The Vegetable Samosa is the iconic Indian starter, and at The Social Kabob in Okotoks we make ours the traditional way: a flaky hand-folded pastry shell filled with spiced potato, sweet peas, fresh ginger, cumin and coriander. Fried golden and served with mint and tamarind chutney, our samosas are made fresh every day — the authentic taste of Indian street food, right here in the Foothills.
At The Social Kabob in Okotoks, we take pride in serving the most authentic Vegetable Samosa in the Foothills region. Our kitchen uses traditional East Indian cooking methods passed down through generations, combined with the freshest ingredients available.
Voted Okotoks' Best Restaurant 2024 by readers of the Western Wheel, we are a family-owned restaurant founded by Amit Kumar with partners Jagdish Johal and Sachin Pajjii. Every dish is prepared with personal care so that locals across Okotoks — and our friends in High River, Cimarron, Drake Landing, Westmount and surrounding communities — can enjoy authentic Indian flavour without driving into Calgary.
Most takeout samosas are factory-frozen; ours are not. We hand-fold the pastry, spice the potato filling in-house, and fry to order so the shell stays shatter-crisp. Vegetarian and vegan-friendly by request — just one of the small ways we deliver on authentic Indian quality in Okotoks.
"Huge congratulations to The Social Kabob Okotoks team for being voted Okotoks' Best Restaurant! So proud of this amazing local restaurant and all they do for our community."
"The best Indian food in Okotoks. Before discovering this place I was having to travel into Calgary to find a decent curry — no need now. Reasonably priced too."
"This is an elevated version of what I would expect if I went to a home in India for an authentic meal! The food was incredibly good, came out fast, the service was great and prices are very reasonable. We will definitely be back."
