As a group of five, we ordered several different items, both main courses and appetizers. Every dish was delicious. The staff were very kind and friendly although a little on the slow side. We would definitely return.

Outstanding experience! Delicious food, friendly staff, extremely amazing ambiance Update on 03/16/21: I visited this place again last week with my husband to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Staff was so kind to decorate our table with candles and presented a complementary cheesecake to add to our celebration. It was indeed a great experience again. Highly recommended!

This is a beautifully decorated restaurant with a unique and breathtaking ambience. Every single staff person went above and beyond . We ordered something that was not on the menu and the staff made sure that we got that. The “churri” dessert is amazing and it’s the first time I have had it in a restaurant.

The food service is very nice . I ordered crispy cauliflower and it was so delicious with Thai special sauce which made it more tasty and for lunch I ordered shahi paneer and naan and it was also too yummy as I was able to get to taste the authentic Indian species which I was craving for over here in Vancouver . Silk restaurant is really very nice and its staff too

This restaurant is AMAZING. The food, service, and atmosphere were all delightful! The food that we had (naan, butter chicken, spinach paneer, rice, lamb curry, chicken tikka appetizer) were all amazing, we all ate way too much food because it was so good. Surprisingly, there was no other people there, which boggles my mind because it was really perfect. I would say it’s one of the best Indian restaurants I’ve been to (and I’ve been to many.) The decor and lighting emphasized the scenery and lightened and brought out a fun mood, we felt very bougie. The service was quick and the employees were super nice and speedy. When the appetizer came out, it was still sizzling and tasted so good! The food was flavorful and brought a delight to our pallets, I would definitely recommend!

Silk Lounge is a hidden gem in Vancouver from the moment you step inside, you’re transported into a world of opulence, with its stunning Buddha-themed decor and rich, inviting ambiance. Every detail is thoughtfully designed to create a truly luxurious dining experience. The food? Absolutely divine. Each dish bursts with fresh, aromatic herbs and spices, offering a symphony of flavors that elevate traditional Indian cuisine to new heights. Whether you’re indulging in their vegetarian or vegan offerings or savoring a hearty classic, the quality and authenticity shine through. This is a blissful spot that truly caters to the most discerning foodies. And when the clock strikes 10 pm on weekends, Silk Lounge transforms into a Bollywood-style lounge, bringing vibrant energy and an electrifying atmosphere to the night. It’s an incredible spot to enjoy world-class food and then immerse yourself in music and culture. To make their offerings even more enticing, Silk Lounge now provides affordable tiffins for their neighbors—a thoughtful touch that makes gourmet Indian cuisine accessible to more people. If you’re looking for a dining experience that feeds both the soul and the senses, Silk Lounge is the place to be. Highly recommend.

Recently was invited to this restaurant. It was phenomenal. I was impressed by the Butter chicken pasta. The paneer bites were delicious. Crispy and soft in the inside. Had Galub Jamun. It was so very good. I recommended this place to my friends and coworkers who are vegetarian. They have delicious food for everyone.
