bhatura. The food was delicious - perfectly balanced and no overkill on particular spice. Naan was fluffy and yummy. I recommend for sure .
We had a delicious meal here. We were looked after by Pranav, who was brilliant. Definitely recommend thsi restaurant in Penticton Food
Great flavours. Generous portions. Clean restaurant. We highly recommend!
I came here both for lunch and dinner and it was great every time I had. Very well priced for such fresh food. Food
We went in to this restaurant to have a lunch and food was freshly cooked and Naan was baked well and delicious and the service was good.well recommended. Vegetarian options: They serve the vegetarian dish as well.
Looking for authentic Indian food, this place is great. We enjoyed the dinner for two which includes the naan and salad.
Wow. The best Indian food I had. We were visiting from Vancouver and tried the chicken korma and actually went back the next day to try the butter chicken. Amazing, both times. Will visit anytime I m in Penticton
It was really a great and outstanding experience with this restaurant at Penticton. It was nearby the beach like just 5 minute drive. Weve been there with the family of 9 people and the service was so rapid and splendid. All the staff was so welcoming nature and having a smile on face that demonstrates good way of customer service. Thanks Penticton Indian cuisine for great service. Will visit again here for sure. Vegetarian options: Kashmiri Rajma and Aloo Gobi.
They have a 40 - 50 seater restaurant, with one uninterested sloppy staff to serve all the customers. Waited 5 mins after being seated, no one brought the menu, grabbed it myself. Another 10 mins, no one brought water or took order. Left without ordering. Go to this place if you want to get a feel of an unwanted guest in a wedding reception
Food was delicious good prices
Everyone in the fam having nice time here. Fire bucks = big meals. Sumptuous savory flavours, chose your spice levels
Very clean. Very large and open space. There is nothing to make it feel like an Indian restaurant though. The food is amazing though!!! I would suggest that whatever heat level you prefer you either go one level higher OR lower. We ordered a level 2 as my parents arent big on heat. It felt like a 1. Take that for what its worth. Parking is on main street. Might be limited to the time if day. Dont forget to pay the meters too.
Yummy vegan and vegetarian options! Really rich and tasty curries and amazing naan; hit the spot on a cloudy day
Fantastic food and fantastic people
If I can give this a six star I would. Excellent food, the waitress was kind and explained what was what. My hat goes off to the Chef as he came and sat with us and explained his calinary adventures he had in his culinary quest.
Tried the chicken biryani it is very delicious I asked for medium heat and they were spot on I loved the use of Serrano peppers
Food is so good. Best Indian restaurant in town!
I absolutely love this place! My family and I eat here often,absolutely delicious! Super friendly, remember you by name! The whole staff really put the extra effort in. An absolute must do, whether youre from Penticton or just visiting. Great food, relaxed atmosphere, definitely leave feeling happy, in the belly, mind, and pocket book
I had the shrimp masala it was great ordered the goat bone in curry to go and I have had a lot of goat bone in curries and been disappointed with tough hunks of goat with no bones But this restaurant delivered bone in goat curry that was the best I have ever had Great job totally enjoyed my take out goat curry with naan bread the day after. I will be back to order more to put in my freezer it was that good Thank You
Food and service were excellent, will visit again. Space could use some sound baffles on the ceiling to reduce some echo. Dietary restrictions: Our server was knowledgable about which dishes did or did not have dairy products in them without having to check with kitchen.
Don t order the butter chicken here unless you want food poisoning.
I tried veg samosas and it s really yummy and my friends said there food is also amazing.
Ive tried all the indian restaurants in Penticton. I love indian food and have been going to the same indian place for 10 years. Today I decided to try Penticton Indian Cuisine and I have been converted over, this is my new go to indian food spot. Delicious good!
We liked the good taste of their dishes and thats why we came back, the guys are very friendly and helpful.
Sweet and patient staff, amazing food, good prices, generous portions. My favourite Indian restaurant in the Okanagan!
Awesome and authentic flavors.. loves the food. Lovely place to dine in and take out..
Delicious food, great menu.
Loved their food
Staff was friendly and nice. Food was good too. Decent portions of dishes at reasonable prices. Will definitely recommend it.
Amazing flavors with generous portions very friendly staff. Prices are very reasonable.Try it you wont be disappointed.
