    I had catering done from Pukka last weekend for a work event where I would be having 100+ attendees and I was so nervous because I’ve never arranged for food like that on my own for such a big group but Pukka and specifically Harsh from Pukka took such good care of making sure it was a seamless process for us! THE FOOD WAS AMAZING, I kept hearing compliments on it the following week and most importantly the service I received was impeccable. Harsh gave me great suggestions to make ordering it easy and likeable for the attendees and he was also early to deliver the food considering there was a lot of road closures in the city. I will definitely be keeping them in mind for any future events!!!!!

    Whether we dine in or have delivered, Pukka never disappoints. With gluten free options available the whole family is excited when we have a Pukka night. The restaurant has a lovely ambiance and the staff are fabulous. The owners are amazing. Always happy to say hello or chat or even deliver! The truest dedication to customer service I have ever seen! They are doing everything right. Keep up the amazing job to everyone at Pukka. You’ve got our family for life! Thank you!

    Excellent upscale Indian restaurant with tasty appetizers. A friend and I split the chicken 65, signature chaat, okra fries and stuffed paneer. Star of the show was definitely the paneer. This dish is simply beautiful with the vibrant green inviting you in. The curry is rich, creamy and the mushroom falling from the paneer adds nice texture. Okra fries were crispy and fun to nibble on. Chaat was also another dish with a lot of variety and textures in every bite.

    Follow @bredgyeats on IG for more food posts! I remember watching a show named Pukka when I was younger, but I definitely enjoyed my visit here better. An elegant take on the street food chaat, it delivers a melody of crispy and crunchy textures, with an appetizing acidity and creaminess from the fruits, tamarind chutney and yogurt that makes you hungrier as you eat. Then the hard-working fisherman got a big catch today of a beautifully tender and flaky cod, along with king prawns that are delightfully fresh and sweet, served in a rich coconut broth that's brightened with lemon. Not sure where the name Chicken 65 came from, but I'm glad that's not the price. The roasted pumpkin curry is enhanced with garam masala, each bite dissolving in your mouth and perfuming a delightful natural sweetness in the velvety coconut milk base.

    Pukka was incredibly lively on Saturday night, with vibrant colours, flavours and aromas. Service and atmosphere were fantastic for our table of 5 with every bit of our journey feeling seamless. Despite avoiding TO ‘licious for many years, I was highly recommended by friends to make a trip to Pukka during this Winterlicious. I’d say they were right. The Gobi 65 and Chicken Tikka were great, though I’d say I prefer the Gobi. Lamb was a popular dish across the restaurant and we had to partake. The optional Naans were a great addition to the meal and recommended! For dessert, I heard great things about the rice pudding but personally opted for the Chai panna cotta, which was a smooth and light ending to our lamb entree. Would recommend!

    If you want to experience real amazing canadian service in an India restaurant, then this is one of the unique restaurants I have found. Their chaat was tasty and seemed healthy. Less oily food, great ambience if you sit near window. Overall was a good change from so called authentic Indian restaurants. It's bit on the expensive side though.

    We had an amazing evening at Pukka. The food and service is always amazing here. A cozy place, we started the evening with refreshing Indian inspired cocktails like Lady Grey or Bombay Sour. The food is delicious, elevated Indian dishes full of flavour. On the menu are a variety of seafood, chicken, lamb and short rib in aromatic classic Indian Curries and Masala. Presentation here is always on potent! There is a variety of amazing vegetarian dishes that you should try as well. The dishes are generous and moderately priced. If you need help, the servers are there to guide you in the right direction for a great experience One of the best places in the city for Indian cuisine! If you haven’t been here, you should definitely put this place on the top of your list.

    This is by far the best Indian restaurant i have ever been to. The food is a high end take on classic indian food. The atmosphere is warm and whimsical. The service is exceptional they always made sure we had water, that our food was to our liking and if we were missing anything at all. The pukka chaat salad is simply the best salad we ever had.The owner is very attentive and friendly. We will definitely come back when visiting Toronto. ** please note the pictures do not do the food justice, we were in a hurry to eat the delicious food :)
