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.

Not good in quality and quantity and the taste is so bad and the manager have too much attitude. Even they have no ice cubes as well drink.

We enjoyed a very tasty meal of entrees and main course. The flavours of fresh spices and quality ingredients made this one of the best Indian meals we have had in quite awhile.

The food is outstanding, beautifully blended flavours & fabulous menu. Lots of dishes to choose from. Excellent service. Ordered online & picked up due to Covid. Food was ready at specified time. My new favourite restaurant.

I’ve been here three times and every time I’ve been very impressed. As a vegetarian who eats Indian out fairly often I have to say the food here is some of the best I’ve had. It’s an unassuming place with plain decor and no frills...but if you don’t care about that and just want superb Indian, this place is right up there.More

Tried the butter chicken along with the garlic naan as a takeaway dish, very happy with my meal, it was flavourful, well priced & plenty to go around with leftovers for the next day.

We go to Indian regularly and this restaurant did not disappoint. The serves were generous and very tasty. The owner even gave us a complimentary mango lassi for the kids which was smooth and creamy. We also had colouring textas and paper tablecloths to keep...the kids entertained while we waited for our yummy food. Thanks, we will be back!More

My mum and I thoroughly enjoyed our butter chicken, lamb roganjosh, eggplant curry and lemon rice. The accompanying garlic naan was soft and deliciously flaky - perfect for mopping our plates. The servings were very generous. The service was friendly and fast.
