    Place is good with good ambiance but one of the worst food I had. We ordered four curries and almost all 4 are not good. Especially the butter chicken, too sweet. I mean they added sugar to the butter chicken. The sweetness of butter chicken comes from onions and cashews not by adding sugar. All reviews talks about butter chicken but I feel those reviews are by people who never had authentic butter chicken. It’s the same story with cottage cheese makhni. These two dishes should be in the desserts section of the menu. 4 stars fir the place and service -ve 5 stars for the food

    We stopped in because my friend is a vegetarian and liked Indian food. Not the type of food I usually eat since my last Indian food experience was way too spicy. To my surprise the food was very tasty, and not very spicy. Funny that the music playing in this upscale restaurant was some hardcore rap, maybe time to tone that down a bit LOL

    I came across a deal that I couldn't resist so my sidekick, Raj, and I went out looking for Kamasutra. It's an Indian restaurant on Bayview, south of Eglinton, with a Green P lot conveniently located across the street. Once inside, we were greeted by a very cheery young lady, Danielle. The decor was very nice and upscale. We asked about the special that I had come across but the manager said it was only available Monday through Thursday, even though it wasn't dated. Anyway, we managed to get past that and the manager ended up taking care of us through most of our visit. We ordered from a four course menu that had lots of choices. We started with the Onion Bhaji and Tandoori Lamb Tikka. Both dishes were delicious, packed with flavour. The onion bhaji was crispy and was served with a tamarind sauce and pickled onions. The lamb was served off the skewer with a mint sauce, some veggies, and more of those yummy pickled onions. Wow, a great way to start our meal! The remaining dishes arrived all at once, each in its own bowl, making it very easy to share. It all looked delicious but the camera had to eat first. See photos. The Lamb Vindaloo is a curry stew with potatoes and spices. It was very good but Raj thought it tasted a little gamey. I loved it. The Kamasutra Butter Chicken had a lot of rich tomato sauce, maybe a tad more tomato than I'm used to in butter chicken but it did taste very good. The chicken was moist and had a good depth of flavour. This may be one of the top three butter chicken dishes I've enjoyed. Palak Paneer (spinach and cheese) may not be a very attractive dish but this version tasted very good. Again, maybe another top three. We tried the Malai Kofta, a dish I've never seen before. It's a cottage cheese ball in a creamy cashew nut sauce. Interesting, in a very good way. I would order this again. Rounding out our meal was a Chicken Biryani, Pulao Rice, regular naan, and garlic naan. The pulao rice had a little saffron, peas, and cumin. The naan was hot and crispy and the garlic naan was delicious. I love garlic. The chicken biryani was colourful and had a generous amount of moist chicken. This might be the best one I've had. We also tried Cheetah Indian beer. It's a lager that we both found was a little sweeter than the Kingfisher we tried recently. It was good. Overall, I have to say this is the best Indian restaurant I've been to. The food was excellent. The service turned out to be be really good, especially from Danielle, who checked in with us frequently. Now that I've discovered Kamasutra, I can't wait to come again. ;)

    We went here for New Year's Eve and the restaurant itself is tastefully decorated. The food however, was just okay. Nothing to call home about and have definitely had better butter chicken at other Indian restaurants. Also quite pricey ($70/pp) for not even including any drinks but a coffee or tea at the end with dessert. The entertainment was also just okay, with the most interesting part being the sitar guitarist playing an amazing solo. Interesting experience but don't think we'd do it again.

    It hurts me to post this review as the food is excellent and for dine-in the service is good. That being said, their take out service (over their own website) it is in a downfall trend. I had consecutive orders that were incorrect. Missing rice, missing naan, wrong main dish, etc. They were fixing the problem every time, but had to wait another X minutes (up to 45 min) to get the right item. I kept returning as I love the food, but I was checking the order in the restaurant before leaving... Yesterday, after placing an order online and them going to the restaurant 50 minutes later I got yet another surprise. My order was not even sent to the kitchen and my visit triggered them to look into that... They were expecting me to now wait another 50 minutes? I guess I should have read the signs earlier... I am done with this restaurant, despite their good dishes. I just cannot longer tolerate the service they provide.

    This was our first ever restaurant in Canada and I must say it was amazing. Ambience is good. Service is also good. Food taste was great. We went during winterlecious season. And we had great experience. Must try dishes - Mushroom Tilki, Palak, Corn and Mushroom curry.! Thank you.!

    I had an exquisite dining experience at Kamasutra Indian Restaurant. The Vegetable Pakora and Veg Samosa were delightful starters that set the tone for the rest of the meal. The flavors of the Dal Makhni were rich and comforting, while the Aloo Gobi showcased the perfect balance of spices. The Garlic Naan was a delightful accompaniment, adding an aromatic twist to the meal. Every dish was executed with finesse, leaving me thoroughly satisfied. I'll definitely be returning for more of their delicious offerings.

    I really like this place . We had a delicious dinner here. The garlic Naan was great, butter chicken good too. Tikka Masada was also good and the daal was creme and extremely tasty. I would come back here again for sure

    Sadly not a great experience. The decor looks smart, but from the washrooms there needs to be some maintenance. The biggest issue was the food, which is likely the reason for a lack of customers at 8pm. We started with the chefs platter, which should have been delicious. The fried brie seemed stale, the chicken was dry and the samosa was very plain. We decided not to opt for mains and found another restaurant, which was cheaper and tastier. It was also a little chilly - as well as the popodoms, which were cold and not freshly cooked. The Margo chutney was straight out the fridge and not good quality.

    Very delicious! Dal makhani was yummy, and a great replacement after my usual Indian place closed during the pandemic. Cannot remember now what other dish I ordered but it was also good. Haven't been to the actual restaurant in person for years, but I remember liking the atmosphere.

