Editorial Review
The centrepiece of a Mississauga plaza, this massive, multi-level space fills up on Saturday nights with couples and extended families—at some tables, three generations break naan together. On this night, the feeling is festive—squealing children dart about, and bagpipes can be heard bleating “Happy Birthday.” The dated decor is bar-and-grill meets Bollywood: faux marble pillars and TVs set to soccer. The menu is expansive, the portions generous. Spidery onion bhajia are light and spicy but over-fried to blackness, while Koliwada shrimp suffers the opposite fate: not fried enough. Moist, fat chunks of chicken hariyali emerge from the tandoor, sizzling and sauced with puréed mint and coriander. Malai kofta, potato, paneer and dried fruit dumplings are sweet and swimming in a rich korma gravy. Service is friendly. Mains $9–$18.
