"They serve great Indian food! The staff is attentive, the food is delicious, and portions are big! We had the lamb biryani, potato naan, mango chicken, Karachi paneer, and mango lassi. They were all very tasty and I can’t wait to come back to try other dishes!"
Jolene Hsieh
"What a great place! We found this little gem and decided to try the butter chicken, tandoori chicken, pakoras, lamb vindaloo, veggie jalfrezi and paneer masala. Everything was delicious! Perfect spiced. My partner, who thought he didn’t like Indian food, actually really enjoyed it. My fave was the paneer masala, but honestly I don’t think you can go wrong with anything here."
Lindsay Betts
"Been a regular here for quite a few years. Food and service has always been great and fresh, my only place to go in parksville when I'm craving Indian cuisine.
Portion wise is just perfect for us. Always have left overs so I can saved them for tomorrow lunch for work.
We normally order butter chicken, mango chicken or potato/chicken naan.
Thank you for putting effort and making us great food as always. 🙏
Support local family business in town ❤️"
