My wife and I walk past this place all the time, but have never tried it out. With everything going on at the moment, we thought we’d try something new to support our local businesses. So glad we did. There was definitely a cool laidback vibe to the place, and we were greeted to really friendly and attentive service. All the dishes we ordered were well presented, well seasoned and surprisingly one of the better tasting Indian restaurants I’ve tried. We had the onion rings, cigars, fish tikka and spinach chaat for starters, and all were delicious, well spiced and sizes were quite generous. For mains we had one of the chicken curry house specials (forgot the name!) With the garlic naan. Curry had just the right amount of spice and was a great way to finish off the meal (although we totally over ordered) Happy we found this little gem in our neighbourhood, and we will definitely be back.

Went to this tiny place for our anniversary. With my kids off course. I ordered Malai Prawn, Tandori Full, Khan Kalai Chicken, Eggplant Curry ( it think it was Called Bari2..not sure), some garlic Cheese Naan and Safron Rice. They are so good. I am fussy when it comes to food. Cos we can cook at home and we make authentic dishes. I usually add either Salt or something else .. but this time. Didn't have to do any of that. The prawn was cooked to perfection..Love them. The prices are on the high side. Off course .. Place is tiny, but clean and accommodating Their spicy level..is not spicy at all. So if you like spicy.. ask them you want Indian spicy k! Waiters are not that welcoming from my point of view.. 1 person was way too serious.. I was a bit scared of her honestly. The other was soo timid. I think she was super scared with the other one.. 🤣

We ordered two dishes with side. We had the first one 40 mins later after the order. And we were waiting the rest of the food paitently til receiving the food to the next our table. They were obviously ordered thier food later than us alleast 20 mins. This happens later, we asked the waitress our food and then she said that " its coming". We got our final food after 1 hour and half later from my order. It's too much time wasting for one food. We heard that people who sit the next table complained the food was not coming. It seems like that they got the food that we ordered after their complaints before us. The waitess should be aware of the food order eventhough other table compalined it. We visited third time so far. It was definitely worst experience compared to the preivous.

Day 1 we ordered takeaway🥡 1) Methi Mutter Malai - 4.5/5 (creamy and yummy. Didn’t expect to have paneer in it, but it didn’t taste bad) 2) Butter Roti - 3/5 3) Mango Lassi - 2.5/5 (was a big watery, and had a weird tangy taste to it) 4) Butter Sauce VEG - ZERO - rating this zero because we wanted to have veg due to Diwali so we ordered the VEG butter sauce which apparently is very popular, but to our surprise when we came home it was BUTTER CHICKEN. #Disappointed Day 2 we went for dine-in 1) Monk on Fire - 4/5 (yum thigh pieces on a sizzling platter) 2) Tandoori Fish Tikka - 3/5 (loved the marinade but the fish was overcooked) 3) Chicken Dum Biryani - 4/5 (rice was nicely cooked, coated and mixed with spices)

Ordered the masala chips which was basically fries tossed in some kind of powdery spice, was informed no aioli even though was advertised in menu. Saffron rice I ordered was a shocker, dry reheated rice with some colour in it. It's advertised as saffron rice cooked with nuts and raisins. Got a bowl of yellow rice which the waitress insisted was saffron rice, I asked her to get me as described in the menu, bowl was taken back to the kitchen and was immediately sent back decorated with 1 small coriander leaf torn into 3 pieces, a few raw almond flakes 🤷🏾♀️ I believe? and 5 small raisins.Shocker in the inner West.! Maybe was just a bad day in the kitchen but 1 place crossed off my list for any socials

A rare Indian food scene in the middle of Leichhardt. The restaurant is small and decorated with neon signs and has a bar in the front. Food tastes delicious and generously portioned. Daal makhani is my must try in every Indian restaurant and no exception here either. Buttery daal and beans, creamy sauce and great spices. The signature chicken curry wasn’t bad but no stand out for me. Garlic naans are fragrant and cooked to perfection. Complimentary entree of pappadum and mint yoghurt dip. Service is 4/5 - food takes quite long (around 20-30 mins) to get to your table as they seemed to prioritise takeaway and delivery orders. Staff is professional and occasionally come by to check on you.
