Indian restaurant in Wellington

“Love their food! Hidden gem in Linden.”

“We had an amazing time. The food tasted outstanding and came out very quick. We also appreciated that they had a fully vegan menu. The staff were also very knowledgeable and made the effort to explain the origins of the dishes we were eating and share how they were cooked. We also found the staff really professional in the face of some rude demanding customers, who were expecting long conversations after they had ordered when there were other guests who needed to be served. The customers were absolutely awful, but the staff handled everything politely and professionally while ensuring everyone was still served in good time. Would highly reccomend!”

“Saffron Haveli serves some of the best Indian food in Wellington! The chicken biryani is packed with flavour, and the butter chicken is rich, creamy, and perfectly balanced. Pairing it with their garlic naan takes the experience to another level. The food is fresh, and the portions are generous. Highly recommend for anyone craving authentic Indian cuisine!”

“Shakar at Chilli Masala was very welcoming and polite. His communication was clear and friendly, and his behaviour was excellent. The food he cooked was amazing and full of flavour. Really great service and experience overall. — From Prince and Aries”

“My partner and I usually go out once a month for dinner to restaurants around Wellington and we were delighted with this place! I have a gluten intolerance and the staff member that served us was super accommodating! I absolutely loved the cocktails, I had a tropical one with an ice block and a toasted marshmallow screwer. My partner had a yellow curry and I had the Bangkok Street Noodles and they even gave me some peanut sauce as I could have soy sauce and it went perfectly well with it! I’d definitely recommend this place to anyone and will be back! Thanks for a great night and experience!”

“Delicious food! Highly recommended, I believe the chef (Umesh) is highly experienced and brings his expertise all the way from bangalore (southern india). I look forward to having a meal again shortly. Hospitality of nitin was amazing and we felt welcomed straight away.”

“The biryani from Hyderabadi House Takeaway is really tasty and full of flavour. The portions are good, the price is fair, and it’s great value for money. A perfect place for anyone who loves biryani.”

“Best Indian I have had in wellington! Some friends introduced us to this place and we will be back for sure. We shared 6 different curries and they were all really tasty and the so were the pani puri. Nice views out onto tye harbour too.”

“I loved this restaurant as I’m coming first time to this place. The staff Govu Sundar chef, as well as he was service staff as well. Govu Sundar was extremely good with his cooking skill and serving skills. He was the only one attended us. I strongly recommend this restaurant for everyone out there to experience Authentic taste of Indian food. I have tasted before but this is pure Indian taste. Govu Sundar is the great asset for this restaurant.”

“Excellent place, food is delicious and highly recommend.”

“Wow...what an amazing taste! It’s been a long time since I’ve had food this good. We placed a large order of 50 chicken biryanis for a gathering, and every single one of my friends absolutely loved it. The flavors were rich, the chicken was tender, and the aroma was irresistible. Highly recommended for anyone looking for authentic, delicious biryani and great service! I’ll definitely be ordering again”

“Best Indian food in Upper Hutt by taste and value for money. Excellent service and great beer selection. Upper Hutt has huge competition for all types of Indian food with 10 or more Indian style food vendors....”

“We haven't been to this restaurant for years since it was Little India but thought we'd give Curry Leaf a try after our usual changed hands and the food there is not very nice. So glad we did! The food is delicious and the service top notch. Have since been back a couple of times and it was just as good. I hope others give this place a go as we would highly recommend it!”

“Nice home cooked food at a great price.”

“Lot of my friends told me about Spice Shack and today I experienced their Chole Bature (Delhi Style) really tasty and fresh.I got a take out.I will definitely recommend to go and try out the food.”

“Really delicious food. We've been there a few times and will be back again. Lots to choose from. We've eaten all meats and they're all tender and good portion sizes. Service is good and attentive.”

“Jugnus’s Little India offers an authentic taste of India right on our doorstep. Their butter chicken is a sublime journey of flavors, and the street food options transport you straight to the bustling lanes of Delhi. For genuine Indian cuisine that tickles the taste buds, this is the place to be! Parking is easy to find and pay attention on the location, it is at the end of the motel’s driveway. Then the great smell will lead you to their door.”

“5 star ⭐️ all around!! Service was excellent and food was delicious 10/10 recommend. Lots of parking, great value, friendly staff, and most importantly delicious food. Had takeaway too and always perfection”

“Amazing food and service. Love the ambiance there too; very chill. The menu has more choices than the current Google map photos show.”

“some of the best food in Wellington hands down, love this place”

“I have ordered food from this place, have never visited. But I love their food. I tried their fish curry last time and it took me back to the backwaters of Kerala. I decided to try some other dishes, ordered Mutton Sukka and boy, I was amazed! If you are craving authentic spicy, flavoursome curries, definitely give this a try.”

“The dosa was absolutely delicious, really tasty and well made. Food quality is excellent and I’d definitely come back for the taste alone. The only downside was the cleanliness, the floor and tables were sticky, which took away from the overall experience. If they improve this, it would be a perfect spot.”

“We’ve just moved into Ngaio and thought we’d try a takeaway from Tandoori Nights. The staff were polite the service prompt. Our curries were excellent including the samosas and onion bhajis. We’ll certainly be frequent visitors.”

“Very nice food I’m really enjoys”

“This place is outstanding. Simple food done extremely well. Flavour with depth. I work and eat all over Wellington and I'd put this up there with the Vietnamese restaurant in New town. Traditional flavours. I honestly can't say enough good things about this place. Thanks”

“Great lamb curry roti. Friendly service. Handy location at the back of the market.”

“Fantastic food. Our favourite curry in Wellington. Butter chicken, Chicken Vindaloo and Do Piaza are amazing. Thank you”

“My favourite Indian restaurant. Curry is always flavoursome, crispy naan bread. Highly recommend the Vindaloo or Tikka Masala!”

“It was one of the best tasting Indian restaurant meal we have had in many years. Great service and the food was wonderful. At home now and still have a wonderful taste in our mouths. Highly recommend.”

“OMG what a delicious dinner! So flavourful and fresh: charred cabbage, crispy potatoes and tomato, a fish main , lamb with onions. Rice and roti to match. Just YUM! Lovely welcoming service, nice explanation on what to choose in a funky venue. Perfect for any night of the week. I wish I lived here for more visits! Thankyou for a fabulous meal.”
