Royal Indian & Pakistani Restaurant — Restaurant in Sydney

Surprsingly my friend and I had a craving for Indian food when we met up for my birthday dinner on Thursday night. We went to Royal Indian and Pakistani Restaurant on Lock Street, Blacktown. The service staff was friendly and patient as we could not make up our mind what to order. Out of the colourful menu, we settled for chicken vindaloo, lamb rogan josh, goat biryani and plain naan. Each dish was so delicious and rich with intense flavours. We could savour the full taste of the natural aromatic spices. The meat were cooked moist and tender in the curries which were so satisfying with the naan. The plain naan is not only baked plain but soft. I had mango lassi, which was well balanced in its smooth taste and sweetness. We left the restaurant, with big smiles after a most satisfying dinner. Will go back next week to celebrate the birthdays of two dear friends. Thank you,...

It was not oily and I not only enjoyed it with a friend, I actually returned and ordered the same lamb beriyani. It was too much for just one person, so I packed it up. The staff should be commended for their friendliness with a big smile on their faces. Only thing that kept me from experiencing a 100 percent is that when you want to add to your order or find a staff to speak to, they are not to be found at the reception. It's good to have a bell that we can ring ....but then...... while you are really enjoying a good meal, you do not want to get out of your...

I didn't have a good experience with them. Took a take away. Sarso ka saag, lacha prantha, roti and malai chicken tikka. Saag was nice but everything else was disappointing. Both the breads were dry. Chicken tikka wasn't cooked properly. It was all red from inside. I had to throw it in rubbish bin. May be their other food items are food but I had a really bad experience. It was my first order as well. I think the chef / cook was not much interested in cooking because when my order was getting ready he was sitting outside on bench busy on his phone. The girl who took my order, i think she prepared everything. The cook went inside just for 5...
