✨Quaint little gem hidden in Aurora✨? Excellent service? Delicious food? Reasonable wait time for food? Fairly pricedWhat would make this place even more lovely would be if the owners cleaned up the back garden and arranged an outdoor patio seating area ?? Also, if the milk in the little white jug was served warm with the coffee ☺️☕️ (but that’s the Brit in me just being a snob???????)Can’t wait to come back here for lunch and dinner sometime in the near future ?

Wonderful service! Great view and awesome food. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

Very lovely small restaurant, only handful of tables. Reservations is highly recommended. They have a good selection of teas. One of the best mango salad I ever had. Great portion size. Their prices are very friendly. For the portions of dish, price is consider cheap. Will definitely visit again.

The wine and the desert were great The muddy salmon overcooked, with a gelatinous piece of skin. Cold vegetables. Patrones seated too close for COVID safety. Service was slow. No compensation was offered. So changed!. Won't be going back.

Enjoyed a very good breakfast.

The service was excellent and the food was delicious. And the view is beautiful as well.

Yesterday I met with my best friend…love the owners and their

This cozy restaurant, situated in a heritage home, seats just 26 people, so unless your group is bigger than that, you don't need to look any further for a gathering spot in downtown Aurora. Bijoy and Sujata are chefs with 30 years of experience in 5-star hotels, trained at the Culinary Institute of America in New York, and this shows in the menu and amazing quality of their dishes. This was a first visit for us as we are not often in the Aurora area, but rest assured, it's now our go-to place whenever we have the opportunity. We were there with a group of 15. Some in our group ordered the soup du jour, which was declared excellent. Some ordered the tikka masala (chicken or vegetarian), some butter chicken (including my husband), and one ordered the salmon with mango salsa (me). Everything was fantastic - absolutely no complaints. One couple even ordered two boxes of tikka masala to take away since it was so good and they had a long drive home afterwards. Desserts were all fabulous. In addition to the semifreddo (ordered by me) and the chocolate lava (ordered by a few), the pavlova, the chefs' signature dessert, was devoured by those who selected it. My cousin declared herself "almost defeated" as the pavlova was huge and could easily have been shared by four. Pavlova is difficult to get right (I've tried making it myself twice), and Bijoy's was absolutely perfect. Highly recommended. You won't be disappointed. And the lunch-time prices were very reasonable given the quality of the food. Service was good and very friendly. They also have an extensive tea menu, as well as coffee and alcohol (wine and beer).

If you are looking for a great place to eat in an intimate setting this is the place to go. The food is absolutely outstanding. The service goes well beyond expectations; the staff are warm and welcoming. We had a small wedding dinner/celebration here and cannot overstate how awesome it was.

First off let me say prior to COVID I have dined here numerous times and always enjoyed my meal and have recommended the restaurant to people I know. We missed Bijoys so we decided to order take out given how much we enjoyed our dinners in the past we were excited. Our entrees were $15.00 each the portions were ridiculously small for that price. They were the size of a loblaws frozen dinner for one which means two of us had to make sandwiches after out take out dinner to fill up. In the case of my shrimp curry the loblaws version would have been better. I think these meals may have been frozen and reheated. Bijoys may have had an off night but they need to step up the portions and quality. For the same price as one entree I could feed two with one order from shawarmaland.
