Palace Of Asia

Decided to go based off friends’ recommendation. We arrived early for dinner and did not have a reservation. Luckily it was right before what looked to be a busy evening (the restaurant filled up with larger groups as we were leaving). We ordered the mirchi pakora ( battered jalapeños filled with cheese). They were good but a lot for two people. Also they do still have the seeds in them, so it does make the jalepenos hotter) Next time we want to try something different. We also chose the bread sampler which had naan, onion kulcha, roti and puri. The onion kulcha was delicious, we may order that and a garlic naan (our typical bread choice). The puri was fun since it arrived at the table fully puffed up. For our entrées we tried two new items we never had before: shahi paneer bhurji (gravy version , a cheese/pea vegetarian option) & hariyali chicken (green chili creamy sauce). both dishes were delicious & we were both happy to have been adventurous with the choices (outside of our typical chicken korma, saagwala chicken). I would recommend. I was happy to see that there were options for folks who may not be keen on Indian food. They do have chicken fingers & fried shrimp.

Definitely my new go to place again. I was searching for Indian restaurant near me while in Hamilton and I’m glad they came up. Used to go to the other location. Food was delicious!!! Definitely coming back!

Looking for fantastic Indian cuisine? Palace of Asia is a must have! We started with the chicken samosas and they were perfectly fried and delicious. Not pictured because we ate them so quickly!! Next, we had the shuhi kulcha with chicken. These were fantastic. Light and full of flavor. We finished the meal with our favorite - chicken tikka masala. This dish is served with rice. I love the seasoning in the creamy tomato sauce - spicy, but not overly hot. I always order a side of naan bread to dip in the sauce. The atmosphere is elegant and the service is great too.

I ordered chicken briyani, garlic naan, and chicken korma. The briyani did not taste like authentic briyani at all…it was bland. The chicken korma had the same issue…it did not taste the way chicken korma is supposed to taste. The naan bread was good but besides that, I wasn’t impressed. Also, considering they charge $19 for one order of “briyani” and another $19 for the “korma”, you’d think they’d give decent portion sizes of food…unfortunately, they did not do that either. The korma came in a relatively small container as did the briyani.

A must visit! I highly recommend this restaurant! We are so happy to have found this place! The food is delicious! I had the Chicken Curry (not too spicy) with a side order of Garlic Naan. My wife ordered Lamb Biryani, and our friend got the Palak Paneer. We all enjoyed our food very much. The manager, Rani, was very welcoming and accommodating and made us feel important. The restaurant is very clean and decorated with simple elegance. Can't wait to eat there again and bring more friends with us!
