Great greeting when we walked in, got seated and had a chat with the waitress (who is bloody…read morebrilliant and wears amazing eyeliner on her eyes-great presentation). The restaurant is clean and well kept and just ace when you look at it! The chefs are rather silly (to put it nicely): we said "no onion, my partner is allergic" and they bring us food with heaps of onion. We say again "no onion he can't eat it" and the food comes out again with onion but cut small. We again say "it has onion but don't worry about it he will scrape the sauce off". The waitress asked so many times in the kitchen for NO ONION but the chefs ignored her request and so did the guy who kept answering the phone and walking to and from the kitchen.. Seriously, the chefs care that little about the safety of their diners!!!! My partner now has a rash and has to keep running to the bathroom very sick!! So thanks. Lucky for them the service of the waitresses was 10/10 amazing and the restaurant is gorgeous and beautiful! Just don't go here if you have allergies as they don't care in the kitchen!!! We definitely won't be back after that experience!!!

You may notice it can be quiet- but don't let that deter you- you will not be disappointed with the food! Another great quality of the food is that the dishes are not overly oily as some Indian can be at other restaurants. So you leave feeling good and not yuck. Love it and will continue to go!

Taste of India is a bummer. Sorry to have to say that, as this place has been in operation for a…read morevery long time by one family - something I enormously admire. But my experience here was sadly very disappointing on several levels. First, we placed our order on line which required a pre-payment (which my wife did). When I got to the restaurant at the time that online order indicated, they hadn't even started preparation yet, so I had to wait around for 30m or so. Then not having communicated with my wife on the payment, they asked me to pay, which I did, not realizing that it had been a prepay. Got the food home, order was complete, but the portions were really small. But the price was not! I wouldn't mind if I thought the food was killer good, but it just wasn't. I used to live in Delhi, and have eaten Indian food all over the world and TOI isn't too good. It's not bad, but not that special... and given the price... yikes. Then to add fuel to the fire, a month or so later, my wife happened to notice that we had paid twice for TOI (we hadn't talked about it of course when coming home with the food). Accidents happen, so no worries, right? She called the restaurant, spoke to the wife (owner), the same who had I had paid when I went to pick up the food. This woman gave her the total run around... denying it had happened, refused to give an email (and in fact denied they had one - really, in today's day and age no email?) and wanted my wife to come physically to the restaurant with the receipts to prove the double pay. What happened to the customer is always right? Now I know how TOI stays in business for so long - once in a while customers get double charged and give up fighting when the restaurant makes it such a hassle to get our money back. Never never going back here again and vigorously recommend my friends to likewise find somewhere else to go for Indian.

This place has been here for decades and I used to pop in when I lived in manly. Went back three…read moretimes over the last few months and loved it each time. The menu is quite extensive and they are quite accommodating when it comes to food restrictions etc. Love their onion bhaji which is proper Indian styled and crunchy and spicy and all things I love about this street food :-) The samosas are also good here. The mains were nice and punchy and had excellent flavour. The lamb madras is spicy and tangy albeit not a very authentic texture. The palak paneer here is great and some of the other dishes I have tried are also great. Prices are more on the expensive side here but the quality is great so I don't mind. Probably the best Indian takeaway I have had in the area.

Got in and ordered no problem, seating was slightly cramped…read more Entrees came out relatively quickly, (Chicken tikka) - they were dry, though. Mains took VERY long to reach us. Approx 40min, the waiter said they were busy, so I guess I'd wait and hope the curries would be amazing. Nope. Bhuna beef, Chicken Jhalfrezi and prawn chilli masala, 2 of which are the chef's specials, all the gravies tasted exactly the same. Jhalfrezi chicken was overcooked, the chicken was stringy/falling apart. Should be tender, not broken/stringy. I feel like the meat was just boiled and thrown into the sauce, no frying/braising. Finally, the rice. I ordered 3 portions of rice and we received what looked like enough for one. Do I assume that 3-4 mouthfuls of rice is one portion?

I'll need to come to Bijolias again to form a stronger opinion of it. I only stopped in for…read moretakeaway food once this week. We had some chicken dish (I forget which one, lots of cardamom), dahl, and pepper paneer. It was quite tasty, and seemed very...authentic. Like it was all homemade food. Very similar to the food I actually got served when I visited India. (Except for the beef vindaloo, but never mind). However it lacked a bit of spice. It was tasty, for sure, and I know this is subjective, but didn't have the spicy zip I like, and I expected from the dishes we ordered. But then when we had the leftovers the next day they were perfect. Tastier, spicier, better all around. I'm wondering if the sauces had just been made when we ordered the food (a Tuesday evening) and then they had time to mature the next day? Will have to try again some time. Eating in looked quite nice, white-linen dining.
