MODERN INDIAN CUISINE
Visited with my family to one of the best Indian restaurant in DT. We ordered Delhi Wala Chana Bhatura, Keema Nan and Amritsari Kulcha with Channa, along with sweet Lassi for the kids and myself Kingfisher premium Beer. The food was marvellous, tasty and excellent quantity. The atmosphere of the place was awesome with Bollywood songs playing. We really loved the food, it’s presentation, ambience and service by the staff. Definitely we would be good again in future.
A Culinary Gem in Downtown Toronto! Indian Desire exceeded our expectations with its incredible flavors and authentic dishes. We ordered the Dal Aravali, Paneer Tikka Anardana, Ram Laddoo with Mircha, and Tawa ka Latpata Paneer, and every dish was a delightful journey of taste. The Dal Aravali was rich, creamy, and perfectly spiced—comfort food at its best. The Paneer Tikka Anardana was a standout, with tender, smoky paneer paired beautifully with tangy anardana flavors. The Ram Laddoo with Mircha was a unique and flavorful treat, adding a nice kick to our meal. Lastly, the Tawa ka Latpata Paneer stole the show with its bold spices and fresh ingredients. A special shoutout to our server, Nandini, who made our experience even better with her warm hospitality and attentive service. The presentation was immaculate, the ambiance warm and inviting, and the overall experience unforgettable. If you’re looking for authentic Indian cuisine with a modern twist, Indian Desire is the place to be. Highly recommended!
Went to indian desire for dinner. Tried their galouti kabab and amritsari lamb karahi with garlic naan. The taste of both dishes was good but mild. Also the serving size of kabab was a little less. Apart from this I really loved their ambiance and service ❤️
“I had an amazing experience at Indian Desire Toronto ! The food was absolutely delicious, with authentic flavors that truly impressed me. The interior was beautifully designed, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The staff provided exceptional service—friendly, attentive, and professional. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience. I’ll definitely be coming back!”
The service was great with a cozy atmosphere. We ordered their Tangy cauliflower and it was delicious. The cauliflower had a nice crispy shell with glazing sauce that was not too spicy but just enough to stimulate your taste buds. Their parmesan Malai chicken tikka was okay, for people who like parmesan but the seasoning was on the lighter side. Their main tofu veggie dish was also wonderful with tomato sauce and added spice. We also had their butter chicken, lamb korma, and lamb Biryani. All of them were good, not too spicy. Overall, a great place to go for dinner or lunch.
Fresh , naturally flavored(with Indian herbs and spices) food, so yummy, rich and filling. Service was really fast. Had a great north Indian lunch on my kid's birthday
Delicious food, nice ambience and amazing service. The pudina pepper paneer tikka was incredible, so soft and flavourful. Ram Ladoo was so innovative- tangy and spicy. For the mains we had baingan bartha, dal katli and my personal favourite, kofta nazakat. Every dish was plated with so much care and detail. Look no further for your new date night spot or a place to catch up with friends. Already planning my next visit!
Loved the food. Tandoori Chicken was good, galouti kabab was very close to what you get in Lucknow. Dal Makhani and Naan was the best we had in Canada so far. This would be the best Indian restaurant I have come across.
While the food is nicely presented, the flavours were just mediocre. The menu seems designed to look appetizing, but more to keep food costs low for the owners. Vegetarian options: Lots of choices
Great service by both girls joti and Nandini< 3
This guys have the best food
We celebrated my mother-in-laws 75th birthday at Indian Desire and it was exactly what we were hoping for. They added some nice decorations and were in communication with us up until the evening. The food, service and atmosphere was wonderful. Thank you so much!
the food was good and Nandini gave a fantastic service
Used to love this place, but recently the last two times I ve been there the customer service and food quality is disgusting. I found a bug in my food but except my server no one was ready to help or apologize. No replacement, no cashback, no understanding at all. I would never go back or recommend this place ever to anyone
Nandini was our sever, great service, great food, good vibe, I mean, what else do you need?
One of my fav Indian restaurants in Downtown, Toronto.
Food was great, we reached late but the staff was so nice and still took our order. Amazing service
Very good and tasty food. Go to place and staff are so helpful and the service given by Jyoti is so great.
Amazing food and both girls who served us were very friendly and polite. Loved eating at the restaurant. Will definitely visit again. Kid-friendliness: The girls were absolutely amazing with our boy.
