Thali

Food and service were amazing! Will definitely go again. The weather was -30C the day we went and the restaurant set up resulted in a giant cold draft coming through the front tables every time the door opened - which was often. Many patrons were dining in our jackets. Suggest the restaurant hang curtains to separate the entrance from the dining area.

This is overall my favourite Indian restaurant in the city. I probably come here every month and a half. The flavours in thali never disappoint and both the vegetarian and the non-vegetarian options are always so delicious and filling. I even picked up their cookbook. Their mango lassi is also top-tier. I’ve tried their mango cocktails, and they were great as well. Always so good highly recommend.

We stumbled upon this restaurant by chance when parking outside (we were originally heading somewhere else) and noticed it was packed with people, which is always a good sign! Only one table was free, so we decided to give it a try, and we’re so glad we did. It was our first time trying thali, and we really enjoyed the variety of flavours. Every dish was delicious, service was excellent, food was served quickly, and the ambience was warm and comfortable. Considering how busy it was, I had expected the food to take a lot longer, but it didn’t! Overall, a great experience. Would definitely recommend & we’ll be back again!

90% of the food was fantastic and very flavourful. There were a few sour notes however. The crab cakes, while made with real crab, had a couple small shells in them, and the texture was not unlike cat food. Nice sauce with them, but for $17 and two crab cakes they’re not worth it. I would recommend the chicken and lamb thali. Both were fantastic. The flavours were strong and varied and all worked well together. I don’t think the fried chickpea thing was good at all, and the spinach grain salad was just okay, but everything else was a delight.

Had the wonderful experience of visiting Thali on a Friday evening. Everything in the Thali (non-veg) was absolutely delicious! It's a great introduction to authentic Indian cuisine - more specifically from Kerala. It's always a good sign when you can smell the food from a few steps outside! The interior is modern and immaculate. I noticed that the food is served in copper thalis - perhaps for Ayurvedic reasons. I appreciate that the owner thought beyond food and even in a modern city, tradition is kept and followed. Strongly recommend!

The food is amazing, beautifully presented, rich in taste and flavour. Four of us came for lunch and thoroughly enjoyed the repast. Beautifully appointed surroundings, efficient service, but not obsequious, it was a delight from start to finish. There was enough variety to suit everyone in our party. We will be back.

It was our first time at Thali, we ordered crabcakes for the appetizer and for the main meal we chose the namesake dish, traditional thali with protein options. The feast we received was everything we could ask for and more! I ordered my thali with the salmon option and without dairy, and they accommodated my request without issue. If your date has dietary restrictions, this spot is a sure bet for alternative choices without compromising on flavour and variety.

We were so excited to find Thali on google and were happy when we saw it had amazing ambience. We ordered veg, chicken and fish thalis seeing the board “meals ready” in malayalam since we are from Kerala. However we were very disappointed to find the thali was nothing close to being a Kerala thali. I understand it was not listed as one but the combination of rajma lentil in a tomato bases sauce, cauliflower in a tomato based Chinese style gravy and avial with just potato and carrot lacked any authenticity for a thali. The paneer curry was okay. The potato and cilantro cutlet was tasty. The salmon curry lacked flavour. Overall does not do justice to the price and ambience.
