Bend It With Vikram Pop Up! - Toronto
Menu
A comprehensive menu of Bend It With Vikram Pop Up! from Toronto featuring all 8 dishes and drinks can be found here on the menu.
In a recent dining experience, patrons expressed their discontent with a restaurant that failed to live up to expectations. Housed within a hotel lobby, the ambiance was uninspiring, and the high prices did not correspond to the quality of the food, which felt reheated and lacked variety. Despite the shining service from the attentive server, the meal itself was a letdown, resembling offerings from a modest corner Indian eatery rather than reflecting the prestigious standards of chef Vikram’s renowned Vancouver establishment. Overall, diners found the experience underwhelming and not worth the significant price.

What Paul Keebler dislikes about Bend It With Vikram Pop Up!:
I've been to Vij's restaurant in Vancouver several times and often cook from his books, so I was a bit disappointed with this pop-up format. The food was decent, but the standout dish was definitely the Lamb Pikels; the rest of the dishes were just okay. Unfortunately, the service and the location felt pretty average (is it really just a hotel restaurant?). I probably wouldn't return for the food or anything else. View all feedback.
I was several times in the restaurant of vij’s vancouver and regularly cook out of his books, so I was somewhat disappointed with this pop-up approach. that was okay. the best part were the lamb picles, but the rest was just ok, unfortunately. the service and the location were quite average (a hotel restaurant? . I would no longer visit this place for eating or something.
Unfortunately it did not meet our expectations, it was expensive for what it was. the food was good, but there was no choice and there was not enough sort. the lobby of the hotel was missing from a slot machine. it was a kind of expected vikram to be there, he was not! our server, tatiana, was the redeeming factor. she was attentive and friendly (not easy to find in toronto)!
I thought we were sitting in the lobby of a hotel. the food was reheated and similar to the corner Indian restaurant. In view of the call of vikram, we expected a meal worthy of his vancouver restaurant and we were completely abandoned to a very expensive wise.

Overpriced and lacking in flavor. I felt like we were seated in a hotel lobby. The food was reheated and reminiscent of a corner Indian restaurant. Given Vikram's reputation, we expected a meal that would reflect the quality of his Vancouver establishment, but instead, we were left disappointed and with a hefty bill.