I recently dined at Indian Desire Restaurant, and I must say, it was an incredible experience from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious, with authentic flavors that truly captured the essence of Indian cuisine. Every dish was perfectly seasoned and left me wanting more. The ambience was warm and inviting, creating the perfect setting for an enjoyable meal. It s a great spot for both intimate dinners and gatherings with friends and family. A special mention to Jyoti, whose service was exceptional. She was attentive, friendly, and ensured we had everything we needed throughout our meal. The owner was equally welcoming and made the experience even more personal with their friendly demeanor. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience. I will definitely be visiting here more often!
Very delicious. Attentive staff. Great options. Perfect dinner
Food is fabulous! Certainly a must try restaurant in downtown Toronto ! Service is speedy, Jyoti was very hospitable
Amazing Food by the host jyoti Naam was just delicious Food
Yesterday I visited this place and I can t describe it. I am speechless about the food s taste, staff service, cleanliness, interior decor!! Loved it!!! I visited for the first time and It was the best date of my life!! Definitely looking forward to visited more times with my family and friends!! The restaurant is best for romantic dates, family time and having fun with friends!!
Food was so good and everything was very tasty and delicious. And we were served by nandini and she is very sweet and nice .
Very good place to have food. Nandini served us with good customer service.
Seriously the best I ve ever had. So comforting after walking around in the cold. Presentation of the food was exquisite. I highly recommend the chai, lasooni palak, smashed potatoes chat, and the lamb biryani. And of course the naan was divine.
Hands down the best Indian veg food in Toronto till date.
We went there for a birthday on a Thursday Afternoon and our server Jyoti was exceptional with the service. The food here is absolute fab! I came back here just for the Pudinaa Peppy Paneer Tikka and it was fab! Their paneer is made in house and is one of the most softest and flavorful one. We even had their Amirtsari Kulcha and we loved every bite of it. The Veg Biryani and Highway Paneeer were hits at the table as well! . 100000% recommending this to all my friends!
One of the best indian food restaurant in Toronto.. and nandini was very nice and sweet.
I am from India and its been an years in Canada and I travelled alot in Canada as well as I tried alot of Indian restaurants in Canada but I didn t find the original authenticity of the Indian food over here, so one day I was at bloor and brunswick then I saw a Indian Desire I did the dine in over there an I tried the SAMOSA thats like stuffed potato patty and I also have a lunch over here , these guys have the best food with good aroma and atmosphere Love this place and the service , the servers was very respectful and friendly too Jyoti is the one who served me MUST VISIT PLACE!
I have been here more than a dozen times and every time has been perfect. The service is so attentive, the presentation spectacular and the food is incredible. Shout out to the mole fish, the lamb and all the desserts.
Excellent food, taste is amazing, Ambience is very nice, you should not Gulabjamun with vanilla.
Great Staff and great food. This was my 3rd visit and food quality is consistent.
Had a fantastic experience at Indian Desire! The food was rich in authentic Indian flavors, with each dish perfectly spiced and beautifully presented. The server (Jyoti), was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu, helping us choose dishes that were spot on. The warm, inviting ambiance made it a memorable dining experience. Highly recommend for great food and exceptional service!
Had the Diwali 4 course dinner menu and it was incredibly delicious!
The food was innovative and delicious, amazing service and great atmosphere
Look like very ambitious!!! But food is tasteless..don t try their veg main course!!AND YES much expensive than food quality.
A must try! Their rolled roti and butter chicken are amazing! Will come back.
Delicious food, great service! The plating was well done. Vegetarian options: We had an all veg meal Food : 5/5 |
Delicious food and creative plating the flavours were amazing. The paneer tikka and Baigan Bhartha were standouts!
We had an amazing meal at Indian Desire ! We tried the Palak Patte Ki Chaat, Momo Manchurian, Malai Chicken Tikka, Rasmalai, and a refreshing lychee cocktail. Every dish was super flavorful and tasted amazing. On top of that, we had the best server, Jyoti she was soft-spoken and had a lovely smile! We ll definitely be back!
We were the first people in that night for the dinner service. Still, they had the food and drinks out within a reasonable time! The ambiance and lighting was spot on for a dinner setting. Food was even better. Our new must-go place in the Annex! Vegetarian options: Homemade-like and tasty recipes. Try the baingan bharta
The food is delicious. I love the staff here they are sooo friendly and always smiling. You really want to come again, consistency of the food quality is commendable.
