South Etobicoke is blessed with a number of very good Indian restaurants and this cuisine tends to lend itself to takeout, as it travels and reheats well without any loss of flavour or texture.
Here are some Top Tasty Community Favourite Take-outs which won’t disappoint as reviewed by Wayne Gibson, of the South Etobicoke News.
From the Mediterranean Shore of Syria to
Mimico, Mooring Eats, 2481 Lake Shore Blvd. W. 416-253-7171, has rapidly made a name for itself with its superb Middle
Eastern dishes. Try their homemade Baba Ghanoush as an appetizer and their Shish Tawook Plate with two sides and a main. Good take out service, delicious food and a hit on social media. Many residents love the food, which they describe as honest without cutting corners. Its no wonder why they have gained a loyal following.
Serving the Mimico Community for many years, Kothur,2356 Lake Shore Blvd., W., 416-253-5047, has
earned a reputation for serving quality Indian dishes at
reasonable prices. Try their Shrimp Biryani–shrimp in a tasty
basmati rice matrix with subtle spicing—or their Dal Makani—
dark lentils perfectly spiced. Open for both lunch and dinner.
Further West, in the heart of Alderwood, is Feast of Dilli, 378 Brown’s Line, 647-348-4567, serving reasonably priced Indian dishes. For a milder dish, try their butter chicken and for those liking the heat, the lamb

be taken out from this Brown’s Line favourite.
