Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Not for the first time, we left the Cinnamon Club feeling really happy and privileged to live within walking distance. It was a wickedly cold night, but we had Black Pepper Chicken Curry warming us from the inside out. What a complex and exotic dish...it is. It was the first time I'd ordered it and, lamenting the loss of the three-vindaloo special, I was seeking a new thrill. I found it. We also had vegetarian kofta balls and Tandoori lamb chops - both divine. And, we had the most stunning service to make it all feel perfect. Brava and thanks, Cinnamon Club.More

Decided to take a pot luck approach to finding a restaurant in Norwood.. wherever we could find a parking space then we’d eat at the nearest restaurant. Hence the Cinnamon Club. Greeted warmly & table going for us despite no booking and a Friday night....Extensive food & drinks menu. Decided to order for the table rather than individual dishes. Entree-popadoms, chutneys & Vegetarian samosas. Main-Goain fish curry, butter chicken, lamb Rohan gosh, aloo, and a spinach & feta dish, plain naan, 2 garlic naan & rice. Bottle of rose ($72 pp for 3 of us). Food was outstanding, spice level exactly what we requested. Large portions so several takeaway boxes needed. Wine dry & crisp So pleased with our pot luck .. will definitely go backMore

Have had takeaway from here several times since we moved to the area. Food is really consistently excellent. However, every time I go there to collect our order, the owner is consistently rude. He looks as if you are imposing on him by daring to...bother him for the food you’ve ordered from his business. All you get is a grunt as a greeting, no eye contact, and once you’ve said your name, he hands you your order and does not speak to you again. He shoves the eftpos tablet in front of you and points to the spot to swipe. That’s it. This must be the fifth time I’ve been there and it’s been the same every time. I am always friendly and polite, so it cannot be I response to anything I’ve said or done. I don’t expect anyone to bow down to me and kiss my a*se, but it always baffles me as to why people who are so rude and arrogant get into “hospitality”. If you don’t like other people and don’t like to show even the most basic level of acknowledgment or appreciation to your customers, find another line of work. Although we love the food here, we’re hunting around for a friendlier Indian place. My suggestion would be to do the same and spend your money at small businesses that actually care about their customers.More

I can report favourably on the food here but the service is astonishingly bad. A restaurant that chooses Uber Eats over its in house diners and believes that to be OK deserves to be shut down as an eat-in option. We waited over an hour...for food while hundreds of dinners went out the door with drivers. In any other country you would get your meal for free for suffering the inconvenience, but not at this narcissistic joint. Pity because the food is OK - just never eat there on a Saturday night.More

Fantastic Indian cuisine and probably the best I’ve tasted around Australia & UK (we’re from the UK and have tasted curries around the world). The menu was extensive, the food was outstanding and spicy (unusual for Aussie tastes). The hosts were very flexible with the...menus and provided off-menu options the Chicken Tikka Jalfreizi was amazing as was the vegetarian Mushroom version. The 4 Variety Vindaloo dish was sublime, mushroom, beetroot, lamb etc (ignore the menu on this site, it barely scratches the service of what they offer in house). If you’re in Adelaide, get yourself down to Norwood for this exceptional experience!More

This is my usual Indian Restaurant in Adelaide and rather than my go to dishes of Lamb Korma, Rogan Josh or Palak Kofte and Saag Paneer which are excellent, we chose a coupe of entrees. The Veg Pakoras unfortunately were the worst Pakoras I have...ever had and the Samosa Chat was just average, too westernized with lettuce surrounds rather than plenty of chutneys and yoghurt. I'll be back again but stick to what I know is goodMore

Arrived without a booking on a Tuesday. They were not at all full but we’re unsure about offering a table for the 4 of us. Food was good and fast but the table was cleared before my husband had finished eating. He was still chewing...when they removed his plate! Good food, very unwelcoming and poor service. We have been before, but were disappointed this time. Not sure we’ll be back.More

A fantastic warm greeting is only topped by the quality of the Indian food here. Excellent wine list is complimented by a vast array of interesting dishes. We chose the Romalli roti and lamb mince and an innovative dish of a variety of four vindaloos....All tasted magnificent. Coupled with a brilliant Tarka Dahl. Leave room for the chocolate samosas, delicious! Fantastic evening, great service and food..More

it was pouring with rain outside and we arrived with no booking on a busy night after an Adelaide Festival theatre event across the road. After a short wait we were found a table and although a bit squashed - which was our choice -...we dived into the extensive menu. Considering how busy the restaurant was, I fully expected a long wait for service. Instead, the service was efficient and friendly and the food came out surprisingly quickly. The food itself was superb as was the recommended wine. After first courses, we moved to a larger table and shared mains and desserts which were excellent. Great convivial atmosphere and top food.More

A great atmosphere, the aromas - as expected - were ‘food to the senses’. My wife and I dined at CC last Sat night with another couple. Service? Brilliant! Food? Outstanding! We chose a table outside for a bit more space and it was a...good move. Prices? Very reasonable for good serves of Butter Chicken, Lamb Tikka as well as samosas and saffron rice with garlic and plain naan. I’d go back in a heartbeat. Only downside - a small Indian beer (a bit of a palate cleanser) was almost $11 a bottle!More
