We had the tandoori chicken and onion bhaji for entrees, absolutely delish. For mains, butter chicken, lamb korma, beef vindaloo and lamb rogan josh, accompanied by some pappadums and garlic naan. All the dishes were delicious, just found my vindaloo to be lacking the heat I so desperately required, it was way to mild. But besides that, we enjoyed some wonderful dishes with friendly service. The only thing they need to improve on is waiting times, as they were quite slow even though it wasn't busy.

Purchased a $29 Scoopon - 3 courses + a soft drink, for 2 people.
The food itself was beautiful! The Onion Bhaji & Vegetable Samosa entrees were fresh, hot and delicious.
For our mains, we chose Chicken Korma and Butter Chicken - both were absolutely divine and were served with steamed rice and 2 servings of Garlic Naan Bread. Desert was a Mango Ice cream on a popsicle stick - obviously home made and very enjoyable as something different in a restaurant setting.
Only 2 complaints - Firstly, there were only 3 other couples in the restaurant. Despite the fact that there were only 8 of us there, we found the service to be a bit slow. The staff weren't rude but they certainly lacked a friendly smile.
Secondly, the terms of the voucher weren't explained by the staff there. All other places we have been to, went through what we were entitled to and what was excluded. I know I should have checked - adage to the fact that you should only trust yourself and not rely on the business!!
Consequently, we missed out on our drink which was part of the deal. The waiter never once asked what we would like to have as our drink - sneaky.
Great food but service slow and smile less! We had to drive a fair way to get there and it really didn't offer anything special to make us travel the extra distance again. Shame really as the food was very nice.

Loved the onion bhaji, something I always order, tried the butter chicken and so delicous, have also found the service to be slow on occasionl

Our voucher entitled us to an entree, main and dessert each.
We got the tasting platter for 2 which actually was quite good as it gave you a taste of pretty much each of the entrees offered.
Mains did a reasonable job, but the taste was a bit of a miss. There was cumin in one of them which I don't think is traditionally an Indian spice. Correct me someone if I'm wrong please.
Service was a little lacking at times, but they tried very well with the minimal skeleton staff they had for the night. I applaud them for their efforts.

Service was very friendly but they seemed rather disorganised and unprepared for users of the voucher as much of the voucher menu items were not available. There were only 2 staff working. 1 cooking and one serving customers. We were asked to return an hour later while they made the food. Upon our return we then had to wait another half an hour for our take away. The food was OK, a bit bland, not very spicey. My husband liked the meal more than I did. It was a very good value meal due to the coupon, but not a meal I would go out of my way to eat again.

We had a scoopon voucher and we ordered Tandoori Chicken and Chicken Tikka which was great and i was looking forward to the night but was to be disappointed . For our mains we orderered Butter Chicken and Lamb Korma, the food came out and the first thing I noticed was there was hardly any meat, the curries tasted like they came straight out of a jar, we couldn't order a hot chocolate because their coffee machine was broken, we couldn't order a entree of our choice because they had stopped serving that specific entree it at 8pm on a Friday night which I found strange. The waiter brought out our naan bread and I noticed we had two missing, I notified the waiter and she totally forgot about it apparently. Not the best experience, pretty average and will not be back.

Awful! Staff are rude, restaurant was dirty and food very ordinary. I was sick within 8 hours of eating it. I hope they are under new management when they re-opened.

We had a voucher from deals.com.au. The business has been closed for renovations for a few months. It is now re-opened and we were really impressed. The service was amazing, even though new the waiter was very efficient and courteous. The cook (maybe also owner) even came to our table to ask if we were enjoying our meal. Chicken tikka entree was a large serving, delicious and beautifully presented. Fish Amritsari was amazing. Butter chicken mains was a little smaller than I would have expected considering the entrees but was lovely. Lamb Rogan Josh was a bit disappointing and was lacking in 'Bite'. Desserts were yummy. If we lived in the area we would certainly return to sample more of their food.

Approximate cost: $14.00

My favourite Indian Restaurant, heaps of gluten free options as they don't use wheat flour much. Very filling, very good quality, lots of meat in dishes. Service was wonderful, decor lovely, very nice ambience. Had the Tandoori chicken, beef vindaloo, butter chicken, lamb korma, all very tasty. Had the carrot pudding, was really nice.

Approximate cost: $10.00
