Spice level can be customized upon ordering, and the "Indian hot" level was perfect for those who like spicy, flavorful food. It's a casual spot, but the service was extremely friendly and really took care of the dine-in customers. It looks like they do a lot of takeaway (maybe delivery) too.

Good but thought would be better…read more I might have been spoiled eating from really good Indian restaurants back home in Kuwait that I found this restaurant overrated based on other customers recommendations. We ordered the butter chicken choosing our level of spiciness to be medium (which is a level 3 out of 5). The curry wasn't spicy at all, I would recommend choosing "hot" or even "very hot" if you want some spiciness in your food. Plus we tasted a bit of sweetness in our curry which was a surprise, it's not bad but still was a surprise given we were expecting it be spicy. The service was very fast which is good if you are hungry or in a hurry (we were both) Overall average restaurant

If you are someone who likes Indian cuisine but doesn't like the spice associated with it, this place is a great option! It was also priced relatively cheap for large portions. Finally, the man who handled our payment was very nice even though we needed some stuff adjusted. Now the not as good: the lady waiting us made little effort to attend to us (we shall give her the benefit of the doubt, however, because she said the restaurant was understaffed). The food also took a long time to come out. Lastly, we asked to change a mango lassi to a mango cocktail when ordering, but our waiter instead changed our mango chicken to a mango cocktail. Location is great with a park nearby overlooking Lake Rotorua and it sits on a street with many other restaurants. The restaurant has indoor and outdoor (covered) options.

We ordered the veg samosa, shahi paneer, lamb biryani, and garlic naan. The samosa were huge and very tasty (came with tamarind chutney). The shahi paneer was decent and we're pretty sure they make their own paneer based on the texture (huge plus in our opinion). The lamb biryani was a little spicy and amazing; the lamb was perfectly tender and so delicious. The garlic naan had good fluffiness and could used a little more garlic for our taste. The woman who took our order (I believe she is the owner) was wonderful, very friendly and helpful with ideas for exploring the area. We highly recommend trying this place out!
