Flavours of India - BC V9R 2X7

We had a fantastic experience, visiting twice during our trip to Nanaimo. The food was excellent, served in generous portions, and the wonderful staff running the restaurant provided outstanding service. Make sure to ask for the best recommendations on local attractions and some excellent book suggestions from the owner, Ashmit. You can see the difference off before and after of their Lunch special Meal. Loved it.

What a friendly welcoming atmosphere. Seating is classic diner but comfortable, clean and perfectly fine. Quite busy for a Tuesday I feel which says a lot about the food. The spinach cheese nan was very good with the lamb bhuna goast which was excellent. If you like fresh flavours and great friendly service. I Highly recommend you give this restaurant a try.

A lovely find. Stopped for lunch on our way to Comox valley, after reading the reviews. We were not disappointed. We had the Chef’s dal, Bombay Fish Curry, tandoori roti, Gobi garlic and chilli fish. Their Bombay fish curry was excellent! Actually everything was bang on and delicious! We asked for extra spicy, the chef did not disappoint! Will definitely stop here on our return journey! Staff were very friendly and welcoming! Service was within minutes.

So good.. I love indian food and i go to London UK often and I havent found many Indian restaurants as good as this- everything was great.. the main dishes, the soya starter, the gobi garlic, the mango lassi, the thin garlic naan. Best rasmalai i have ever had!

I had to stop mid meal to write this review because it is so exquisite, so refined yet filled with comfort it is bringing up memories for me of my father’s cooking. The staff here are the absolute best, whether busy or calm they provide a smile, warmth and love to their work whether it is front of house or the kitchen. Very grateful for this meal and the highest recommendation I can provide. Check it out, and try the vindaloo! Great atmosphere as well.

Naan was completely burnt. I ordered yogurt-marinated tandoori kebabs but received legs and thighs that were simmered in a tomato/oil/herb sauce. The entre was supppsed to come with chutney, salad and butter sauce -- not one of those arrived with the chicken. I only knocked one star off of the food because even though this order had major mistakes, I can tell the food is good quality and authentic. If the food was correct and not burnt I bet it is 5-star quality. I knocked two stars off of service because someone was satisfied sending burnt, hard, naan out the door and zero entre sides/sauces with the meat. This was my first time ordering here. I will definitely give this place another chance.

A very nice restaurant on the island with good service and staff. Ordered channa masala, spinach cheese naan and garlic naan for the brunch. Channa masala was spot on, so were the naan. Ordered chai as well that tasted good too!

Flavours of India in Nanaimo is truly fantastic. Our recent dinner was exceptional in every way, confirming that everything was great. The customer service was warm and attentive, and the dining area felt genuinely comfortable. We absolutely loved the food. The Fish Pakora was perfectly crispy and tender. The main Kadai Paneer, was rich and perfectly spiced in a magnificent gravy. Highly recommended for an authentic and satisfying experience!
