Kammadhenu is a casual dining spot in Australia serving Sri Lankan cuisine alongside Indian and Malaysian dishes. While some customers may find the food to be of low quality, with curries that are not freshly made and a lack of attention to Indian patrons, others rave about the cheap prices and generous serving sizes. The Thali dish is a standout, served hot and satisfying. Despite some mixed reviews on service speed, the staff are described as friendly and unassuming. Overall, Kammadhenu stands out as a great option for those looking to enjoy affordable, spicy, and tasty Sri Lankan cuisine in Newtown.
Pros: - Cheap food and generous serving sizes relative to what one would expect in Newtown - Thali dish was served hot. Cons: - My friend and I ordered our dishes separately, yet all of my dishes came out 15 minutes before one of hers even came out (My dishes all came out in about 15 minutes). We had to remind the staff, and the chana bhatura and pappadums came out 10 minutes after. - The pappadums are served in bowls covered in foil. These bowls look very dirty, and since they are covered in foil, one can assume these bowls aren't actually going to be washed every time it's been used. Meaning that people who are served these pappadum bowls may touch the bowls, and the staff would re-use them to serve pappadums to others. Not very appetising when that thought is lingering in our heads while eating. Also I was thinking that the foil is there to keep the pappadums nice and hot when they come out fresh. But since we ordered the dish about 30 minutes... read more
I recently moved to Sydney and since my arrival have been looking for a good Sri Lankan restaurant within close proximity to the city. A colleague recommended Kammadhenu and I was pleasantly surprised! The kotthu roti was great - I went with the lamb option. The pan rolls had a great filling but seemed like they had been refried and the batter wasn't the same as a typical pan roll. Nevertheless the price you pay for the great taste is totally worth it. Can't wait to go back and try the hoppers!!
After a heavy night out I was desperately craving some western creamy Indian curry. I had walked all along King street and this place stood out with the dark purple decor. I was not in the right frame of mind to be spending more than 20 minutes deciding what I want (cause I usually do) so I played it safe and went with a mild butter chicken + jasmine rice and a garlic nan bread. I love how the curry is presented in the old copper Bowles but I do think serving food for one person on three different plates is a bit much (just a suggestion on saving dishes and water?) The curry was creamy and chicken was soft and had been cooked perfectly, I did ask for mild but it was a bit too mild that I couldn't taste any heat. The ban bread was thin and light which I liked as it wasn't drenched in flower. The only let down was the mass amounts of garlic is was smothered in - I love garlic a lot but not the point where I'm chewing chunks of it.
This is the best Indian food I have ever had! My family and I first visited in 2012, and I have been dreaming of their dosais ever since. I was thrilled to see that they are still open.
I went to this restaurant for dinner with a small group and the atmosphere was great. It was very busy, so we had to wait for our food for about an hour, with other customers around us. However...
