I chose Vindaloo for catering on my daughter’s birthday and Rajan was most helpful. He understood exactly what we wanted and conveyed our message to the chef - the spread was vast and completely Indo-Chinese Hakka and everything was delicious but not hot (exactly what we wanted for a kid’s birthday). Lot of people asked us where the food was from and we were happy to share the details. Thank you Rajan, thank you Vindaloo! Will definitely recommend…
Vindaloo delivers fantastic Nepalese and Indian cuisine! The garlic naan, chicken chilli, tandoori momos, and vindaloo curry were all delicious. Combined with quick service and warm hospitality, this restaurant is a true gem!
Food was delicious. Rice portions were good, I felt portions for the Beef Vindaloo was quite small. Chilli Chicken portion wasn't that big either. But otherwise, everything was delicious, 2 meat items and 2 rice items came out to less than $20 per person for dine-in. Affordable as well.
This is the best restaurant I've ever been to for Indian food. In fact, it's my new fave spot, period. My friend ordered the Beef Vindaloo with steamed rice, and gingerale. I ordered the Beef Mushroom entree with garlic naan and masala chai. The service was excellent, and the food was high quality. You can tell the chef(s) are passionate about cooking. The food was well cooked, ingredients were fresh and extremely tasty, and the serving sizes are generous! I highly recommend everything I mentioned.
Vindaloo Indian and Hakka Cuisine offers an incredible dining experience. I tried their chicken steam momos and the chilli chicken and noodles combo, and both dishes were amazing. The flavors were rich and satisfying, and the portion sizes were perfectly justified. The staff was sweet and humble, adding to the overall positive experience. It’s also reasonably priced, making it an excellent choice for anyone looking to enjoy delicious Indian and Hakka cuisine. A must-visit spot! 🍜 🥟 🍗
Hands down to every cuisine’s. Great experience with my friends. Food was just amazing. Will be back very soon.
Had an amazing dinner at Vindaloo! It’s always been great to find Indian and Hakka cuisine together at the same spot. Their veg manchow soup was fiery and filled with tiny chopped veggies and topped with crispy noodles. The dry veg manchurian was lip smacking good. I also tried rosemary naan for the first time ever and it was surprisingly very good. With charred bits of rosemary the flavour was well seeped into the naan. The paneer tikka was served on a hot sizzler plant with loads of veggies. The paneer tikka masala could do better with more salt. Otherwise this was an excellent meal altogether. The food arrived super fast and the service was kind and courteous. The seating space was small but was cozy and was very neatly maintained.
I recently dined at Vandaloo and had an exceptional experience. The ambiance was inviting, creating the perfect atmosphere for a delightful meal. I started with their mouthwatering noodles, which were cooked to perfection and packed with flavor. The chicken Manchurian was a highlight, with tender chicken pieces coated in a rich, savory sauce that left me craving more. And let's not forget the chili momos, a true explosion of taste with each bite.
Amazing flavors, super nice temperature and great service
I wonder how they got the ratings that are shown here. We fell for the same ratings and the food was crap! There are much better restaurants in Scarborough that offer great food for a lesser price. Please dont waste your hard earned money on this place.
I made a call to order food in last minute almost they are about to close but without any hesitation they took my order and the food was amazing without any compromise. I really appreciate that xtra mile they went
Very tasty food and good quality and quantity. Parking: Available plenty. Food : 5/5 |

Great spot for authentic indian food . It was super easy to order over the phone . Being welcomed with a warm smile made me feel comfortable and valued as a customer at the time of pick up . Butter chicken & tandoori chicken Momo was delicious.

Great food, great service Vegetarian options: Dal fry, jeera rice Food : 5/5 |
Portion sizes are great and the food was really good! We expected the spice levels to be a little higher. We ordered all 3 levels but even the spiciest dish didnt really meet our expectations. Will ask for extra spice next time!

One of the best restaurant for indian and hakka
I recently had the Veggie Momos and Karahi Paneer at Vindaloo Indian & Hakka Cuisine, and both were fantastic! The flavors were fresh, authentic, and perfectly spiced. Rajan provided amazing service, making the experience even better with his warm hospitality and attention to detail. Highly recommend this place for great food and wonderful service!
My friend Asbin and I recently visited this fantastic restaurant, and we were truly impressed! We tried the momo and noodles, and both dishes were absolutely delicious, packed with rich flavors. The portions were generous, perfect for a hearty Canadian appetite. What made the experience even better was the warm and friendly service. The staff made us feel right at home, embodying that classic Canadian hospitality. If youre looking for great food and an inviting atmosphere, this is definitely the place to go. Well be back for sure!
