The menu has a good variety, though the dishes felt more comforting than standout. A solid option if you're nearby, but not necessarily a place you'd go out of your way for. Food: The curries had good flavor and spice levels, but were a little oil-heavy for my preference. Portions were fair, and the dishes came out fairly quickly. Some items stood out more than others, but overall the food was enjoyable without being particularly memorable. Service: Service was efficient despite the busy crowd. Staff were polite and managed the small space well, though at peak hours it can feel a bit rushed because of how packed the restaurant gets. Ambience: The restaurant has a traditional Indian theme with old Maharaja portraits and classic décor elements throughout. The space is on the smaller side, and the décor can feel a bit overcrowded, making it slightly cramped during busy times. Still, it has a lively atmosphere that fits the tourist-heavy Circular Quay area.

Upscale Indian dining at an overpriced cost and questionable ingredient pairing. The best thing we…read moreate was the basmati rice so it's saying a lot. We constantly were just trying to get through each dish ordered, hoping it'd improve but the taste, quality, and texture - something was always off. The meat also smelled funny. Besan Fritters were rubber in texture with balsamic type cream sauce. Pork Curry spice was extreme and the water could not come fast enough. This had dish the most weird meat smell. The Beef Dosa tasted more like a sunscreen quesadilla. Poorly described but that was the meal in a nutshell for us. Great aesthetic and staff was semi attentive - although a reservation, there was no one at the host stand for 5min+ nor no one seated in the front section of the restaurant so awkwardly stood until the bartender finally gave in to ask if we needed help. Overall, wouldn't recommend. Especially in group settings where food would be shared since the menu incorporates a lot of different flavors/textures into one dish - not all would be inclined.

There was plenty of space and I was given booth seating. I had a tough time choosing between Short Rib Korma and Aussie Lamb Chops. I finally went with the Short Rib Korma. I also ordered Onion Sesame Naan. The Short Rib Korma was made in a spiced coconut cashew curry, which was simply delightful. The Korma sauce was an aromatic blend of spices, bursting with bold flavor. Short Rib was quite tasty, though some pieces were a little bit tough. The Naan was light, thin, slightly crispy. There were pieces of sesame sprinkled on top, though I wished there was more onion taste. Service was decent. The waitress was attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. Overall, it was a lovely meal. I would give this spot another chance and would like to try the Aussie Lamb Chops, Charred Fish (whole snapper), Kashmiri Naan, and Rose Lassi.
