Sitar Indian Restaurant - Vancouver

We were walking in Gastown and stumbled upon this restaurant. What a great stumble. We had chicken curry and chicken korma. Great spices. Service spot on. Great ambiance in a nice old building. This place is a winner for locals and cruisers who are in Vancouver before or after the cruise.

Came upon this restaurant by accident whilst wandering around Gastown, but we did fancy an Indian meal and this fitted the bill! Good service and good basic food, with a nice table by the window so we could continue to "people watch".

I ordered a lamb curry and some naan and loved the food, the location and feel of the restaurant and the service. If you like Indian food, this is the place to eat in Vancouver!

For adults with a knowledge of Indian food, this restaurant is probably fine, but with hungry kids and in search of a place where the lines were not too long, we made a mistake.The lack of customers and busy tables - when many of the other Gastown restaurants had extensive lines told a story that we did not pay attention to.Ultimately, for the parents it was an adequate meal, but the kids did not enjoy it and we left disappointed and felt we had paid a fair amount for a mediocre lunch - lesson learned.My real point about the headline was that the waiter did not really help us in terms of making good choices for 3 kids that liked mellow chicken curry at home, but had never really been to an Indian restaurant.What we got in the end - just did not work out.

What a beautiful place to sit and people watch and eat great food. The butter chicken and chicken korma were amazing. Great service. Would definitely go here again!