The best food in town. Great service.
We visited Indian Desire on Queen Street West in Toronto this past Saturday with a group of eight, and it was a fantastic experience! The service was excellent from start to finish. Our hostess, Rozina, went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable and attended to all our needs with such warmth and attentiveness. The food was exceptional the Chicken Changezi and Highway Paneer Butter Masala stood out, with rich flavors that were perfectly spiced and truly memorable. Every dish we tried was a treat, showcasing the authentic taste of Indian cuisine. The staff were incredibly friendly, making us feel right at home. Parking was a bit of a challenge given the bustling location on Queen Street West, but it was absolutely worth the drive. Highly recommend Indian Desire for anyone looking to experience excellent food and wonderful service!
Nice restaurant for peaceful dates that don t break ur wallet. Jyoti was our server and she is the sweetest person u will meet there.
Excellent service, food is amazing. They put lots of effort in every thing!
Delicious food and good customer service
very good food and service (Jyoti)
Best food and atmosphere. Best service given by Jyoti
Jyoti was here and she served well.
Food was delicious but pricy!
Do not order Aloo Gobi and moong dal halwa from this place. It is very bad!
We got the masala tea, momo manchurian and spicy chicken tikka, all three were top class The smokey display of chicken tikka took us by surprise! A must visit
Tried paneer butter masala and chicken ( main dish) idk the dish name but delicious The service was 5 . Our server was Jyoti. She was very nice and felt comfortable with everything. Coming again :) Food
First time going there late Monday afternoon and I had the waitress-recommended Dhabha Style Chicken Curry with some basmati rice. A superb recommendation; hunger satiated beyond expectations! Great atmosphere and service. Waitress was delightful!
Fantastic authentic and creative Indian food and the dal were the best ever, the family agreed. Vegetarian options: Indian vegetarian very good.
Great work by TJ and his crew
Very good service done by gursimran. And food was so delicious
Delicious food and great service. Perfect for a satisfying meal!
Vegetarian options: Accueil chaleureux et courtois! Excellente cuisine indienne. Avons commandé deux plats, riz et pain nan, il nous en reste pour un autre repas!! Portions généreuses et prix raisonnables. Merci
The service and food everything was amazing!!
Loved the food and service
Everything was super delicious... Loved the service by Nandani ... Just keep in mind that you have to wait for items you have ordered a bit more than other restaurants for some reason but other than that the taste is top notch
The food here is really great! We loved each item that we had. Must try!
Had a great experience here and servers jyoti and nandini were awesome
Great food! Great service by Jyoti. 2nd time here Will definitely come back again Food
Really great food. Thank you Jyoti for your exceptional service.
The madras chicken curry was incredible! Shavani was very friendly and gave great recommendations.
Great experience. Nyc atmosphere and good food. Keep it up
Great experience. Thank you so much for your service at late night.
Best service by jyoti loved the food
Thank you Jyoti for your wonderful service
Highly recommend this place if you are in Toronto downtown and craving Indian. Outstanding food!! Their specialty is north indian food. The kababs, changezi chicken, highway paneer butter masala, amritsari kulcha chhole, roomali roti, lassi, everything we ordered, I would rate 10/10. Service was good too, the lady was sweet and caring.
Butter chicken is amazing!! Best I had in a while :)
Food was sub-standard. Service could have been better.
We ordered Ram laddoo and Butter Chicken with Naan. The food was really good and customer service was top notch. Jyoti, our server was very sweet and attentive and deserves 5 stars for her customer service! P.S - 20% off currently on Lunch menu every day. Highly recommend this restaurant!
mimian de bukke tiri baik akiler, baleri kek mukke ale baik akiler
A very good place to enjoy indian food. Found this place out of no where on spadina. Not that expensive and had a variety in appitizers. We ordered paneer tikka, crispy corn, malai chicken tikka and spicy chicken tikka and everything was very delicious to our surprise. Good options for drinks too. Jyoti was very kind and attentive. She gave really good recommendations. A good place for a casual dine in friends and family.
Really great Indian food. The restaurant is very clean, and the staff is awesome. We will definitely repeat. Vegetarian options: Lots of veggie options.
Just amazing.
