This Indian restaurant is great place to feel "Desi". It has a good range of menu with a decent pricing. The food is great both in taste and presentation. The quantity is sufficient. The flavours are well balanced. The staff are friendly and gives you suggestions. The best part of the restaurant are the owners who have set it up with Indian food passion. OverAll experience was great and is recommended for anyone looking for a great meal.

The food was delicious especially the rice with lamb. Their service was excellent! We were happy and full! We will definitely visit again!

Been hear twice now and both times the food has been amazing and friendly, personally I think its the best in the high street proper authentic flavours, took the Wife for Valentines we had a great night. Thanks and we'll see you again soon..

A great local Indian restaurant. There are plenty of options to choose from and the menu is updated and changed fairly often. Staff are friendly and the food is always excellent (fairly priced too!)

Very good food, unique menu ideas from across the country of India. For instance there was jhal muri, aside with delicious biryani. We went as a group of 9, after going there several times in smaller groups. Did not disappoint! Would recommend spinach and dill chicken. Generous portion sizes as well…

The food was alright, although I found it a bit plain for my liking... In some foods the seasoning and spice levels were of in others they were no existent - Personally wouldn't recommend but I know a lot of people who like this restaurant.

Visited this place based on Google reviews. Excellent food menu and some of the dishes are unique as compared to other Indian restaurants in the vicinity. Pleasant ambiance and good service. Overall excellent experience to plan another visit.

Lovely local restaurant. Nice service and lovely staff. Good vegetarian starters (beetroot cutlet, paneer shashlik, chaat samosa). Main a bit disappointing. Masala dosa not crispy. Sambar made of mainly tomatoes. Chicken byriani is tasty but again a bit too much tomato based. Children chicken nugget are definitely a no go (too rough). Lassi mango had a bitter/sour taste (wondering if the milk or ice cream was off). Will go back to try the tasting menu.

Really nice food. Friendly staff. Some nice original dishes much better than your average curry restaurant.

Awesome food with some great varieties, Impressed by the portion size. Massive portions for the mains. We took, Rajastani Daal and Dill and Spinach Chicken. It was deliciously tasty. We took Aloo Tikki chat - Bigger portion could have been a good idea there and would have preferred a flat presentation rather than the small bowl, which was difficult to eat. Service was good. Especially enjoyed the special request they fulfilled for Pickle and Onion to go with the food. Surprised to see it was charged though when we saw the bill. Would certainly recommend for the great tasting food and big portion sizes overall.

Eaten here a few times now and in our opinion this is Orpington's best Indian restaurant - the dishes are authentic, interesting and incredibly well flavoured. Particular favourites for us are the Railway Lamb, Macchi ka Saalan (salmon), Maacher Jhol (fish) and Dal Bukhara (lentils). Some reviewers have said the prices are high, but I think they're very reasonable for what you get - the food is so much more authentic than your standard British curries (although they do still offer those too) and the flavours are to die for. Would definitely recommend ordering something you may not have tried before. The service is personable and relaxed and we always leave feeling like we've been well looked after and have had a great time. We didn't have a booking this time and they still accommodated us and managed to fit us in on a busy evening. We've tried lots of others in Orpington that just don't compare when it comes to quality and flavour (including the newer Talli Kitchen, which unfortunately left our whole party feeling unwell the next day). Would definitely recommend trying here instead! Hoping to be back soon to try out their lunchtime thali menu...

We were the first customers in today! Excellent service, food took a while to come to us but it was completely worth the wait. Kids had idli and masala Dosa and finished every last bit of it. Being indians we are fussy about our food- the restaurant did not disappoint at all. The Hyderabadi baigan ka salan and biryani were amazing. The jackfruit curry was delicious and so was the roti. All in all, great food, great vibe and very knowledgeable manager who was great at recommendations of what to eat. Vegetarian and meat choices available for every taste.

Absolutely delicious food - and one of the very few Indian restaurants in the area that serves authentic dishes. The chole bhatura is amazing. 😋

The food is wonderful! Justine is a brilliant member of staff -unfortunately her shift ended after helping us order. We appreciate that a staff member didn't turn up to replace Justine, but the service was poor! The Manager agreed to take the service charge off of our bill. Despite this, we would return

Excellent authentic Indian food and very different menu that will surprise you! It's better than those fancy central London Indian restaurants. Must visit and I am sure you keep coming. I will definitely come back to taste other items! 👍👍👍👍👍

Me and my husband enjoyed a valentine meal this evening. Well what can i say firstly the atmosphere was very nice waiters very attentive and gave us some history on the recipes , was very interesting. And gave us ideas on what to try the food portions were generous and steaming hot very tasty food very fresh,i could not fault anything i did try!good prices will definitely go back . Best around.thanks for making our evening special

Really great Indian restaurant, food was all rich and full of flavour. Some interesting menu options across 2 pages, will definitely be back to try more of it. The service was exceptional as well, plus the decor of the restaurant is brilliant. Would definitely recommend it!

