Our Story

"Kondattam" is a Tamil word that translates to "celebration," capturing the essence of what we aim to bring to every dish and every experience. At Kondattam, we believe that food is a joyful celebration of flavours, traditions, and connections.

Inspired by our founder Sudha’s heritage, who was born and raised in India, Kondattam brings the warmth, authenticity, and vibrancy of Indian gatherings to Calgary. Growing up, Sudha experienced every meal as a cherished moment shared with family and friends, filled with vibrant spices, laughter, and stories. Kondattam was created to share that same spirit of togetherness and festivity with the Calgary community.

As a woman-owned and BIPOC-operated establishment, we bring a unique perspective to the dining experience, creating a welcoming space where diversity is celebrated and everyone feels at home. Our dedication to inclusivity, coupled with culinary expertise, positions Kondattam as the premier destination for Indian cuisine in downtown Calgary.

Our menu is a fusion of traditional Indian dishes with a modern twist. From fiery North Indian tandoori delights to coconut-infused curries from the South, each dish is crafted to capture the authenticity and uniqueness of its regional origins. We also prioritize sustainable sourcing, supporting local farmers and producers whenever possible.

Whether you're here for a quick bite or a long, leisurely meal, Kondattam invites you to join us in celebrating the art of Indian cuisine. We look forward to making every visit a memorable experience that leaves you feeling connected, satisfied, and inspired to return.
