One of those Indian places we really wanted to try as it was non traditional modern cuisine. Service provided was amazing, staff were very informative and knew the menu well. I would recommend you skip the starters that are priced individually especially if you are in a large group. We did the tuna tartare which was marinated really well although wish they had provided some form of crisp to go with it even though they charge for papadums separately. We had all the tandoor dishes which was really good and well marinated except for the paneer which was dry. Again we ordered all the mains on the menu, good sharing size except for the market fish which was a thin fillet of barramundi. They all tasted individually different with various spices and we enjoyed all of it. We were celebrating a birthday and was shocked to find out they charge $10 per person cakeage no mention of this anywhere on their website. But they allowed us to blow out the candles and cutting of cake.
Delicious meal with creative Indian inspired flavours, friendly service and lovely ambience. We started off with some mocktails and paneer tikka which served with a nice pineapple relish, then we moved onto eggplant malabar curry with tempura enoki mushrooms, chargrilled asparagus, goat cheese tyrokafteri, nori podi, Salt and vinegar triple cooked potatoes, tamarind raita, shezwan crisp with a side of Black garlic naan and lemon rice. Finished off with the lovely Chocolate parfait, Bournvita crunch, caramelised tahini, milk sorbet and oat milk masala chai.
This place is amazing in terms of food, service and experience. They serve fusion Indian dishes and they are amazing. Some dishes are near authentic taste too. Service is simply great. Must try Pappadums with chutneys if you are missing spices. Nans were very delicious too. We had Duck and Lamb as mains and loved it so much.
