Located inside the temple. The dining area itself is in a large hall, with food being served from one of the corners.

For $10, you get a soup and salad, a plate of food, and a dessert.

The options vary day-to-day, sort of like a canteen. You basically get what they felt like making that day, so things may be different everytime.

It's quite a lot of food for what you're paying for, since you get the full 3-courses.

I don't know about the taste since I don't visit too many indian places, but I found it pretty tasty although there's no meat. Has various sauces and spices in everything.

This probably isn't really a restaurant but part of the temple operations for the people that spend their days there, so don't be surprised with how it works. I don't expect it to operate like a commercial restaurant.

This place is tucked away in a Hare Krishna church off of Avenue Rd, about a 15 minute walk from the St. George subway station. I came here after buying a Groupon for 2 dinners for $10. The regular price is $10 per person, and they only serve vegetarian food so I was really excited to try it. I came here with a friend who also used to be vegetarian.

The atmosphere was interesting.. You walk in and seat yourself and the servers will bring you soup, salad and water to start. It looked like they also had some kind of slushy machine there, but we just stuck with water.
The soup and salad were both pretty good, I am guessing the soup was made with pureed lentils, and the salad was lettuce and veggies with some kind of nice peanut dressing.
When you are done with your starters, you go up to the counter to be served. There is no menu but they will explain to you what everything is and ask how much you want of each dish. We wanted to try a little bit of everything, that night they were serving rice, yellow lentils in sauce, chickpeas in sauce, potatoes, mixed veggies, veggie fritters and veggie meatballs made with chickpea flour in a tomato sauce. There were also pitas and papadum (Indian crackers). Everything was pretty tasty and filling. Personally I could've used a little bit of extra salt on my food (there was salt and pepper on the table). The heat level was pretty mild, I don't think anyone would have a problem tolerating the amount of spice. My favourite was the veggie meatball and chickpeas. The papadum was also really tasty.

The service was excellent all through our meal. Our water glasses were always full and they made sure we were happy. We ended up asking for takeout boxes since we didn't want to waste any leftover food and they happily brought some over. We also noticed some people taking their dinner to go in compartmentalized styrofoam containers which is an awesome idea.

After dinner we were asked if we wanted dessert and even though we were pretty full, we wanted to try everything. Dessert was a chickpea flour and cinnamon ball, which was actually really tasty. The texture was interesting, it had a bit of tooth to it, which I liked. Somewhere between a cinnamon Timbit and a cookie.

Overall, I was happy with the experience and the food, and especially the price tag. Not sure if I will go back because it was a little funny being inside a church and they don't serve any alcohol (obviously), so it's not somewhere I would want to go on a date or bring friends that I want to impress. I would probably come back some time for takeout, though. Or go again with someone like my mum who loves trying new things and loves a good deal as much as I do.

Had a great experience. Overall very economical with a 10$ price (tax inclusive). The food was amazing with everything being prepared in Ghee (Clarified butter). Above all the people out there ensure you were comfortable and are having a great experience. Highly recommended and must visit if you are in & around the area.
