Masala Roots · Victoria, BC · $21.00 hourly

Posted 2026-08-24 · Reviewed on 2026-09-09 · What do these ratings mean?

Verdict

Masala Roots is a verified real restaurant (businessMatch 'match', site reachable) and the mailing address was confirmed as its actual business location, which defuses the mail_physical_resume flag for a cook role. However, applications go to a free consumer address (jobs.masalaroots@outlook.com), and there is a locationMatch 'mismatch' (posting says Victoria while the restaurant is in the adjacent municipality of View Royal), though the web summary shows this is a minor municipal-boundary discrepancy. Net result is low-medium risk.

SummaryMasala Roots is a real, established Indian restaurant with an official website. However, there is a LOCATION MISMATCH: the posting claims "Victoria, BC" but the company's actual address is 262A Island Highway, View Royal, BC V9B 1G2 (View Royal is a separate municipality near Victoria). The mailing address in the posting (A262 Island Hwy, Victoria, BC V9B 1G2) appears to be the company's legitimate business location, not a residential/PO box/virtual address—it's their actual restaurant. The address format discrepancy (A262 vs 262A) is minor.
