If you are looking for a nice easy, lazy lunch or early dinner this is a great place. The location is perfect for people watching whether you sit inside or outside. We ordered a variety of different dishes to try. Each dish was quite unique in flavour and would recommend them all. Picture attached for reference. The wait staff are all foreign so somethings are lost in translation but they are pleasant and attentive. Would definitely go back.

Ordered Garlic naan, chicken biriyani, marinated beef curry and kerela pork curry for lunch. Never in my entire life I felt such a regret. Although the curries LOOKED alright, they were a disaster interms of taste and I would prefer to call biriyani as tumeric rice! No value at all for the price. would never go back. Sorry for this review guys but this has to be done to let others know.

Have always been wanting to come here for awhile and finally got the chance tonight. I’ll be completely honest though, I was fairly disappointed with the dishes. While the atmosphere and service was great, the food was really underwhelming. We ordered Pani Puri, Beef Samosa, Signature Auntie G Chicken, Barramundi in Banana Leaf and an Eggplant dish, along with some basmati rice, roti and pappadum. I really enjoyed the Pani Puri, but the rest is below average. Samosa pastry was too thick, Barramundi was too soft, Eggplant was overly mushy (basically a puree). But generally my main complain was they were really bland. When I think of Indian dishes I expect rich flavour and explosion of spices. But this was not what I’m getting. It was to the point where I ate my dishes simply because I have paid for it. As much as I tried, I just could not enjoy them. Both me and my wife unanimously agreed that we had a much better Indian food at our local Indian restaurants, that would cost almost half the price. Not sure if we came at the wrong night because this place is highly reviewed. And I really did have high expectation. But based on our personal experience, we’d rather try another place. But then again, your experience may vary. So I encourage you to try for yourself as ours might be an isolated experience. And I certainly hope that is the case.

It was an expensive experience. We had the Feed Me Menu. Good to say oh yes I've been there. But not a place I would return as too costly for the portion of food. Food was well presented and tasty, not very spicy, fusion style. Service was efficient and friendly. Unfortunately I guess due to lack of staff in the kitchen, we had to wait nearly an hour for the desserts which were just ice cream popsicle sticks on a plate!

Expectations exceeded! We did the street food experience and we were blown away by the quality of the food. Highly recommend the Lamb ribs, which were to die for. Cocktails were also excellent. Service was good and overall great value for money. Definitely give them a shot.

Rip off under the name “Indian food”, worst restaurant, ask people to leave if they sit more than 20-30 minutes ! Regret that I took a friend here tog eat him to taste Indian delicacies. Shame and utter disappointment but nothing HELL NO, in future!!!

Based on this experience would not recommend. We were seated at the table by a member of staff. She just left us without offering us water or taking drink orders. We sat waiting around 10 minutes and the lady returned- only to serve the couple next to us (who arrived after we did). Unfortunately when we did order 2 of the items were unavailable (peated whiskey and oysters), also the menu had changed since our last visit which was disappointing as we were looking forward to the lamb biryani. The food was decent but two of the items we ordered never arrived (butter chicken and raita) - we were charged for these items which I had to explain to the girl at checkout we never received these. No apology or discount was offered. Shame the menu had changed, the duck and beef were OKAY, but wouldn't go back for those dishes. Food aside, service far below average and considering it was an anniversary dinner was very disappointed, especially considering the price to dine.

came here with friends for dinner, goat curry was the highlight, the meat was so beautifully soft and flavoursome, the best goat curry I've had!! my only gripe is that the vegetarian entree sizes could have been bigger for the price, I think we were a bit disappointed with only 5 small mushrooms for 5 of us! a few more pieces of onion bhaji would have been good too. as 3 of the group were vegetarian it felt unfair for the chicken entree of 5 large pieces to be so much more substantial than the 5 small pieces of mushroom entree, I felt bad :'') the quality of the entrees were great though, the vegetarian main curries were nice to dip with the well-flavoured garlic naan. the drinks were enjoyable, I'd like to try the mango lassi sometime. the waitress brought me a takeaway container free of charge which I appreciated. at $52pp it was a good meal but yeah would have appreciated more generous portions for the vegetarian entrees! to be fair maybe what we had wasn't the best representation, I'd be interested to try the set menu sometime.

A funky, interesting and delightful Indian Restaurant on William Street. Staff where wonderful - helpful and talkative! Purchased a vegan kofta takeaway that was delicious 😋 Restaurant had cool and interesting decor, with a variety of seating options to suit your desires. Let down by a broken glass front door and average outside appearance.

Great authentic Indian food. Everything we tried was excellent. Just be careful with the spiciness level.

Excellent takeout - lamb curry and chicken vindaloo were excellent - handoff at the door was easy and faster than predicted - will definitely go back

I order takeout from Punjab about once or twice a week. I always get plain paratha, paneer korma, chana paneer, and dal makhani. It ends up providing a lunch and dinner for both me and my boyfriend: 4 meals for around $50. They are definitely the best Indian restaurant I've experienced in Massachusetts, and I have tried at least 9 others. Ask for their 'gajar ka halwa' dessert - it is truly unmatched.

