Coastal Goan Plates at Sula on Davie

North Van's quietly confident Indian room: rogan josh, naan from the tandoor, and an underground parking situation nobody warns you about.

Named for Old Delhi's postal code, this candle-lit Fairview bistro turns chaat and kebabs into a full stylish occasion.

Gary, Anu, and thirty years at the stove make Langley's top-rated Indian worth every minute of the drive.

The Karma Indian Bistro team opened their 20 seat Kitsilano dosa room in August under a new name, and the fermented dosas were worth both the wait and the rebrand.

Crispy, forearm-length dosas and midnight filter coffee until 3am, for the night that isn't over yet.

South Indian dosas with a cocktail list built for spice, low lighting, and 2,300 reviewers who've already figured this out.

The legendary Chennai tiffin institution arrives in North Delta with crispy dosas, a filter coffee ritual, and an unlimited weekend thali that earns the drive.

Butter chicken that earns its fame, a tandoor running hot, and the rare gift of easy parking on date night.

Butter chicken tacos, red-leather booths and craft cocktails, in a South Surrey taproom with half a rickshaw by the door.

A dum biryani lid that opens in a cloud of saffron, a mandi built for two, and the kitchen open until 2am on weekends.

Michelin-listed Main Street kitchen where Peru meets Tokyo and Canton: alpaca tartare, arroz con pato, and a pisco bar that hums until close.

House-ground spices, dum-steamed goat biryani, and a 4.7 rating that makes two thousand Googlers sound completely reasonable.

French technique and Gastown cobblestones, with an atrium, award-winning cocktails, and a bar that doesn't rush you out.

Named after an epic, delivering on it: North Delta's 4.6-rated Hyderabadi dum biryani, sealed under dough and saffron-stained.
