This was our first time ordering from this restaurant and we got pork tenderloins coconut chicken and lamb Popsicles for takeout. The coconut chicken was very good the chicken was very soft and tender and flavourful and the curry that the pork tenderloins were in was very delicious. my partner and I would say that this is the best Indian food we have ever eaten. Do you lamb Popsicles could have been a bit better but I think it is because we ordered pick up and it got a little cold before we ate the food. The potatoes under the lamb Popsicles were very tasty.
Vij's is an experience!
[Location and Parking] it was a 7 minute walk from the Skytrain, which wasn't bad at all. It's on a busy bus route as well. Not sure if they have their own lot, but there's plenty of parking in the area,
[Accessibility] there's a ramp to the front entrance, and there's a lower level with washrooms that is wheelchair friendly. Some steps to a second level.
[Atmosphere] it was busy at 8pm on a Saturday. They play good Indian music at a comfortable level for conversation. The decor is classic, and the mood is set nicely with tea lights.
[Service] Top notch service! I really appreciated how mindful and accommodating they were of our food allergy. Everyone working there was very kind and helpful, especially Becca, who served us.
[Food] the pork spoon with apple-mint chutney and the lamb Popsicles were super delicious. Everything we ate played with every part of the taste buds.
I highly recommend Vij's!
I thought this place would be good but I didn't expect it to be this good. I don't know if I'm being dramatic but I think this was probably in the top 3 of the best foods I've ever had.
Also the service was great! Everyone was super professional and although the restaurant was nearly full, I felt like we were the only ones there based on how well our servers treated us. They also offered us a cup of hot chai as we sat down which was much needed coming in from the -10°C snowy weather outside!
The portions here are fantastic and I cannot stress enough how good the food is. I don't even know which of the three dishes that we ordered was my favourite because they were all so good.
Also the cocktail list was a great surprise! An extensive list of specialty cocktails that all sounded delicious and the few that we had were delicious.
I wish we could have had one of everything on the menu. I can't wait to come back!!
The food was excellent. We were greeted warmly from the start, and received complimentary tea and snacks. The “lamb popsicles” were out of this world amazing! The tea was really aromatic and reminded me of my grandmothers tea. Will definitely go here again when I visit Vancouver again. Please go- even if Indian food isn’t your favourite!
From the moment you walk in you feel welcomed. Dinner for two rang in under $150 drinks included. Worth every Penny. They bring around chai and some little appetizers while you’re ordering. There is ample staff about to pour your water and clean your table between courses. Everything was absolutely delicious. Highly recommended.
The lure of the lamb popsicles brought me in and they did not disappoint. I hadn’t been back in 5 years and the lamb popsicles still tasted just as good as i remembered them. We also had goat curry and it had a nice kick to it. The service was excellent they started us off with a complimentary appetizer and chai which was a nice touch, or as they call it Chai Tea which means tea tea. And we finished it off with some warm golab jammun which were excellent. If there is one dish you are going to order. Order the lamb popsicles and add a couple more to your order. You will not regret it.
