Update2: I will not remove my comment because it reflects what truly happened. There was no issue with the payment because we caught the mistake in time and paid the correct amount. We still left a tip because the other male staff member had a very good attitude. However, this does not change the fact that the female staff member initially entered $60 on the machine without showing me the bill for confirmation. If you have doubts, you can check the surveillance footage. She didn’t give me the bill until I asked for it, and only then did we realize that the amount entered on the machine was different from the correct price on the bill. So yes, the receipt shows that we paid the correct amount, but it doesn’t reveal that the first amount she entered was wrong. I have no intention of unfairly smearing your local restaurant—I’m just a tourist sharing my honest experience so others can be cautious.
Update: Here, I’ve attached our dining record and date to confirm that this incident occurred at your restaurant. A female staff member handled the checkout. The bill itself was correct because we noticed the issue in time and paid the correct amount.
You can check the specific timing of the incident. I’m just sharing the problem we encountered to inform others to be cautious. Be careful! The cashier might add extra charges on their own!
We had dinner here on January 6th. A female cashier processed our bill and directly entered $60 into the card machine without giving us a detailed receipt. It was only after I proactively asked for the receipt that I discovered our actual bill was $57! The cashier didn’t even apologize!
Avoid this kind of dishonest restaurant. It was a...

During my visit to Blue Bell Indian Restaurant in Yellowknife over the Christmas holiday, I had an absolutely fantastic dining experience. This restaurant is well-known in the area, and after trying their food, I can definitely see why.
Service & Atmosphere
The customer service was exceptional – the staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive, making the whole dining experience even more enjoyable. The restaurant itself had a warm and inviting ambiance, perfect for a cozy meal during the holiday season.
Food Quality & Flavor
The food quality was outstanding, with each dish bursting with rich, layered flavors. One of the highlights was their Butter Chicken, which was perfectly creamy, flavorful, and well-balanced, making it an excellent choice for anyone who enjoys authentic Indian flavors without overwhelming heat. The texture was smooth, and every bite was packed with deep, aromatic spices.
Pairing the Butter Chicken with naan bread or rice elevated the dish even more, as both options complemented the sauce beautifully.
Another standout dish was their creamy alfredo pasta . The sauce was rich yet light, delivering a delicate creamy aroma without feeling overly heavy. Every bite was smooth and comforting, making it a perfect dish for anyone who enjoys a fusion of flavors.

I had the chili chicken with a side of plain rice and garlic naan, paired with an Alexander Keith’s IPA, and everything was absolutely delicious! The chili chicken was packed with bold flavors and just the right amount of heat, the naan was fresh and soft with a perfect garlic kick, and the rice complemented the meal beautifully.
I dined with a group of about eight colleagues, including both local staff and team members visiting from Ottawa, Edmonton, Winnipeg, and Vancouver. Everyone at our table was impressed with the food, from the rich and flavorful curries to the expertly spiced biryani and the crisp, perfectly seasoned appetizers.
The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring we had a great dining experience. The food was beautifully presented, and you could tell they use fresh, high-quality ingredients in every dish.
