I ordered the butter chicken, which was a very reasonable price of $22. Ordered it and within 15 minutes, it was already at my table, steaming hot. The pappadaum and naan bread were amazing created, and complemented the chicken and sauce very well. The chicken was tender and delicious, but would've like a larger portion size of chicken. The sauce was delicious and light, not too overpowering. It was also quite spicy, but still controlled enough that you were able to taste the flavour of the sauce. The rice was the tiniest bit overcooked, but all mixed together, was barely noticeable. The staff were lovely and friendly. My parents ordered pizza from their wood-fired oven, and had no complaints. The only complaint about the night were lots of kids running around, on a Tuesday night when we expected it to be quiet. We didn't mind them running around, but screaming because they won chocolate from a machine 5 metres from our table and parents no-where in sight did try and put a dampener on our night, but we moved to the sports section, and had a lovely night watching the tennis on a huge screen and having a chat. Obviously not the fault of the staff, but possibly just poor positioning of having a chocolate machine for kids physically inside the restaurant. Overall, extremely reasonable prices, with a wide genre of food for everyone, a pleasant atmosphere, great drinks, plenty of spots to hide away, have a chat and watch the sport and great food! Would love to go again when...

Read moreDisgraceful. We had one beautiful staff member check in (Ivy?) and one lovely man at the pizza area (Stuart) but other than that, I would give zero stars.
My pumpkin and feta salad was almost all green leaves (baby spinach and rocket), with barely any substance. My husband had the Mongolian beef which was absolutely saturated in sauce and had no real substance. We ordered (and paid for!) extra veggies, only to find 3 bits of broccoli and the rest was extra extra red capsicum.
Both these meals were unacceptable, expensive and relatively tasteless.
If you're here, get a drink and a takeaway from the shops at Bay Village because you'll get better value, better taste and (mostly) better service.
0/10 with the exception of the guy at the pizza place and the lovely woman who checked in to see if the meals were ok.
Avoid. 0/10 do not recommend.
the photo of just the leaves shows how much green was included, and how little actual substance it contained. Absolutely...
