Till next time 🙌🔥, jamesparker308, 2 years ago > Arjee Bhajee offers a vibrant twist on traditional Indian cuisine with bold flavors and creative dishes. The service is warm and welcoming, making the dining experience even more enjoyable. A must-visit for lovers of modern Indian fare in a cozy setting. Look for Chef Krishna he can customise as per your Taste buds, Lokesh Neelam, a year ago > I was really really pleased with the quality of the meals and the excellent service at this little side street restaurant on Riccarton Road. We began with bhajee, which was light, soft, and served as an excellent appetiser. The freshness was apparent, and the portion size was generous, comfortably enough for three people. The presentation was appealing and added to the overall positive impression. Next, the lamb seekh kebab was beautifully presented and extremely tender, pulling apart effortlessly. The flavours were enjoyable and the medium spice was perfect for a wee bit of a kick.
