Two Fat Indians - Dunedin — Restaurant in South Island

Disappointing Experience

Our recent visit to this restaurant was extremely disappointing and left us regretting our choice. From the moment we walked in, it was clear that hospitality was not a priority for the staff. We were not welcomed warmly, which set a negative tone for the entire evening.

Our server, who took our order, repeated it twice to confirm, yet we still received only a partial order. After a long wait, we inquired about the missing items, only to be told that they had forgotten about it. There was no apology or effort to rectify the situation, which was very frustrating.

The food itself was subpar. Who on earth puts curry leaves on top of kadhai paneer? It completely ruined the dish. Both curries we ordered lacked flavor and were very disappointing. The naan was another letdown – not only was it small in portion, but it also didn't taste good.

Overall, our experience was not good. If you don't want to ruin your family dinner time, I would advise you to avoid this place. The lack of hospitality and poor food quality made for a very...

Two Fat Indians is our new favourite curry destination.

The team are polite, passionate and offered an all round high quality experience.

I ordered the Lamb Korma (not listed on the menu, but would highly recommend), a vegan mango lassi, and a garlic nan.

My partner ordered the Jackfruit Masala, a coke zero, and a vegan garlic nan.

Both curries were rich in depth of flavour, prepared with quality ingredients and made with care.

I was especially impressed with the vegan options, in almost every other experience we have had with Indian restaurants, vegan options have been an afterthought. Not at Two Fat Indians though, from the lassi, to the nan, and finally the curry, all the vegan options were intentional, made with care, and extremely delicious.

I would highly recommend this restaurant to all Indian food lovers, especially those that are vegan, you will not be disappointed.

We will be...

I've got to be honest food was fantastic 100%... But here comes the but....the behaviour of the staff towards each other. Was definitely only 1 star. One of my group ordered a drink we ask were it was twice. Told her to cancel drink she then in front of me in a very rude way told the other staff member off. Then all I wanted to do was pay for my meal.the guy by the till started talking to another person that walked over. I had been standing there for some time. Waiting to pay So after waiting some more as the guy wasn't going to serve me I felt very ignored i asked the other staff if I could pay .she kept saying sorry. By this stage I just wanted to leave. And yes I've been in hospo for over 40 year but hey treat people with respect whether they are staff...
