    As with most curry houses in Sydney, hot means medium. But unlike most others the curry is excellent. My recommendation is the prawn balchao or the chicken chetinad. Call ahead for special vege orders

    Lunch thali is really good! Not shown on the QR code menu, so you’d need to ask for it. More expensive than Kammadhenu, but similar in taste

    Decent indian food. I really enjoyed their mallagu prawns, very good flavours. Gulab jamoon in the desserts was just perfect with the ice cream, a must try.

    Fresh Indian food that won't feel heavy even after compulsively eating many naans - also best fish curry and palak paneer!

    Very friendly service at this cozy Darlinghurst Indian restaurant. Can't go past the Chicken Makhani with some Garlic naan.

    Incredible food, cheese naan is delicious and the chicken curry was very light and very flavoursome. Loved it.

    Really incredible Indian food! Best I’ve had in years... or ever?! Not the touristy place I guessed by the location.

    Definitely try the chicken Chettinad! But be sure they're serving the Malabar paratha on the day :)

    One of the best Curry houses in Sydney. Beware it is best to book on weekend night as it gets very busy. My favourite, Lamb Varutha.

    Don't order the goat, it's all bones & fatty pieces. Lots of work and no payoff! Order the Lamb curry (mild) it's great.

    All about the butter chicken and beef vindaloo! Ask for spicy if you want an extra kick.
