Me and my husband love their stuff kulchas so we thought to try their curries. We ordered paneer makhani and malai kofta but little disappointed as paneer makhani gravy is so watery and has thin paneer slices like a kajukatli I never seen this in...any restaurant. I am given them 3 start for this kulchas they are amazing.More

While I have had Indian vegetarian dishes before, this was the first time I've had a complete vegetarian meal and I liked it. I had the Vegetarian Thali and it was delicious, nutritious, filling and inexpensive ($8.49). It could have used a bit more heat,...but my tolerance is a bit on the insane side, so most would find it pleasantly to challenging hot. I look forward to trying more of their dishes.More

This place is all vegetarian, but the food is very good. Although I'm not a great judge, it seems quite authentic, so much so that we (my wife and I) needed some help understanding the menu offerings, even though we're very experienced Indian food eaters....The person behind the counter was super helpful though, and the food really excellent. It's just a small place in a strip mall, but wow, unexpected.More

We heard about Rasoi from a friend -- that it is vegetarian and that the food is good. So we decided to try it out on a Tuesday afternoon. We're not familiar with the exotic names of the various dishes. We got a little bit...of guidance from the delightful young woman behind the counter. We settled on sharing four items. Lentil Soup -- this was very tasty and delicious, and although it could have been a bit hotter (thermally) it was quite hot (spicy). The portion was very generous. Actually, you can choose the size of soup bowl you prefer, and they are priced accordingly. We had mixed roasted/grilled/sautéed vegetables -- these were wonderfully prepared and very tasty. Then there were the vegetable pakoras (I think that's what they were). You purchase them by weight - I think we ordered half a pound, and received about 10 pieces. They were served with a sweet dipping sauce, and were very tasty and spicy. Finally, we had some pakoras filled with cheese, that were served with a green condiment that we couldn't identify. These didn't compare in taste to the vegetable ones. This restaurant is quite small, they call you to the counter when your order is ready. The price wasn't excessive. We'd give this place another visit, and try some of the other dishes that they have.More

It is a small clean place. I found it very disorganized. I had to go to the cashier to ask for few different things that were missing from our order.

Well, the positive reviews here are because you don't have many options around for Indian food. Pros: One out of only few Indian restaurants. Cons: 1) The portions are too less for the price you charge. Even in Toronto you get double size portions for...less price. 2) if you go for a Thali meal, you cant swap your choice for anything else. I asked for rice and sweet to be swapped for Nan but the girl said we can take it off but no replacement. 3) Sometimes I feel being there, some of their low popular curries are used again the next day and the day after, just my observation. 4) The staff there is students and you can hardly expect any customer service from them except while grabbing your orders. Better you should work on your portions for the amount you rob or I have to open one next to you for competition :)More

Visited with family. Nice and clean restaurant. Had aaloo tikki with chana. Excellent. Chaat papri was a bit bland and tasted same as dahi bara dish. Naans were very good though a bit pricey. Curries tasted good and the thali quantity was good for the...price. Worth visiting againMore

This was my first visit to this restaurant. I went with friends who had been there previously and had raved about it. The food was delicious...authentic, fresh, tasty and very reasonably priced. I had a lunch combo (Vegetable Thali) served in a large white tray...with several compartments. I got to choose two vegetable dishes. The rest of the tray was pre-filled with rice, salad (with hot pickle), a yoghurt mixture and a dessert (gulab jamun, a milk fritter soaked in a rise-scented syrup). I chose a chickpea dish and an eggplant dish. My combo also came with a basket full of fresh, hot, buttered naan bread. Everything was wonderful and mildly spicy. The price was under $10 (before tax). I definitely had leftovers. If you think you will have leftovers, make sure you order it as take out so that you have something to take it home in. Note that it is a counter-service restaurant. You order at the counter and bring it to your own table. I will definitely go back. They had the best naan bread I have ever eaten!More

For vegetarian North Indian food, this is a good option for dine in or take out. I have used it mostly for takeout. Portion sizes are fine, though items like Malai Kofta or shahi paneer are mostly gravy, not enough paneer. The veggie biryani is...good, flavourful with actual whole spices. Overall a very good place to have around.More

Lots of choices for vegetarians here (more than I am used to seeing in the standard Indian restaurants in London): breads, curries (lentil, chickpeas, potatoes, spinach/paneer, plus more), appetizers and desserts/savoury snacks. Everything looks and tastes very fresh, and the place is always busy with...mainly Indian people, from single customers, to families, and friends dining out. The place is designed mainly for take out it seems. The dining area is very basic, with maybe 7 or 8 tables? Nothing fancy, but it is clean and there is free water in jugs and lots of napkins, so it is comfortable and convenient to eat in, if you desire to do so. There is a TV that seems to be showing some type of Bollywood style of movie or something. There is a display area for the hot, ready to serve curries on one side of the counter, and then desserts/savoury snacks on the other side counter. You order at the cashier and then someone goes into the kitchen to prepare it and pack it for you, or they put it on a tray for you to eat in.The menu is quite extensive, and some of the stuff we had not heard of before,as this is quite different than our usual Indian restaurants here, so we asked a lot of questions. The staff were good with answering but it was very busy- it worked more smoothly for us the second time we went, as we knew the routine of how to order, and what we liked. It might have been easier for us if there had been photos and more descriptions of each item on the menu, which is basically a take out menu...the appetizer selection was very extensive and we had quite the time navigating what we wanted to try that first time, there were so many choices. I decided in my head that I would just take a couple of risks, and then return to try the other stuff another time! Our favourites so far are the breads (they are all good- especially the naan, plus this puffy, deep friend bread that everyone in the restaurant seemed to be ordering- not sure of the name of this bread), and three curries: lentil, chick pea, potato. My 11 year old daughter loves the chick pea curry the best (be careful though- it is pretty spicy). The deep fried savoury snacks were also very tasty, as were the jalebi and other sweets. We have an Indian friend who introduced us many years ago to these types of Indian snacks and sweets by sharing some of her boxes she got when there was a celebration or party- these sweets and fried snacks taste exactly how I remembered them. They even have the beautiful decorated boxes for the desserts to take home or give as a gift. The owners/staff are very friendly and seem eager to grow the business. I highly recommend trying this place out- really excellent food.More

I was so pumped when I saw this pop up a few months ago and decided to give it a try when I had a hankering for some curry takeout. This place is vegetarian Pakistani cuisine...similar to what you would find at the Indian restaurants...in town but instead counter service style ordering with a seating area. It was packed when I arrived and didn't stop. We got 3 veggie thalis, pakoras, garlic naan and some sweets all for $45. It was all so good and fresh! Totally cured my curry craving. The employees were friendly and explained what a few of the dishes were that I hadn't heard of. I'm going to be a repeat customer for sure and hope they do well!!! Yum!!!More
