Here are some of the nice restaurants in vancouver.
1. Saffron
They have one dish as Saffron rice ( where they put saffron colour in the rice and the decoration remains the same whenever you go as no one eats it :) ).You will feel so patriotic, when you will see the saffron coloured "tandoori chicken".You cant forget saffron colour atleast for few hours, as the colour will stick to your hands, until you wash it 10 times. Foodwise, this is the best indian restaurent
2. Simply Curries
Well he makes simple curries which can be made and sold by anyone :).Not only this, he appended the prefix "Curry" to every item in his menu. You can have the south indian dishes and samosas here.You will get a king feeling there, as the owner(one man army) is very friendly.
3. Chilli Peppers (Chinese dishes in indian style)
They added the chilli and peppers for mixing indian and chinese cuisines.They thought that this way they will get both indian and chinese customers.Alas, indian customers did not come, because they thought they will get indian dishes with chinese taste ( so may not suit their tongue), and the chinese customers thought that chinese dishes made in indian style will not be soothing for them.So :(
4. All India
Right from their entrance , you will see a guy in indian dress and canadian by nationality.
Inside the restaurant you will find all the paintings and sculptures which are indian by looks, but on tv they are watching ice hockey (not cricket :) ) ..They have all the indian dishes served by foreigners, but the cook is indian, who is always hidden.
5. India Bistro
They love indian music so much that they are playing the same cd of songs they bought while coming to canada.Even the Cd screams sometimes and says "I need change".But they have a motto.Every indian who will visit this restaurant will definitely learn those songs , as he will listen to the same songs whenever he comes. Food is nice but not as good as Saffron.
6. India gate
This is most simple restaurant.You will find real indian feel , when the old guy scolds waitresses.
But the stuff is very pure and served in indian manner.Very friendly guys.The name also suits it. You will find it difficult to get the entrance gate for this resaturent :).So, it reminds of lots of roads in india. The appetizers including chat etc are awesome.
7. Mehfil
This restaurant is in Surrey, the mini punjab in canada.As the name mehfil ( a social gathering), it is big and has cheap buffet, so lots of people as if in a "Mehfil".
8. Curry Express
This is a chain of small outlets in food courts of various malls in vancouver, burnaby, surrey.
They prove that indian food can be fast food as well as they cook the indian food very fast (doesnt matter how it tastes finally).And beleive me, even the customers find it as fast food.They eat one bite and may throw the remaining food in waste bin.So it saves eating time.
For me, I did not like it at all.
9. Samosa garden
A restaurant with a menu which weighs several pounds, and when you open it, it has less dishes.
From name it may sound that you get a variety of "Samosa" inside.But you will find more variety of chicken than samosa."Samosa" seems to be extinct species.
10. Green Lettuce - Again a chinese restaurent with indian style preparation..This is cheap and best.Well maintained.Good service and awesome taste.
NOTE:Most of the restaurants had buffet as well as menu.
..Enjoy
