This place is so underrated. We had lunch here and it was beautiful tasting, nicely presented and completely affordable. I would highly recommend checking them out for lunch you won't be disappointed. Much better bang for buck than most cafes.
fingles M, 3 months agoChicken Biryani was one of the worst I've ever eaten. Absolutely no flavour at all. The chicken Naan had thick layer of Naan bread and hardly any chicken, Onions were more than chicken. Raita especially was sweet as hell. Extremely disappointed
vipul venkat, 5 months agoBest Indian I've tried in Christchurch! Naan Breads are amazingly fresh and delicious. Lots of specialty curries alongside the regular favorites which were great. Good wine list. Lovely decoration inside too.
