The food is prepared to order and the butter chicken was very delicious with complexity in flavour. Basmati rice on the side was perfectly cooked and fluffy. Everything was piping hot and enjoyable.

We visited Roti House again after parking near Subway sandwiches along Queens Quay over a block away. We enjoy spicy Madras cooking, and the lamb and chicken here was succulent. (Mango curry was a little too sweet for me, but the saucy curries were seasoned...perfectly.) Although we could handle “spicy,” I recommend “mild” for anyone who is not used to regular Indian fare. Be prepared for messy eating—with plastic fork and knife! Payment by debit and cash only: we ordered and paid ahead for Roti and drink bottles inside, where there was no space to eat. Sanitizer was available, and masks must be worn to order inside. Two outdoor tables and a street-style /takeout venue was a step up from food trucks at Harbourfront Centre stage, across the street last weekend (where public washrooms were accessible on the SouthWest side). Street cars from Union subway Station carried tourists to Harbourfront and Toronto island ferries. Flat fee $25 parking is available in the area as well, including Radisson hotel facing Roti House on Queens Quay.More

This is one of the cheaper indian restaurants that we have ever eaten at. The dishes were all good and the portion size was excellent. The curries were flavorful and the meat dishes were tender.

Ordered a potato roll. The quantity was good and the food was served hot. The potatoes were uncooked and raw and the gravy was stale. Gave me a stomach upset the next day.

Just ordered take away. Liked the huge servings of the butter chicken roti . You have the option of rice instead of roti but I was never told about this . Even the samosa I ordered was smothered in onion when they knew I hated...it. Place was too small you end up either not having a table or forced to just order them as take out.More

A strange little place in that they never prepare meals ahead of time, the opposite of a buffet in Little India. The thing is, the food is as good or better than any Indian I've had in Toronto. It is totally worth the wait -...and pretty much Take Out Only.More

I visited this place on a weekday for my lunch. The place is situated near the Harbourfront. The place has a very limited seating and is mostly good for takeout only. The place serves the Indian cuisine in a slightly different way. Generally breads and...curry is served separately but they provide curries inside the bread or roti like a big wrap. I ordered their paneer tikka roti. It was piping hot when it was served. The portion size was huge. It took me a while to finish it. But the taste was very average. Having tried Indian food my whole life, I would say that the paneer curry could have been a lot better.More

We had the best butter chicken ever with a fresh roti. It was just very delicous and for a very good price. You can sit inside or outside, but it's more a take away place. Outside it may a little bit loud, but it was...ok. Very friendly service.More

Lovely and fresh, good sized portions. We ordered two veggie roti, one chicken and a potato cake side. There was more than enough food for 4 people. The service was lovely and with a smile. They are happy to make things as mild or as...hot as you would like. Small seating area if you want to sit and eat there and then.More

This is basically a take-out place with a few tables inside and out. You select from a menu board behind the till, pay the bill, and wait 10 to 15 minutes for the food to come, wrapped and packaged for takeout. Since we had no...place to which to take our meal, we ate there. Obviously when you walk in, it would be ridiculous to criticize this place on the basis of ambiance. The food, however, is good, and there is a fairly substantial variety of it on offer. We eat Indian food as our standard fare: we've had some that's better, but much more that's worse. If I lived in Toronto, I would come back. It's a good, informal place to fuel up before a ballgame.More

Excellent place for an authentic Indian meal. The mixture of curry and roti or rice is good. The curries and made on the spicy side so beware when ordering. But we like spicy food so we loved the curries. It’s not a big place but...worth the wait if it’s busy. We found the staff helpful and friendly.More

The food was terrible - we ordered medium spicy - it turned out to be spicy off the charts and inedible! We are Asians used to spicy food - however we had to throw away the food. The attitude of the staff was also unhelpful...and they did not want us to move an empty chair to join our table as we were a family of 4 on a table to fit 3 people.More
