Excellent flavour and value!! You get a healthy portion for what you pay for, the people are very sweet, and the food is delicious!
Delivering love in the form of food, going an extra mile in terms of service.
I am an Indian residing in India. My younger brother has recently moved to MB CN, to a place where there is absolutely zero possibility for getting anything delivered to him. I had been trying to find out atleast 1 grocery store, or restaurant, or cafe, or any store for that matter who would help me send something to him on the special occasion of Raksha Bandhan (it is a festival in India that celebrates bonding of siblings). I took help from one of my friends who is residing in Toronto to find me atleast one place that could help me make my little brother feel special 1000 miles apart. But all in vain, until he spoke to Ashwini Kumar from this restaurant - our last hope. Not to miss, I was looking for something to be delivered on 3rd Aug, which was also a local holiday in some parts of the country. However, India Palace, did not only accept our order but also took efforts in helping us deliver my brother's favorite food at his doorstep, in person, which was nearly 25kms away from the restaurant, in the right time. Usually I am sure no other delivery apps would have accepted this request at all. I am very very thankful to Ashwini for going out of their way to provide such an exceptional service and being a part of making our Raksha Bandhan so precious. We will forever remember this. All the dishes that were delivered - Chola, Malai Kofta, Naan, Rice - were all authentic in taste as well, very delicious. A very rare thing to find in CN in terms of original Indian taste as told to me by my brother.

Had a takeout meal with friends and enjoyed everything. The Butter Chicken is outstanding, tender and flavourful. Paneer with peas and raita also great. Want to return to try more from the menu.
We just happened to be nearby and thought we'd try the place and we were not disappointed. They have an all-you-can-eat buffet during certain hours which is DEFINITELY worth the price. The à la carte prices are also good compared to other Indian places and, overall, the portions were good and everything was delicious.
The buffet could be a lot fresher, but it is a buffet at a small restaurant and I dont expect it to be the best. But the food off the menus that you can order specifically is amazing. The chicken curry is my personal favourite. Although the mild versions are a little bland the medium and hot versions on their beautifully cooked basmati rice will wow you. I also LOVE their samosas. Some of the best I've had and the sauce is perfectly sweet. All in all the service is also wonderful. The employees are friendly and nice and I would definitely recommend.
One of the rare instances where you get good value for incredible food. The pricing is super reasonable but you can still expect high quality dishes. The buffet looks small but has all you need. Absolutely delicious. A contender for best Indian food in Winnipeg.

Went here for the lunch buffet. The website said lunch was $10.99, but upon paying the bill, it was $15 (plus tip) which is the cost of the dinner buffet. I'm not sure if the dinner buffet is more like $17 now, or if they are both the same price - either way it is definitely not $10.99 for the lunch buffet.
I found the flavors to be lacking something. Everything from the butter chicken to the veggies just lacked flavor. Samosa was really dry. This would be a great place to take someone who has never tried Indian food because it's very toned down / westernized.
The one stand-out was the veggie korma + naan bread which they made fresh. I would have been happy with just a plate of those two. On a positive note, Indian food usually upsets my stomach (possibly a spice they use) and this didn't. If you want more food for your dollar, I would suggest East India Co. as they charge the same price for the lunch buffet and there is a much bigger selection. Not much to say about the service, our server was good but not exactly friendly. I wouldn't refuse to go back with friends, however if I had a choice I would pick another place for a lunch buffet.
Good food. The only issue I have is that after years of ordering from them I now get charged a $10 delivery fee as their limit is apparently 3.5KM when i live 3.6KM away from them. Also menu and website do not mention any fees for delivery, quite the contrary... it mentions they deliver on orders over $25. Other then the exorbitant delivery charge, the food is OK. maybe next time they can meet me down the street which should make it 3.5KM away from them.
Everything here is tasty, and the staff are quite friendly! The butter chicken is arguably the best in the city!
Good enough. Not spectacular, but good enough.
I go there more out of convenience than anything else.
Better than Charisma, but they're no Clay Oven : )
Alright. Checked out India Palace this evening. Fairly good reviews online, tried the buffet. Wasn't a fan of the rice with chicken broth base. Butter chicken was good with full peices of chicken. Naan bread made fresh comes to the table hot. Over all a good experience worth a visit, but will check out another place next time.

Hospitality of India. My partner and I just bought a condo in the WestEnd and one of the big attractions to the area is the variety of ethnic foods you can get in the neighbourhood. India Place was on the list of recommendations from friends of places to check out. I have to say as far as places to eat go we are off to a good start. The customer service for us was perfect the waiter made helpful suggestions and was quick to fill drink glasses; the hostess was wonderfully welcoming and sat us promptly. The food is good quality (tandoori chicken particularly good) and they don't skimp on the chicken at the buffet! First time I have ever seen butter chicken that came with whole chicken legs and thighs in it (mostly in Winnipeg butter chicken is chopped up chicken in sauce) The curries tend to be a bit more tomato based then other places. That is neither a good or bad comment on my part just what I noticed from eating the food. Nan was hot and fresh and it is one of the better prices for an Indian Buffet in Winnipeg. While I have heard of some complaints with other Indian establishments in the city shorting on takeout orders I don't think you would need to worry about that here they are happy to feed you loads and loads and don't seem the stingy sort, they even brought out food for customers after they were closed at a tables request. A+ for service and hearty Indian fair at a decent price. Will go again. The restaurant also boasts one of the cities newest murals, the side of the restaurant features the Dalai Lama in the foreground of a Taj Mahal back drop and it’s worth a quick gander.
Much Love