Great! Happy I found this place!
was ok, dont know what all the 5 stars are about. tried there lam birayani, lamb was very tough, flavour ok not typical biryani i tried before. also tried the mardas curry which wasnt great. Tandoori chicken wasn t good very dry too much food colouring and not done in a tandoor oven
Place is well kept, so clean and the washroom clean, the staff do a amazing job in service and attitude and explain each item if you weren t clear on the menu, now that is a bonus
I enjoyed the food from here, it came pretty quick and food was delicious. I ordered paneer chili and paneer masala. Portions were quite generous, quality was good. I loved the fact they didnt add unnecessary food coloring!! Will definitely become a new favorite spot now.
The food is amazing, authentic flavors and good portions for cost. Pleasant surprise, definitely going back! I had the lamb lunch special and my husband had the chilli chicken. The samosa chat was also delicious. Good service. Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian options. Parking: Avoid paid parking and park near food basics.
I ve been to Vindaloo several times and almost always had a very good experience. I typically take out. I love the Chicken Pakoora, Aloo Gobi, Dahl Tarka and their butter chicken. Be careful about ordering spice levels. Personally, I like medium heat, but it does have a bit of kick if you re not used to Indian food.
I was trying chilli fish dry it was the best service good, and the staff Was friendly
Tried Tabddori veg momos, Saag Panner, Aloo Gobi and plain Naan. All excellent. Came with rice, green Raita and dessert. Vegetarian options: Tasty. Popular with family & friends. Lots of options.
Naan. Chicken pakora. Butter chicken. So good Vegetarian options: Na Food : 5/5 |
Loved the shrimps and Chinese. They provide very good quantity in every dish! Rajan from this place has good knowledge about the menu and suggests as per our taste.
If you are an enthusiast of Chinese cuisine, then this establishment is a mandatory visit. There is a receptionist named Rajan who is exceptionally skilled in providing customer service.
Great service by rajan
Have to rate the max as everything was at the peak level ! I got what I craved for !
Just taste the food once , its a must visit place if you love indian and nepali cuisine
Very nice Indian food especially tandoori momos

I really love the taste of foods especially indian foods
Great food
Never waited 1 hour for food took 1 hour to get our food deliver to table. Dont go if you are hungry and in rush . They treat people based on color similar food for white dude who came half and hour later got before us.
Not going back again
Amazing lamb vindaloo. Chicken biryani has tons of flavour and spices. Paneer makhani is sweet, but I was warned that it is. Staff was great. Small and quaint place. Delicious take-out. You must order from here!
Always delicious , flavourful food and great you can choose hotness levels on ordering app for each dish. A favourite takeaway in our house!
Fantastic Indian food. Tried once and butter chicken was great. Will definitely sample again when back in the area.
Excellent food and very reasonable price ...server viral was really great
Ordered a mango lassi, charged me $5 for a tiny glass. Glass was the size of a small coffee at tims. Quite dissapointing for the price.
Each and every dishes was so delicious, Chicken chili momo was uggshha so good Must try
Great service with friendly staff. Must visit place. There are variety of items available.
We tried this place for the first time recently and we re so glad we did. The taste and aroma of the food was fantastic. We enjoyed it so much that we went back a second time a few days later. We highly recommend the chicken karahi and the beef curry. The garlic naan is a great pairing to go with the food as well. It s not made with excessive oil as you d find with some restaurants. This is definitely our new go to place for Indian food. Looking forward to trying their other dishes.
recommend karma
Everything is amazing, love the chicken 65
Tandoori momos with chicken are tasty and delicious. Plenty of filling with amazing spices and comes with a green chutney.
Testy Food. We ordered Paneer Masala and Paneer Kadhai and we loved them and selected the Hot option for both. Finally, I dont have to drive 10-15 km to get Panjabi food. Also, they gave complimentary sweet which was surprising. I will try their other dishes next time. Quantity is also satisfying with the cost of each dish.
The chicken biriyani actually has chicken in it unlike a lot of the other restaurants. Their food is tasty and the staff are very friendly and accommodating.
Had a great experience at this heaven of indian food of every kind. Must visit place for every one.
5 star notch for all the services here!
Nice place and tasty food.
Oh I love your food. Will come back soon
Good place for dining but items are costly in comparison to other nearby restaurants. Vegetarian options: Plenty of items available for vegetarians.
