    Yummy. Very tasty. I tried the butter chicken and my wife the one with spinach and cheese.
    Quick too.
    Will go back, for sure.

    This is not a fancy place but the food is delicious and  the portions are huge.  They also have a great selection of different flavours.  This is a real treat!

    Went here May 5th 2012. Awesome butter chicken roti, almost as good as Mother India on Queen West [that's the gold standard to me]. Chana roti was tasty but the chickpeas were still somewhat al dente, so just OK - but qualified because I was the first customer on Saturday at noon so maybe the chana didn't have time to cook? Anyway a solid roti place [if somewhat oily] and a asset to the neighborhood - very glad I don't have to go to Parkdale to get roti.

    When we can't make it down to Queen West for Gandhi's rotis, we swing by here.  I think the story is that the owners of Roti Time were trained by the Gandhi guys so the food is quite on par.

    I always get the same thing - mattar paneer roti ($10).  As I watch them pour the cream to make the sauce, I'm sure that one roti probably has the calorie equivalent of 5 Big Macs so I can just hear myself getting fatter.  The roti is large and I can only eat about 1/2 in one sitting.  It's stuffed with plenty of peas and cubes of cheese.

    We usually grab our food to go but there is a small dining room.  Plenty of parking near by on the residential streets and in the Walmart parking lot across the street.

    Ok so we go here all the time now and it's as consistent and good as Gandhi's/Mother India. Fantastic stuff and they've ironed out all the kinks.

    The food here tastes great, but it is cooked with too much oil.   That explains why the dish stays hot for several hours after it is cooked.

    I ordered the spinach and potato roti and paid extra to have eggplant inside as well.  I thought that it would be healtier to have more vegetables, but I was wrong.  

    I will order from here again, but I will not do it often because I am cautious about unheathy foods.

    Came here at 2 pm and had to wait about 20 mins for a spicy chicken roti.

    Was it worth it?

    I believe so. Now, I took the roti to go, so I don't have much to say in regards to the location for a sit-down meal. What I can say, is that the place is small. Really small. The staff is pretty good, as in the one guy behind the counter that took my order, and the place was clean (which is always good for a restaurant).

    Now, the question is, will I go back. Answer, yes, just not anytime soon. The Chicken Roti ended up costing me about $12. It was worth it, just a little too expensive for a quick lunch outing. But, I'll go back again.

    I too am a Ghandi's veteran and found Roti Time to be a little disappointing. It's very hard for me to say that... I mean the food was great... it's just that once you've had the original Gandhi's, it's hard to hold a candle to them so to speak.

    The innards were "pastier" than Gandhi's, not as rich and tangy as I'm used to. Also, I found the roti shell to be overcooked and dry, not pliable and moist as it is at the parent location.

    I'll still go back to get my weekend roti fix.

    I am glad this place opened in the area.
    Although the Indian roti is not my favourite (I love Caribbean rotis), this one was pretty good.
    I didn't know they are the same guys close to Queen and Bathurst, so I asked for the spiciest roti available. When I realized, it was too late, as my roti was ultra super hot.
    The chicken roti was very good, but I'm not an expert.
    The service was incredible. I don't remember getting service as good as this even in expensive restaurants. They are very nice, provide you with plenty of water and make sure you are not missing anything.
    The place is clean and bright with lots of natural light due to the windows all over the place.
    It is also well priced.
    I will definitely come back, next time to try the butter chicken.