Best Indian food for miles around!
Excellent food. Every dish we have had from here was superb. A beautiful balance of flavours. Generous amounts of meat in their curries, unlike some other restaurants. This is the best Indian food in Penticton. In fact, this is the best Indian food I have ever had.
This place is amazing. Knocks it out of the park everytime. I was there for lunch a couple weeks ago and the Mango Chicken, Butter Chicken and Chicken Tikka is on point. Had a friend buy me dinner from here the other night and it was fantastic again. Service is always great too. Love the 1 and 2 person combos they have now too.
Great food, great taste, great price, great portions.... A must visit
Easily the best butter chicken I have ever had! Absolutely loved it! My wife loves eating here as well. I had to get her a gift card so she could lunch here more often.
Excellent flavour, excellent prices, excellent service!! Best in the Okanagan!
I had the nan bread and lamb skewer, it was so good! Perfect flavor and not to spicy... I cant wait to eat here again!
Very friendly staff and delicious Indian Food. Loved their Makai Kofta and Butter Chicken. Kudos to our server Inderjit, he is awesome on job !!!
Best butter chicken in Penticton!
The food was great, spicy and flavorful. We were just passing through Penticton and luckily found this nice and clean indian food place. Definitely worth the visit again.
I would highly recommend this place. We catered from them for our wedding weekend and they delivered exceptional service with amazing tasting food. They were able to adapt at any moment for the time of delivery or menu item without complaining even once. Please support this local business as they are an amazing family running it.
Amazing service and catering! All the food was above our expectations. Thankyou for your service
Best indian cuisine..delicious food and excellent service
Excellent food!
So most places you go to are just doing the bare minimum using little tricks with canned food and sauces. But these people are Nepalis and damn they cook desk style food that is to die for. Najara ageya bai. India yaad ageya. Will go there every trip no doubt!!
Excellent food
Very well prepared food.. quick service and very friendly staff. Must stop by, if you are visiting Penticton.
Friendly service. Good portions. Affordable pricing and very very tasty food. Very much flavourful and unique between dishes. Asked for medium spicy and it wasnt spicy at all. I liked that they have a Thali option.
Wonderful service. The best Indian food I have eaten in 30 years. We came back the next day for another meal becuase it was so good
Had friends up for the states that have lived in India and Pakistan and they were very impressed with the food. Our first time to the restaurant and the food and service was excellent. We will be back.
Excellent food, great service!! Dambar and his staff looked after my guests for 10 days, served over 200 guests, everyday diff food 10/10 taste and service. If you are into authentic Indian food give it a try, you won t be disappointed at all!!
Fresh and tasty food with excellent service, whats more to ask! Highly recommended
My brother got catering done from this place for the get together over the weekend. Every item was delicious and service was great. I loved their lamb curry and manchurian. My son loved their shahi paneer and Mr. Husband became fan of their paneer tikka, daal makhni, lamb curry and their custard was amazing too. Staff was also very polite and pleasant. We will definitely visit for a dine in experience next time we are in town.
Absolutely great service, always felt welcome. Excellent prices. Delicious food.
The lunch is delicious, it tastes good, if you like spicy food this is it. Vegetarian options: They have several options
Absolutely delicious!! One of the best Indian meals Ive ever had. The staff were friendly and efficient. Definitely recommend!
We ordered take out for 60 people for a get together. The taste of food was authentic, portions were abundant. The customer service was excellent. They gave us different options for the menu and was honest in suggesting the quantity. We all loved Penticton Indian Cuisine.
Absolutely delicious!!!! Wow wow wow . One of the best indian restaurants that we have been to. We asked for #5 spice and they sure brought the heat which was nice. We loved the dinner for 2 option that came with a nice cooling slad, rice , 2 dishes and more. I am excited to go back !!! My wife and I are telling all of our friends about it. Great service . Nice staff.
OMG it was sooo good :)
Fantastic Indian food! The lunch/dinner for one combo is an amazing deal. Everything is very well seasoned and fresh. Some of the best Naan I have ever had - so flaky!
Vegetarian options: Great options.
This restaurant when first opened made quality food. But, now omg I ordered a goat curry and it was full of fat. The next day I was going to warm it up and it was like jello. Disgusting. Previously, I had this problem and mentioned it to staff. I thought this time it would be better. Nope. Also, their portion of food has drastically decreased in size. Its a shame as they were so good and I thought Id hire them for big parties. No way.