We had an exceptional dining experience at Vindaloo Indian & Hakka Cuisine in Scarborough, Toronto. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted warmly, and the hospitality continued to impress throughout our visit. We tried steam chicken momo, chicken chowmein and mutton curry. They were all amazing. In comparison to similar places in Toronto, this has to be one of the good ones. Overall, Vindaloo Indian & Hakka Cuisine delivered an amazing culinary experience. The food was outstanding, the service was top-notch, and the ambience was very pleasant. We highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for authentic Indian and Hakka flavors in Toronto. We will definitely be returning soon!
I tried the chicken tikka masala, which is really delicious. I asked for extra sauce, and they gave me no extra charge, and thats why i will return to try more stuff. They have specials every day. July 21, 2024 I had the lamb stew so yummy still 5 stars.
Awesome food and people. I will definitely visit again
I got a great dine in experience here at Vindaloo.

Overall experience 10/10 Tasty food, top-notch service provided by Rajan. Will visit again!!
The best place to have nice food especially Chinese, fantabulous customer service by Rajan highly recommended place to have good quality of food.
Food is good and fancy enough to gain the attention of the consumers. The only suggestion is to lower the food colouring to a level which feels natural. It tastes good and the portions are also decent.
Food was okay but overall I like the service
Such a nice experience here. Best good and ambience. Don t forget to try momo and noodles here .
The momo, naan, and everything we ordered were delicious. Its definitely a must-visit place. Additionally, the service they provided was outstanding.
Great food and service!
Wonderful food! specially tandori momos they were soo yum specifically with green and red chutney . Rajan is really humble and helpful every time we go there .And we recently book catering with them and they gave so much in complimentary and gave the very good price Must go here
It was a great experience rajan sir helped me out with the recommendation. I would love to visit again
I was surprised with how good the food was. Just get some English speaker doing cash and it would be an 11/10. But I wanted to hate it going in, but I can t it s soo good Food
Best Indian Food!! Vegetarian options: baighan bartah, saag panneer Food : 5/5 |

1000 stars for this restaurant, great customer service and great food...also I a picky eater, eveytime I ordered from here, I am never disappointed. Keep it up Vindaloo guys.
Very clean beautiful quiet restaurant and great service, tucked hidden behind the strip mall. Great atmosphere for dine in. The waiter was very nice and my chicken tikka masala was very flavorful and I got take out it came pretty quick around 10mins. Parking: Tucked behind the strip mall.
I had an amazing time at the restaurant and food was amazing . All the staff was so nice and friendly specially rajan and his service was outstanding also the ambience was on top. Vegetarian options: You can get steamed Momo, tandoori Momo,chilli Momo, Hakka veg dishes, and you can also get vegan items
Today, my roommates and I dined at Vindalo on New Years Eve. We had a truly exceptional experience. The Manchurian and mutton curry with pulao come highly recommended. Last but not least, the dessert was superbly tasty.
I was there yesterday and ordered momos/ dumplings, biriyani and chow mein The Jhol momos was the best I strongly suggest to try it They do have 10% off on take outs
Food was delicious and service was amazing! Highly recommend the butter chicken, tandoori chicken, and the malai prawn Parking: Lots of parking in front and behind the building!
A 10 min walk away restaurant which I visited for the first time for a dinner takeout. They have established this branch here from November 2023 and the staff is kind and humble. I ordered garlic naan and mutter paneer (went for a basic combination since its the first time for me). The naan was well cooked and the aroma was good. The mutter paneer had rich creamy flavor with good in quality and quantity wise and they have given 10% takeout off for all the days. A must visit place and soon will plan to go and dine-in here. And finally they gave a dessert in it which is great.
Superb food here. We ordered the chicken hakka noddles, manchow soup (just like Mumbai style), chilli chicken sooo gooooddd and tandoori momos. Totally recommend this place. And the staff are absolutely amazing Food
2nd time being here and both times i have not been disappointed. The chicken Tika Masala is probably the best Ive had in Scarborough, the lamb masala is also a great dish. Chicken pakora for starters is excellent and the garlic Nan with butter is really tasty. Each dish can be made to your own spice level. Definitely will be back .
We like the Veg Manchurian here. It was better than other places in the area, soft and tasty. All the dishes Chinese dishes were good here.
Everything was very good .
