Food: Rewarding adventure for your taste buds

Nina's Indian Grocery offers all the intrigue of a culinary cryptid - a fusion of familiar and foreign that charms your palate. Comments range from rapturous odes to its flavourful cuisine and creative platter, to cheerfully loud praises for the generous portions. The freshness of the ingredients warrants a neutral opinion, though - you might just want to double-check those expiration dates. With an array of enticing food choices, at friendly prices, it's hard not to find something that tickles the taste buds.

Vibe: Lackluster ambiance dampens culinary joy

Imagine shaking hands with a snowman - interesting, right? Now imagine that in a cafeteria setting. Nina's ambiance lacks zing, a lukewarm reception extends to its drinks offering too. Casual and laid back, that's undeniable, but don't expect this to be the setting you'd charm your first date in. The upside? You won't be craving for an assorted cocktail here.

  • Bad Drinks

    The bar only covers staples, lacking interesting drink options.

Perks: Inharmonious noise curtails tranquil dining

Picture this; you're seated in a crowded dining area, subjected to a blaring televised cacophony that shatters your whispering conversation into fragments. Large groups will find themselves navigating through this high-traffic scenario. However, credit is due; from a commendable loading dock for your car to serving a smorgasbord of dietary needs – this is one place that doesn't drop the baton completely. Although, inconsistent service and occasional show of rudeness by the staff could put a damper on the whole experience.

  • Great For Diets

    Accommodating to special dietary needs with delicious vegetarian options.

  • Okay To Park

    Overall, parking is ample and free, though it can be crowded sometimes.

  • Bad Service

    Inconsistent service with rude staff, leading to negative dining experiences.
