Claypot chicken was delicious! Probably the best I’ve had in melbourne. Butter chicken lacked flavour and it’s curry tasted like tomato sauce with too much sugar. Palak paneer and Naan were both very good. We asked them to make our naans crispy and they were perfect! Great little place, they just need to do something about their butter chicken recipe as I noticed other reviews also complaining about the lack of flavour in butter chicken.

I like that they ask you what heat you want out of ten, we said a 7 and it was bang on.

Both curries we got were full of flavour, two curries a naan and a small rice is enough for most in terms of size, and it’s absolutely delicious with great service.

There were 4 of us and each ordered a different menu item. All the dishes were tasty and yes, I would come back again for another taste of their eclectic menu. Reservations are a must as the place is small with beautiful ambience further enhanced by the graciousness of the warm conversations had with the owners!
