Mithaiwala Tauranga — Restaurant in North Island

My partner and I ordered the “Royal” combo meal, which came with three curries, rice, naan bread, mango lassi, and a cooked-and-smashed samosa served in its own bowl with sauces. It also included a dessert ball (the name escapes me). The curries were tasty—distinctly different from the mainstream offerings—and the naan was fresh and crispy. The samosa was excellent too. Overall, it was a great dining experience with curries unlike those typically found in mall restaurants.

We actually went back the next day to try more—grabbed a bunch of samosas and some pocket-style snacks. They were okay, but the Royal combo is definitely the standout deal!

They have a few of these shops in Hamilton, which is great to see—but it would be even better if they included English labels in front of their dishes. It’d make exploring their menu a lot easier...

Ordered today 2 large Thali And they were not filled properly only filled up half 🙄 very disappointing. The service of the guy this morning was not as great as it was bfr we visited once and had a grt service.but today was bad not value for money. We ordered stuff worth $69.90

I would like to upload the pictures of my thali not filled full only filled 60% It's not allowing me to upload pictures ...

We had a thali meal of three curries which all had great variance and even came with a little dessert thing. Bread pakora was decent but not great. I'd rate this place pretty highly even separating the menu items to north and south Indian. I'll be...
