Our Story

About Us

The Indian aroma Kitchen is born out of the thirst for good and authentic North-Indian food in the Niagara region. Having two chefs in our family it was our dream to open a restaurant sometime but being from New Delhi it became difficult for us to find the kind of food that could remind us of our roots, that is when we thought of going ahead with realising our dream as soon as possible.

The Indian Aroma Kitchen boasts of an elaborate North-Indian menu. We have tried to incorporate a complete blend of quintessential flavors right from the heart of Indian streets to that of a lavish spread of a five-star Indian kitchen. This menu for sure is set to take you on a food walk across the flavourful North Indian streets from which you can not stop yourself to step away!

Our brand could not have been brought into the daylight without our head chefs. Chef Kamini and Chef Pallav are the backbone of this kitchen. While Chef Kamini is an expert of authentic Indian flavours, Chef Pallav is an expert in restaurant management and kitchen operations. It is the team of these two gems that has given birth and impetus to our family’s dream of starting an authentic Indian restaurant in Canada and spreading the flavours of joy and happiness of our roots all across.
