Average. Do no order the fruit platter for dessert. Very average, considering we are in the middle of summer with an abundance of beautiful fruits, all we got was sliced apple, pear and chopped up orange. Very disappointing.

Service is top notch but food is horrible and not even close to Indian cuisine, this was the first time we have been there but disappointed wont be returning, would recommend for the excellent service they have but not for the food taste, Entree were equally bad apart from the chicken. I understand this being a western country you guys have to adapt to the same, but this is not what Indian food can taste even after some adaptations.

Had an slightly racist experience at this restaurant. I ordered my food for pickup from uber eats and when I reached restaurant to pickup my food woman at the reception tells me she can't give me my food without the uber eats bag (assuming me being a brown guy was a delivery driver).I had to explain it to her that it was my order.Very disrespectful behaviour hope they teach their staff how to deal with people irrespective of their colour.

Very bad experience, what a waste of time and money it was. Ordered butter chicken for our child as it is his favourite meal and he refused to eat and said it even doesnt taste like butter chicken and taste more like pizza sauce and ordered another medium curry and came up mild again with blend flavour of Madras curry. Entre ordered was good, good service, clean but curries in main course were not expected. Went to Punjab restaurant to check out food but what a waste of time and wont be going back again.

Madras prawns were really good however the two butter chicken we received were abysmal. Each dish would have only had one thighs' worth of chicken and was mainly just full of sauce. Both dishes for a total of $50. Won't be going back

Staff were amazing, polite, very well presented, very professional with all interactions with our table from filling the water right through to us asking for two spoons they arrived on their own little plate not just dumped on the table as they walked past, I/we felt really looked after. The really tall girl helped us she was awesome however all staff impressed us. We will return......
