We watched the naan being made by hand at the takeaway, and breathed in the tantalizing spices of the Indian food. Then we feasted at their buffet around the corner. The flavors and freshness of the buffet were exciting, especially as we arrived at 6:25pm right before they opened and were among the first customers. It filed up quickly. $20 NZ dollars for all you can eat is a great deal for food of this quality. Drinks not included. CASH ONLY or debit card. Some of my favs were the Jaipuri Aalo, a delicious mix of veggies w tasty sauce, the chicken kofta briyani, with the most delightful combo of spices that I've ever had in a briyani dish, the lamb, and the Dahl. Wow, there is no Indian buffet of this quality back home. If I lived here, I'd eat at Paradise frequently. Oh the spices.. heavenly sigh. Paradise is in an interesting neighborhood with many other Indian eateries.

Efficient telephone ordering from their online menu and an accurate prediction of how long the food would take to cook before we zoomed around for a pickup meant I was already happy with the experience before I could smell it. Fortunately the aroma wafting through the door was satisfying, the food looked great, and tasted fantastic. The lamb in my Akbari Gosht was tender and the sauce was thick and creamy and nuttier than Sherman Klump. I have to say I am not a fan of their Papadum's, but considering they were thrown in for free I am not in a position to complain!

This Indian restaurant produces some of the best Indian dishes I've tried in a long time. It is so far removed from the bland dishes offered at an average food-court, here you can taste every spice and ingredient. Located just as you enter Kumue from the South, the only negative was the long waiting time for the dishes, but the wait was well worth the time. I ordered the butter chicken, and the portions are more than generous, and the garlic naan, absolutely mmmmmmmmmmmm. Staff were friendly and informative, and they will gladly offer advice on what to order. But from my experience, anything on the menu will do just fine.

You know those days when you don't feel like eating rice or potatos or sadza (traditional food) and you just want something different to have with your stew? Well that's how I feel from time to time and I find myself calling Chapati for take away naan bread. It is so fresh and delicious, it tastes like it's come out of the oven rather than out of a sealed supermarket bag! This is a surprising for a place that is next to a dairy and a seedy looking motel. I guess looks/location aren't really a factor when you are serving up deliciousness.

Perhaps I'm just used to my wife's Mediterranean Lamb Koftas, but Chapati's were like lumps and concrete and tasteless. The sauce was nice, but the meatballs were a joke. Very disappointing. When we went to pick up the food, there was no PayWave - come on, get with it! I don't have a PIN on my Visa. I asked the young guy behind the counter to run it w/o the PIN and I'd sign. He refused - not sure if he couldn't or just wouldn't. Even pressing enter (as per the instructions on the machine) didn't work. I tried my American Visa debit card (which has a PIN) and it failed. Won't be returning. I would guess management must have changed which is why it's gone downhill.

I'm sorry to say that it missed the mark on several points, and thus this 2 star review. Service was EXCEEDINGLY slow. The main server, who apparently is the only one that can take orders throughout the entire restaurant was frequently busy (as a result of her order taking position), and thus we had to wait on several occasions to get service. In fact, I had to get up and request her presence on a few instances, and I even removed dishes from the table, as no one came by to clear the table. Food was average. And yes, it was certainly NOT spicy....even the "hot" dishes that they claimed. I regularly frequent Indian restaurants, and while the vindaloo ($19) was flavorful, it lacked any heat that one expects. The yellow Dahl ($13/bowl) was very soupy, though had a decent flavor, but as a result of its consistency, was difficult to scoop up with the naan. The garlic naan was barely flavorful, and we ordered both plain and "garlic", and the plain was like eating unsalted white toast. Corkage fee of $5/bottle, and two desserts, brought the total up to $194 (for 6 adults).

Although we were seated at a quiet table near the window, the enthusiastic crowd upstairs signaled this place was good enough to bring the party to. Our meal started with Onion bahji and curry sauce. I equate this to onion rings without coming full circle. We dined on this for quite a while, as we waited on our entree. It was a good 20 minutes before our food arrived. Possibly delayed because of the large party upstairs. Perhaps they had not prepared in advance? I ordered the Lamb Vidaloo traditional spicy, Raita and Saffron Rice. The vindaloo was superb. A thick, creamy, spicy sauce with tender seasoned lamb. The rice was aromatic, lightly fluffed and cooked to perfection. The raita.. Oohhhh the raita. Not good at all. It was sweet! Another raita with extra fixings involved. This one had chopped onion, along with some sweet flavor I couldn't quite place. When I asked our server if it was a specific type of raita, he said it was the house special traditional. Mmm okay, suppose I'll keep searching for the house special flavor I am used to; just yogurt and cucumber thanks. The naan bread was also a bit subpar - not the baked semi-crunchy naan most places serve. Put it this way it was soggy without even dipping it in the vindaloo or raita. There are specials for each night of the week here. On this occasion, the Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday night special includes a curry, rice and naan for $12.99. I may pass on the naan and raita, but I thoroughly enjoyed the vindaloo.

The food is very authentic and has that real homemade taste, not like some other nasty Indian takeaways. Their food is just wonderful, I haven't tried everything yet, but I eventually will. But we have tried the Butter chicken (as you do), Lamb Korma, Paneer Saagwala, Chicken Biryaani, Tikka Masala, Vegetable Jalfrezy and most of the naans, I have to say every single one of these dishes is just as tasty as the next. The only thing they don't do and I wish they did is the Whole Tandoori Chicken. I had a bunch of friends over one night and we ordered about 8 dishes and everyone was raving about it, and there was nothing left, every last morsel had been eaten !! Either they were hungry or the food was just so great. This Indian also does not give me a sore stomach like some others that I have tried.
