Chicken tikka and the Aloo C Masala was good, the garlic naan and rice was flavorful but came out a bit later than the mains. I wish the mains included rice and bread but it's separate.

For very reasonable price (this is Canberra) the total sum - including sparking water, steamed rice and 4 pappadams was $29 - and I was more than full The meal was delicious and I was glad I had chosen the medium spice - will come again

On some dishes it is possible you may not find something comparable in either of those cities either... Reasons I give it a 5: Ramas has authentic spice and taste. I highly recommend any of the chef specialties, especially the Fijian pork and and the chicken. Spice-wise, when they tell you it is hot, they mean it! I appreciate that and for any North Americans missing flavor and spice, this is Their customer service is good, too. They responded quickly to a request for a different table, brought extra water, actually checked in, and once brought some complimentary bread. The owner is usually there and she periodically comes around and asks how everything is, which is nice. Things to know: It is BYO alcohol or there's a dank, sketchy shop next door where you can buy booze from a 4 year old and possibly. Good place for kids in the warm weather cause you can sit outside and let them run around a pedestrian courtyard (I recommend you let them bring scooters) Reasons I almost gave it a 4 instead of a 5: The dining room is a bit cramped, the palak paneer was weaker and less flavorful than I would like, and once in a blue moon the Fijian pork is overcooked making it taste tired, almost burned, but that is super rare and made up for she it IS en pointe. And the papandum is most probably store-bought and cooked ahead of time. That said, I will gladly overlook those things and the trip down from North Canberra for a trip to this wonderful spot, anytime.

This is all about good food…read more It is a restaurant which is street level in Canberra city within a large retail precinct. There is indoor and out door seating available; it is set up to be functional with little emphasis on the ambience. Dishes we enjoyed were: - pepper salted chilli calamari - honey king prawns - chicken w macadamia nuts and button mushrooms - shan tung lamb - english spinach w garlic sauce The chicken was a beautiful dish, lovely even taste and good flavours. Shan tung lamb is always good here too. Looking for a casual meal on the go, with some friends or passing through. This place serves consistent food which is well priced with efficient service.

Very large dim sum portions. The pork belly was interesting. The pork belly itself was really tender but soul not call it "teriyaki infused". More like "spicy barbecue infused".

Very basic decor and atmosphere with around 8 tables able to seat maybe 30 people tops. A basket of papadums was provided as we made our orders. They were light, crisp with had great bite of black pepper and surprisingly morish. We order a tandoori platter as a shared entree. Instead of the typical chicken breast found at so many Indian restaurants, there were four nicely flavoured pieces of chicken on the bone and a couple of seekh kebabs. The latter were well spiced and quite delicious. For mains we opted for a beef rang dang, chicken korma and dal mkahani with saffron rice and plain naan. My first impression was the dishes were a little on the small side but they turned out to be flavoursome and rich so we didn't feel underfed. We topped off the meal with gulaab jamun which is a dumpling soaked in cardamon syrup, and rasmalai which is paneer in a cardamon clotted cream. The restaurant is halal so all the milk based ingredients use soy. All very tasty and we felt we'd over indulged a bit by the end of the meal! Prices were a little high at $100 for three of us including a couple of mango lassis and soft drinks but we'll be back.
