    Very disappointed with the restaurant as they did not bother to post correct details on Google maps and did not feel apologetic for miscommunication. The worst part is that they mentioned that restaurant is opened till 9 pm on Google map but they close the kitchen at 8 pm. We took the detour to try out this place but when we reached there we found small notice on the door: Monday - Off Friday and Saturday - Dine in Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday- Take away Further, the staff told us that they got big orders so they will not serve any other orders. Very disappointed as we wasted 30 mins to reach other. We suggested them to atleast update their website but does not seem important to them.

    As a person who can be difficult to feed (GF and Plant Based) I find my options here are amazing. Staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. The food is spectacular and it's very well priced!

    I wanted give 0 star but there is no option honestly the worst place i have ever visited in canada. Owner seems to hold personal grudges against Indian ethnicity. Started swearing instead of resolving issues, would urge people to stay away from this place . I would rather starve myself to death that eating over here. I wish i had took a picture to share for everyone so could have shown the whole order as it is . On the first bite we knew it wasn’t right. Maybe you should work for me i will teach you a thing or two about food and customer service

    I don't understand how the container and taste both change in two different orders. The first time I ordered biryani it was excellent and was given in plastic tall container. And today's order was extremely unwhelming. It was super moist and absolutely didn't taste the same. The chicken Tikka quantity was a joke! Bought food for 70$ with high hopes. Not happy

    Grabbed butter chicken for take out. Lady who cashed me out was polite and friendly. Food was fantastic - really appreciate the fact their entrees come with rice. Will be certainly coming here again when in the area

    We visited this place on Canada day long weekend with friends. We had small kids in the group so we asked our server to just give daal (less spicy), plain rice and raita for kids. To my surprise, the daal was spicy even for us. Raita had all the spices too. Our kids dinner that night was just plain dry rice. Chef please note all Indians "DO NOT" like spicy food so please be considerate. I would have appreciated if they listened to our request carefully. We also ordered paneer which was good but again quiet spicy, even though we asked for medium spicy. Chicken Biryani had no flavors. Gulab Jamuns were good but Ras Malai smelled really bad. Talking about the ambience, it was not great at all.Quiet dark inside and carpet look like they haven't been washed in ages.

    Ordered Tandoori chicken, It was definitely Cooked earlier given how dry it was. It as served in just 20 mins, which impossible to cook Tandoori chicken that dry. My suggestion- I wouldn't have minded waiting 30 mins for freshly cooked chicken. Price is really good, given the portion. Probably change it to 18$ to make it fresh.

    My recent experience at this restaurant was far from enjoyable. The dishes were excessively spicy, overloaded with intense spices and masalas that bordered on overwhelming. To make matters worse, there was a significant miscommunication regarding the inclusion of rice with the main course. The order taker failed to inform us about this, resulting in an unnecessary overordering of naan. The excessive spice levels and lack of clarity regarding the menu left me with a less than positive impression. If you're not a fan of extremely spicy food, I'd recommend approaching this restaurant with caution.

    We used to love Royal Haveli- but since the last experience, we won’t return. The food was horrible, and when I called and messaged to talk about the issues we had, the response was upsetting and incredibly unprofessional.We will no longer visit or recommend here. Save your money and order elsewhere.

    I visited this place with the reviews ,but as we don't have many restaurants nearby this is the placed , we visited and was very horrible experience with family, Waited for 15 minutes to dive take out and they told us to wait for 25 minutes to wait for the take out and after that time , told us to wait again for 40 minutes and girl who takes order has no knowledge of the food and after waiting for so long, expected food to be good. BUT NO taste at all.Better to improve the services in order taking and be fast.

    We haven't been back to Royal Haveli for a few months. Place hasn't changed Still quite nice Indian style decor. The waitress we had was just training last time we were here. She was doing much better this time, on her own and quite busy. Still not good at suggesting wine as she is a non drinker but that's OK. We know our way around the wine list which has several local wines. Now to the food! I had the Chicken Biryani. Ordered it Canadian hot, not Indian hot. It was hot, but not too much and easy to eat. Warms you right up.

    The curry dishes were delicious and came with a generous helping of basmati rice. The meat in the dish was tender and juicy. I got the butter naan which was moist. Bf got the regular naan however which he didn't like as it was crispy instead of soft.

    The food is some of the best Indian food I have had in Belleville and it's up there with a lot of the other Indian restaurants I have been too. It is clearly made with care and passion. The dishes are flavourful and I love the smell of it when taking the food home. That's why the atmosphere is rated lower btw, I've never had a chance to dine in. It looks good from what I can tell. Service is good, the staff are polite and engage in small talk that neither feels forced or irrelevant. Definitely worth your time if you want a nice vindaloo

    Called today to pick up butter chicken, spinach paneer and veggie pakora. They didn't pick up (were on the other line) but called me back immediately. They have a takeout special on right now and the food was amazing. They gave us a timeline of when to show up at the restaurant to pickup and were super accommodating. Can't wait to eat there again!

    The server was really nice, probably new but really trying their best. They have an impressive wine and Indian beer menu, unfortunately they don't have it actually available. They did have a red and a white we purchase often but unfortunately the red had been open for a while (was off) and the German style white was bitter (open, bad bottle .. German wines are sweet!). That shouldn't have been an issue except they only had those two bottles. I think I'll stick to take out.

    Came unknowingly10 minutes to close to their popup location and ordered Chicken Biryani. Amazing taste, perfect spice level, friendly staff, and all round great experience! Will definitely be back and recommending this place 😃

    If you can't eat spicy, they don't have options. Several things in the menu not available in prime time. Google map showing it halal restaurant, but it's not. Owners better to consider these things not only serving to Indians, also should available for others if they want to taste their cuisines.

    Delicious Indian food, excellent ambience, very clean, and courteous service.

  • 1/5 Justin H. 1 year ago on Google
    We were seated at a table. And no one came to take out order. No one. Didn't even get water. Two other people were seated nearby us. Moments later they were served appetizers. After 35 minutes of zero interaction, we walked out. So yeah, not great.

  • 5/5 Doug C. 4 months ago on Google
    Thoroughly enjoyable dinner with friends. The Indian food here is consistently fantastic. We enjoyed the chicken curry, spinach potato, chicken and beef Kormas. But, the fresh garlic naan was the star of the dinner for me. So nice to have a great Indian restaurant like this in Belleville.
