"Absolutely superb! Packed with full flavour—the Butter Chicken and 555 Style Starters were highlights, and the Daal Tadka and fluffy Saffron Rice were cooked to perfection. Hands down one of the best meals I've ordered recently. So good I'm going straight to Google to leave a review there, too!"
"Multiple Hidden bones in the goat masala. Wouldn't get this again.
Taste and packaging was fine, but would not recommend, maybe if only the single bone, not multiple.
Cheesy garlic naan bland.
Chicken biryani was the best, good flavour and portion, the only thing I would order again."

They take it on board and deliver a delicious dish. Even though I feel bad destroying their original, absolutely delicious recipe 😂, I really appreciate how much they care about customer preferences!"
"What an awesome place! Very good value for money and arrived quickly. The Chicken Momos were delicious. We loved the sauce that came with them.
The only thing I would nitpick is that the noodles (Chicken Keema Noodles) were a bit too overcooked, would be nice if they had some chew to them. They were spicy and flavourful. Thank you for such a lovely meal! We will be ordering again :)"

"ఇక్కడ దొరికే వడలు నాకు తెలిసి ప్రపంచంలోనే ఎంతో రుచికరమైన వడలు. పైన కరకరలాడుతూ లోపలా మెత్తగా ఉంటూ మామూలుగా ఒకటి రెండు వడలు తినే వాళ్ళు కూడా ఇలాంటి వడలైతే పది పదిహేను తిన్న ఆశ్చర్యపోనవసరం లేదు అంత బాగుంటాయి."
"Very inconsistent and the ratio between the masala and rice is not balanced. Too much of masala for too little rice. Initially they did well but looks like they are lacking quality and consistency. That's sad, we really loved this place and have to reduce ordering from here and this is not the first time it has been so off"

"New favourite restaurant! Everything is super tasty and very well priced. We have ordered three times in the last few weeks. Each time something different and each time just as good. Still so many more things to try. Highly recommended!!"
"Veg Noodles were made al dente. It had good proportion of vegetables. Touch on th oilier side. Conservative on salt and seasoning, maybe to appeal to wider audience. Had a decent umami flavour. No noticeable wok hei. Quantity was average. No unsavoury notes in the taste. Nothing to write home about, but overall pleasant."

"1. Butter Chicken was super creamy and flavourful, with big pieces of chicken and a very generous portion. 2. Naan was also great, very clearly fresh. Super impressed with this place and probably will be ordering again, especially as it's one of the more affordable options nearby."
"2. Lamb Korma super tough. 1. Butter Chicken had about 6 small chunks of chicken, but worst of all the 8. Cucumber Salad described as "Fresh cucumber, capsicums, and onions, typically seasoned with lemon juice, vinegar, salt, and pepper" had LITERALLY no capsicums, onions, lemon juice, vinegar, salt or pepper. Instead, about 8 slices of cucumber on a bed of mixed leaf with a tiny slice of lemon and orange. For $6.50. Jokers. Absolutely not coming back here."

"Only indian food i have liked that i tried. The Lamb Rogan Josh was flavourful with no bones. The portions were great, however i'm not a fan of the nuts in the mango lassi but it was better than other that i have had. I will definitely keep ordering from here especially if they keep giving bread and Basmati Rice"
"I have ordered from here on many occasions and have always ordered a larger size. The portion. This time was a lot smaller than normal with a lot more liquid and less meat. The meat itself was also not as tender as it usually is which was disappointing. The Roddys were both very inconsistent. One seemed to be nice and fresh and the other was quite chewy. Overall I'm disappointed this time."
