Reviews praise The Monsoon's friendly service, naan and occasional standout curries, but note variable dish consistency, dessert availability and limited parking.

The service was excellent and the food was delicious.

The service was excellent as eating. my family and I had a nice evening in this restaurant. we will go back in any case

Going for Curry in Ziegelgasse is a bit like a lucky one. Monsoon was really good. My husband and I went for a Veggie-Tali that was ideal for two and a prawn curry.

Nice food and friendly staff
