Adrak Yorkville

We had dinner at Adrak last evening, and every moment of it was a delight. From the warm, elegant ambience to the soulful music in the background, the experience felt thoughtfully curated. But the true highlight? The cocktails. I’m a gin lover through and through, and Adrak’s selection was nothing short of impressive. Their Gin Paan cocktail completely stole the spotlight - bold, aromatic, and beautifully nostalgic. One sip, and I was transported straight back to the streets of India, paan stalls and all. As vegetarians, we often struggle to find menus that go beyond the usual basics, but Adrak delivered with flair. We started with the Rani Kachori, a perfect little flavour bomb to kick things off. For mains, we shared a garlicky naan, the Mixed Vegetable Sabzi with spinach and paneer, and the Rampuri Sabz Biryani. Every dish was layered, rich, and deeply satisfying. We ended the meal on a high with their Chai Biscuit dessert — decadent, spiced just right, and packed with flavour in every bite. An absolute standout.

I had an absolutely incredible dining experience at Adrak! From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was warm and inviting, setting the perfect tone for an unforgettable meal. The staff was beyond exceptional—attentive, friendly, and genuinely passionate about making sure every guest has a wonderful time. A special highlight of the night was our amazing server, Vivek. He was not only incredibly sweet and attentive but also such a joy to talk to. We had a lovely conversation with him, and his warmth and genuine kindness made the evening even more memorable. It’s rare to find someone who makes you feel so welcomed and appreciated, and Vivek truly went above and beyond to ensure we had the best experience. And of course, the food was absolutely phenomenal! Every dish was a perfect balance of flavor and artistry, made with the freshest ingredients and beautifully presented. From start to finish, each bite was packed with authentic, delicious flavors that left us wanting more. If you’re looking for an exceptional dining experience with amazing service, incredible food, and wonderful people, Adrak is the place.

Nice place to dine - the food quality is good and some of the menu items are amazing, like the masala chai and the chai biscuit dessert, and stuffed potatoes appetizer. I felt the price was a little too much for the food quality - hence my lower rating for food (raan-e-shahi). The only other downside was the place felt stuffy- would be nice if it could have more air flowing. Overall good place to dine it if you don’t mind higher prices.

Adrak had caught my eye on social media, and we decided to make a last-minute reservation. Upon arriving, we were warmly greeted by staff who were already expecting us. The restaurant’s atmosphere was calming yet rich, offering a sense of royal elegance from the moment we stepped in. Our waiter was attentive and offered thoughtful drink suggestions based on our preferences and allergies, which made the experience feel personalized. Service throughout the evening was attentive, although one suggestion would be to ask before cutting or handling dishes at the table, as some guests might prefer their meals untouched. Additionally, the mains took some time to arrive, but they were well worth the wait. For drinks, we ordered the Rome of the East, which arrived with a dramatic bubble presentation; unfortunately, it popped before we could capture a photo or video. They also created a customized cocktail based on our flavor preferences, though we’re not quite sure what was in it. Another standout was The Joker, a bright and flavorful cocktail that we really enjoyed. For appetizers, we were recommended the Onion Bhajia; essentially a spiced, elevated take on onion rings. Paired with the tamarind chutney, it offered the perfect balance of sweet and spicy. The portion size was also generous, making it a great starter to share. For our mains, we had the Awadh Lamb Shank, which, out of all the lamb shanks I’ve had, was truly the best; tender, rich, and perfectly seasoned. We also tried the Oregano Murgh Tikka, but I personally found it a bit bland compared to the lamb, and the portion size didn’t feel worth the cost. For sides, we ordered garlic naan and basmati rice. One small critique: the rice was served in a jar, which felt impractical for serving and fell short of the presentation standards I would expect from a Michelin-recognized restaurant. Overall, we had a wonderful time at Adrak and would definitely love to return.

We had an amazing experience at Adrak Yorkville for an annual client get-together. The service was fantastic — super attentive and friendly — and the team went out of their way to make the night special. They created a tasting menu for our table of 8, and even tailored dishes to accommodate a few guests with food preferences and restrictions (gluten free, dairy free, etc.) while still being flawless with the execution. Every dish was delicious and beautifully presented. You could really tell how much care went into the food and service. Our clients were extremely impressed and everyone can’t wait to return. Highly recommend.

I went there for my convocation celebration, with my partner. Perfect place for date and for every occasion as well. The food was amazing in presentation, taste, Quantity, spice level etc. Worth the hype and worth the every penny i spent. They should have more options in chicken particularly but I guess they have limited menu because of their top notch taste. 10/10 The only thing I don’t like is the way the manager on reception welcome us. Like before visiting I tried to call them for reservation many times but somehow they cut the call or didn’t pickup. Also we had trouble in finding parking space but Can’t contact them. P.S. - I used the contact number from google maps of their restaurant. So we walked in and when he asked I told him about this, in reply he gave me sarcastic laugh and denied that it is impossible. Like Do you really think I am lying about this? This doesn’t make any sense to me and in seconds spoiled my mood. But because It was my big day I ignored and he said we have availability though I can see the place was not crowded at all as it was a weekday! We got the table. But whenever He came to my table I don’t like it because of his sarcastic behaviour, which led me to give lesser tip as well! Otherwise compliments to Chef and rest of the staff, perfect place for spending memorable evening.

The food was unbelievable!! And the presentation is just gorgeous. I have had good indian food all over toronto but this definitely blew me away. And the servers were great and they really knew what items to recommend for us. Everything they picked we loved most!

Beautiful restaurant and atmosphere. Creative display and presentation of dishes. The food colours are bright and vibrant. However, I don’t recommend ordering parathas. And alcoholic drinks are expensive here, for example the price for a bottle of beer is $18 + tax.
