Reviews
Restaurantica reviewers give Garam Masala a four-star average:
- I went at [sic] Garam Masala because of my friend's recommendation. Their chi tikka was amazing and so as [sic] the naan bread. I've never had such an authentic Indian food anywhere. Service was good, very comfortable place...I'll go again. – Annie
- Have tried their takeout. This is the best tandoori chicken we've eaten in Canada in several years. – D’Cruz