Not my Fave Anymore. I used to love this restaurant, back in the day when the food had more flavour, but lately it has been a disappointment. The butter chicken used to be much more flavourful, more garlic, more spices, and the chicken used to be whole pieces. Now they seem to be using what appears to be cubed pieces of chicken breast when they've run out of pieces. The veggie Korma on the buffet used to have paneer in it, and now it doesn't seem to. The samosas are always consistently good as well as the rice, but everything else seems to be ..... lacking. I noticed the flavour of the food had changed about a year or two ago and wondered if it was because of a different chef. Whatever the reason, I am now searching for a different restaurant. On my most recent visit, the owner asked me ( as per usual) how dinner was and I couldn't help but begin to tell her that the food had changed, when she practically finished my sentence. ( she already knew what I was going to say)
Hopefully she takes this to heart and brings back the flavours of the India Palace that I had come to know and love.
Friendly staff & excellent samosas.
Just wanted to chime in about one of may fave Indian Options. I have been going to this family-operated place for 20+ years.still my favourite take-out option.The buffet isn't bad either.not as many dishes as East India or Ivory but the quality is high.Count on tasty crispy somosas, palak paneer,veg korma, chick pea curry,beef curry, butter chicken, tandoori chicken, house-made pickle and if you are lucky you will get a complimentary fresh naan.If you are ordering take out, make sure you specify how spicy you like your dishes. It will likely be fairly mild if you don't ask for the heat.
Mmmmmmm. Love the veggie korma, butter chicken, and tandoori chicken, mmm!

Best Indian I've had so far. I've been to both big-chain Indian restaurants in the city as well as the smaller family-run restaurants, and of all of them, no place can beat this.
They have both buffet (every day of the week, including dinner) and menu offerings.
The buffet is what I tried, and I was pleasantly surprised by the selection. The best things in my opinion were the Samosa, the Curry Beef, and the Tandoori Chicken. Loved them.
There was also this thing on the buffet, I didn't catch the name of it, but it was made out of potato, was round like a patty, but more of a dumpling, and it was spicy. That had to be one of the greatest things I've eaten. This is one of the same items they give out at the fringe fest on the cart.
The staff was quick to clear plates and asked us numerous times if there was anything else we needed.
Now I've read on other sites that the decor was dated, but they obviously recently renovated the place because the decor was very modern. Everything looked new. If this is what people call dated, they're gravely mistaken! It wasn't in any kind of "70s style" or anything of the sort. Very nice environment to dine in.
Venture to West End to try this place. Definitely worth it, and the price is right for the amazing meal you get.

Very good curries. I've been to India Palace quite a few times, both for the menu and the buffet. The buffet is quite good, albeit small, and has a lot of your standard Indian dishes in it that are done well. But the real gem of this restaurant isn't the buffet - it's one of those Indian restaurants where you're much better off ordering from the menu to really enjoy some delicacies.
Some of my highlights from the menu include the vegetable korma (filled with sweet raisins and tasty cashews), mutter paneer (homemade cheese and peas in a creamy curry sauce), and malai kofta (vegetarian balls in yet another creamy sauce - this one is a must-have). The vegetarian dishes are almost all fantastic, but the meat dishes are not to be missed! You will not be disappointed by any of the beef, lamb, chicken, or seafood dishes. The standard spice level is mild, which is good for new curry fans, but I prefer mine medium-spicy - just the perfect level of chili spice!
If you're adamant on enjoying the buffet, make sure to try a bit of everything - the vegetable curry is quite nice, and the butter chicken is as good as any I've had.
The naan is not the best that I've ever had (it's thin and dense and doesn't sop up as much curry as I'd like), but try the chappattis or veggie parathas for something new. If you're eating in the restaurant (which I recommend - it was newly remodeled and is quite lovely), make sure to try their Indian beer - surprisingly crisp and refreshing, and cuts right through the curry.
Great curries. This place is my favourite Indian restaurant in the city. I've found within the past year most places seem to be watering down their curries. India palace always has the rich flavour that curries should have.
Among the best Indian food in the city. Stay away from the buffet (and boring butter chicken and chick peas) and you will be happy with you meal! If you like spice, be sure to let them know and you will get some heat.
Outstanding - best Indian food in the city. I love India Palace and specifically recommend the buffet as the best option.
The samosas are to die for - the perfect balance of crispy fried outer shell and tender spicy filling.
Both the Butter Chicken and Tandoori chicken are so flavourful and tender that this must be where good chickens go when they die.
Also a favorite of mine is the Vegetable Korma, which is rich, homey and filling.
As for the person who previously posted that their take-out wasn't spicy, I'm wondering if he or she noticed the take-out menu indicates you should let them know if you want your food mild, a touch spicy or spicy? You controle the heat!

India Palace is so fantastic! I’m eating it right now, and the Aloo Gobi is so so good, and the samosas always taste fresh and good. Thanks for the amazing food friends. Thought I’d leave you a review today. Eaten your food many times, but, today is the day I celebrate you. Om Shanti Shanti Shanti

Yummy Butter Chicken! Nice chicken breast without bones in a creamy sauce. Veggie samosa's are also really delicious!