We have just eaten at Masala Dabbas our starter of Lime & Lemon chicken Shashlik was one of the best starters we have ever had.The main meal was equally as good as the starter. Staff very friendly and attentive. Will definitely be returning soon.

We have visited a number of times and have always had lovely food and nice service. We took friends with us on Saturday. The usual front of house guy who is very good was not there. There were three people serving tables. It was very quiet but we put this down to being a hot evening so not many people want to sit inside to eat! The staff were polite but not very well trained. So, if they were new then the owner (who was there) should be observing ! When we were ordering our food the lady asked us if we really needed 3 rice's (there were 4 of us) and when we pointed out that we did she then asked our friend, when he ordered his food, if he really needed another rice as we had 3 already? We also had confusion over bread but she may not have heard correctly ? The food came and it was lovely! She then asked if we wanted sweets and then only gave us 1 menu and after a minute came back to ask if we knew what we wanted (obviously 4 people had not had a chance to look at one menu in a minute). We ordered some sweets and our friend ask for a coffee. She was told 'no' by a very timid lady who could not understand us. I approached the owner and he imformed us the machine was broken and he could make an instant coffee but we decided against it. As soon as we finished our sweets the owner came over and told us that they close in ten minutes ( good we didn't have that coffee as we would have run over their closing time. I appreciate they close at 10.30 because they dont want people in there from the pubs. There's a lack of customer awareness and service here! We did not expect to sit there half of the night but fail to see why this needs to be pointed out so quickly. It's almost like....we have your money now you can go, thanks. Our bill was £150. I should think the lack of customers that night they would have be glad to have us!

Was looking forward to a nice Indian, but unfortunately we didn't get one. One main chicken came out cold seemed undercooked was left The other was a medium dish that was just so hot I didn't enjoy... way to hot... We did tell them early on but they waited until we had all finish to bring it up and ask if we wanted it recooked which is an odd way to deal with a customer compliant. We passed as unfortunately by that time we we're done with it. Nice staff but the food was undewhelming and a bit Jarish?

Great to see an Indian menu that differs from the normal choices Lovely food and so many unusual options that I will need to eat there again (and again) Not too busy and no loud music so very comfortable to sit and chat but this may contribute to a slight lack of atmosphere - a potential solution is for the staff to offer insight into some of the interesting menu choices that are not on offer elsewhere

Thought of an authentic masala dishes but Disappointed as too pricy for not so great dishes. It's better to always declare what is the service charge else clients would wonder what is that. Is it tip ?? I always thought tips are given to the waiters, why add it to the bill!!

Good Friday night curry with the lads. Good quality food and notvthe usual offering but I enjoyed it. Only criticism was they were very eager to get us out after eating.

Some of the most friendly people ive had the opportunity to meet. Incredible service with recommendations on our vegan choices. Great portion size and lots of flavour. Thank you for a lovely evening visit.

Had an Afternoon Tea with friends yesterday - everything tasted delicious. I especially loved the Samosa chat & the Chicken Tikka Bun was complimented by the chutneys. The Special Chai went really well with all the food - I will certainly book & go again.

Been wanting to try this restaurant for a long time, but never had the chance to and it did not disappoint! Some of the best Indian food we have eaten and definitely a local treasure! Highly recommend.

This is our last visit to this restaurant. We are a regular customer and visit frequently as the food is very good but the service is appalling. I read a few reviews and most say the same : poor service, one person manning the entire restaurant, no one comes unless you ask them. And the excuses mentioned by the owner is laughable. Get your staffing issues sorted. We went there during lunch and the entire restaurant was empty and we sat for a long time and no one came to ask or give us the menus. We requested for them, requested for water, then requested for cutlery, then requested for our food which came in at sporadic times. Some got their starters, some did not. Then the mains came in for certain people. When we complained we were told the delivery orders were a priority. Apparently customers in the restaurant can wait as they don’t complain but the delivery orders cannot as they can be complained for a refund or exchange. They just shrugged when we said why should we have to wait and not be served when we have come all the way to your restaurant. Just plain rude. Well I am not coming back till you sort out your staffing issues and learn how to deal with your customers with some politeness and courtsey.

Absolutely amazing food, veg manchurian is one of the best starters I've had ever. The rogan josh was well above average. Great service and good atmosphere. The price may seem expensive, but the food is much better than your typical Indian restaurant.