I can t believe how good this was. In the US, it s best to have very low expectations for international food in smaller towns not here! Some of the best Indian food I ve had anywhere. Nice service too.
One of the best Indian foods I ever had.
My first time eating at a Indian restaurant. Our server was very friendly and helpful in suggesting foods to try. Went with the dinner for two and the food was amazing.
Good food and good service
Extremely tasty food and very friendly service.
Quick friendly service.....beef curry and garlic Nan to die for!
Excellent samosas and super friendly staff - we love Abdul!
Excellent meal at this downtown Penticton spot. Clean but casual interior, prompt friendly service, and fantastic food! Our Denver guests described this as some of the best Indian they ve ever had. They also do a great job Gluten-Free! The Mango Chicken is an excellent suggestion for Butter chicken lovers and they have a nice, but small selection of local wines and Indian beers to compliment your meal.
The butter chicken is amazingly delicious. I loved it!
Absolutely delicious and so satisfying! Got the dinner for two one meat and one veg curry with rice naan and salad. Perfectly flavoured with perfect heat.
I tried this Indian restaurant for the first time as I read so many glowing reviews but for us it didn t blow our minds. We will definitely be going back to our usual Indian place. We are vegan so maybe that has a major impact on taste at this particular place, potentially not as used to it as others. Also none of the dishes came with rice which is very unusual - I wasn t expecting this so I had to make my own rice to go with the dishes which isn t what you want to do when ordering takeout. Dishes were very oily as well - if this is something you are sensitive to, quite more oily than we re used to. Overall, was not a bad experience but won t be returning as we ve tried others that were by far much better.
Absolutely the best East Indian Food in Penticton. Butter chicken to die for, and the chow mein (yes you read that right) is the best I ve had in many years. Super clean restaurant and a charming little outdoor patio for that special someone. Out of this world butter chicken will bring you back. You wont be disappointed!
Worst food and service.
Great place
Got take out butter chicken lunch special. Very good quality chicken, big pieces, very tasty sauce and delicious naan. Under $12 per person, highly recommended! They also refilled my water bottle with ice too. Ate down at the waterfront where parking was free.
Service wasnt very good. Wasnt really anything special about the food.
Amazing and authentic Indian food. Service was very warm,fabulous and admirable.Highly recommended to this place
Wow. The price to quality/portion ratio here is unbelievable. We got a mild butter chicken and a spicy chicken curry on the lunch specials for under $25 ( a rare feat in the Indian cuisine market).
Some of the best Indian food we ve had. The portions were big and the curries were packed with flavour. The best part was definitely our waiter, who was so friendly and made sure he understood exactly how we wanted our food to be.
The most delicious Indian food I ever had!! This restaurant is so good in prices and food that I would love to live here just to try this everyday. Butter chicken is the most delicious thing I ever tried . :) 100000 stars for this place
I ordered 8 chana bhatura , 1 rajma chawal , 1 lamb briyabi , 1 tikki chana Each and every item was so yummy, everything was 10/10. Never had good exp as here. Must visit
This is my favourite Indian restaurant in the Okanagan. The best chicken tikka, daal, paneer. Everything here is so good. We order from here all the time.
I ve been here 3 years and go here 2-3 times a month. One of the best place in town for vegetarians, and our meatarians guests love it too. Good food, good portions, affordable prices. We are regulars.
Great food and service!
Delicious food . Must try
Amazing Chicken Korma. Very flavorful and creamy. Great service and decent value for the quality of food.
Food was fantastic. Will definitly be a go to whenever I am in town!
Clean restaurant, large portions, tasty food. Tried the Lamb Rogan Josh for the 1st time, absolutely amazing. Vegetarian options: Many options. Kid-friendliness: Booster chairs available.
Great value for both the lunch and dinner for one meals. Amazing naan and veg pakora
Great food and amazing staff!
Great food and friendly staff. Highly recommend for a quick Indian cuisine lunch. Thanks!!
This place is excellent!!! Great service, great good, great prices! We will definitely be back! Parking: Parking right out front of restaraunt
Love the platters and Butter chicken and all Tandoori breads
The food is amazing. The service was great as well. It would be a great place for a large group.
