Vij's

Food: * * * * *

Busy trendy Indian eatery. No reso's; be prepared to wait for upwards of 2 hours depending on your arrival time and day. Small bar at the back of the restaurant is basically a waiting room for hungry patrons, and servers kindly make the rounds with amusees bouches as a foreshadow of the entrees to come. Seating is crowded since the space isn't big. Vij is often there greeting and mingling with waiting diners, which adds a nice welcome touch. Food is unique, though distinctively Indian in flavour; local ingredients blended with jazzed up versions of traditional curries and spices make the dining experience memorable and distinct. Leave your notions of "Indian food" behind and open yourself up to a taste adventure. :)
