AMAZING SERVICE ! 😀 I just stopped in for lunch to order some takeout on the Holiday Monday, they told me unfortunately they were too busy to have my food ready in 15 mins as it was the lunch rush, But after a quick check.witu the kitchen they had my lunch ready in less then 10 minutes. Best chicken Biryani I have ever had is the cherry on-top. Thanks 👍

I ate here a few times, and it wasn't too bad. It's not the best, but it's not too bad either. The dishes were good but not something that I would get overly excited about either. Service varied as well was good at times but not always.

Most probably this is the only Halal restaurant of Prince George. Food quality and prices are great with excellent customer service. Ambience is great. Conveniently located close to all the major hotels in Prince George.

From the aromatic curries to the tantalizing tandoori specialties, every dish exceeded my expectations and left me craving for more. 2. Fast Service: One of the standout features of Karim Indian Cuisine is the prompt and efficient service provided by the staff. Despite the restaurant's popularity, my orders were promptly taken, and the food was served in a timely manner. The attentive waitstaff ensured that my dining experience was smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. 3. Friendly Staff: The staff at Karim Indian Cuisine are not only efficient but also incredibly friendly and welcoming. From the moment I stepped through the door, I was greeted with warm smiles and genuine hospitality. The staff went above and beyond to accommodate any special requests and ensure that I felt valued as a customer. Overall, my dining experience at Karim Indian Cuisine in Prince George was outstanding.

Quiet place. The samosas are the best bang for your buck. The Mango chicken came with a lot of sauce for the meat. So there's plenty for dipping your Naan in later. You can choose your spice level, the maximum really builds up after a few bites

Well this was my 2nd time visiting Karim Indian Cuisine. I ordered Special Choley Bhature and Chickem Tikka for take out. (To the owner. Next time please put napkins and utensils in the bag) Have a look at the picture to see what you get for ($9.99 great price) What a great deal. It’s the perfect lunch or even great dinner with adding an appetizer Chicken Tikka ($12.99 great price)the second photo. Choley and Bhauure were very tasty with the Mix Raita(Yogurt) pickle char(spicy) and raw onions is a great touch. Chicken Tikka with bell peppers and onions. The chicken was cooked in the Tandoor and cooked perfect. It was not dry because it’s wasn’t over cooked. Great job Chef. Funny thing is I was sending photos about my lunch to my family during lunch hour because I was downtown in Prince George doing a GLP driving course. 8 of my family members went for dinner here tonight. If you are visiting my great city of 44 years and want good Indian food at very good prices visit Karim Indian Cuisine.

First time eating here. I had Samosas Chole for lunch. Asked for spicy. It’s was perfect. Good tasting Chole and good portion size for $8.50. Great lunch. I’ll be back to try something new.

I went to this restaurant with my family when i tried the food it doesn t taste fresh and felt like sour taste of dal makhni and kadahi paneer. Garlic naan were also not fresh.

Well well well Vancouver and Toronto and visiting Montreal has its obvious foodie / connoisseur dining favorites but this place that I have come to find in the city of Prince George has so far out of all the Indian cuisine that I have tried including my neighbor Danushs mothers cooking from my days before my teens , couldnt get to taste and resonate this pleasantly in my brain fighting with my eyes telling that I need more .....will the kids be angry if I ate there leftovers...well I already ate them and they cant be as bad as i am happy that I did .... leftovers. Yep I got full there and am full again 60 bucks for family of four best deal and meal ......... Butter chicken,Coconut rice, coconut chicken , spinach paneer naan......yes ,yes and yes please

February 22, 2024

They sell stale, fungle foods , if some customer came for dine in and their left food like if they order curd, owner keep the left over curd and put in the same container and than again he sell. Its real , its not fake comment

Ordered medium spicy butter chicken and it was mild and too tomato tasting. The chana masala was too spicy and the chick peas were stiff like they hadnt softened or absorbed the sauce. Service was so-so. Nice decor and good location. Food came quickly.

December 22, 2023

No flavour in the butter chicken curry. More like pasta sauce. Not a lot of real reviews here.

December 22, 2023

Rude front staff, lack of communication skills and pathetic food. Chef has no clue what is a butter chicken and how its prepared. Amateur chef. Would never recommend this unhealthy restaurant.

December 22, 2023

I ordered momos and a mango shake, momos are FALSELY ADVERTISED. They were defiantly store bought chicken gyoza. I ve had a mango lassis and that was NOT what I remember it being. I would not call this authentic. Waste of money I could ve made this myself in 5 minutes.

December 22, 2023

I ordered through skip the dishes, but the food was so bad it caused reaction to throat whoever ate chole bhature, heard a lot hood things but guess what, its just wastage of money and health. Called to complain and the staff was blaming each other by saying I was off that day someone else was working so I don t know how they manage everything if they don t accept the mistake. Never going to order again and recommended others as well to not.

December 22, 2023

Tried this restaurant for the first time today, it was a terrible let down. The quality is so horrible. The butter chicken sauce is just Campbells tomato soup, theres very little spices, depth or anything that makes butter chicken unique or authentic. They literally microwaved the chicken, it was hard and rubbery, Ive never had chicken like this before, it was like eating erasers. The naan was tasty as least, but didnt make up for the rest. Unfortunately the worst Indian food in town, the quality was embarrassing. Ive never had chicken this bad before. My hubby and I have been feeling sick for hours from it, this never happens with the others in town. I suspect microwaving chicken isnt exactly safe

I have ordered food today from doordash dal makhni was not up to mark and lassi was missing and i asked driver too he said he never received any drink i think staff is just so negligent

December 22, 2023

I got butter chicken from here and it was definitely not for human nor animal consumption. The chicken is unseasoned. The sauce is unseasoned. It tastes like a lady named Sharon made it. It was like campbells tomato soup and some chicken. If you don t want to go to work the next day, eat here.

