Best Indian Restaurant in Downtown Toronto
Authentic North Indian Cuisine & Bar on York Street
Welcome to Dil Tak Indian Cuisine and Bar, downtown Toronto’s home for authentic North Indian food. We are at 8 York St, steps from Union Station, Scotiabank Arena and the Financial District, serving slow-simmered curries, tandoori grills, biryani, momos and naan straight from the tandoor. Dine in at our restaurant and bar, pick up takeout on the way home, order Indian delivery across downtown Toronto, or let us cater your next office lunch or celebration.
Authentic North Indian Food in the Heart of Toronto
Dil Tak Indian Cuisine and Bar was built for downtown Toronto: a warm dining room, a full bar and a kitchen that cooks North Indian classics the traditional way. Our chefs toast whole spices, marinate overnight and finish breads in a live tandoor, so every plate — from Butter Chicken and Chicken Tikka Masala to Lamb Shank Rogan Josh and Paneer Lababdar — tastes the way it should. See how we cook or read our story.
You will find our Indian restaurant on York Street, a short walk from Union Station, Scotiabank Arena, Rogers Centre, the CN Tower and Meridian Hall, and minutes from Harbourfront, St. Lawrence Market and the Financial District. That makes us an easy choice for a pre-game dinner, after-work drinks with chaat and momos, a family dinner downtown, or a late Indian meal on a Friday night when our kitchen serves until 12:30 AM.
