    I had the pleasure of dining at The Cottage Cheese, and I must say, their food were absolutely phenomenal! The paneer was incredibly fresh, soft, and perfectly cooked. Each dish, whether it was the Makai Posto or the crispy Okra , was bursting with authentic Indian flavors. The spices were well-balanced, and the creamy textures in main courses were heavenly. It’s evident that they use high-quality ingredients and take great care in their preparation. And our dinning experience elevated by their great service. Our both servers young lady and gentleman made us very comfortable. Highly Recommended!!

    Superb service, dishes were super flavourful, like most Indian restaurants, the protein quantity is light, but the sauces are the star - make sure to get lots of naan to soak up the goodness. Lovely cozy room in Kensington.

    This is my 6th time here Olin the last year and it never disappoints. I was here several weeks ago and much to my delight they have just changed the menu - they do this every 4 months or so. Everything is good but the Biryani is not to be missed

    Our drinks took a while and came to the table in 3 trip each one with a 2-3 minute wait between. Our meal felt very rushed, the plates for the mains were being set while we were eating our appetizers, a little patience from the server while we were enjoying our food would have been appreciated.

    The food was delicious, the cocktails were fun, colorful, and perfectly crafted, and the ambiance was warm and inviting. The atmosphere strikes the perfect balance—romantic for a date night yet lively enough for a fun girls’ night out. The menu offers a great variety, with enough options to accommodate dietary restrictions, making it a welcoming spot for everyone. The service was nothing short of stellar—attentive and friendly without being overbearing. Highly recommend this spot for any occasion!

    Quite enjoyed my visit. The ambiance was cozy, the food was jaw droppingly delicious as well as uniquely presented and the waiters were rather attentive to patrons needs all through the night. Would definitely come again
