Tried a little bit of their Lamb and Chicken Vindaloo and Shrimp Tikka Masala Roti, The Vindaloo’s were great. The flavor of the curry was awesome. We had order a spice level 3 and although i can handle really spicy foods, this had my mouth on fire. I would highly recommend go with spice level 2 or lower and work your way up. But definitely also try their Masala Fries. 2 thumbs up, but be very careful of their spices. Can’t wait to try them again.

Too spicy. I ordered the medium/hot Bc generally I can take spice… but it’s just to hot to enjoy. The other person couldn’t eat their meal and I couldn’t finish mine! Order the mild or medium at most — unless you have some sort of crazy spice tolerance.

Just ordered delivery… Wow… Shakes head. Food came literally half slopped out of the box… Fine I’m easy. Put it in a bowl and I lost some. So what. When I put the first bite into my mouth I couldn’t believe just how tasteless this roti was… NOT to mention it was in about 1 cm of water… I wish I took a picture but I was that starved I couldn’t even think about much else… Anyhow. This makes one of my worst top 10 restaurants and definitely the worst Indian I’ve ever had!

TLDR; Tasty, spicy food served quick. Interior is a little psychedelic. I’m not a roti expert, but the roti was made fresh to order, the chicken was tender and the spices were tasty so we enjoyed it. Not much else to say about this place. Interior is pretty funky(not in the best way). There are lots of colors, patterns, and textures happening in there.

Wanna have a near death experience over dinner? Order anything from Butter Chicken Roti, but ask for EXTRAHOT. The reviews are true, asking for extra hot is code for, «I’ve got a death wish.» You will not continue to be alive if you eat an entire extra hot roti– there’s no way. I broke a sweat, my nose dripped only a few bites in. The spice was so intense I could feel my hairline peel backwards and recede after I rinsed w mouth wash. You’ve been warned, extra hot from Butter Chicken Rotis is lava on the way in AND out. On the flipside, the portions are extremely generous and so will the amounts of toilet paper you’ll need after the meal… This food was so spicy it was ridiculous… I’m still on that. Can’t get over it. It’s been 3 days and I still have so much of it in my fridge. How could anyone eat that much fire unless they had some sort of tastebudectomy? This spice isn’t even made with the flavorful scotch bonnet peppers, it’s just pure fire. The box is big and the meal is heavy and you get a lot of veggie mush with some meat chunks peppered in. I’d say the meat, mush ratio needs improvement. After 5 tablespoons of extra hot mush, I can’t even with the 4 chicken chunks. That’s not a good ratio! I think this place would be great for a health nut but not your standard roti, west indian food seeker. It’s kinda bland. they’ve got a big menu, maybe I just haven’t found the right roti for mee 4 stars!

I had been hesitant to order because the stylized sign etc seemed unauthentic, but I was very pleasantly surprised by this place. The rotis were fresh and flavourful and had a good ratio of inside to outside. I found the roti to be much better than at other places(not soggy at all, even with delivery via hurrier). Samosa are also good here, albeit a bit over fried. We ordered most things mild and the butter chicken mild-medium — don’t think you need to go much hotter than that, even if you really love spicy food.

Love these Indian Rotis. The curry is delicious, we have mostly called them for delivery and the food is always hot. The only word of caution is that they are very spicy, mild/medium is going to be enough unless you like exceptionally spicy food. Try it!

The sign caught my attention because I love Indian food. I ordered the Chicken Curry roti and a Lasse. I wasn’t impressed with service, the guy was nice but I said ‘for here’ and it took forever to be finished and he was ready to hand it to someone who had takeout that arrived after me. This annoyed me. They weren’t that busy. I also was not informed that you could add extra toppings to your roti. I noticed the sign too late. I also think they should give some toppings for free. Your roti is basically curry sauce, potatoes and chicken and the other toppings are an extra .50−2.00 I also agree with another reviewer about the Lassi drink. I’ve had better from the Square One food court. Lassi should be creamy as well. As far as people whining about spice. Buck up, they explain it to you. Also, the super spicy, medium is more authentically Indian anyhow. This restaurant has potential but work on service and giving some free toppings and I’d be happy. Oh yeah, and learn how to make proper Lassi!

This place is a joke. I waited 35 minutes for a roti. They even managed to mess up the order and were completely unapologetic. Customer service only matched by the prices. Nearly 20 $ for a roti and day old lasi. Not a fan can’t think of any positives except that I wasn’t as screwed over as the delivery guys from just eat.