Embarking on a culinary adventure at Vindaloo Indian Cuisine, I was treated to an exquisite array of dishes that danced on my palate and left a lasting impression. The journey began with Jhol Momo, a Nepali delight, where the dumplings were a revelation perfectly steamed, encasing a succulent filling, and swimming in a tangy, spicy broth that was both comforting and invigorating. Moving on to the Chicken Chowmein, it was a masterclass in balance and flavor, with al dente noodles, tender chicken pieces, and crisp vegetables all tossed in a savory sauce that hinted at a fusion of Indian and Chinese culinary traditions.The Butter Chicken served with Naan where the chicken was tender and luxuriously coated in a creamy, tomato-based curry that was rich in flavor yet delicately spiced, striking a perfect harmony with the pillowy, freshly cooked naan. Each bite was a symphony of flavors, making it evident why this dish has conquered hearts worldwide. Dining at Vindaloo Indian Cuisine was not just a meal; it was an exploration of textures, tastes, and the subtle artistry of Indian cooking. MUST MUST MUST VISIT
Food was really amazing, and the service was outstanding, we had veg momo , chicken chowmien, and the french fries,specially Rajan was polite and he was quick and very friendly, service was excellent . One of the best place to dine-in. Budget friendly, great ambiance Vegetarian options: For vegetarians momo are the best and french fries was very crispy and tasty
The food was really good.
One of the best resturant.Mango lassi and chicken pakauda is most recommended food. Even MoMo are the best
I enjoyed a good and friendly service with a good food by Rajan here
Vindaloo serves up a tasty mix of Indian and Hakka dishes. From spicy curries to noodles, there is something for everyone. The cozy atmosphere and friendly service make it a great place to enjoy a delicious meal with friends or family. Whether you love Indian flavors or are curious about Hakka cuisine, Vindaloo is worth a try!
Cozy and special! Quiet environment and great food!
Yummy momos & cold coffee
Very good sevice by Rajan. Food was very yummy
Amazing food, great quantity. Reminds me of home. Rajan bhai is the best. Vegetarian options: Good Dietary restrictions: Good Parking: Easy Kid-friendliness: Good Wheelchair accessibility: Good
Ive tried the chicken Korma and butter chicken and its been the best! Ordered online a few times and then decided to come in-person and it was great. Cute little hidden gem with delicious food with great quantities. Definitely will be back to try more dishes. Highly recommend
This restaurant never disappoint.They have recently added new dishes like jhol momos and hakka items.
Good food, good quantity, able to edit order with ease.
recently dined at vindaloo, with my family and it was a delightful experience. The ambiance was cozy, the service attentive, and the menu offered a variety of delicious options. I particularly enjoyed the Madras Lamb and Shrimp Birayani, and the desserts were a perfect sweet ending. The prices were reasonable for the quality of food and service. I would definitely recommend it for a memorable dining experience. Parking: Spacious parking
Their food is always fresh and flavourful. The gentleman at the front is friendly (Ellesmere location), and makes good recommendations on the menu. 4 stars for the atmosphere on my because Ive only done takeout, but the seated area is quite small, but clean in appearance. Food
The food is absolutely delicious and there is a great variety of dishes available. Definitely coming back here soon.
I dined at Vindaloo and was absolutely blown away by both the food and service. From the moment we stepped in, Rajan greeted us warmly and ensured we were comfortable throughout the entire meal. I ordered samosa chat and Tandoori momos both were impeccable and can t wait to try their other cuisine.
I recently dined at Vindaloo, and it was awesome.The staff were incredibly attentive and friendly, providing excellent service throughout the evening. The food was excellent and was modified as required. I highly recommend giving Vindaloo a try you wont be disappointed!
Very good customer service, and the food was delicious. Highly recommended if you looking for authentic taste of Nepali momos.
One of the best chili chicken I ever had in my life definitely recommend this place great service great people great food I love it will return soon
An abundance of flavour! And loads of selection!!
The food was very good and the service was 5 star . A little bigger place will do better as a space.
I visit this new location on an evening with warm welcome and amazing dishes. Loved tandoori momos the most, it was actually made in tandoor you can taste it and not just in oven. Also their Samosas, biryani and main course are the best.
I am happy that I got a chance to feel a real taste as in my home country. The food is too tasty and the environment and helpers around all are friendly. I will come again in Vindaloo with my friends for sure.
Nice place to dine with authentic Nepali flavours. Strongly recommended
Best food Best place for gathering with friends and family Food
The quality, quantity and service of their food was excellent. Highly recommended to visit for the first time then you dont want to go anywhere expect Vindaloo.
Loved the vibe of the restaurant, super intimate and the food and drinks tasted so fresh
First visit to the new Vindaloo location. Excellent food , service and location. Delicious! And much closer to my home which is major bonus! Vegetarian options: The Aloo Gobi was great!
