Chef placing marinated chicken into a glowing tandoor oven

The tandoor

A real clay oven, in a Richmond kitchen.

Naan blistered against the wall. Chicken marinated overnight in yogurt and spice, then skewered and lowered into the fire. The Indian side of our kitchen isn't a menu we bought — it's a tandoor we run, staffed by chefs who cook this food for a living.

These are part of our main menu — the same booklet as the wings and burgers.

In their words

What guests say.

  • The butter chicken poutine is the reason we drive out from Barrhaven. Two kitchens, and both of them know what they are doing.

    Priya S.

  • Wings on Thursday, tandoori on Saturday. Staff remember your order and the parking is never a fight.

    Dave M.

  • Booked the back for a team of fourteen. Food came out together, hot, and the bill was straightforward.

Gift cards

Two kitchens, one card.

Good for wings and a pint, or a full tandoori spread — the card works across the whole menu. An easy answer for birthdays, thank-yous and the person who says they don’t need anything.

Pick one up in person at the bar any time we’re open — 6179 Perth Street, Unit 150, Richmond. Or send us a note below and we’ll sort out the amount and pick-up with you.
