Accidentally came across this outlet while searching for food options near West Broadway, Kitsilano. Was indeed tempted inside by their thali menu advertised outside. Had a look at their menu and decided to go with their thali.
It has lamb curry(I gave up the option of butter chicken), basmati rice, veg malai kofta, butter naan(bread), salad and pineapple in aamras(mango sauce).
The meat was succulent and extremely well-cooked and delicious. The rice was flavorsome and a treat. The bytter naans were extremely well paired with the kofta and lamb curry gravies.
Ambience was simplistic, which you have to expect at this reasonable price range of 12.5$ for their non-veg thali. Service can be improved a bit with regards to response times. Overall, highly recommended for their truly delicious Indian cuisines. Might very well be one the best north-Indian cuisine options in Vancouver. Highly recommended.

The taste of the food was great. The atmosphere fear could be better but the food makes that up. I had naan and some spinach with cheese and it was awesome.
The food is incredible: the spices are out of this world, the portion sizes are huge and the taste is just spectacular. This is officially my favourite restaurant.
Seriously delicious. Takeout is the way to go with this place because that way you get free rice or naan! But for real. So. Delicious. Especially the lamb vindaloo.
The lunch meal combo during the happy hours (till 3.30 pm) is really good. The variety is great for that meal. The meal is filing. I loved the butter chicken and the tandoori chicken. The creamy mango-pineapple dessert they served was also satisfying. :D. By far, one the best Indian restaurants in Vancouver, though I am yet to try Salam and other fancy ones. Spice and flavours quality are comparable to the best ones, I had back in India.
This place is one of my favorites! Huge portions of very tasty curries; everything that i've tried on the menu so far is delicious. The service is a little slow and untrained but it has not affected my experience negatively so far. My favorite is the vegetarian appetizer platter and the chicken korma with some garlic naan.
Edit: Their service has gone from charmingly bad to annoyingly horrible during my last visit. I found a hair in my curry and pointed it out to the waitress. She went and whispered something to the managed and proceed to ignore me. When asked to pack our leftovers the waitress asked if she can pack all our rice together (wth we ordered separately...). Then when she did pack it separately she didn't remember whose was what and kept staring in awe when we expressed our annoyance. Overall it was very frustrating and embarrassing for a visitor of mine that I had brought that day. I would be cautious recommending this place in the future...
This place is delicious! Portion sizes are gigantic for the prices. We ordered two entrees, gobhi, a double order of garlic naan, and a side of rice. It's worth mentioning we were not aware that the entrees do not come with naan and rice and they have to be ordered separately. Two people can very comfortably share an entree, unless you want a giant amount of leftovers! Overall this place is awesome and the atmosphere is small and quaint. Definitely a recommended place.
Their tandoori roti and channa masala are spot on- lots of rich flavours and a good level of spice! The Channa masala was nice and gravy-like. I requested hot, and it delivered! The basmati rice had jeera (cumin) in it to add extra flavour. My partner ordered the garlic naan, which he really enjoyed. I stuck with roti since I'm vegan. A good selection of vegetarian dishes and many neat ones, here. I'd go back if I'm in the area!
After trying other restaurants in Vancouver and getting thoroughly disappointed by what they would try to pass off as "Indian cuisine", I finally chanced upon Tandoori Fusion. Despite the 'Fusion' in the name, it's really one of the very few restaurants in Vancouver that makes butter chicken the way it should be made!
So when two of our Iranian friends wanted to visit an Indian restaurant, certified by an Indian, we obviously brought them here.
For 1 pm on a Monday, they were pretty busy. And there was only one lady managing everything outside of the kitchen, but she was really attentive, and we never felt like we had been waiting too long, or that she was very hurried.
I recommend their lunch platters. For about $11 (it's $10 for a vegetarian one), you get such an enormous quantity of food, that you may have trouble finishing everything. Each platter comes with either a chicken dish or a lamb, a vegetarian dish, rice and naan, some salad, a sweet dish or a yogurt-based raita, and one piece of an appetizer.
Their lamb curry is good too, but honestly, their butter chicken is the best. They also do a mean tandoori chicken!
Pro tip #1: If you don't do great with spicy food, go for the 'low spice' version. I found their medium to be rather too hot for my taste.
Great little find. Great little spot. Large servings, which could mean that food is average, but in this case the food was delicious and rich.
Lamb tika masala, cod curry, mushroom matter, and the naan. Also the appetizer platter was a great start. Highly recommend.
