Milanu's Tandoori Grill | Indian Restaurant

We just tried the food today and our dine in experience was amazing. The masala fries were a great start, it had the perfect amount of spice. Then I ordered dal Makhni, and Pindhi Chana Bhatura!! The far one of the best restaurants in Durham, probably my favourite at the moment. Everything tasted super authentic. My fiancé tried the butter chicken with garlic naan and found it very tasty!! MUST TRY SPOT!! Ps they have a hugeeeee menu and also Chinese Indian food which I will be trying next time!!

I was really happy with my dinner here. The food was excellent - very flavourful and just the right amount of spice. I find many Indian restaurants spice everything to their levels, which is usually overpowering. I like heat but prefer flavour. This spot nailed that fine balance perfectly. I usually ask for "Canadian spice" when I order to insure it's not ridiculously hot, but I forgot to ask as I tired and hungry. Thankfully, I didn't need to ask. They cooked everything just right. The only suggestion I have is that rice be included with each dish. If I had known I was only getting meat and veg, I would have ordered rice. Not a big deal but either include a bit of rice or put on the menu that rice is extra. I will definitely come back here to eat again.

This was our second experience at Milanu and the food was excellent both times! Yesterday we had a big group of 18 and the owner was very accommodating, I had only booked for 16 but had 2 extra people and they made it work for us. The owner was very friendly and gave us some great suggestions. The food was super tasty and good portions as well. We had the flaming paneer tikka sizzler for one of our appetizers and it was amazing both in experience and taste. This is by the far the best Indian restaurant I’ve been to in the Durham region. The only thing that could have been a little better was the wait time between our appetizers and main course as we had to wait quite a while for the mains but definitely understandable for such a big group of people. Amazing experience overall and will definitely be back!

Ordered food via delivery for the first time and our dishes were Karahi Paneer, Bhindi Masala & Baingan Bharta. All the above food items were hot and in good quantity. They also looked appetizing. The Karahi Paneer masala was rich and well roasted that had the coriander seeds flavour as one would expect in this dish. It was spicy and I liked it. The Bhindi Masala had the whole bhindi fried (instead of the usual cut pieces) which were crisp and tasted well with the masala. The Baingan Bharta was also nicely made and was delicious. It had the right amount of spices and I have not had this taste of baingan bharta at most of the Indian restaurants that I’ve tried so far so good job on that. The only thing that I noticed was the extra oil in all the dishes which can be avoided but overall they were great. I would recommend trying this restaurant and look forward to trying some other dishes the next time I order!

One of the best places for indian food in durham region. We ordered chole bhature, tandoori paneer, paneer masala curry and super naan. Everything was top notch and as it should be; close to actual Indian food that i have had here in a while. The staff were courteous and sitting arrangement was quite initmate. items are priced slightly on the higher end but certainly worth it. Would definately recommend it if you are looking to rry out authentic indian cuisine in Durham region.

I dont know how I missed this spot for so long. Pure authentic Delhi style Indian food in Durham region! This place is an Indian non-veg food lovers Heaven. We have ordered Tandoori chicken (which came in on a sizzler 😃) so tender and juicy, dal makhni was amazing, and butter naan was soft and tasty. The food was fresh and authentic. I would recommend anyone try this place. It really does feel like food for the soul. Note: The restaurant is clean and well-kept. I would recommend to reserve table before visit as they have limited siting option. Anyone who sees this review, mark my word, and try this place once.

Update(26Nov, 2023)- Top notch quality and service is what Milanu’s delivered to us. We had ordered catering for 25 people for Diwali 2023 lunch and everything was super tasty. Even before delivery, Anurag explained the entire process patiently with every tiny details. It was nice every-time I talked to him and felt that my order is in good hands. I appreciate the suggestions he provided for deciding menu items and assuring the quality, delivery and taste of food. Food was delivered on time with care and portion sizes were more than expected. Everyone loved the food and kept asking about the place we ordered from. I was busy at hosting so forgot to take pictures of lip smacking food to post for this review. Menu Items we picked - Starter - Veg Kebabs and Kurkuri Gobhi Main dishes- Paneer Masala, Aloo Matar Paneer & Daal Makhni Rice - Peas Pulav Raita - Boondi Raita Bread - Butter Naan Salad - Garden Salad Dessert - Gulab Jamun I had dine in experience prior to this with Milanu’s and I have always loved the authentic Delhi food. Their Chhole bhature are best in GTA. We will perhaps always use Milanu’s for catering from now onwards and highly recommend that anyone looking for catering or dine in or takeout for authentic Indian food, go for them without a doubt! Lastly, A big and heartfelt THANK YOU to Anurag and his team for delivering best quality and service. Old Review- One of the best authentic indian tasting food in Durham. They make everything super tasty and food portions are great. I have tried aloo kulcha, chatpata chaap, chhole bhature, main dishes and breads, rolls etc. Basically lots of items from their menu and everything is pure indian taste with right amount for flavors and spices. Highly recommended.
