Woodlands Indian Vegetarian Restaurant (Tsim Sha Tsui) — Restaurant in Kowloon

Positives & hoodwinking: Good Food & service . Staff is also very friendly and attentive.

Caution: Keep 10 % extra budget as your bill from the menu price that you see gets added by 10 % more on the pretext of service charges. You will need to pay HKD 50 EXTRA on a HKD 500 food bill.

Recommendation: Pl add this to you menu price or mention this to your guest to avoid getting shock treatment when bill is presented. One star skipped for this reason.

Over crowded: The celebrity visits you have posted on your wall are about 2 to 3 decades old.. Don't take your customer for GRANTED 😮😮!!

Update: Your arrogant response has got to post an update. Who decides to pay for your service?? Customer right? So let him get , assess and decide to pay for the same.

a) Why not write on the top of your menu in bold print that you charge 10 % extra for so called SERVICE that you are charging for ( nothing but hoodwinking the customer who will be embarassed to pay you when you present the bill , since he did not read your FINE PRINT at the bottom of your menu and place his order in good faith!!! )

b) Your actual Menu price in the restaurant is much higher than what you have recently posted here online ( which is attached) . Again a double whammy on the Paying customer!

I just tried Sangeeta veg restaurant, your next door neighbour restaurant and they ( and other restaurants I tried, did not charge any service charge).

Be fair and update your menu price upwards with 10 % service charges and let the customer absorb it, with a smile.

Don't take your customer for GRANTED 😮😮!!

Woodland is one of the best place among all the vegetarian Indian cuisine in Hong Kong, good variety on the menu and very reasonable price. It’s definitely a good spot if you want to try something healthy vegetarian Indian food.

Appetiser (Free) 👍👍👍👍 complementary Crispy roll.

Dahi Batata Puri (Hk$65) 👍👍👍👍 This round hollow puri was light and crispy, stuffed with potato mixture, yoghurt and chutney, then showered with thin crisps and coriander on top. The flavour of this little ball was great and has just the right amount of creaminess without being too heavy, it was a light and refreshing starter to kick off our meal.

Paper Masala Dosa (HK$70) 👍👍👍👍👍 This paper thin, crispy wafer-like Paper Masala Dosa was filled with a mildly spiced potato masala and served with coconut chutney, tomato chutney and Sambar. It is flavourful to dip with all these condiments with your Dosa, the portion is huge that good enough for two to share.

Vegetable Biriyani (HK$70) 👍👍👍👍 This is the fried rice with mixed vegetables served alongside with yogurt salad, veggie curry. The basmati rice was fried with spices and veggies, it was packed full of flavourful and aromatic spices.

Masala Tea (HK$35) 👍👍👍👍 This cup of masala tea was contained with a mixture of spices and herbs, it was good to keep your body warm especially during winter days.

Mango Lassi (HK$35) 👍👍👍👍 A delicious blend of mangoes and yogurt, creamy...

If I say it was my worst experience in veg restaurant in Hongkong then don't surprise. I will go one by one. Please don't go with there review, he use dirty tricks to get review(Kindly see point no.2)

First they don't tell you but when you use table water they will charge for water bottle (Its not chargeable anywhere else for eg. Sangeeta restaurant or Sarvana Bhavan).

They will apply 10% service charge for only bring food to your table, they don't even serve you. If you asked for removing service charge they ask return to you write good review on Google then we will waive off service charge. They don't tell you while you ordering the food. Using this type of cheap trick they got the most review and if you say that I did not give the review then they talk rudely and use racism language It is not India. This part was so bad.

They don't have food quality with their price level. I have tried Veg biryani here and Sangeeta restaurant, Sangeeta have much much taste compare to this restaurant on same price.

So conclusion is this If you want to be fool, spend more price for worst taste food then choose woodland restaurant. Otherwise there are other best option where you can go. for example Sarvana Bhavan, Sangeeta...
