I visited Burlington for the first time last Sunday and after a good walk along the waterfront I worked quite appetite. I was in the mood for an Indian food and noticed this restaurant while I went on Brant Street. When I entered, I was greeted by the hostess and served by Prince. Not fully familiar with Indian cuisine I sought his suggestions and ordered some butter chicken, basmati rice and naan. Service was fast and well presented and I was pleased that the portion size was for me. The food was delicious, fresh and savory. I quickly found my self satisfied and asked the waiter to pack the remaining food in containers. He did the gracious and I had a delicious lunch the next day. I enjoyed the ambience and everything was very clean, I want to visit again.

On the first day of the restaurant of reopening (Feb 1st) a date dinner had a great time! Admittedly, we were the only 2 there, service was fast, wait staff not linger and checked in everyone so on, the food was great, the... dining room was clean and I would definitely recommend it.

Lunch with a friend in this beautiful restaurant. I have never eaten in an Indian cuisine restaurant and that was an amazing surprise! So much food with so much taste! Just fed for a medium heat! I suggest sharing different meals with friends... so you can try more! Will definitely go back!

As things open up, and after reading a bad review, I had to go back to Amaya to taste for myself. I had only been once before, and loved it, years ago. I chatted with Leena, our hostess and server, and the restaurant had changed...hands in 2019. The food may not be the same as previously, but my friend and I enjoyed our lunch and thanks to large portion size, our suppers) very much. I had the chicken biryani with plain naan, and my friend had the vegetarian biryani with the garlic naan, which looked amazing. Sadly, I’m off butter : I love that raita was included in this order. I would caution, that, if you can’t do spicy, go for mild. I was back and forth, and Leena suggested medium, which was fine, thanks to the naan and raita, but was a little too spicy for my tender buds. At home, hubby loved it! We will return, hopefully with more friends so we can order a variety of dishes.
