Watered down sauces with insufficient solid food pieces. Overpriced for what it is. "Välkommen till Indiska Köket, en modern alkoholfri restaurang med traditionsenliga, indiska maträtter." Långt ifrån traditionell! As other knowledgeable chefs and people of Indian background have written in the reviews - an absolutely shame of a dinner time take away on our recent trip through Jonkoping. (we ordered Seven dishes, so its not judged on just one random dish.) The staff may be friendly but the quality of the food is the opposite. Many dishes are not even Authentic nor Traditional as advertised, but just a fusion. (Ever heard of prawns being a traditional ingredient in the North Indian desert region? Thats not really appropriate in a Mughlai sauce). Super mild north Indian sauce from the desert with six normal prawns makes not a traditional Indian dish. If you use the picture of the Taj Mahal as your signature, at least have some proper Punjabi dishes?! Prawns in Daal? Really?! Most Indians do not eat beef. But you have misleadingly fusioned beef into Hindu dishes? You have South Indian/Coastal sauces listed but no South Indian traditional fish added? Beef in - Sauces created by Indian ancestors for fish? Overall its just Chicken, Beef, Mutton or Prawns thrown into the basic sauce combo. I do not like to write negative reviews but this one deserves it. Shame. Restaurant - please buy your sauces from Coop and your food will taste...
Read moreI hate to give bad reviews, but this restaurant is one of the worse Indian food serving restaurants I’ve ever visited in Sweden. Having said that there are some positives too. I had lunch buffe & my experience is based on that.
Positives:- In a good location with parking spaces nearby. Good ambience and clean bathrooms. Salads counter contains good variety & salads are very tasty, something you don’t see in many Indian restaurants.
Negatives:- All dishes taste same as they all contains same sauce (base gravy) which is the orange gravy used for butter chicken. If you use same sauce of chicken tikka masala, it can’t be called as beef madras. The chicken in chicken tikka masala was too overcooked. Grilled tandoori felt like it’s boiled, instead of grilled & they put in some forms of sauce making the chicken too oily, and wet. -Basmati rice felt too sticky & the naan felt like a tortilla. Naan is suppose to be soft and fluffy.
The sad part is they have all the things that they need in this restaurant & they use quality ingredients (the rice feels expensive, salads felt fresh, the quality of meat was good) but it’s a matter of doing it well, cooking it well.
Hope you will improve & I’ll be travelling again through Jönkoping & will update the review if...
Read moreVery poor restaurant, we had been there ordered chicken tikka masala and beef vindaloo, and a peswari naan, Food review: from tge point of af a chef myself, don't put catchup in vindaloo sauce, meat could be more tender and should have more spices in the vindaloo, chicken tikka was just a bland, no particular taste other than both were something sweet stuffs. Peswari naan was done on pan, when asked about it, the guy from counter said of course they have tandoori oven but they didn't use it for naan! Hello! What do u use it for? Not even chicken Tikka was made in tandoori! Service: the service was absolutely horrible considering dinner, i had to go up and look for additional order, seemed they were ran out of rice! The restaurant was empty though when we got in. There were no follow ups over food tastes and something else, as i am working in FnB sector, to me it doesnt worth even a star review.
As a bangladeshi, i know exactly how these food tastes and to be honest, i didnt expect a wow experience but something decent but was nothing close to my...
