    Excellent food, prompt and friendly service without being obtrusive. I had Chicken Vindaloo with accompanying dishes and enjoyed every mouthful with my Kingfisher beer!

    I have eaten in Indian restaurants all over the world, and rarely experienced food with a balance of flavours such as in the Indian Down Under.
    I arrived from Perth at 10.45pm, and the staff were more than accomodating at such a late hour. I ordered the chef's signature dish, the lamb bhoona, accompanied by plain naan and plain rice and was more than impressed.
    Lovely restaurant, friendly staff and excaptional food. Johnny, from Ireland.

    Yummy food and good service. The goat curry is to die for. Don't mind the traditional Rajestan deco but liked the spacious seating where we were able to talk in private instead of the usually overcrowded joints in the city. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for good food and a good night out !

    Very standard Indian food, the usual suspects on the menu. Dull, boring, uninventive. But if you know nothing about Indian food and had to go here, you would not find it terrible, it's not, it's just that it's not terribly exciting or different. Indian food has so many flavours and exciting nuances and I so often wonder why most Indian restaurants don't reflect this. I am so tired of the butter chicken, Rogan Josh, vegetable korma. I have been to India several times and know there's more out there. I know there is.

    I ordered takeaway from here and was very disappointed. The curries were bland and the naan was terrible. I thought Indian was always a guaranteed good meal? I thought I'd give them a second chance but were again disappointed. I now travel 10 minutes in the car to get better Indian. I don't recommend this place.

    We discovered this place on New Year's Eve as most places were closed. The place was packed but we managed to get a table as a couple was just leaving. It was the best Indian Food we have tasted in Australia in 6 months of our stay travelling all around. Food tasted very authentic & portions were great for the price.

    Potts Point, your best kept food secret is out, that is to avoid this place. Came for takeaway's at 8 pm, there were 3 tables in the place. My curry was bland and sweet. One thin piece of Naan bread only. Very small portion of pickles. This came to just under $26.00 "with the takeaway discount" Geez I hate being ripped off. grrrrrr!

    Much better than its hokey name might suggest. Only had vegetarian dishes, but they were great. There's not many posher Indian restaurants in the East/City and this would be near the top of them.

    The best goat curry I've eaten in Sydney. The meat was so tender and the sauce delicious. The butter chicken was equally good. Will definitely make this my regular Indian Joint.
