BJ’S Indian Kitchen — Restaurant in Qualicum Beach

What a profound disappointment. I spent just under $100 (+$20 tip) for approximately three meals worth of food. I had asked for medium spice, and there is zero spice. Seriously, there is no spice on this food . The Butter Shrimp consisted of a takeout container of liquid, and just six small shrimp. I cannot overstate how small, how tiny these shrimp are. I have attached a picture. This costs $20. The Beef Rogan Josh was oddly sweet....?! I've never had that dish seem candied before. And the naan bread what is going on with that? Again, I have attached a picture. It's flat and dense, and does not seem to be made in house (if it is, I apologize but it sure doesn't seem that way). It's floppy and flat and dense. Not like any naan but I've ever had in my 56 years. I will say this - the Paneer Butter Masala was very tasty. At $18, I did not feel completely ripped off with that one. I don't know, I had really high hopes, and in the end this might be the worst Indian food I've had on the island so far. I see other people have had good experiences, and I'm genuinely...

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Incredible Indian Cuisine – A Must-Try!

What an amazing dining experience! This Indian restaurant truly blew us away. From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed with warm hospitality and delicious aromas that let us know we were in for something special.

The menu is packed with authentic, flavorful dishes, and every bite was bursting with spices and perfectly balanced seasoning. We tried a variety of items—from creamy butter chicken and fragrant biryani to fresh naan and rich curries—and everything was outstanding. You can taste the care and tradition in every dish.

The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, and the service was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. Whether you're a longtime lover of Indian food or trying it for the first time, this place is an absolute gem.

Highly, highly recommend for anyone looking for flavorful food, great service, and an unforgettable experience. We’ll...

A friend told me she likes Indian food and wanted to check out an Indian restaurant in Qualcomm Beach. She has been a Van Isle resident all her life and I just got here in October. I decided to scope it out and I can tell you. Awesome. I understand that reviews are perspective and opinion. The restaurant is a small storefront on a quiet street in a small town on the ocean. It was clean and smelled good inside. It's not loud and and has plenty of seating for a small family or group of friends but is quaint enough for quiet conversation while people watching.

Most importantly they have gluten free and dairy free meals with many selections from across the menu.

The gentlemen that served me was very accomodating and answered all my questions with a smile.

I am not a 'lets go out for dinner' kind of guy but I would go to this place anytime happily.

And no....I was not paid by the owner for...
