"At this refined, yet casual, Indian restaurant, the portions are large, the wine list is top-notch, and the ambience encourages sharing."
{Condé Nast Traveler's list of Toronto's 20 Best Restaurants}

"There’s lots of competition among the top-tier Indian restaurants in Toronto, and Pukka is at the top of that list. Punjabi curries, vindaloos, paneer, and butter chicken—all the comforting hits from the subcontinent can be found here. And while the food is uniformly excellent, it’s the wine list that’s the standout. Created by sommelier Peter Boyd, it’s a mix of thoughtfully considered bottles that pair well with whichever dish you order (ask the staff for recommendations)."

    Very busy night, new lamb shank on menu is delicious. Pakora not as crispy as usual. We were not rushed from table and enjoyed dessert

    Pukka is always great. The food is rich and flavourful but it has a brightness the elevates it beyond your standard Indian fare. The staff is very attentive and helpful. Just a great experience.
