Review from Tara C.
New Westminster, BC
After having a "meh" experience down the street we gave Indian Star a chance on Friday. Super glad we did.
1. Korma with a korma sauce. What a novel idea! Someone should send an order over to Royal Tandoori so that they can see what Korma sauces is.
2. Tikka Masala - a little different than I'm accustomed to across the river but still very tasty.
3. Dear lord that is some great Naan. Eat it. Eat lots of it.
4. Service was impressive.
Eat here over the other place. That is all. -
Review from Simon H.

Being British I loathe the quality of curry in the Vancouver area.
Don't even get me started on Vij's, horrible food.
This unpretentious place in New West does the most British curry I've yet experienced in my five years over here.
So highly recommended if you like Indian food that isn't watered down to local taste buds. -
Review from Jenni B.
I went here for dinner a few weeks back and can easily say I'm hooked in Indian Star Restaurant.
The restuarant decor isn't hip or trendy, but it's neat and cozy. he service was fantastic, from seating to drink to ordering to left over pack up and billing it was seemless.
I enjoyed a tikka masala and chicken vindaloo. My boyfriend had the rogenjosh lamb, which he reports was very good. I liked that they let you pick the order of spiciness - I love hot hot food while any sort of spice will make my boyfriend break out in a sweat, it was nice to order my favorite Indian dishes without worrying he wouldn't be able to eat them (except he vindaloo which I ordered hot, and I loved that they took that seriously and not just "white person hot"). Major fan of their pappadums as well.
Only thing holding me back from a five star is there was a lot of oil in the food, which caused a bit of stomach upset as my boyfriend and I don't usually have high fat meals, but if that's your thing no bother.
Definately one of the best Indians I've had North of the Fraser. -
Review from Jenny S.
Vancouver, BC
I've been here about 3 times and each time had really enjoyed their food. My favourite dish that they have are their samosas. I think the reason why they are so good is because the pastry is thinner than the typical samosa and they are deep fried! That being said, they are a bit greasier than regular samosas, but if you just blot them a bit with paper towel they are to die for! They come with 2 dipping sauces, the names of which I am not aware of. (Sorry)
The naan is always fresh and delicious.
Worth checking out if you're in New Westminster and looking for good food. -
Review from Christine R.
New Westminster, BC
Just when I was despairing that there was no place from which to order in nearby that wasn't pizza (or Greek), I discovered Indian Star. Well, I sort of already knew about the place, as it's fairly well-established in New West, but imagine my joy of discovering they deliver, too.
The delivery was fast - within about half an hour I was devouring lamb curry, chicken biryani, and hot, freshly made garlic naan, all lovely and charred from the tandoor. I've eaten my fair share of Indian food in my time, and even worked in an Indian restaurant for a spell, way back when, and this stuff was up there. The lamb makhni in particular was delicious, with tender bits of lamb swimming in a spicy tomato cream sea. At a medium level of fire, it neither too hot nor too mild. It was just right.
I haven't been to the restaurant proper, but I hear they put on an excellent AYCE buffet at lunchtime. -
Review from Lauren P.

We ordered delivery from Indian Star on a friends recommendation and it was great! I am so happy to find a good Indian place in New West. The portions were great, the dishes were very flavourful and their naan and samosas were especially delicious. We will definitely be ordering from them again.

I went there for Indian sweets. I was very disappointed that their name is so misleading... the only sweets they had were two items on the menu, not the typical showcase filled with desserts.
