Indian Street Food Co.

Amazing food, workers incredibly sweet, interior is very peaceful and well decorated. I love it!

Visited this place for lunch with a group. The service overall was pretty good. In the appetizers lasooni gobi was excellent. Samosa chaat was also good. Ordered butter chicken but found to be a little bit more on the sweeter side. Ras malai to finish of was also nice. Overall the food was really good. Halal

Had a variety of dishes with 4 friends. Everyone thought everything was delicious but the Biryani, Palak Paneer and Baingan Bharta were the standouts for sure. Service was prompt, helpful and kind. Will be back

Called to make a reservation and was told kids under 6 aren’t allowed on the weekends. Ridiculous! They claim to be a “fine dine” but seem to be little more than a hole-in-the-wall with a nice Instagram presence.

Needless to say, we won’t be going there and don’t care what the food tastes like.

WOW. I ordered Delivery, and opening the Biryani and Chicken Tikka Massala, gave me the aroma of being in India. The taste was eating in a side road food stand.

This place has such an authentic touch to its food that it really takes you back to India. It serves really good North Indian dishes and the service pretty much adds to why its worth 5 stars. We were serviced by Tarun and despite being new there, he was absolutely great; friendly, polite, and kind. The service was pretty much on time and the ambience adds the last magic touch. Much recommended and of course worthy of repetitive visits.

Went there for a quick bite and realised it was more of a fine dine place. Will go there again for the full meal.

I was looking for a fine dining experience with art of food and heard that this restaurant got the Michelin recognition so I had to try it. The ambience is beautiful, the dishes are delicious and the patio was cozy. Must try the Prawn curry, Samosa, Daal, Spicy lamb chops and Eggplant fries. This really is a hidden gem on Bayview. We had an amazing experience and will be going back as we live right around the corner.

DO NOT GO HERE! AVOID AT ALL COSTS!
The ambiance at Indian Street Food and Company was disappointing. The restaurant was incredibly loud, despite the absence of any music. The limited space was overcrowded, making it difficult to have a conversation.
Upon entering the establishment, I found it to be alright, although a bit crowded. It seemed manageable at first.
Unfortunately, the service at Indian Street Food and Company was terrible. I encountered an issue with the food, as I discovered a hair in one of the dishes. When I brought it to the attention of the server, their response was highly unprofessional. They implied that I had placed the hair in the food myself, despite the obvious mismatch in hair color. Neither the staff nor the owner offered any apologies for the inedible food.
I ordered several dishes, including the goat vindaloo, chana masala, pav bhaji (which had a hair in it), cod curry, chicken 65 (with overcooked and tough chicken), peas rice (containing small stones), and naan. The presentation of the dishes was unremarkable, and the taste was overshadowed by the presence of inedible substances.
Unfortunately, the only standout aspect of the food at Indian Street Food and Company was the abundance of inedible substances found in the dishes.
The overall value for the price paid was extremely poor. The experience was far from satisfactory, and the quality of the food did not justify the cost.
I would not recommend Indian Street Food and Company to others. It would be wiser to explore other restaurants with similar ratings but better quality and service. Instead, I suggest supporting local Indian businesses like Karaikudi Chettinad Indian Restaurant, where you are likely to find superior food and a more respectful environment.

PS: I was about to take the picture of the hair when the server hurriedly took the plate away. So unfortunately no pictures.

Joke of a samosa chaat, $16 for 2 samosas floating in a couple of tbsp mysterious liquid (NOT Chutney) not a single Chana or potato in sight. We unfortunately wasted nearly $50 on these here, and this post is a PSA so you don’t wink
If you have never had Indian food please don’t go here, they will ruin it for you for ever.
If you love Indian food, don’t go here because you know what not to eat.

Good food. Service delayed even after being the only customer in the hotel. Tea tastes more like water (I would never recommend it) starters and main course comes at the same time even after telling the waiter to bring main course later. Long wait for food.

Excellent food, excellent service and pleasant ambiance made for a delightful dining experience

Loved the food. Great service. Both veg and non veg selections were flavourful, served hot, presented well and enjoyed by all.

