A good one. We tried Roshogolla (Rasgulla), Kalojam (Gulabjamun), Dahi-puri (Doi Fuchka) and Chole Bhaturey. We loved the tastes of all the foods. It's very authentic. The sweet items will give you the real (almost) taste of Indian cuisine. It's not full of Kewra & Rose water which is nice. The Dahi-puri was served nicely with 4/5 different sides, full of variations of flavors.The management is a bit down, not attentive to the customers. Serving was a bit unprofessional. Our dishes were served without any napkin/tissue papers. Toilets were not cleaned.The food price is reasonable. A good place to try without spending a lot of money.The location is good, in the middle of the central city of Christchurch. Therefore you may find it a bit tricky to find a convenient place to park your vehicle. Road side parking is not very expensive, $2.00 an hour.Overall experience is good, not bad. We will visit again as we are big fans of Indian sweets. Thank you :)

You can almost disregard the stars. I'll try describe my latest experience: a cool cloudy otautahi winter outside. 12pm. Enter the dim atmosphere that's a mix of industrial (brick themed wall, iron caged hanging lamps) and regal (gold floral wall, overall gold tone thanks to excellent lighting) to a warm indian backing track. Greeted with a smile, welcome, shown a seat. I start with the Indian chai. Well spiced and creamy.The menu is solely vegetarian which might lose a few people. In my opinion, although meat is delicious in Indian cuisine, people appreciate the range of flavours and stretchy soft naan. The meat texture is replaced by grilled cheese, mushroom, cauliflower, capsicum and I think almost match the desired effect of meat. Just not quite.I had the paneer tikka masala (medium heat), with plain naan. Fresh flavours and rich sauce with a perfect (no exaggeration) consistency.This place is very well known for its samosa around here with a delicious bbq type sauce to dip into. They do not skint on amount of sauce.5/5 delicious and warm atmos. Relaxed but effective service

A welcome find on cold wet public holiday. Excellent service and really good food. We we were too full to try the sweets but they look great. …. next time. Lots of seating. Casual dining. Easy to find with lots of parking around the area.

Went on a HOT busy lunch period, the restaurant was a nice temperature inside, the food come out quick considering how busy it was, my partner had the Indo Chinese Veg stir-fry and loved it, it's simple but well-cooked and presented nicely. I had the South Indian platter, it was a great experience, very authentic feeling about the whole thing, this savory doughnut that you tip in sauces, and what I think was some kind of coconut bread that you dip into all the different sauces, was also nice and quite different, the Dosa was amazing , very striking flavor's that you don't get from you run of the mill Indian restaurant, We also had ours vegan with no trouble, a lot of choice for Vegans!

The food is absolutely delicious! Ordered papdi chaat and gobi manchurian for starter and palak paneer and butter paneer for main. All the food was so tasty and came out fairly quickly. The staff are welcoming and friendly. The atmosphere is good too with nice punjab music :)

Love coming to this place for a real authentic taste of indian street food and sweets. The service is always quick and courteous. Our server, a young smilng girl, was outstanding. We loved everything we tried. The tea was flavorsome, hot and milky. Samosas, bread pakoras and chana masala eere all outstanding. The textures and the spice level in all the dishes were just perfect. The chutneys complimented the dishes well too. Strongly recommended if you want a flavorsome treat in a casual atmosphere.

Very bad experience PATHETIC SERVICE been third time now last time we ordered 2 thali the girl at the counter didn’t printed the order she printed when we went to pick up after half an hour and made us wait really long we took our money and went off what a waste of time before that also messed up our order and today as well we went to pick samosa chaat and dahi bhalla dahi bhalla was good but overpriced we waited almost 25 to 30 because of that even got late to work like seriously will never visit again and do not recommend to anyone and when we asked back money to the girl at the counter she was not ready to give us the money back just saying 2 mins 2 mins again and again like seriously it was not even busy during 12 horrible service keep up guys. Have been through reviews no one even have time to reply to the reviews really sad.

Went there during a week day in the evening. Just few people were there. Everything was fast. Coming to the important part, the food. It's the second Indian restaurant I went to in Christchurch. And it was better than expected. Exact taste from India and not kiwi oriented. Will be going in again. More update to follow.