I’ve actually never written a review of anything online, but I was so compelled to do so with this place so no one else has the same experience. I ordered through just eat and added unnecessary sides and extras to reach the minimum delivery requirement. First mistake! The masala fries were okay. The ‘fruit lassi’ was two bottles of mango nectar. I foolishly ordered my roti extra spicy(as I always do at Indian restaurants, without it ever being too hot for me) and could barely get through five bites. The roti bread itself sucked too. Dry and stale. I feel totally ripped off. Don’t waste your money at this place. I highly recommend hitting up Gau Indian Village on Bloor for your Indian roti fix instead.

Love this place! And love that they deliver, even though it’s embarrassingly close to my house! My only criticism is that the spicing is uneven — I stick with mild/medium because their«normal» medium is crazy, but find that about 30% of the time it’s less spicy than I wanted. Otherwise it’s excellent. The chicken korma is my fave, and my husband loves the lamb curry. Portion sizes are very generous… Easily two meals for me.

Stopped at random whilst walking on Queen Street. Impressed with menu, and the fact you can order the spicy level you want. Had a mild chicken korma roti, BF had medium vindaloo. Both excellent, large portion size. Also had a mango lassi — yummy. Will definitely visit again.

Okay, not happy. I love hot food, I love spicy food. The 3 Roti we ordered for delivery yesterday were inedible due to the spice level. My mouth was burning after one bite and made it impossible to eat. Even my Chef husband who is not a complainer and eats practically anything didn’t eat them. All were ordered ‘medium’, not even ‘hot’. The sauces had way to much cream as well. I put scotch bonnet sauce on my hard boiled eggs, so I’m not wimpy, but this level of spice was outrageous, and it was also very bitter. So we literally went to bed hungry because when I called to find out what the hell happened the girl informed us they were closed and so tough luck. She really did not care at all. We will never order from here again. $ 50 down the toilet.

Excellent flavor and customer service. Atmosphere was clean. On the pricey side however, much worth it. For 2 rotis and 2 drinks cost us $ 32.

Started with a 5 star review but brought it down to 4 ironically for the same reason I dig it. The spice levels are bordering on masochistic. I was waiting for my order one day and noticed an older Indian man insisting that they had too much spice in their non-spicy/regular curry chicken roti.(As if you needed more reason to believe how spicy it is…) Of course I didn’t try his roti so who knows right? I order the same thing on another visit and yup — still spicy. Would appear there is no escape from spice here. Bottom line. Don’t expect to be able to bring you grandparent/parent with the stomach problems unless you want them to get an ulcer. If you yourself have a phobia of stomach ulcers I’m going to recommend that even if you’re saaay– doing construction nearby it wouldn’t be wise to go here more than 3 times a week and I hate to say it. Still 4 stars good despite all that… the Samosa’s are top notch, worth coming in for those on their own even. Good eating all!

Came here today on a walk home from the rock climbing gym. After spending hours at work, it was great to get something warm a hearty into me. Went with my go-to, Sag Paneer, and was warned about the spice. I usually go with medium for my «spice level» but the cashier warned me a medium would be really hot(an 8⁄10 vs the mild 5⁄10). I stuck to my gut and went medium. It was hot, but not as hot as she hyped it up to be. It was still delicious, and I’m sure I’ll be back at some point.(But maybe getting the HOT option, haha).

I’m so happy that living nearby this roti restaurant! It was few months ago that I started to eat butter chicken roti at college St location. I ordered butter chicken with mild-medium flavour.(3 types of spicy level) Compared to other roti restaurant, this one has definitely more chunks of chicken breast. It sure makes your roti enough big and heavy! Yummy This location is new, Just opened last month, With same nice and comfortable atmosphere, very friendly cashier and same amazing, creamy, flavourful taste.

I met up with pal here for dinner on a cold Saturday night. We had planned this meeting a month in advance so I had A LOT of time to hype up this meal in my head. My mistake. I first noticed their first location on College while riding the streetcar, but then discovered that a second location newly opened on Queen(around where my pal lives). It could have been due to abnormally cold weather, but we were the only patrons in the restaurant(with a couple of people coming in to pick up their orders). I had the original butter chicken roti with green peas. This could be due to me choosing the mild flavour, but I found the roti to be a little bland. It was also not too warm. Overall, my experience was a-ok; not amazing, but it wasn’t terrible as well. Good for: roti, samosa, take out

I love the smell of the curries and spices as you walk into the shop. Perfect for takeout and conveniently located along queen st and ossington. The colours on the walls are very warm and inviting and I had very friendly service. You have to option for mild medium and extra spicy. I went for medium and it was amazing!

I checked out Butter Chicken Roti, a new roti restaurant in our ‘hood. They have another location on College Street and just opened this one last week. They are where Burger Bass was for a few seconds. I ordered a boneless chicken curry roti and a pop and it was $ 12.35(including tax). They only accept cash. It came in a cool box. I love love love rotis and this one was just okay.
