Vaikha Indian Restaurant

I only have a photo of when I took take out. I have been following this restaurant ever since it’s debut. Before they even had a sign and it was a banner on the window. I order their onion bhaji (which they don’t serve anymore) and was instantly hooked on the place. I’ve been coming here somewhat often ever since. I always loved their food, their hospitality is respectful. Their combo meal is very valuable! The price is around the same as the average combo anywhere else (at least in my experience) and the portion you get for that price is huge! I came here with a friend a few weeks back and they asked for criticism on the food after we finished. My friend said the rice was a little dry, and a few days later I came back as usual and the rice was moist. They care about their food and I hope this place gets more attention soon :D Update 23/11/2024: They had recently come out with a new wrap! There are four different wraps, and I have gone with the chilli chicken. The wraps are big and surprisingly filling for $9.99, this place always has the best deals. I have gotten the chilli chicken, but there are four other flavours. The wrap was delicious! The actually wrap they used was nice and more on the thicker side. It’s a nitpick, but I wished the veggies weren’t all on one side and the meat on the other. The veggies are lettuce, tomato, peppers, white onion and pickles. At least for this flavour, I didn’t like the pickles being added here. I like pickles, but the sweet pickles just adds more unnecessary sweetness to something that’s already savoury sweet, being the sauce and chicken. Other than that, it’s another filling yet cheap meal from this place! Also it comes with this creamy sauce that I think adds a lot to the savoury flavour. Very nice.

Ordered takeout samosas, they were completely cold and went back, we were given the samosas fried again and were dripping with oil. The chutney tasted like it went bad and left us with upset stomachs.

***** For the love of Mandi ***** If you're craving authentic Hyderabadi Mandi, this spot is your go-to. From the moment you walk in, the aromatic spices transport you straight to Hyderabad. The chicken-65 mandi is tender and succulent, packed with flavor that lingers long after the last bite. The ambiance is cozy, making it perfect for a laid-back meal with friends. An absolute must-try for mandi lovers!

If you’re a fan of Hyderabadi cuisine, this restaurant is an absolute must visit. The highlight was the Mandi (my husband loved it and took us back to Hyderabadi days) - it was so tender and rice so aromatic and flavourful. The vegetarian Thali has rice, dal, naan, curry (veg/non-veg) and Gulaab jamun - perfectly balanced plate and comforting. The hot and sour soup - spicy and tasty - and omg the best we had in North America by far. Staff is attentive and welcoming. Place combines awesomeness in both food and service. It’s relatively new place and building up for fine dining experience which I don’t doubt that it’d be amazing. Definitely recommended.

Really good and affordable South Indian spot, the servings were so big. I had no idea what vegetarian Manchurian was before having it but it was delicious. We spent less than $30 for garlic naan and two of the big combo special (the platters) which also included plain naan. The service was also friendly, the server/cashier was very patient and happy to explain their menu. Walked out very satisfied, would definitely come back!

Just had dinner here. I ordered garlic naan and chicken tikka masala. So much flavor & so delicious, stomach and heart was full. Curry and garlic naan was hot and tasty. Different kind of garlic naan here but I loved it. Portion is good (just the right amount) price is reasonable for the meal. I was having something of an unpleasant day. Feeling great now. Thank you ❤️

One of the hidden gem I must say. We tried telangna chicken, veg manchurian, butter chicken and non veg thali n everything tastes amazing. Kids loved the food as well. Spice level was as requested.It is my son’s bday n he wanted to have best butter chicken and veg manchurian n he was super duper happy with the results. At the start he was almost fooled by the atmosphere but later on he was amazed with the food. Pictures were taken once food was almost done, forgot to take initially.
