Ahh this place was really really good.. all the food we had was absolutely lush, and the staff were really friendly and polite and welcoming.. honestly couldn't fault the place.. they had a great menu with a good range to choose from and they had good vegetarian options as well.. we ordered two starts and two curries, some naans and some dips and every single thing was delightful and the flavours complimented each other perfectly.. I guess the only negative thing I could say is the poppadoms weren't the best, they were quite salty and quite thick, but they were still nice (but we're from the UK so not sure if they're just different in the UK than they are in NZ)

Just had a fabulous dinner experience here! My partner and I decided on Indian for our meal and after reading reviews, we decided to give here a go and oh my, did we choose well. The waitstaff were superb and delivered excellent service without being overbearing. Everything arrived in a timely manner. My partner couldn't decide what he wanted and our server said leave it to him and he was sooo impressed with the dish. It was the chef Balti special. I went classic with tikka masala and we both ordered enough garlic naan to sink a small ship. Food was incredible and we can't recommend this place enough. Support local and support these guys :)

We were in Taupo for a day trip and wanted to get some Indian food because it was Diwali. Heard raving reviews about Master of India, so decided to give it a try. We have to say that the food, atmosphere and service were all exceptional! Their curries were delicious, and the Biriyani was amazing. My friend who was there said he would gladly make the drive from Auckland just to eat here again. Their housemade chilli sauce and Kulfi were fantastic! It was not on the menu, but we asked if they could make us a samosa chaat, and they gladly made one for us! I'd recommend anyone who is in the area to visit!

best indian we've had so far in taupo and have been to a number of places. super fast for takeaway even though they were busy and beautiful authentic butter chicken and tikka masala, and did half-servings at request. the loadedness (if that's a word) of the garlic cheese naans is worth mentioning too, delicious. also traveled well, kept nice n hot for the 30min drive back to our airbnb. also this is the only time ever I've enjoyed the complimentary free poppadums, usually plain and boring and unnecessary but these had a lovely cumin seed salty flavor. top stuff.

What a place. The moment I saw the friendly staff member go out of his way to hold the door open for us as we left the establishment with our meal, I knew we were in for quite the treat. Meal was excellent and spurred some wonderful discussion. Extremely reasonably priced and made our Taupō stay that much more fabulous. The decor was to die-for. Pictured is the phone by the counter. Symbolises the great communication from the staff. The walls are lined with beautiful, ornate decorations that really transport you to the streets of Varanasi.

As someone who usually does not write reviews, I did not expect to have any authentic Indian food in Taupo, New Zealand. But after a miserable boat ride, I really need something to warm me up and I looked at the review and thought of giving it a go. Oh wow oh wow...the level of Indian food here is sooooo much better than that Australia and can compare to those in the U.K. , which makes the best Indian food outside India. As a huge Indian food fan, I can guarantee you this is good and authentic! Take my word for it.