    I was taken here for my birthday dinner and it was fabulous! The servers were attentive and very friendly, the tables and space were decorated beautifully, their vegetarian curries and biriyani were very well prepared. I'll be sure to visit again.

    We went for Valentine's Day today and we loved the food. The ambience was so romantic. Surprisingly the food was kind blowing. We had a 4 course pre fix valentine's dinner menu and each dish was delicious.

    I am utterly disappointed! I visited for the first time during Winterlicious and the food and service was phenomenal. I ordered takeout the very next day and the butter chicken cubes were so hard and the Naan weren't cooked all the way through. I will probably go again but only for sitdown dinner where I can ask for a replacement dish if there's a problem.

    Culinary masters. After my third visit (dine in, delivery, and pick up), I've tried enough of their dishes to say they consistently deliver the most delicious Indian cuisine I've had just about ever. The spicy dishes like lamb vindaloo have real kick. Their mild dishes like palak paneer are full of subtle complexity. The bhaji are delicious, the brie pakoras were a surprising delight. Nothing was under or overcooked, servings were plentiful, quality ingredients were top notch.

    My name is JJ Czinner. Kamasutra is excellent. The food is great and the service is perfect. We order vegan: Naan, eggplant, okra, cauliflower and chickpeas, with lots rice.

    Wow! Didn't realize I never rated this restaurant. This has been my fave for years. Every single meal I have ever had from them has been DELISH! The Goan, korma, saag, etc, etc, etc. All YUMMY! Oh, as for butter chicken, theirs and Foodieez are the only butter chicken I recommend so far. You can't go wrong with any meal from Kamasutra.

    Great service Food was also great I just found some of the food was a bit cold; my husband had chicken and he said it was a bit hard to chew. Would still recommend.

  • 5/5 Sara H. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent food. Great waiting staff. Felt very comfortable in the dining room, definitely would go back again. Best Indian food I have ever had.

  • 5/5 SJ V. 1 year ago on Google
    We had a great dinner out. The dinner for two was very well prepared. The table was set for fine dining, we enjoy our hors d’oeuvres and followed by our main course with choices of two meat based and a vegetarian entrees. We selected butter chicken, chicken marsala, palak paneer and raita, saffron rice, etc.. the meal was well prepared, top notch customer service. Ideal for treating that special someone, or business dinner. The main dining area is very clean and well maintained. There was a large family group but wasn’t disturbing to our outing. Definitely going back in the future.

    Have been to so many restaurants and never had an experience like this one. The cook cooked such delicious food. There were all the green flags of a restaurant like warm plates, speck-free tablecloth and dishes, perfect quantity of food and waiter was extremely kind and professional. Such good fine dining experience. Thank you for your amazing service. 100% recommended.

    My first time at the restaurant was in 2010 for my girlfriend’s (now fiancée) birthday. The food was amazing then, and still amazing now (i.e., yesterday). My fiancée and I usually visit this restaurant once a year together to celebrate special occasions, whether it’s one of our birthdays, a job promotion, finishing school, etc. Last month, for the first time, we brought some friends out for one of their birthdays. We had some picky eaters in the bunch who never really had any Indian food outside of butter chicken or samosas. I ordered some shareables for the table and they loved them. My friends said they would definitely come back. Whenever we go the Kamasutra, we get the Lover’s Thali Dinner for 2 (apps, 3 mains, naan bread, rice). That way if you’re not sure what to order, you can try a few things. My trip to the restaurant yesterday was for my birthday dinner. The place was quiet and we had a nice window seat. The food and service was excellent as usual. Shoutout the Jasmeet for the great service! He was attentive, and informative when we asked some questions about a couple questions about new items on the menu that hadn’t seen before (which ended up being delicious by the way). He also did a great job balancing the going back and forth between the takeout, Uber/Skip/etc orders and us. Long story short, if you’re looking for a great place to have some Indian food, I recommend giving this place a shot.

    Delicious onion bhaji, butter chicken, palek paneer, naan and rice. Each dish spiced perfectly for our taste. Service was great.

  • 5/5 Boga F. 2 years ago on Google
    What a good experience!!! We ate butter chicken, chicken tikka masala and another dishes, they were delicious, plenty of flavour. It was an great food and a good size. Service was great too. It is a place you need to go and we need to go back.

    I was a little skeptical about this place at first. They have good selection on their menu and I definitely suggest go with their lunch specials. It might seem a little expensive but you will have a choice of 3 course meal. We were three of us n ordered 3 different dishes and they r all well done. Definitely a should try place.

  • 5/5 Vivek P. 2 years ago on Google
    Awesome ambiance, delicious food and huge variety of drinks to choose from. Keep doing the great work!

  • 4/5 Ryan R. 2 years ago on Google
    Really solid meal. The Thali for 2 was HUGE. Great variety and large menu.

  • 5/5 Emm 6. 2 years ago on Google
    Had my first meal here when I moved to Canada 3.5 years ago and I've always enjoyed it when I can since. The food never disappoints! I'll be ordering again ASAP.

  • 4/5 Manoj A. 2 years ago on Google
    A nice and a pleasant place to have lunch or dinner. If you want experience Indian cuisine in Toronto, ON I would suggest this place. Fairly priced and good service. Due to covid restrictions only patio services are open as of July 2021. Hopefully situation gets better in the coming days. Service - Good Location - Good Quality - Good Taste - Good. Wat more you would expect than this 😊 I recommend to visit once.

    I have been coming to Kamasutra since it first opened in Leaside and recently went again for dinner to dine in. The food is always exceptional and a great value for the price. I recommend the daal makhani or lamb vindaloo if you like spice. The staff is courteous and even provided a dessert on the house at the end of the meal. By far one of the best Indian restaurants in Toronto.