Hard to believe this is a the same place that the reviews laude and give testament to. I ordered a butter chicken combo on Uber eats and got this measly portion of butter chicken and two thirds of it rice. For $30 this is shameful and gives me zero incentive to patron a business in person.
very good food quality and cleanliness. slight delay in service
The place looks really nice and the staff is attentive to the customers. We ordered the samosa ragda (tiny portion- 1 samosa) which was flavourful. The galouti kebabs were very hard to swallow (extremely pasty), chicken changrezi had too much salt and the texture of the roomali roti was off and it was greasy for some reason. For drink we got a mango mule which was refreshing and a mango lassi which was too thick for the narrow paper straw it came with. Close to $100 for this quality of food seems like a rip off. A plate shouldn t be costing $23, and when you charge that much for it, you should make sure it s worth it.
We Visited last night and unfortunately , we did not have a good experience with the food. The chicken gravy were uncooked And we could taste raw onions in the gravy. The dal makhni was bland and was Not up to the mark and was are served cold.
I went for lunch here with a co-worker and had an absolute amazing time. My coworker ordered butter chicken and I ordered Delhi wale chole bhature that came with complimentary salted lassi. They ve got lots of veg options, which I appreciated. But overall, food and ambiance was nice for a quiet work lunch.
We were having a really good time until at the last moment the manager and the waiters started to give us a stare all the time when we ordered something. Idk if it s true or not but we had a bill around 300$ and they told us that the tipping is already included in more than 100$ sales. The food is good but what made me hesitate to come here next time is the service and behaviour we had been shown.
Service by Abhishek on Gt20 was good and food was amazing
Good must try
Softest Chicken and Dessert - Malpua Rabri was the yummiest!!
One of the best meals Ive had in a long time. The food was fantastic. The service was excellent. Very humble and kind employees and owner. We ordered tangy cauliflower, Momo Manchurian and Malai chaap. The food was really delicious and would love to visit again.
Excellent food, and even better service by Jyoti
Great Amritsari kulcha! The lunch special is worth the trip! Thank you, Jyoti! Food
Was second tume coming here, both times it was great. 10 on 10 . Must try. Highway paneer was too good Soya ke tinke was great Rabri maal poda was great Overall it was perfect
Vegetarian options: Dal aravali best!!! I always get it Food
Amazing food with great service by Rosina.
I heard alot about this place so I visited there today. Honestly everything was good the service, atmosphere but I must say that food I asked them to pack for takeout was not good. I ordered panner Tikka with anardana. The paneer was all burnt and it was only with few pieces of paneer and there was no veggies at all. I would say the quantity is not good according to the price.
Great service, had amritsari kulcha and dahi bhalla which was delicious.
Had the best time and our server Jyoti always accommodates us whenever we come! Lovely place and delicious food
Jyoti is best friend!
Food quality was amazing and specialy staff was so friendly.
My best friend and I went to this restaurant on Saturday. The atmosphere is really warm welcoming and enthusiastic. The owner I believe, Rajani was really accommodating with my drink. It was a jaljera custom made to my liking: no soda and a spiced-herb drink. Taste very good with less sugar. I try to be a very healthy person. I ordered the Bhuna Lasoon ka baigan bharatha - roasted eggplant, garlic and sweet peas. The dish looked appealing, but was not spicy. I added 2x hot spicy and it was really good. Eating with tandoori whole wheat roti with no butter was the greatest combination. I am vegan and my liking for food is really picky. My bestie tried the I love butter chicken--- said it was missing the tomato flavour but was really good. Overall, Rajani was really good and warm welcoming and very accommodating to my picky needs. Keep it up. This place makes the Indian experience a warm welcoming one. Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian options, but really accommodating.
Staff was super friendly BUT the food was a huge letdown. We tried CHOLE BHATURE 1. The size of bread was too small ( size of poori) 2. The obsession with red chilli ( way too much of it) even of side salad we hated it
Great food and service by JYOTI , Channa Bhatura is amazing
Excellent customer service and foods.
Had butter chicken, garlic naan and tried something called Gulab Jamun. Honestly, it was the cleanest Indian restaurant Ive ever been in. The vibe is great especially if u can get window seats, the atmosphere is very romantic because the plating is also quite modern and aesthetic! Best part is the price is very friendly for such gourmet dishes. A lot of high end restaurants in downtown are over priced in my opinion but I would come here often for dinner dates. All staff are friendly so theres no way theyll ruin your date lol
Good food must visit jyoti was very cooperative
I love the food specially the chicken and the gulab jamun ice cream and i really like the nature of the jyoti she is really a friendly girl so must try this guys
I enjoyed a alot. Food was very tasty and environment was very joyful. Mostly jyoti mam was so nice and very cooperative. I had a great time over there.
