Good honest Indian food. Everything really fresh and the Nann is the best. Gary the head waiter is a really friendly guy and the service is always the way it should be. Have been going for years now. Downside - is it can be very noisey on a busy night. More

This is something of a local. The staff are really friendly and have always been great with kids. The korma is always lovely and I recommend trying the malabar (especially the sefood version). The spicy calamari starter is very nice and, washed down with a Kingfisher or a mango lassi especially, sets you up for a nice main. I have... More

during my 4 days, had food "everyday" there. The food is simply fantastic - great taste (no colors used, very balanced flavour). More importantly, the people running the place make you feel so at home that you can't help falling in love with it. Very warm people, take care of what you like & dislike. If you are looking for...

Maya da Dhabha makes amazing dosas (salted pancakes with potato and onion stuffing). They also make great chaat and the best part it is it is great value for money and fairly low cost. More

Don't be pushed around here. Refuse to sit near the front door - at least, until they've spent the $100 necessary on a mechanism to close it. Beware of tacit racism: sitting near the door or in the front window seemed reserved for Europeans who were therefore subject to blasts of cold air every time it blew open. Food is... More

Hey ... this place is great if you have a hearing aid and you are accompanied by people who speak really loudly! The service, attention from waiters is fabulous (especially the quirky older guy who looks as though he belongs in an Italian Opera - go figure that in an Indian restaurant) .. and the food is pretty OK ......

Fantatsic N. Indian food and am so exited to have found this in Sydney. Missed my trip to india this month and this restaurant made it bearable. Try the starter version of tandoori that has Fish Tikka and the lamb chops. Fantastic. Takeaway, totally different service experience. Half food was cold. Seemed like they served the older food via takeaway.... More
