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.

We went here with some friends during a visit to the Gold Coast. This place is worth driving too and the food was AMAZING! We ordered butter chicken, chicken tikka, beef madras and chicken korma. They were all amazing curries. The butter chicken was incredible one of the best that I have ever had. We ordered 4 kids butter chickens and they all loved it too. The pappadums were delicious. The naan bread was absolutely incredible, the best we've ever had. We will absolutely be coming back for another visit when next in the Gold Coast! If I lived close to here I think this would be my weekly indulgence! Well done to Chutney Mary's - we LOVED coming to your restaurant!

This out of the way Indian restaurant is worth looking for. My wife and I dined here last week and everything about the place was first class.
From the friendly service a to the delicious food we were both very satisfied. We had Naan Breads and two different curries all were good, we asked for them to be hot and they were fairly hot but could have been hotter.
Service is very good, we had a nice young lady looking after us. This restaurant offers BYO wine which is always welcome.
I would certainly came back here if I was in the area.

This is now our favorite Indian. I don't want to say much more because I want this to be our little secret so we can always get a table. But let me add that the flavors are authentically Indian, the same as is served in fine dining restaurants in 5 star hotels in Mumbai. And the staff are super friendly and helpful. Want more heat - no problem! Less heat - of course! Bring your friendly pup if you don't mind sitting outside but, for the best experience, take a table inside (without your dog of course!). Highly recommended.

If I could give this place no stars, then I would.
We visited on Saturday 26th November.
The one waitress couldn’t even be bothered to speak to us. She was consistently rude, huffing and puffing, slamming things on the table & was very open about the fact that she didn’t care. We asked for whichever been was on tap, to which she said there were none, only bottled - but there were 2 beers on tap.
We ordered madras and a korma arrived. The food was not good, awful meat & gristly chicken from the bone in the curry. Plates were never cleared after, we were completely ignored. Wish we’d have got up and left to begin with.

Food is excellent. My issue was delivery. Having eaten several times in the restaurant, we decided on a romantic dinner at home. The website says allow for 30-40 minutes for delivery. 80 mins later, I checked to see if they had received my order and was told the delivery person had left 5-7 mins ago and would be there soon. We live 5mins away. It would take another 25mins to arrive - almost 2hrs after I ordered. They had my phone number. Had they called to tell me they were busy, it would have been fine. Fortunately the food was delicious but I will not be ordering online in future.

The food at Chutney Marys at Boonooroo Park in Carrara is wonderful. Medium spice level allows you to taste the flavour of the dish with out burning. If you like it hotter just ask.
The Vindaloo is as fiery as you can handle.
Medium Butter Chicken and Medium Lamb Rogan Josh was ideal.

WOW just WOW. The food here is fantastic. Butter chicken is really tasty, and the beef Vindaloo was excellent tonight.
We have yet to have a bad meal here.
If you enjoy indian food then this is the place to go.
It is BYO or licensed, and the meal prices are great.
Excellent value for money

nice food tasted nice but, expensive imo,
the restaurant needs some dusting dust on the pendant lights and suspect other places need a bit of a clean, also needs better lighting -its dark sure it might be the atmosphere they want.

I was holidaying on the Gold Coast and had a yen for some Indian food. This place had five stars on Google so I gave it a go. The first thing you notice is how spotlessly clean this restaurant is. The decor is simple but modern. The restaurant is a family owned business and has apparently only been open for a year. After I ordered I got chatting with one of the co-owners. She was welcoming and friendly without being over the top. The beef Rojan Josh was fresh, hot and tender and the naan bread flaky and steaming hot. I liked the fact that being in a small strip shop behind a service station it was easy to find and park. Overall very impressed and great food. Highly recommended.

We bought takeaway butter chicken, cheese naan and saffron rice tonight. The butter chicken was beautiful, the naan was super cheesy and fresh and the rice was devoured. This is one of the best butter chicken dishes I have ever eaten. It was also very well priced. My Daughter enjoyed the meal, she wanted to drive back to the shop, just to say thank you to the staff and chef. Thank you, will definately be back when we come down to the Coast!

Own Time, Own Pace: The Ultimate Guide to Sneeky Mid-Weeky on the Gold Coast
Let’s face it—plotting paid leave around major holidays and long weekends is always tempting. Instead of vying (read: fighting) for these sought-after blocks, go off the beaten path with an energising mid-week break. Swap screen time for some well-deserved “me time” and revel in a calmer, more relaxed pace.
