Fantastic. Probably the best onion bhaji I've had, and the chicken curry thali was delicious. Extremely generous portions for the price. Definitely check this place out.

Best butter chicken in Canada hands down. You would think butter chicken this good would be from Brampton or Burnaby but nope, Verdun wins. I would not have expected it. 10/10. Everything else (that we've tried) is great too. Highly recommend the Chana Bhature, it will never disappoint. The thalis are a crazy good deal. So much good food for such a reasonable price.

Affordable very tasty Indian food. Best Indian food in the area, they also let you adjust spice levels. Lunch thali is a great dish to try their curries and tandoori chicken.

We had an absolutely wonderful dining experience at Ajit Palace! I took my brother-in-law and a group of guests , and everyone was blown away. It is a beautiful family-run business—the owner, his son, and his daughter were all working hard, taking orders, and serving customers with genuine smiles. The family atmosphere made the restaurant feel incredibly welcoming and pleasant. Most importantly, the food was spectacular. We started with fantastic appetizers, and the main course was next-level. Their butter chicken is incredibly rich and flavorful, especially when paired with their fresh, hot naan. Every single one of my invitees thoroughly enjoyed their meal and said the food here is much better than other places they’ve eaten. We will definitely be back! From Anu

Highly recommend their Shahi Paneer! Creamy, not too spicy and with a touch of sweetness. Excellent with rice and butter naan bread! I will make sure to come back for more :)

Everything was phenomenal. We had the samosa chaat, garlic and regular naan, salad and the chicken Karachi and lamb curry. Lamb was melt in your mouth, all the flavors of all the food were just top notch. Definitely worth the drive.
