Guru - Edmonton

The food at Guru Kitchen was absolutely delicious. I began my meal with the Coconut Shrimp, which was recommended by our server and was the perfect starter – aromatic, crunchy on the outside, and not too spicy. The freshly baked Naan bread was soft, buttery, and perfectly seasoned with herbs that really made each bite flavorful. The lamb was incredibly tender and practically melted in my mouth, I didn't even need a knife to cut it. I enjoyed my meal with an Old Fashioned cocktail. I highly recommend this restaurant if you ever find yourself in Edmonton, AB.

I liked the quality of food- the curries had very big chunks of meat and cheese. But you can cut that up right? We chose three dishes- lamb biriani, butter chicken, and a spinach and cheese dish. I liked the butter chicken- not too sweet, like so many restaurants make it. I thought the spinach and cheese was pretty strong on the tomato, but that's just a preference. The chicken and the lamb were tender and juicy. We ordered saffron basmati rice and gluten-free naan. The basmati rice was a hit. I was disappointed in the naan-it seemed to be fried in oil that was a bit rancid- and the texture was not like a regular naan. My date ordered it without me noticing, but in retrospect (being only gluten-intolerant , real naan is something I'm willing to suffer for- (Unless the substitute is very tasty. I noticed several empty tables for two, but my date and I were seated at a table more suited to 4 people, a bit in the open and I felt a bit exposed. I would have liked something a bit more intimate. Also the dishes were quite large. With three dishes, we had enough food for 4 people. In some Indian restaurants the dishes are half that size. This restaurant was billed as a romantic date restaurant, where a couple could have a quiet conversation. I found it more suitable for a group dinner. I thought the food was on the pricy side, but because of the size of dishes, it was reasonable value.

I recently visited this restaurant for the first time and was completely impressed! The food was absolutely delicious! The restaurant has a classy and elegant atmosphere, perfect for a romantic date night or a nice dinner with friends or coworkers. The service was outstanding, and my partner and I had a great conversation with both the bartender and manager while sitting at the bar. They were very kind and genuine. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and will definitely be back again.

The food I hear is good , the ambience is very nice as for service it lacks especially when waiting at front to pick up delivery orders

The perfect combination of butter chicken and lamb vindaloo make this the best Indian restaurant in Edmonton.
