普佳印度餐廳 Pooja's Indian Restaurant — Restaurant in Kaohsiung

it was one of the worst dining experiences I’ve ever had. The taste of the food was extremely disappointing. We specifically requested Biriyani with Indian spicy flavors, but instead, the dish was excessively loaded with chili powder, overpowering any other flavors. It was not only unbearably spicy but also lacked the authentic taste and balance that one expects from a good Biriyani.

. After the initial unpleasant encounter with an excessively spicy Biriyani, we decided to give it another chance and ordered a new Biriyani with less spice. Unfortunately, the second dish turned out to be burnt and had a strong, unpleasant smell.

The burnt Biriyani not only ruined the taste but also indicated a lack of attention to detail and proper cooking techniques in the kitchen. The unpleasant smell further added to the disappointment and made the dish practically inedible.

I decided to try their Kheer. Unfortunately, the Kheer was a major letdown. It had an overly liquid consistency and lacked the desirable creamy texture that is characteristic of this traditional Indian dessert. Moreover, the flavor was far from pleasant, leaving a bad taste in my mouth.

When I brought up my concerns to the staff and mentioned the unsatisfactory taste and texture, I was informed that they had run out of a key ingredient. However, instead of informing us beforehand or offering alternatives, they served a subpar version of the dish that tasted as if the missing ingredient had been simply omitted.

To add to the disappointment, the staff did not offer any resolution or attempt to rectify the situation

It’s disheartening to have such experiences, especially when visiting a restaurant with the hope of enjoying authentic cuisine. I sincerely hope that the restaurant takes customer feedback seriously and improves their food quality, communication, and customer service to ensure a more pleasant dining experience for...

Please do not go to this restaurant to try Indian authentic food, instead go to any other Indian restaurant nearby.

The worst Indian food ever had. No flavor in any dish we ordered. Kheer (Indian Desert) was like forgotten to cook instead just kept milk with smashed rice in a bowl without sweet. Not sure why would someone cook this bad and name it Indian dish or Keep an Indian restaurant and lead foreigners to taste bad dishes and give bad assumptions of how Indian dishes taste. When we addressed the Kheer issue to the owner he explained, cardamom was out of stock so that flavor is the missing or else it is good, I am living in Taiwan for over 5 years don’t I know how Taiwan Indian restaurants cook Indian food? Or am I not from an...

Every single dish is absolutely tasty but not pricy.

Fish and lamb curry are quite unique, and Pooja just knows the magic to bring the best out of the ingredients while integrating curry and all spices.

The vegetable curry is heartwarming to eat. The sweetness of vegetables is vivid and perfectly harmonic with the curry spices.😇

I also recommend Basmati and all sorts of breads. I have been a fan of this diner for more than three years, even after leaving Kaohsiung i still remember this place has one of the best Indian flavors among so many restaurants out there.

If you want to know whether a restaurant is good or not, just try the simplest food in it. Pooja’s plain naan will not let you down. It’s crisp and nice chewy texture...
