    Amazing food. Tasted super high quality and came quickly. We were in and out super quick. Highly recommend the lamb tiki masala and the chicken curry. But the star of the show? The mango lassi. Oh my. The mango lassi. Wow. Also to note is the beautiful ambiance and lighting. The sky light is a great touch and I love the greenery mixed with the luxurious tables.

    Terrible service and food. Pushy waitress keeps trying to get you to order more. When I asked for the bill, they instead brought a QR code with a link to review them and stood watching for me to review them. Had to ask three times to pay before they finally allowed me to. Looking at other reviews, this is their common tactic and why they have so many reviews. Shady restaurant tried to get my review taken down by complaining I'm a "competitor".

    I was so happy to have Indian food, since I have been craving it for months now. I was super nervous because my husband is super picky and even he was a fan. The area seems a bit sketchy, but honestly once inside it's super nice. The staff was super welcoming and accommodating. They food was outta this world good! I would come back here over and over again if I'm in the area. Loved everything about it.

    We found this place really excellent food wise. So much so we went three nights in a row; twice for sit down Indian (about €45 a night for two including a quarter bottle of rosé wine and a pint of Heineken beer) and in once for a take - out chicken tandoori pizza at €12. The pizza was delicious too. I had the same Indian sit - in meal both times: matar paneer with Peshwari nan in a mega tasty sauce. The food was glorious. The paneer had chunks of cheese, slivers of fresh ginger, medium spiced, also green peas. The nans were the best we've had in years with generous sweet almond paste filling, small cashews, pistachio nuts and sultanas. Even writing about it I want another nan. My wife and I shared the nan and a perfectly boiled basmati rice - neither nan nor rice came included with the main. She had chicken tikka masala night one declaring it great. Night two she had lamb seekh kebab main with a tiny cold mint sauce. Again mega tasty, great quality, lamb mince mildly spiced, juicy and a good portion. It came on a smoking platter with lots of still cooking onions. The service was ace, the restaurant cosy despite being huge and the servers friendly. I assume they cooked the nan and the tandoori meats in the pizza oven. I noted as I left the oven was set at 275c. Serious heat. One thing I didn't like was what flowed when I checked in on Yelp as an offer popped up for a free shot for each main. They first tried to say it wasn't for their restaurant when it was and then despite a series of whispers among staff and the presumed owner not another word was said. No shot offered. It hadn't happened. I'm sure it wouldn't have broken the bank and it caused a bad taste. Had they offered a shot we likely would have declined but they should have honoured the deal. Left a bit of a bad taste. Still keeping it 5 star but yelpers beware if an offer appears.

It was not…read moredifficult to find and, in fact, perhaps easier to reach by foot than by car, since it was located in a nicely kept urban cul-de-sac. Parking looked like it might be at a bit of a premium. The storefront was in a walk-up, turn-of-the-century style facade with a warm and inviting appearance. The entry area was narrow with tables lining the walls for 3 or 4 meters, which then opened into a larger seating area with a decent capacity and a full bar overlooking the floor. The decor was conducive to a nice, relaxed ambiance. There also might have been another level to this establishment, but I did not explore that possibility. I was seated quickly and without any fuss in the narrow area of the restaurant, which was a little quieter than the main portion of the dining room. It was moderately busy and I found the less populated portion of the room to my liking. My waiter tended to me fairly quickly and did a good job during my entire visit. The menu tended toward Goan regional specialties, which was a nice twist. That is not something I often find and it is also ties the menu to their Portuguese location. I decided to try the Chicken Chacuti, a Portuguese influenced dish with coconut, ginger, garlic and other spices. I had never had this before, but it sounded quite intriguing. I opted to accompany it with rice and Peshwari Naan. This combination was wonderful as the sweetness of the bread offset the slightly spicy tone of the main dish. I was generally quite satisfied with my fare. I finished this with a decent Masala Chai. The total bill was €25.30, which included my main and the accompaniments, a glass of house red, a water and the tea. I thought this was reasonable considering the quality of the fare. This was roughly $28 USD with the exchange rate at the time. If you are in the area and fancy Indian fare, I would not hesitate to recommend this spot.

We started with paneer tikka and chicken tikka--both came in generous portions and were freshly made. The chutneys paired really well and added to the overall flavor. We also had a bottle of Piano red wine, which surprisingly worked quite nicely with the food. For the main course, everything was delicious. Standouts for us were the butter chicken, palak paneer, biryani, prawn curry, and garlic naan. The food tasted very fresh and well prepared, and you could tell care went into each dish. Service was fast despite the size of our group, which we really appreciated. Most importantly, everyone had a good time--especially the kids. Overall, a very enjoyable meal with great food and warm hospitality. Would definitely recommend for both small and large groups!

The chai was also quite good and in a really cute pot. One thing that could have made it better though is if the pot had better insulation, the tea got cold really quick.

For anyone the watches Old Looney Tunes Cartoons, this is what I was thinking when I ate my desert which consisted of carrots!!!

I was just pointing out the hilarity eating a carrot dessert that was warm and extremely tasty and for a desert probably healthy too. My brain just made the connection and i just started laughing. Anyway the food here is absolutely good and really a nice surprise considering how tired I was from traveling, carrying a backpack and a heavy carry on suitcase up all these stairs trying to get to my place of rest. Lisbon's got some hills which I will continue to refer to them as ball busters especially if you're running uphill. I stuffed my self with lamb Nan and a spicy lamb curry along with Lentil soup and a Masala Cha. This was on October 6, 2025 and I'm just posting this now because it was in my drafts. It was late when I got there but the waiter was very nice. Upon looking at the receipt, I can't see the discount I was supposed to get for mentioning my hostel recommended this restaurant. Oh well. I was tired and loopy. Not sure I remember which pictures are Rogan Josh and Gajar Halwa. I'm guessing one of them was the spicy lamb curry and one is the dessert?
