I thought the rice and palak paneer were decent, although not great. I would go for a different entree if I were you. This place left me satisfied and I would recommend eating here if you're nearby, although it's a bit pricy. I wouldn't put it in my top 3 Indian places in Hamburg, but there's definitely tasty food.

I was super excited to try this place out, but it unfortunately didn't quite live up to all of the…read moreincredible photos that have been posted online. I do have to say that this place does look super cool inside. It has such a nice atmosphere that we chose to sit inside rather than out on a sunny day. So props for that! But for some reason, we didn't feel very welcome as we came in. It felt a bit like we were bothering the employees by being there. We ordered bowls and I was super excited for all of the ingredients that were listed in them, but there ended up being only a few items in the ones that they made for us. I'm guessing they didn't really feel like working on this particular day? But in the end, the food was pretty good and we both left full, so this place is alright. :)

I would love to be able to give my local curry house 5 stars but to be honest I was left feeling…read moresomewhat disappointed by my meal. Although the meal was tasty the portion was mainly made up of sauce with very little chicken. I subsequently ate the meal in a matter of minutes and was left wanting more. It was also a little pricey, given the size of the portion. I'll head back once again and hope for better second time around...maybe then I'll be in a position to give this potential gem of a place 5 stars as the staff are incredibly friendly and menu looks so inviting. Here's hoping :-)

Just because of the Indian connection, there was an instant liking to this place when I walked in the first time. The staff is extremely courteous and made food as per our request even though it was not in the menu. The taste of the food again was made for our Indian tongues and we kept going back to the same restaurant every few days! Food - 8/10 Ambiance - 9/10 Staff - 10/10 Value for money - 7/10 (Didn't matter much to me since I was on a business trip!) My suggestion for improvement: since I am from South India, I would love to see more South Indian dishes in the menu. Apart from that tiny rant, this restaurant is one of the best Indian restaurants in the neighbourhood and certainly worth a couple of visits for sure!

The Erythrean food reminded me of the Indian food, you can find a lot of vegetables with spices and rice. The vegetable kind of pancakes were the highlight. I was very pleased to find hummus as well.

Food are traditional Thai staples, all executed in high quality, and at decent value. Delicious! BTW when they say spicy, they don't mean Thailand-spicy, which is senible, but if that's what you are after, be sure to tell them. Good little selection of wines, too. As of June 2023, the set menus didn't seem to offer much additional value, you might be better off ordering a la carte as we did. Liked it a lot, deserves more traffic as probably the second Thai restaurant to be taken seriously in Hamburg, now.
