I had just arrived in Tāupo in the evening, coming from Rotorua, tired after a long day, and hungry after not having had time to eat all day I hence had to make a good choice for my dinner I saw that restaurant when passing by, it caught my attention, I checked its reviews and was confident about it... Knowing how Indian food can be spicy, I asked them if they had non spicy options. I was recommended mild butter chicken, and so I went for it... good move! It was yummy, came with raisin (dried fruits) too, nice surprise As a side I had garlic cheese naan, there was a lot And as a drink I asked for another Indian classic, mango lassi I fell well full after this (and remember I hadn't eaten all day), with yummy food (and having lived in India for 5 months I had expectations) Oh and staff members are well friendly, we talked about my time in India, cool people Comfy seats And some Indian paintings on the...
Read moreI ordered from here a little while ago but haven't got to writing a review till now. Wasn't a fantastic experience. I placed an online order for my food to be delivered at 6:45.

The staff are so lovely, friendly and helpful- they're an absolute delight. Most of the other places in Taupo are overcrowded and often overpriced - presumably due to being a common tourist spot.
This place is excellent value for money - and legitimately the best curry I have ever had! (and I'm from Wellington - there is tons of food there hahah) The outside looks pretty low key - but when you go inside its beautifully set up. Their serving dishes when you eat in are so unique (in a good way).
I also noticed during my time there that they seemed to have a lot of regular/repeat customers. I think that says a lot about their quality, consistency, and generally...
