Serving authentic North Indian cuisine in downtown Winnipeg for over 25 years. Located at 141 Donald Street, we bring you traditional Indian flavors with fresh ingredients, tandoor-baked naan, and time-honored cooking techniques. Ranked among the top restaurants in Winnipeg on TripAdvisor.
Ivory Restaurant, located at 141 Donald Street in the heart of downtown Winnipeg, is one of the city's most celebrated Indian dining destinations — proudly serving the Winnipeg community for over 25 years. The restaurant offers a refined yet welcoming culinary experience that captures the full essence of Indian cuisine, from rich, aromatic curries to freshly baked naan and signature tandoori specialties.
Nestled in Winnipeg's bustling downtown core — just two blocks from Canada Life Centre — Ivory occupies a bright, contemporary dining room that blends modern elegance with warm Indian hospitality. The restaurant is a long-standing favourite for downtown lunch meetings, pre-game dinners, date nights, family gatherings, and corporate events.
At the heart of Ivory's kitchen is a traditional tandoor oven, where naan bread is baked fresh to order — not left sitting under a heat lamp. The menu spans an impressive range, from vegetarian and vegan dishes to meat-forward classics like Butter Chicken, Lamb Vindaloo, and Chicken 99. Guests can choose between a generous buffet (lunch and dinner) or an extensive à la carte menu.

"The Ivory is truly an icon of Winnipeg. The food, decor, ambience, and not to mention the service that makes you feel like you're family, are simply addictive! Such genuine, humble, and honest people! They manage to make you feel as comfortable as if you were going to your own home."
"My colleagues and I almost accidentally stumbled upon this excellent Indian restaurant during a business trip and we actually went twice! The buffet is varied and each dish is delicious and obviously prepared with great care. Prices are very reasonable and service is with a smile!"
"We ordered takeout from Ivory. The order was ready on time and the hostess was very friendly. All of the dishes were excellent and the butter chicken was probably the best I've had in Winnipeg. I thought the price was also very reasonable for the amount of food."
