Been coming here for ages and realized Iβve never actually left a review! Honestly, this place is so good. The staff are always super friendly, and the food never disappoints. You HAVE to try the fish curry-itβs amazing, and it has this perfect, subtle kick to it that isnβt too overpowering. Plus, the portions are huge and the prices are actually really reasonable. Definitely a hidden gem if you haven't been!

Loved the starters lamb chops, chicken kebab, fish dosa was outstanding. However the main course railway chicken and lamb korma curry was very average. I would definitely recommend this place.

Very high standard Indian dishes with additional changing regional specials. Service is friendly, knowledgeable and unobtrusive. The tables are well-spaced and large enough to accommodate multiple share dishes. The room is pleasant with considered attention to noise reduction, so the level is comfortably low. The wine list is adequate with the option to BYO at the reasonable cost of $5.00 My favourite Indian restaurant in Sydney.

I visited this restaurant with a couple of friends on a Friday night, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Everything was outstandingβfrom the food and wine to the atmosphere and service. The restaurant also offers BYO, which is a fantastic option for wine lovers. The menu is creative and thoughtfully curated, with plenty of interesting dishes to choose from. We shared four entrΓ©es and four mains, and every single dish was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. It's rare to find a place where every course exceeds expectations, but this was certainly one of them. A special thank you to the team for making us feel so welcome and for providing such a memorable dining experience. We will definitely be back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great meal in a relaxed and enjoyable setting.
