They recently renovated and it's beautiful! Their food has always been incredible with lots of flavor and great portions. We order via door dash often and take out and great food every time. I Have tried other Indian cuisine restaurants in town and always come back to Devotional. I Could not recommend more.

Really good food and ambiance. The servers are pretty hospitable and were very quick . They took care of our order specifications “vegan”. The menu could have more vegan options as Indian cuisine is full of vegan options as alternatives are found easily. Pro tip to add more Hakka Chinese options. * favour of garlic in daal needed to be reviewed * Would recommend this place to a lot of people

Our first time eating here and we were pleasantly surprised how many vegan options they had. It all tasted amazing & although they were busy due to a show having just finished our service was quick & professional. We will definitely be back!

Great spot if you’re craving Indian food. The flavors are authentic and the dishes are served fresh and hot. Portions are generous and the prices are fair for the quality. The place has a cozy vibe and the staff are friendly and attentive. Definitely one of those restaurants you’ll want to come back to for a comforting meal

We've come a few times to this lovely little restaurant, as my son absolutely loves traditional Indian curry. We were very pleasantly surprised this time to see they have completely renovated the space! I absolutely love the rich colour's and funky wall decor and especially the new booths and tables!! The food was great and fairly fast. Definitely worth a try :) good date night or special dinner out now. We will be back.

The food was so good... that we were in Duncan Two and a half days and ate here twice! The butter chicken literally warms the soul, and the Naan... whooh, the Naan...I can't say enough about the Naan. The Naan is magical. The decor is basic and the lighting is dim... but you're not their for either... I honestly would have licked the plate clean but my wife would have been angry. Do yourself a favor and place an order!
