Indian restaurant in Auckland

“We've ordered Chef Pakwan thrice. We have not been disappointed. Good Food and Good Portions. A warning this is proper Indian curry. Not the mild imitation made for the Kiwi. Expect Spicy. Today's curry the best and most tender Lamb I've ever had.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Exceptional Hospitality and Flavourful Experience! I had the pleasure of dining at Curry O’ City Indian Restaurant & Bar, and I must say — Sagar Verma truly sets the bar high when it comes to hospitality! From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed with genuine warmth and attentiveness. Sagar’s professionalism, friendly nature, and attention to every little detail made the entire experience outstanding. The food was absolutely delicious — rich, authentic flavours that reminded me of home, beautifully presented, and perfectly balanced. The team clearly takes pride in what they do, and it shows in both the taste and the service. Sagar Verma’s personal touch and commitment to ensuring every guest feels valued make Curry O’ City a standout dining destination. Highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for great food, top-notch service, and a welcoming atmosphere.”

“I was craving for Thali and this restaurant popped up on google. $18+ for 2 curry thali as per photo with veg and non veg. Great food for its price would come back again. Would appreciate if it was an Indian Sweet as per description, got given a vanilla ice cream for dessert and much better if it was an Indian Sweet like Gulab Jamun. Chana Masala needs more working”

“The service is quick, the place is neat and they have ample seating space. Also the food quality is fresh and tasty. The quantity they provide is enough to get you full as well.”

“Their food always nice I ordered too many times never get disappointed. Even place is very neat and clean. It’s very genuine prices compare to other restaurants. Highly recommended.”

“Really interesting that all of the bad reviews are from Indians because they didn’t “get a discount” That’s not how NZ works! Looking at all reviews over the last 2 months almost all 5 star which does not surprise me. Fantastic venue, fantastic food, great atmosphere. I thoroughly recommend this restaurant”

“very tasty and friendly staff! :)”

“The two indian brothers that run this place are very attentive and professional, and service is top-notch. I've been a few times and rate it as one of the best Indian cuisine (& Thai fusion mix) curry houses on the north shore. Food is outstanding, has a very tasty and subtle blend of spice and melt-in-your mouth meat and crisp veg, and is now our favorite place to relax and have a kingfisher on tap. There is also another place upstairs, above them thats always quite busy, which I don't rate at all. Right next to the sea, good for a walk off them superb and delicious calories afterward.”

“We came to Devonport for a day trip and had a late lunch at Devonport Indian Hub. The staff greeted us warmly and even entertained our kids with snacks and balloons, which was such a thoughtful touch. The food was absolutely delicious — we ordered the deal of 4 dishes for only $75, and it was great value as wecwere 4 adults with 2 kids. Their customer service is outstanding, and the team is very friendly. They even let our kids play around, which made the experience even more enjoyable. We loved the people here and highly recommend this place!”

“Really, really yummy! I recommend the Indo-Chinese chicken momo and the spicy Indreni naan- absolute show stoppers! And great service from Aviskar”

“One of the best Indian cuisines in New Zealand! Delicious food, very affordable prices, and I highly recommend everyone to come and try it for themselves.”

“Was visiting the area and ended up trying this restaurant for lunch. Was an excellent choice with amazing food and great service. The goat curry and chicken dum biryani was really good. The Desi style butter chicken quite good too as it wasn't sweet at all. Would definitely like to revisit and try other items on the menu.”

“Great customer service. I couldn't fault the food if I tried - samosas, mild & medium butter chicken, hot methi chicken, definitely hit the spot. Highly recommend it & would most likely return in the near future.”

“Came to Khana after being recommended by a local. I'll definitely be recommending it to others! My mother and I each got the $20 Thali meal. Incredible value for money, the flavours were great and presentation beautiful. Ended it off with the Mango ice cream which was perfect - fruity but not too sweet. You couldn't fault the service. Friendly, professional and educated on Indian cuisine. The atmosphere and environment was vibrant but chill. Lovely acoustic music playing - not too loud which can happen a lot at restaurants. Overall, would come here again in a heartbeat!”

