Reviews for Essence Of India Restaurant in Garibaldi Highlands, BC

This is the only place to get Indian food in Squamish. It's so delicious and the chefs and staff are so kind. Do it. And then go... back again! Read more

Excellent diversity of dishes, and branches out from 'traditional' Indian cuisine. The variety of naan bread options alone is... worth a visit! Read more

Absolutely loved the food, service and staff. The naan was soft, fresh, crispy and a good size. Paired with chilly goat which... had the perfect taste and hotness combination. Was so happy and satisfied with the food. Read more

We stopped in by chance on our road trip Aug 2022. Amazing food, customer service, and the Chef made his rounds at each table... to see how the food was, this was an absolutely wonderful personable touch. Highly recommended if you are traveling throughSquamish it's a must stop and eat destination! Read more

My boss recommends this place. We come here when we visit Whistler. They used to lunch years ago. They do just dinner maybe they... changed it since Covid. Still love this place. Good taste and volume, friendly service. I had lamb vindaloo. I should askspicier, I said "2", it has a kick but it would be better a little more. Read more

By chance, came across this new little gem. The wonderful aroma of the exotic spices tantalize all your senses from the moment... you walk in, bringing your taste buds alive! The chef/owner greeted and seated us. He was very personable and attentive to ourneeds. It was our 10th wedding anniversary and he treated us to a lovely dessert to complete our meal! My husband had thebutter chicken, rice and we shared the garlic naan and I had the most delicious chicken Tika Masala ever! We ordered mediumheat, which was perfect for us. I cooked my palate with a smooth, creamy and lightly sweet mango Lassi, while hubby enjoyed anIPA. I wish we lived closer as we would definitely be regular customers! We highly recommend this authentic, but originalrestaurant. Essence of India, is the perfect name!! Read more