Ate here the other day and was shocked at a few things: the price, the quality of the food and the service, and the strange fact that the restaurant was empty. Our food was delicious! We ate vegetarian, but the menu was filled with interesting options. The only thing missing was that the sign out front promised humour with our meal, and the server was more sweet than funny. Just kidding, everything was perfect. Vegetarian options: It is easier to be vegetarian than vegan. The paneer we ate was amazing, but that is cheese based.
The food is excellently delicious and it was very up to the expectations. The staff were very friendly and helpful. As for the experience, the atmosphere was great and music was great as well.
We had dinner for a group of 8 people. Service was perfect. The food was even more amazing. All the appetizers we tried were so tasty and fresh. As for the main dishes, the butter chicken and the lamb curry take the trophy but the vegetarian options we tried (paneer and eggplant) were also great. The portions were on the small side for the meat curries. We are definitely coming back again, highly recommend trying their food.
The food was amazing! It definitely satisfied our appetite. Great great service.
Good service and delicious food. Got the crispy bites, rice plate and the stuffed naan. Lunch menu is affordable and yummy
There is Elaichi in every item on menu and when asked to remove or put none in there, they weren t helpful.
Loved my visit here! Food was great, price was reasonable. Cozy and clean ambience, perfect for a date, with friends or family. Our server Rojina made us feel very welcome and I truly appreciate her hospitality. Would surely return:)
The food was excellent, and this restaurant has an excellent Indian flavour. We ordered a fish tikka and chicken tikka, and it was amazing and the best chicken and fish we ve ever had. The customer service was amazing as well. Next time you re in Toronto, come to this restaurant, please. I would definitely come back here.
Excellent customer service!!! They helped us get our refund from Uber Eats!!! Quality of food is top notch at Owen Sound location.
Amazing food with superb service. We went there on a weekday for lunch and were amazed after eating awesome Indian food. Highly recommended: highway paneer, folded naan and rice with green peas. Food
The amritsari soya kulcha outside the restaurant is tooooo good and a must try if you are coming here!!!
Chef Vishesh is serving really good food outside
Nutri kulcha by chef vishesh if m not wrong was fab!! Please do try here.
Loved nutri kulchaaaa!!!
Absolutely amazing place! Highly recommended and would love to come back again.
Dal makhani is amazing
I needed some takeout for dinner and tried Indian Desire. It s clean inside and has a green dinesafe which is great. I didn t see a dish that I like on the menu but they were able to make it for me. The food was good when we took it home to eat. I d order again.
The place is good. Ambience is nice. Selected food items are great. Still need to work on their chaap platter. Way too soft and not of the proper taste.
I dont have words to explain the taste of taste. Only I could say it was too tasty as well as their way of representing food was awesome. Specially the desert i.e., Malpua Rabri and Desert Desire.
Absolutely loved this place. Some friends who live nearby said its their favourite restaurant in Toronto right now. We went in on a slow Wednesday afternoon and said we just wanted to look at the menu, and they were so welcoming and everything on the menu sounded great and not expensive despite the upscale atmosphere. So we stayed and we had the undivided attention of the staff who were flexible to discuss options as long as we wanted and then recommended a custom version of something that was not exactly on the menu. I cant describe how good it was! All around a fantastic experience.
Found cockroach in my food. Disgusting I was a regular customer but now everything changed.
Good Food .! and service.!!! The staff is very nice.
MUST VISIT Indulging in the culinary delights of INDIAN DESIRE was a true feast for the senses. From the moment we stepped in, the aromatic spices tantalized our taste buds and transported us to the streets of India. Each dish was a masterpiece, bursting with authentic flavors and vibrant colors. The attentive staff and cozy ambiance made our dining experience unforgettable. We left with satisfied appetites and hearts full of appreciation for the culinary journey we embarked on at INDIAN DESIRE.
Great place, food, people and ambiance. We had Dahi Bhalla, Paneer Tikka, Dal Makhni, Kadhai Paneer, Baigan Bharta, mix breads and mango lassi. Everything delicious. Thank you for this lovely meal.
