Loved all the dishes we had on the night, there’s nothing much to fault about the flavour. I would say the main issue we had is the understanding of what is considered “gluten-free”. It was clear the waiter who looked experienced and like he’d been there a while didn’t really have a lot of knowledge around this, despite there being a note in the menu that certain dishes could be made gluten free. Probably best that they put disclaimers on each individual dish, rather than having to haphazardly point out which they think might be GF.
It was really an incredible experience over here while I came with my family for dinner.Their friendly and great staff who are perfect for providing a satisfied customer service.If we talk about their food which we can consider as one of the best and authentic Indian flavour taste restaurant & not only about the taste If we see presentation of everything is perfectly design.Which I had never got at an restaurant in Sydney. I will recommend these restaurant for people who wanna try great food, for people who are trying first time Indian food with great smiling staff please visit here. Overall I will give 101 out of 100 to this restaurant for everything food, staff and service.
Have been here a few times now and it has been great. Its a fusion indian restaurant where they have the classic dishes, with a little twist like their curry bombs which are essentially Pani Puri's but they have it with paneer filling and tandoori sauce. Food was exceptional as always and it's a must try in Surry Hills. It has great decor and has signatures of the Indian cricket team on their walls which is very cool. Would definitely be heading back
We had a fantastic experience and meal here! We had the meat-entree banquet and 3 gin cocktails and all of it was impressive. Not only do they give their food a fusion twist they also do the basics very well.and it's all presented very nicely. On-top of the food the cocktails were awesome, unique and had a great Indian influence. Definitely will be going back
The curry bombs were bombs! Too good! The lamb chops were beautifully cooked. The mango goes so well with it. Never had a clue that they could be a good match. Loved the beautifully decorated chaat as well. The strawberry chicken was okay according to my taste. Did not love the mango lassi. Maybe it is just me. As a Bangladeshi, I am more used to lassi that is lighter and more refreshing. It was a bit too thick for my taste. Loved the experience altogether!
This restaurant has such a unique and mysterious character which stays in your memory forever! I love it!!! First of all the food is extraordinary delicious! I would go and kiss the chef’s hand next time! The presentation is fabulous! The deep house music in background intensifies the feelings and flavour! The decoration makes you feel like you have found the secret door to travel in your dreams to a colourful back street of a mysterious land of the greatest flavours! Wow, the owner/manager, chef, and staff are smart and respectable. Thanks Masala Theory for your creativity and brilliant idea! 10 out of 5
From the minute I arrived in Sydney to visit my daughter, she told me we HAVE to come here and she was SO right! A really authentic Indian restaurant in cool, trendy style. All staff were super helpful including our server, Amar, who was respectful, knowledgable and truly a great asset to the restaurant. Delicious food, brilliant setting and a great dessert recommendation by Amar all made from a delicious meal and lovely evening.
Gotta say they are serious about spices and they’re taking Indian cuisine to the new level. Bored of usual Indian food? Don’t worry, me too. But good news is that we have @masalatheory that will WOW us with their remarkable Neo Indian Menu. Masala Theory is tucked away in Surry Hills, perfect spot for casual lunch and dinner where you get a slice of India on your plate. Before I talk about what I have tasted at Masala Theory, I have to say I’m in love with their hip and vibrant interior. So awesome, it elevates the whole Indian dining experience. Not only that, this restaurant is so welcoming and you can feel the friendly and fun vibes from their crew. Every dish on their menu comes with some fun unique twists, that makes them different from the rest of the Indian restaurants. I really appreciate their effort and talents in the details, the use of spices, colors and pairing their food with their NEW cocktail menu. Super excited with their unbelievable stunning cocktails range that they created for this season. I am blown-away with every dish that I have tasted, the spices and aromas definitely stimulate my taste buds. It tastes as good as it looks. Check out what we have tasted: Mini Maska Buns - $11.9 Bunny Chow - $27.9 Moilee Curry Fish on String Hoppers - $29.9 Butter Chicken - $27.9 Curry Bombs with Ruby Murray Sauce - $16.9 Vegan Curry Bombs - $16.9Indian Green Curry with Veggie Koftas - $22..9 Salli Boti - $28.9 Tandoori Khazana Splash - $34.9 Kumbh Naan - $7 Garlic Naan - $5 Ras Malai Banoffee with Parle-G Crumble - $16 Drunk Gulab Jamun- $7per piece Mumbai Margarita - $18 Hafus Kairi Panna - $14 Anaar Sling - $21 Gulabi Mojito - $18 If you can’t decide what to order, I highly recommend their Chef’s Tasting Banquets. With their tasting banquet option, you get to taste all the signature dishes and they have veg/non-veg options so don’t worry if you have dietary requirements. Check out the photos...their food is just stunning!
Went in with a bunch of friends over dinner as found this one to be listed as top must try places in Sydney in one of the articles. I’m my honest opinion, it’s a great attempt to create modern Indian or as the called it neo Indian cuisine. Definitely points for creativity on the menu and presentation, but when it comes to flavour and taste the food does lack that. We tried a good flair of entree, mains and our personal fav was their dal makhni. Good friendly service, although it felt that they were terribly understaffed but can’t blame much, at this point all hospitality venues are going through the same pain
Possibly The best Indian restaurant we’ve been to. Modern vibe, great service, spectacular food. Loved Loved Loved the food menu and drink menu is one of the kind. Dessert menu is great. To the point service and great staff, I am definitely coming back whenever in Sydney.