Adding a 20% gratuity to the bill automatically for a 3 person table and "justifying" it with a fact that it is a "standard procedure" after, allegedly, a Michelin Certification is non-sense.

The food is alright, but definitely not on a Michelin level. Service, in turn, was very mediocre. Tips are given for the service to the waiters, not to chefs for the food because that's what I am paying for in the first place.

Let customers decide how much, if at all, they want to tip, do not shove a check with a 20% tip on it in their face.

Bill was paid. Will I support Indian Street Food by ever going there again or recommending it to anyone? Highly unlikely.

P.s. Pii Nong Thai next door is a fantastic alternative, with service that is miles better.

Responding to your response:

Food was good enough to come back. However, instead of refunding a few dollars here and there, work with your staff on the service they provide in the restaurant that was recognized by Michelin. Because there are plenty of people complaining about the SERVICE and not the food.

Pro tip: stop adding auto gratuity.

Ordered eggplant fries, lasooni cauliflower, chaat papdi, lamb thali, coastal prawn curry, rice pudding, mango lassi and masala tea. Everything was pretty good but nothing was surprising. Barely any service.

Everything was delicious, both veg and non-veg. We had the tasting menu and it was excellent.

The vegetarian food was okay but the butter chicken was very bland. Even though we told the spice level to be spicy it was not even medium. The hot sauce that they served with it to match up the spice level didn’t even gel up. Totally disappointed with the non veg food. The Ambience was the only thing that was nice about the restaurant.

We thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Every dish was excellent and the service was fantastic also.

Interesting decor, better ambiance when the dining room is less busy. Well seasoned food with delightful nuanced flavours. Will definitely return, would like to go with a larger group as I would be able to try a lot more dishes. Unrushed service. Chef Bagwani was able to chat with us, as we arrived before the restaurant became busy, he was very personable.

I recently visited this Indian restaurant and I was very impressed. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. The staff was friendly and helpful and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. The menu had a great selection of dishes. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a great Indian dining experience.

Don't know why there are negative reviews, but the food and the ambiance is perfect and lovely for dinner or lunch.

Enjoyed a wonderful dinner, great service, atmosphere, friendly and helpful staff. We had the tasting menu, which was excellent!

Outstanding place, best in the city. We like the dinner for 2 and it’s always exceptional no matter which you choose. Tikka Masala particularly good. Staff is friendly and pickup always on time and well presented. Recommend.

Best food with best people….
Food is sooo yummy… and owner of the resturant is amazing person

Fabulous dinner, excellent service and even better food. Laal maas was really good, nice and spicy. Prawn curry a hit too! Will be back

Total disappointment, esp.with the expensive prices. We had
Chaat papdi - this was good and flavourful
Chana masala - this was so salty, it was inedible.
Potato kofta mappa - this was actually good
Garloc Naan - dry, crunchy, bland.
Roti - dry, small portion
Basmati rice - it was decent.
Service was friendly.
Unfortunately, we will not go back.

Got take out today and the food was great! Prices are higher then the norm but I think it makes sense personally for what it is.

Fantastic food, warm welcoming atmosphere, attentive and friendly service, will definitely be coming back (:

Waitress was rude, food quality went down since the last visits as well as the portion size. The apps were decent but the mains were mediocre. The owner or manager also added his own gratuity to a bill on a small table, punched it in the machine, handed it to me and stood in my face until I paid it. I have no issue tipping generously when the service is good, but this is just rude and flat out weird. You're on Bayview, people tip well here already, don't embarrass yourself like that. I thought after they were featured in the Michelin guide they'd be classy and improve but it looks like the opposite is happening, what a shame. I used to be a regular here and I definately won't be coming back. You can catch me at Aafrien around the corner on Eglinton, better food and better staff.

Toronto’s best Indian food. Absolutely well deserved recognition by Michelin bib gourmand.

Wow! Delicious food! Great service! Had a fantastic dinner with my wife there this week. Lives up to the hype of the Michelin recommendation and service was great as well! Will definitely be returning!