Food & atmosphere was Top Notch. Thanks Jyoti for the warmth & generosity. Dal Aravali is a must try. Food : 5/5
Awesome ambiance with SUPER tasty food. Amritsari Kulcha Lunch Combo is a must try. Very polite and generous staff. 5 STARS
service was really great ! they comp d the mango lassi bc they forgot we ordered it. food tasted great, naan was addicting. recommend if you have extra bucks to spare in this economy but prices are relatively reasonable given its location <3
I came for uber pickup, they awaited me a lot, at the same time I asked for washroom, but employee said washroom is blocked. However, they are keep allowing their customers for washroom uses
Authentic Indian food! It had been ages since I had good baingan ka bharta (roasted eggplant) in Canada but this place fulfilled that craving. All the dishes were modernized but had their roots strongly in the Indian cuisine values of spices and wholesome unison.
Great food, good ambience, although time taken get food is more. Enjoy your time here having some great indian food. Try the mutton rogan gosh which is superb !!! Vegetarian options: its hard to find something vegetarian in Toronto, so when i came here it was a surprise to me. Loved the paneers, and rotis and appetizers
The restaurant impressed us with its cleanliness, and the food was beautifully presented. I believe there is room for improvement in the taste of the butter chicken dish.
Rojina recommended the chole bhature which were awesome! Very fresh and authentic. Must try!!
The best indian restaurant in owen sound. Best experience and taste. Chef Khushan knows the authentic taste. Ram laddu and chana bhatura was the best. Highly recommended. Food : 5/5
Flavourful tasty food and excellent attentive service. Unfortunately the owner or manager decided to take over a table near us and talk loudly on his phone for ages. And why is there a Christmas tree in March?!
Very nice service and delicious authentic food. Well be back!
The food here is simply delightful- Already longing for another visit and have Malai chaap! Its definitely getting added to my list of places to revisit. Ask for there recommendations before ordering! Food : 5/5
Exceptional service and delicious food make this our favorite spot! Rosina is the best server weve ever had. Highly recommended!
I visited numerous places but this place is amazing I tried their malpue and special dish ram laddoo its really delicious; moreover the customer service is excellent. Highly recommend this place and would like to visit again to try more cuisines
Awesome place to have Indian food in Toronto They have excellent customer service and delicious cuisines. Highly recommend this place to try authentic Indian food
Highly recommended! Indiandesire offers an unparalleled Indian dining experience by in Toronto Downtown . The menu caters to various diets with a range from vegetarian to gluten-free with Amazing Non-Veg options.Prices and Quantity are impressive. Our server was both efficient and delightful, remembering our requests flawlessly. Must visit
I visited this restaurant for my fiancés birthday and were thoroughly impressed! The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making excellent suggestions that greatly enhanced our dining experience. Each dish was flavorful and authentic, capturing the essence of the cuisine perfectly. The ambience of the restaurant added to the overall wonderful experience. We left feeling delighted and satisfied. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a genuine and enjoyable meal
Service is gudd by shivani
If you want to waste your money i ll recommend this restaurant. They are very good at cheeting. Prices are double and make double money with same food that is available everywhere at cheaper prices
The food was good. Took almost 30 min to get an appetizer even when the restaurant was empty. The service could have been better in terms of cooking time.
I ve been here twice and both times have been very impressed, both by their food and by how warm, friendly, and accommodating the staff are. I felt right at home and could easily become a regular here. I chose one of the lunch specials butter chicken, rice, and a drink for $13.95, which I thought was really reasonable. Did not disappoint! The butter chicken was delicious and the portion size perfect. My friend ordered saag paneer, which was also very tasty. There are many great vegetarian and vegan options, and if you have dietary restrictions they will help you figure out what you can eat. The ambience and set-up is lovely - peaceful, tasteful, and comfortable. I think this is becoming one of my go-to restaurants. Vegetarian options: There are a number of vegan options and vegetarians are certainly not an afterthought like they are many places. In fact, instead of meat being the default, they had a non-vegetarian section of their menu! Dietary restrictions: They are patient and flexible and will help you figure out what you can eat.
The food was delicious , they had even dumpling momos beside unusual Indian dishes. The only thing is that Chai was extremely sweet. They need to ask customers if they want sugar.
