Butter Chicken

Tender chicken in a rich, creamy tomato-based sauce with aromatic spices. Our most popular dish, and for good reason.

We went out for dinner as a family and we absolutely loved it! The staff were so lovely. The food was out of this world good, easily the best curry I've ever had. The Lasooni Palak Paneer - highly recommend.

Best Indian food I've had in NZ. Went with a party of 6 and we're still talking about it 4 days later. Outstanding service and divine food - don't go past the garlic prawns.

Fabulous food, fresh and well presented. Some of the best Indian food we have had in 18 years here. Being European we seek excellence and this definitely has it.

Food was delicious, packed with authentic flavour and fresh ingredients. Service was quick and friendly. We were the last table so could tell they wanted to close up, but didn't feel rushed out the door.
