We are always looking for a good, authentic Indian curry whilst abroad but are often disappointed. After checking some of the reviews for the restaurants in this area we decided on this one.
We didn't sit in as we wanted to get relaxed back at the accommodation but we would have as it was very nice and completely spotless. The staff were all very friendly and polite and our food was ready within 15mins. We chose the butter chicken, chicken shakti, garlic naan and pilau rice (€23.50). We were asked how hot or not we would like both dishes which was a nice touch as we like to have a hot one and a medium one then share :) Both dishes were very distinct from each other with very deep flavours and perfectly marinated/cooked chicken that just fell apart in the mouth.
All in all an excellent choice which finished off our nice relaxing day. We are only here for a cheeky week before Christmas but will definitely making a return visit before...
Read moreWhile staying in Alporchinhos recently, we ate here on 3 occasions. We tried several different starters and main dishes and every one of them was just delicious. Not only does the food taste great but it's beautifully presented too. We were especially impressed with the gorgeous Indian cutlery and serving dishes. The service is warm and friendly and it feels as if a lot of thought and attention to detail has gone into the decoration of both the interior and the outside space as both are very comfortable and attractive. We both adore Indian food and this has to be one of the best Indian restaurants we have ever eaten at as the flavours of the fresh spices really shine through. We're looking forward to a return visit to this area soon so we can sample some more dishes from the extensive menu at this...
Read moreThe restaurant looks very attractive from the road side and the tables were well presented. The staff member serving was very pleasant and spoke perfect English. the environment was quite pleasant. There ends the good part: the food was very unimaginative and poorly cooked. For example I had a Chicken Chat for starters, the chicken was fine and nicely cut into small segments but the sauce in which the meat should have been cooked was a cold mixture of tomatoes and other vegetables and no attempt to marinade the chicken had been made Similar problems occurred with the other dishes. A very disappointing experience. The restaurant would not last very long in UK. Please train your chefs in a successful Indian restaurant before you disappoint too...