Service was awful! Food was good. Server litterly came up just staring at us. No hello no nothing. Super awkward. No drinks were offered had to call her over whenever we needed anything. Never checked on us. Forgot part of the order which took half way through the meal for her to come out of the back to inquire about where it was. Got up to pay didnt even receive a bill or question how I was paying just had the debt machine pushed in my face. I think she may have said 3 words to us the whole time we were in the establishment. We didnt even get menus. Just got up and grabbed the paper ones at the entrance. Worst service I think Ive ever received for a dine in restaurant. 100% will not be returning. They need a brighter face for front of house staff.

Food Quality: Average, almost everything has same flavour! Worst butter chicken ever, like chicken in tomato gravy!! Chicken tikka masala was very blunt, chicken was not grilled at all. Chicken wings and beef kabab was good. Hakka noodles was soupy. I have never tasted hakka noodles like that. Food Quantity: Again, very poor. Gravy items were like a pond with hardly found meat pieces. I have been there for three times now. Overall, did not have satisfactory experience

What an interesting experience! Definitely a time my friend and I will never forget. There was an unexpected twist at every corner. From the service to the interior design, this place was both interesting and amusing. You just never know what youre going to get! Would recommend everyone experience this fine dining at least once. Do not be deceived from the emptiness and lack of staff on the inside. Just walk in with confidence, find a clear table, and a waiter will magically emerge from behind the kitchen curtain to be with you momentarily. Their bathrooms are both effective, and functional. Minimal flies. I give it 2 stars only because the water was so good there that we wanted some more. The food was both a surprise and an experience. Ive tasted nothing like it. Cant wait to come back and try the falooda!

My mom and I were driving through Prince George and we landed late at a hotel, super hungry. Ordered a bunch of veggie dishes I didnt recognize at 9:50 (they close at 10pm) and they delivered super promptly. I wish Id tipped more; the price was reasonable to begin with, and we ate leftovers for days. Absolutely delicious, great service, and some compostable packaging to boot. Id pass through PG just to go here to eat. Top notch.

Ordered through SkiptheDishes because the restaurant had a good rating (8.9) and wow, was I disappointed. The butter chicken curry had a high smell like old, expired parmesan cheese, which was off-putting, and it was very sweet. No savoury flavour whatsoever. It actually reminded me more of an unfortunate pasta sauce than a butter chicken curry. The naan bread was mediocre, and didnt do much to improve the experience. Overall, definitely not a great introduction to Indian food in Prince George. Will not be ordering from here again.

December 22, 2022

The service is absolutely fabulous! She checked on us enough that we had everything we needed, without being intrusive. The food is outstanding! The naan bread was the best Ive ever had. Sounds and browned without any burned spots. The samosas were made with mashed potatoes that were very flavorful and not too hot. Palak Paneer was the best curry Ive ever eaten. The pakoras were so spicy but not hot I thought they were absolutely fantastic. The butter cauliflower and potatoes were super flavorful with the perfect sweet and spicy. I thoroughly enjoyed the Indian music that wasnt too loud. 1 lost star because I pulled a hair out of my mouth mixed in with my butter veggies. (Mistakes happen ) The server was very apologetic. We still tipped because everything else was amazing. Im on the fence about giving them another try due to the hair. I have to say the overall experience was wonderful. I cringed on and off all the way home over someones hair in my food being pulled out of my mouth. Vegetarian options: The vegetarian options were scrumptious and there were so many options to choose from. Dietary restrictions: I asked for cauliflower and potatoes in butter chicken sauce(no chicken) and they were accommodating without issue. It was really tasty Parking: Parking is nonexistent during the day but the evening had lots of parking Wheelchair accessibility: Im on crutches and had no issues entering or exiting the premises

Ive heard good things about the food here, one of two Indian food places downtown I wanted to try. The chana masala lunch combo for about $12 with tip, was delicious and, for me, it was enough for two lunches (although I couldve definitely eaten it all!). Perfect amount of spicy for me, maybe a bit spicy for butter chicken lovers Parking: Angle street parking on 3rd Ave. I lucked out and got a spot no problem.

I ordered from Skip once and it wasnt bad, the Samosas were great, as was the garlic naan. I was impressed because it cost me 30.00 and I got 30.00 worth of food. I ordered it a second time, but this time the chicken was suspicious, it didnt taste like any chicken Ive ever had and the texture was weird, I immediately started gagging. The butter sauce was fine, but the meat was bitter and chewier than I am accustomed to. I started getting sick a little while later.

December 22, 2022

Last night I visited Karim Indian Cuisine This place has nice ambiance, they have done some work to decorate the place. Food served was terrible, very big disappointment. I ordered Soya Chap, Paneer chili dry, Haryali Panner Tikka. Soya chap was not appropriately marinated and was under cooked, There was no flavor at all in it. Restaurant was not busy at that time because there no other table occupied. Paneer Chili: Fail to understand how can some one not cook this dish correct. it is a very basic street food item from North India. Ginger, garlic and soya sauce and three main ingredients to make this correct They served Paneer Chili with loaded tomato sauce and raw vegetables in it Haryali Paneer Tikka was tasteless because of no marination with appropriate spices at all , it was served on the table with huge pieces of bell pepper and onions in it( 3 approx). how can some one eat this without provided appropriate cutlery ( knife). Panner was not cooked at the right temperature and was cold inside when pointed out to chef that it was cold they tried to correct by cooking it again, However it was a disappointment.
