An absolute joke of a business. This is the third time my partner and I have placed an order here, hoping for a better result. This was unfortunately not the case.

I ordered one malai kofta and two garlic naans over the phone at 5:14pm and was assured by a lady (perhaps the manager) that it would be ready in 20 minutes. We've been given this time frame before, but had to wait much longer after arriving at the restaurant. I arrived at the completely empty restaurant at 5:50pm (which, in my opinion, is plenty of time to prepare a single curry).

I was greeted by someone who appeared to have just woken up or had recently inhaled a large amount of indica. I was told that it would be ready in 5 minutes. I'm not sure why such a small order would take so long. It was well past the timeframe I was given, and the restaurant had no customers to serve.

15 minutes later, I'm still waiting and becoming frustrated. What's the hold-up? Not even any background music to help with the wait. Complete silence.

When the container arrived, I questioned if it was my order before it was sealed. Surely not, as the container was practically empty, with only one measly kofta ball resembling a stool sample. They argued that this was standard sizing. Anyone with a rational mind would recognise that this is not a regular size for a curry that’s costing $20.00.

I called the number I had originally called to place the order, and the lady answered while she was clearly driving. After hearing a bunch of ruffling around over the phone, I finally got her attention and told her what was going on. Unfortunately I paid on arrival, so I immediately requested a refund, which I’m currently waiting to hit my bank account.

Terrible service. Shocking food, and portions that are laughable. A complete disaster that leaves you wondering how people operate a business. Barkley Square side of Sydney Road is in dire need of a GOOD Indian restaurant! Save your time and money by ordering elsewhere.
