Little India

Price was good. Had two full meals, several sides and a large bottle of sparkly and paid $89. Food was well presented and tasted authentic. Loved the Vindaloo spices. Great atmosphere and friendly staff. Busy little place so you have to patient for service. One thing I found should not be done is serve a cold drink in glasses that have just come out of the dishwasher which are still hot.

Good Indian is always hard to find as it can sometimes cater for the Western Market. But this place was authentic and fantastic. The service is good and friendly. The prices are reasonable. The food is excellent. I have been here a few times and it never fails to disappoint. There is some great Indian in Auckland including some fusion places. But this is the best for straight up Indian.

Quiet on the evening we visited the staff were friendly and attentive, no hassle even though it was just a quick visit and we only ordered one dish to share didn't bother them and they came out with the food quick smart. Delicious butter chicken ha! Yes we ordered this most typical Indian dish... and not disappointed. Success! Succulent and flavoursome. Will visit again.

Great time shared by me and my friend's here. The food was really great, amazing butter chicken, and a great mix of spices. Will definitely come back again, and the staff were great, friendly and the food came fast.

Reliably delicious food, the heat varies at times but I've always enjoyed my meals here.

I think it's the high price that's kept me from eating here before despite living around the corner, BUT it's worth it. Friendly table and counter service. Huge menu. Nice interior decor and elegant seating too, perfect for a date night. Got the Rogan Josh bc I wanted something a little more spicy than a medium level, but they'll still ask you how spicy do you want it. Brought a pitcher of water to my table. Tuesday night at 730pm also apparently is a busy time bc the place just got 100% packed. They'll do takeaway as well. Enjoy!

If your from India, or love Indian food. This is a place to go. Specially if you love Chicken Biryani. They also have delicious Indian desserts like Gulab jamun, rasmali...

Amazing food. Nice hospitality. Nice customer service. A must visit.

Had a wonderful experience at this restaurant! Staff was so friendly and helpful as we aren't locals, the food was amazing best Indian food we had ever tasted. You could taste the spices not cream or tomato paste in curries, Naan was cooked perfectly, it absolutely impressed all of our family including fussy teenage kids. Worth every cent Would definitely go back. Happy Gisborne family.

My previous review may seem harsh but still stands. To be fair I do think they have been very good in the past and will certainly try again to see if they have improved. The food is always top quality, it’s just the service that always seems to let them down. Very hard to get them to check if the meals ok or you want a drink. I generally order two drinks at the beginning.