“Food was well prepared, full of flavor as promised. Very friendly service and calm atmosphere They were accommodating with a little baby and seating arrangement. Good portions and great selection.”

“Phenomenal meal at The Chefs Indian Restaurant last night. This is a true “hidden gem”, tucked away in Howick where you wouldn’t expect it. The food was very high quality - delicious entrees, mains and breads. The staff were friendly and kind and generous. The cost was very fair and great value for money. Vege curries were $17.90 and breads were $5-$6. Highly recommend!”

“We recently had my son’s birthday celebration catered by Bhojan Indian Restaurant, and I must say it was an amazing experience from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious – every single dish was rich in authentic Indian flavors and loved by all our guests. Many of them personally complimented us on the catering and asked about the restaurant because they enjoyed the food so much. The pricing was very reasonable for the quality and quantity provided, which made it even better. The staff, along with the owner, were extremely helpful, attentive, and made sure everything went smoothly throughout the function. From setup to service, their professionalism really stood out. If you’re looking for authentic Indian cuisine with excellent service and great value, I highly recommend Bhojan Indian Restaurant for any event or celebration. They truly made our son’s birthday memorable.”

“Tried their food for the first time and absolutely loved it. First Indian takeaway that catered for the food the way we wanted it. The chef made our meals exactly as we wanted them. He knew the true meaning of mild, medium and hot. Front staff are friendly and courteous. They also have a selection of sweets and snacks. Highly recommended.”

“nice food great service! really enjoyed the beach view with authentic indian food! will bring family and friends here next time!”

“One of the best Indian Restaurant in west Auckland. You don’t find the authentic Indian taste everywhere in Auckland but Shahi is a must visit for all the food lovers. Amazing food with great service from the team . The owners are very welcoming. It’s my go to place every weekend . You must try the Palak Paneer/Veg Kofta /Veg Biryani and Momos they are very good . I am a vegetarian but my friends have tried lamb biryani and curry and they like it a lot.”

“I had an amazing experience dining at Sidart with my partner. The waiter and waitress were attentive and the food was served at a very good pace - not left too long between the courses. The food itself was absolutely delicious, one of my favourite out of all the degustation meals I’ve had. The flavour combination was unique and finely balanced, and the amount of food did not left me too hungry or too full by the end of the night. Would highly recommend this restaurant to others and will be sure to come back soon :)”

“This restaurant is a hidden gem in Auckland if you want authentic Indian food, excellent service, and a welcoming atmosphere. The Chitali and Nikunj were great, and the setting had a very ethnic feel to it. The highlight and best part were the Australian Eggs Fried and Pani Puri. would like to go back. strongly advised.”

“Actually the best! Delicious, authentic Indian food. You can truly taste the love, you'll feel so blessed after eating here ❤️ Lovely service too. If you feel like Indian food, come here. You won't regret it.”

“the pani purri not very good the shell nice for the casing and sour but very good vada pav and spicy”

“I had an amazing experience at Everest Dine Restaurant, and I want to specially appreciate Pawan for his excellent service. The momos were absolutely delicious—perfectly steamed, juicy, and full of authentic Nepali flavour. The Nepali Thali was outstanding as well, with a great variety of dishes, balanced spices, and a truly homely taste. Pawan was extremely polite, attentive, and made sure we enjoyed our meal. His warm hospitality added so much to the overall dining experience. Highly recommend Everest Dine for anyone looking for genuine Nepali food and great service. Will definitely be visiting again!”

“We always order the Chicken Kadai and Chicken Tikka Masala, and the food is consistently excellent. Generous portions, tender chicken, and rich, authentic flavours every time. So consistently good. Our go-to for amazing Indian food in Milford”
