Indian Village Eatery — Restaurant in Vancouver

Went here twice, both times with less than ideal experiences.

The place is very small and dirty, lots of cobwebs on the ceiling, stains on the chairs. No bathroom that I could see.

The customer service we got from the woman working in the kitchen was cold: no smile, no interest in making us feel welcome. We actually felt like we were bothering her by ordering food and felt bad about it. Maybe she was having a bad day...?

Maybe I'm a little demanding, but having worked in the food industry myself, I didn't really like the fact that she answered the telephone and was chatting on it while making our food. Phones are not very clean things, it's best to wash your hands after handling one before getting back to food.

I had two samosas which were pretty good though, might come back for some sometimes.

The jumbo butter chicken wrap, wasn't really a wrap per say, it was more like a massive naan "taco" with the chicken mixed with tons of rice. (unlike the picture they had at the cash). My husband said it didn't taste fresh, but it was pretty good regardless. Fork and knife recommended.

It's too bad because we would have loved to have a great Indian restaurant that is a walking distance from our place.

TLDR: Awful customer service, food OK but nothing...

Small shop with just one woman running the business - no other help. The aroma was delicious when I walked in. However after 45 mins from when we placed the order the cook hadn't even started our dishes. The one woman who was running everything from cooking to taking orders just can't do it all on her own. I also saw that she doesn't cook in batches she cooks one order at a time. This could explain why there was a backlog of people who had to wait over an hour for their takeout.

We gave up at 45 mins because we had to get to a show. I imagine the food would have been great so I advise you order takeout, show up so she'll start making your food, then take a walk and come back an hour later.

We did manage to get our samosas....