Its really amazing to know and have really delicious food in Toronto
I recommend the butter chicken, the garlic nan and the samosa. Delicious, warm and very presentable dishes.
Indian Desire in Toronto is one of the good Indian cuisine restaurants. Car parking can be a challenge on Bloor street. Well maintained restaurant with good ambience, but service was a bit late. Saw few families around having lunch. They serve quite a variety of dishes, along with liquor. Had been here for lunch, and the experience was good.
Brilliant place and must visit for family.
First time for my friend and I. I had chicken Tika masala. Perfect spice level. Forehead sweating. The tomatoe flavour was deep and rich. An abundant bouquet of aromas. Best garlic Nan.
I recently dined at the restaurant and was blown away by the incredible food and inviting atmosphere. The flavors were authentic, and the ambiance added to the overall experience. Highly recommend for anyone craving delicious Indian cuisine!
Great Food, good ambiance. Service was nice though it was just one server as we went during a slow period. Please note they don t have the service bot anymore but that shouldn t deter you from enjoying the tasty meal.
We went there for family dinner and absolutely enjoyed our time and food! The food was really good. Every dish tasted different and amazing. Yes its a bit pricey but the quality of food is equally good. Basil Naan are must try. We were 6 people including a toddler and qe all enjoyed our dinner.
The place is great even the staff. Very nice ambience. Great food decor and taste!! Will surely recommend everyone.
Simple awesome!! Yummy food, Very fast delivery, polite staff, neat and clean interiors, washroom available on site!!! Must try!! Food : 5/5
I ve recently visited this place and had their Pudina Pepper Paneer Tikka, Tawa ka Latapata Paneer, Vegetable Biryani, Jaljeera, Garlic Naan and Tandoori Roti. Everything was pretty good especially Pudina Pepper Paneer Tikka appetizer was the best in my opinion, also Vegetable Biryani came with spiced yogurt which kind of tasted like Raita but the texture was just like the yogurt with some spices so whatever their method of preparation regardless it was tasty. The staff members were very friendly and quick too. The order did not take that long given that they were almost at 80-90 percent capacity for dine in. We will visit this place again when convenient to do so. One thing to note is that they do not provide sliced red onions on the side and that is an extra charge if you want that. Also would have given 4.5 if that was an option but given all the positives and their hours of operation which is till 12AM everyday 5 is worthy rating. Vegetarian options: A lot of vegetarian options.
Taste is really amazing but the quantity n menu should be more extensive
The food was acceptable but not outstanding. The service left much to be desired, particularly the excessively long waiting line.
Best hidden gem in Toronto! Amazing tasty food, such personable service and an easy to access location. Green p parking right behind the restaurant. The food is absolutely delicious. Everything from the apps to the mains and even the drinks! Must try.
Always the best Indian Restaurant. Have visited them zillion of times. Try Ram Ladoo. Epic best ! Dal Makhni, Veg Biryani and Tandoori Paneer. Everything is good !!
The BEST samosa I have ever had! A must try for delicious Indian dishes - absolutely fantastic!
I think one of the best indian restraunts in Toronto. Taste is great everytime I had eaten here. Not too spicy and still flavour full. So glad they know the difference. Food
Love the food. Id never had Indian food like this before. Its a very interesting take on classic Indian cuisine. The food was delicious and the price was reasonable. I do think they kind of overdo some of the food presentations. I mean, really, do we need to put the deconstructed samosa on a tiny shovel? but the food was great.. so thats all it matters. I couldnt get enough of their butter chicken, naan and roti.
The best restaurant in downtown area! A must try!
Amazing. Nice service and amazing food!
Food is good and all but the owner won t stop speaking to us while we eat our food, like let us eat our food lol
The food was excellent, and the prices were reasonable.
Nice
it was too greasy and gave my family dirarhea
We likes this place overall. I always did early dinner. So, we had good service, never too crowded and very accommodating since my little one is very naughty.
I had ordered food from Indian Desire two days ago and they were helpful for changing my order. I made a mistake while placing an order and when I realized, I called restaurant to change my order because it would have been a waste of food. They explained even if they would change it, it would be thrown away. I got disappointed and hung up the phone. But after few minutes, they called me back and informed that they are going make changes. And they made my day! I really enjoy Indian desire food and quality is up to the mark. I would give them full 5 stars for taste.
Above & beyond.
