Venez savourer un agréable repas chez East India Company. Ce lieu apprécié est ouvert tard tous les jours de la semaine. Ils sont établis dans un quartier ou vous trouverez de nombreux parcs.
I am East Indian (born and raised in Brampton, Ontario - a suburb outside Toronto). Brampton has either the first or second East Indian population in Canada. I am temporarily living in Ottawa.
- Service was great.
- Food was NOT authentic. What they served as nann was actually tandoori roti.
- Not much vegeterian food in the buffet.
- Food tasted stale and reheated/refried.
- I think frozen indian food actually tastes better.
In this day and age of mass produced ''dry ribs'', wings and nachos, its nice to see a restaurant pursue more traditional food.
Interestingly enough its an Indian restaurant!
We enjoyed a huge buffet of food, all fresh and varied. No sliced cucumbers and tomatoes here, we're talking real home made salads. The curries were excellent, the usual butter chicken and lamb was all here but it tasted better than usual. The owner explained it was due to the variety of tomato used in the sauce(more on this later).
I don't know about you the reader, but I've had lots of Indian, Italian and french. But I can't remember the last time a owner or any restaurant went to the length of importing real antiques from India to adorn their walls. The decor itself is worth at least 2 visits. Yes its that amazing.
To top it off, the manager, who turns out to be the owner actually spent time at our table. We also noticed that he made a point of visiting every other table as well. Can't recall the last time I saw this in another restaurant. Big points here as well.
Great food, great service and great decor = great value.
If you like Indian this place is worth it. Sure you might like the vindaloo more in your corner of the woods somewhere but nowhere will you come across a more complete package.
well after reading that last review I have to say...
well after reading that last review I have to say i am very skeptical of these ''review'' sites. Can anyone review a restaurant including the competition? I have enjoyed MANY meals at East India Company over the years. The food is fresh and the service is fantastic!
If this person really did have a problem I would recommend speaking to a manager, I am sure this could have been solved, if the reviewer DID eat at the restaurant which I doubt!
The food was absoloutly discusting. The butter chicken tasted like it had ketchup in it and was unlike any other butter chicken I have had before. I have eaten alot of Indian food, and this was the worst by far that I have ever had. Both the chicken dishes were not made with white meat, and some of the stuff in both dishes I had no idea what it was. I was appauled at the quality and taste of the food, especially for the price.
