We ordered inside and waited only 10 or so minutes for the order. With COVID there is no inside seating, so we took it away with us. But they must get many call in orders as the owner ran out to a car at the curb to deliver a bag. We ordered 2 different samplers-the meat grill and the starter sampler. It was superb!! The meat samosa and the veggie samosa were yummy. The tandoori meats were brilliantly seasoned. The sausage was so good and I don't even know what it was. You have to give them a try. The prices are super reasonable, and they feature some lunch specials that sound perfect for an afternoon.

Compared to some of the spots we have here in NJ/NY this place wouldn't even hold up in terms of portions and price. So with that disclaimer I'd like to say this cafe is cute and nice spot along the quay with enough street parking spots. In terms of taste the sambar isn't so fresh but their coconut chutney was amazing!!! The dosa wasn't as crispy or as large as I'd like but i guess not bad. Their samosa chat was very yummy - would certainly recommend that! Overall if you're vegetarian craving a hot meal or just someone looking to try new cuisines this spot is certainly for you.

I highly recommend the lemonade - with salt or a mango lassie if you need the dairy. You have to try a couple of the dishes from the menu - a mix is the only way to go. It's perfect for a meal where everyone is at different hunger levels. There's a dish that suits everyone. One of the best places to eat well in Cork. Hands down.

My family and I visited this elegant Indian restaurant in the heart of Cork city over the Christmas break. For starters, we ordered an Assorted Indian snacks. This was scrumptious to say the least. In the mains, we got a Chicken Biryani, two Bombay Aloo's, a garlic naan, and a cheese & onion naan. Since my partner and I are vegetarian, we chose the Bombay Aloo. This was one of several vegetarian options they had on their menu. We quite liked that they had vegan options as well. The food and service were impeccable. Being of an Indian background, I must say that the quality of their food and the balance of their spices was quite remarkable.

The inside of the restaurant is very traditional and has a very warm feeling all because of the very friendly and efficient staff. The menu choice is extensive (see images of menu) I have to admit I struggled to make a decision. In the end I opted for the Badami Chicken which was Chicken cooked in almond, cashew cream sauce & flavoured with Kashmiri herbs! This was to die for a fab size portion and chicken was cooked extremely well. As there were three of us dining who are coeliac it was great to hear that the majority of the menu was naturally gluten free also. Top marks will definitely be back again on our next visit home.

The food was served haphazardly. The guy who served us spilt the papdom sauces all over the table and mixed up all the orders by placing the wrong dishes before each and every one of us. There was gum sticking to the side of the tables. The food was average.The plates were unclean with a film of oil on them. Had to get them changed before starting to eat. The washrooms are a mess. I wonder do they even clean it. I can assure you will spend more time at the hospital once you have visited this place. The owner is a joke he comes around smiling asking about your food and the service when all he does is serve a serve substandard food on the plate.My overall experience of this place is absolutely horrendous. Will never recommend visiting. Also the staff seem overworked I don't know whether the owner is meeting work place standards. Hope immigration authorities raid this place to check whether he is employing people with the right to work in the Republic.