I really loved their chicken momos . The staff is friendly and the food is incredible.
Terrific food and wonderful service.
Incredible flavours abound! The Chicken Tikka was tender and perfectly spiced, while the Biryani was a delightful blend of aromatic rice and succulent meat. Vindaloo restaurant offers a culinary journey through a diverse range of authentic and mouthwatering dishes. A must-try for any food enthusiast!
The staff is very pleasant. The food is presentable and well made. I haven t tried everything as it is new place. Would reserve one star for the future.
TLDR : Hands Down the Best Momo (South Asian dumpling) place in Scarborough Area!! Steamed Chicken Momo - Tandoori Momo worth trying If you are a follower of my food journeys in here, you would know that I m a Biriyani and Momo enthusiast. Over the course of the last few months I have been trying out various momo places both in person and through Uber Eats and Doordash. You would see that I have rated the ones I have tried so far appropriately especially with respect to their taste, texture, portion size and quality of the overall service. Was actually skeptical as I placed the order for steamed chicken Momo but this place literally blew my mind. I paid 20.10 CAD over all for just the order of steamed chicken momos. Got 10 pieces of momo with the spicy chutney and they were really good. One would say that 20 CAD can be bit too much when you actually have places that sell momos for 12 CAD or 15 CAD but I m someone who believes in the fact even if you spent 10 CAD more, do it on quality stuff. Will surely be trying out this place in person and update my review!
Vegetarian options: Less option for vegetarian but it s very nice for non- veg Food
I noticed this place when I was driving by and decided to give it a try. This location is new, about 2 months. Dinning is available but I did take out. I asked for recommendation from the person (Rajan) who is helping me out and I find him to be very helpful and friendly. They accommodated my request for mild +1 and I find it to be perfect balance for heat. I was really able to enjoy the flavour of the food. I ordered 5 dishes (3 chicken and 2 vegetarian dishes) and they were all delicious. I would definitely recommend them and would also try the other location in Kingston & Sinclair as this is the original restaurant according to Rajan. This is a family business and I was told their chef (in Ellesmere) has 25 years experience. It shows in the quality of the food. I will be back! Vegetarian options: I ordered a couple vegetarian dishes based on recommendation by Rajan, the person who took my order (I can t recall the name of the dishes but one has spinach and cheese and the other one is ground beans with carrots and other vegetables, and find them to be very flavourful and healthy. The panner is not as oily as the other places I ve ordered from. They also have vegan menu.
Best place for Hakka Dishes
Always love the food
Vindaloo Restaurant is an exceptional choice for those who enjoy authentic Indian cuisine and are particularly fond of Nepali Momos. The Momos here are a standout, perfectly steamed with a flavorful filling that delights with every bite.
Best food with great service
The food was very tasty & the service was good too.
Liked the food a lot. Their sevice was also very good and appreciated! We had made a mistake on our order and forgot to order some naan and they came out and delivered it to us. Thanks again
The best indian food Ive had in the GTA, full of flavour and good spice. Reasonable prices. Kind service. Clean and warm environment. Highly recommend!
Great food, great atmosphere, and most importantly, great service.
Vindaloo Indian and Hakka cuisine is an Indian restaurant that tantalizes your taste buds with a mix of Indian and international flavors, with a focus on the rich and diverse tastes of India. A global culinary journey with Indian cuisine at its heart.
Just found the best Indian and Hakka restaurant in GTA literally hidden gem for Indian and Hakka food. The ambiance, food and the service is top notch Highly recommended for biryani and Indian desserts enthusiasts Parking space
Delicious food, extensive menu and fair prices make this restaurant an easy pick, all the times. Great Staff. Enjoy working with Rajan.
It was a catering order from me and trust me it was absolute amazing. I would highly recommend veg Manchurian and chilli chicken in this. Highly satisfied.
I have a wonderful experience here . Welcoming and friendly staffs .Best restaurant for indian food
Great restaurant for Indian cuisine.
I had a great experience. The food was very good (especially the naan and butter chicken). The servers seemed a little nervous (since it was their first day/opening day) but I thought they did a great job! They were also able to cater to specific requests like less oil/butter. Very enjoyable.
Amazing food!!! Must try Tandoori & Chilli Momos. The service was really good! Must visit
Amazing service. Good food. Went for the Grand Opening and the owner/manager made us feel special. Do try their tandoori Mooms and Manchow Soup. Worth it.
Tasty food. Cashier was helpful picking something new and the correct spice level. Even gave a 15% discount place to visit.
The food ambience is good. Great customer service
