In Search of Culinary Nirvana: A Pilgrimage to Everest Grill Brantford
The philosophical journey of gastronomy often beckons one to look beyond the plating, beyond the immediate sensory experiences, and deep into the intricate relationship between sustenance, culture, and existential realization.

The Divine Dance of Chicken Tikka
The Chicken Tikka stands out not as a dish, but as a profound testament to the perfect balance of life. It embodies the meticulous interplay of spices, tender meat, and the ethereal flame, reminiscent of Heraclitus's notion that everything is in flux. Each bite, imbued with a perfect smoky char and explosive flavor, speaks to the transient yet impactful nature of existence.

Read more(Dining & review was made during the Covid time so there were added sanitary precautions and social distancing measures in place.)
It was my first time in Brantford and also my first opportunity to try any local food place. I was with Indian friends so we picked this location to have our dinner.
The interior of Everest Grill is very homey. It was roomy with ample seating, made the more so because during the time we were inside there were just one or two other groups of people dining at the same time as we were. I was not able to confirm how they would regulate customer density because it was a slow Saturday evening and there are still a lot of seats available.
Food was not among the best I've had, and it is not bad either. It would probably range between average to excellent. Prior to ordering we were asked how spicy we would want the food to be: mild, medium, spicy. My group decided on going with mild, with some consideration that I was also dining with them. (I can have spicy food, but my body has an uncontrollable reaction to sweating profusely when eating spicy food. Haha.) The choice of "mild" turned out to be too mild even for me. Medium would have been a better option that is still acceptable for less spicy tolerant people like I am.
The last point I would want to touch upon is the good service we received. The waitress were very patient serving us and afforded us the comfortable amount of time to decide on our orders. Serving of water and of the food were timely. They cleared our plates at around an acceptable timing. A staff person also came to greet us and asked how our meal and dining experience was.
It had been a fine evening dining with friends here at The...
Read moreWe went in to try this restaurant as it is highly rated, service was okay, but ambiance and quality was compromised a lot in terms of taste and hygiene.
Felt like family owned restaurant, service was really great and prices were normal but quantity/quality was way to low!
We tried their house draught which was served warm so start wasn’t the best. In appetizers we tried chat which was really delicious. Samosa was missing the taste but we can understand what you get for a dollar.
Main dishes we tried were chicken karahi, Dal Makhni, Paneer korma and chilly paneer.
Honestly all the dishes were missing the essence of Indian cuisine!
To start with chicken karahi it was full of onion gravy with 4-5 chucks of boiled chicken not to mention these main course are good for only one person.
Paneer Korma was one of the best among everything.
Dal makhani was just a dal, basic yellow dal with cream.
Chilli Paneer was okay as compare to other food as it was close to indo Chinese.
To talk about naan, Garlic naan was the best.
Ordered Onion kulcha but still got potatoes stuffed kulcha after mentioning more then twice no potatoes but the taste was again the best.
Overall in general we order one starter, one main course and 2/3 bread between us (couple). Over here price we’re almost same as other Indian restaurants but with quantity we needed to order extra main dish and bread that’s the difference to compare.
I would recommend this restaurant but if you are concerned about hygiene and...
