The paneer Tikka masala was great! Entrees come with rice. Garlic naan was good. The deal makhani was flavorful but a bit too salty for my taste. Food arrived hot. They even included plastic ware! One of the best Indian places I've found in Brooklyn.

Delicious food! Ordered take-out and everything was well-made and well-spiced. Tikka Masala, ordered at medium spicy, was the best I've had in the area, and their Achari Begun, an eggplant dish, was also fantastic. Highly recommend for a nice casual dinner.

Kanan is the best. We get take out at least 2 times a month, they are quick, the quality is so good, and the staff is incredibly kind. I also highly recommend dining in for the beautiful presentation of their dishes. I'd never had Lamb Dostana before Kanan, and it is one of my favorite dishes now. I couldn't recommend this place more.

5/5 food (chana masala, aloo matar gobi) and 6/5 service eating there in person. Excellent restaurant and quite good prices.

I have never been brought to tears by food before. My GF and I ate in and this was the best meal I have EVER had. Perfectly cooked rice and the best Tikka Masala paneer EVER. the naan was fluffy and flavorful. The server was checking in on us often and even provided water for my service dog.

Dined in after a show at the Bell House - it was a perfect way to end the night. Super delicious, great prices, and our waitress was the sweetest. I don’t know her name but she was super attentive and kind. Definitely check this place out!

I had ordered several items on their menu for our office party. Ms. Suchi (owner) was the one who took my orders and she was very kind, generous and helped me choose the vegan items from their menu. Despite having a limited budget, she gave me a discount and was able to accommodate all my requests. They delivered my orders on time, the portions were huge and everyone at the party ENJOYED and were SATISFIED with the delicious entrees that Kanan restaurant provided. To Ms. Suchi and the staff at Kanan, I extend my sincerest gratitude for making our party a memorable one.

I order from here all the time. Its always fantastic. The lamb dostana is a unique and incredible dish thats my go to but I’ve had most of their mains (usually with their lamb which is very tender) and they are all delicious. Lovely people too!
