We were hoping for an Ethiopian meal but were very happy with our choice from a small curry menu. Food was very tasty and well cooked. Choice of wine- house red or white. Reasonable quality. Service was very friendly and we had an amazing conversation with the very well travelled chef! A very pleasant evening.
I have visited this restaurant 2 or 3 times. If you have a large group, forget it, as they struggle to handle large parties and you need to pre-order naan bread or poppadoms or they might run out. The curry is decent and the portions are generous. However, I probably wouldn't return due to the average service and the fact that there are better takeaway options with tastier curries available. Alternatively, you could always try cooking your own curry at home.
I was introduced to this restaurant when I moved to Mount Isa and it has very quickly become my favourite!!!! The food is amazing the Ethiopian curries in their authenticity, to the Western food is brilliant! The service is provided by people who care and are some of the loveliest people I have ever met! My partner and I come at least once a week here, and bring any guests we have to this place for the friendliness, food and laughter! Highly recommend coming here! You won’t be disappointed
The food for me was inedible, i should have just asked for something maybe off the menu but food any food cant be this bad and NO ONE SERVES beer in Australia or thee world with a glass of ice so that it can really be chilled
Always friendly welcoming service. My partner and I we probably visit to often the family who run the restaurant are always so welcoming and inviting No to mention it’s hands down the best Indian in town. Being one of my favourite types of food I have eaten Indian all over Australia and over seas and this is definitely up there with some of the best. They have plenty of other options to keep everyone happy and have the space to entertain small and large groups. If your in town and hungry definitely give this place a go you will not be disappointed
