Had dinner at Mishra's with a group of friends. We enjoyed a variety of curries, along with breads and rice. All the meals were delightful and I have no problems recommending Mishra's. We paid $125 for 5 people, which made the night very reasonable. And yes I'll be looking forward to my next visit.

NEW NEWS - Mishra’s has opened a new (and second) restaurant at 23 Vernon St South Kingsville - just tried it out - wonderful vibe in a great location and space. Wow wow wow - such incredible and authentic Indian! We've just moved into the area and have found the most amazing Indian restaurant in Mishra's. Warm welcome from Nisha who explained the menu including the chef's specialty of goat. We ordered the goat curry and a chicken tikka masala with rice and garlic naan. Both dishes were absolutely sensational - authentic, great tasting, perfect amount of heat. Looking forward to going back again and again. BYO wine. And wonderful to see a steady stream of takeaway on a Monday night.

I recently dined at Kitchen Mishra's South Kingsville, and it was a fantastic experience! The menu featured a wide variety of classic Indian dishes — from rich, creamy curries to spicy street food favourites. Every dish was flavourful and cooked to perfection. The naan was fresh and fluffy, perfect for scooping up the sauces. The spice level was just right and customizable. The ambiance was warm and inviting, with traditional Indian music playing softly in the background. The decor featured beautiful Indian art and colourful lighting, adding to the cultural vibe. Service was friendly and attentive, though a bit slow during peak hours. Pricing was fair for the quality and portion sizes. Cleanliness and hygiene were well maintained, which is always a plus. Overall, Kitchen Mishra's South Kingsville is a great place to enjoy authentic Indian cuisine. Whether you're new to Indian food or a long-time fan, you'll find something to love here.

Had dinner with my wife and daughter last week and we loved it! So happy to have a fantastic Indian restaurant in our neighbourhood. Service was very warm and friendly and the curries were delicious. Paneer entree really yummy too. My daughter loved the mango lassi and we really appreciated the kulfi which was brought out on the house. So yummy. We will be back soon!