Wow! I normally do not go to Indian restaurants or eat the food. I have never really enjoyed it, to be honest. But Sauma is different. The food was fantastic with a great variety that catered for simpletons like me. Great food, really great food! Lovely staff who were helpful, friendly and efficient. I would recommend this to anyone. Well done, I will be going back to this restaurant.

Usaually this is one of my favorite indain but not tonight. So disopointed as i talked it up to my friend who we bouht along with us.The papadumes were stale and the food tasted watered down.

Truly an experience. The staff was extremely friendly and welcoming. And the food was on-point. It was the perfect combination of flavors and spices with a wide variety. Absolutely loved the cocktails and bar aswell.

I took my partner here for his birthday and he loved the cocktails! The door person was really nice and welcoming! We chose the street food adventure option ($55 pp). The food was sensational. Some dishes were a little spicy for me but my partner loved it! It was expected for sure. The only feedback I have is when the floor staff brings food to the table, they should probably tell us what it is or just a quick explanation of the dish We had to ask a few times because some dishes were essentially “drop” on the table without telling us what the dish was. I understand the restaurant was busy but I do feel like a little interaction is part of the service industry and part of the experience.

Really yummy food. We had one cocktail a beer two juices, 2 rice, naan, butter chicken, pork vindaloo and a goat curry. All faultless. Wasn’t super busy which surprised me as food was great. Try the Gooseberry Hill cocktail.

The food was not bad. Some food was way too spicy hot. The non alcoholic mango lassi was way overpriced for the amount you got, (prepared, no alcohol and $10 for maybe 250 mil… never again) however the amount of food that came out on the $65 each meal where the small plates of everything just keeps coming out was great. Usually you can’t get this sort of meal unless you have a minimum of 6, or 10. The minimum here is 2. The first one of the meals is some chilli shot glass thing, I personally didn’t go much on that. Others seemed to love it and were ordered 3 and four for themselves. Not for me that’s for sure. I tried it, however… Narr. The rest of the small meals that came out were pretty good except for the last one. The naan 🫓 bread on the last meal was awesome, but watch the food it comes with. Waayyy to spicy for me. The service was a bit… okay. We think we got forgotten initially as the first part of the meal didn’t come out for about 25 minutes. We said we had less than an hour left and then the food was one after the other fast. Until the dessert… for some reason another 20 minutes went past until the dessert came out. I think the order of the food could do with a revamp as well. One dish came out that was so spicy you couldn’t taste the next meal. (I think it was the one before the fish. I can’t remember. Presentation of all meals was good as well. No music playing… not even lightly. Not really any “sound” atmosphere was created until a very loud group of 20 odd women came all sitting on one table, and one woman would laugh so loud it would bounce off the back wall where we were seated and we couldn’t hear each other talk at all less than 30cm from each other. The visual atmosphere was nice though. Don’t go to the back wall and think that will be cosy and out of the way. Anyone loud comes in and you’ll be looking for exits.

Unexpected service and Wonderful experience from an Indian Restaurant in Perth CBD, Western Australia. I visited Sauma Restaurant, Perth, a couple of weeks ago when I was looking around for a place to have my dinner. Went in and was greeted by a white girl and directed to a table and she handed me a menu card. Upon going through the menu card, I realised it was an Indian Restaurant ! I couldn’t figure it out from the name to be honest. Looked around for any Indian staff members or customers. Surprisingly, I couldn’t find anyone of Indian descent in the restaurant, serving or being served ! (Not sure if anyone was behind the scenes like in the kitchen.) We (myself and my wife) were the only Indians in that Indian restaurant. With a bit of speculation, I ordered some food. Butter Nans, Fish wrapped in Banana leaves, and Pork Vindaloo. Surprisingly the food was Fantastic and Delicious ! That Fish dish took me all the way back home to my hometown in Kerala, India. And they served beautiful drinks too. Thank you so much guys for your great hospitality and the amazing work that you are doing. Keep your Wonderful work going. I will definitely visit you again in my next trip to Perth. Highly Recommended to All who visit Perth. Greetings from Melbourne, Australia.

Lunch with my siblings today. Ordered the Thali's for something different. A little disappointed with the quantity of curries in the small dishes. Food was tasty and staff were all lovely. Great service. Sneaky surcharge $35 for being a Sunday.

Had the most wonderful goat curry! All four of us had incredible, value for money and delicious dishes. Excellent service just topped it off! Thank you. Highly recommend.

So welcoming and helpful even on a really busy night. Great atmosphere and amazing food, thankyou so much for your hospitality!

Delicious modern lndian food. Great twist to some of the dishes ensures it's not your standard Indian restaurant. Good selection of drinks available to match.

Fantastic service and fantastic staff. Thankyou so much for such an accommodating and fantastic evening.

Fantastic food and good service. Quality produce and even better price.

Yummy. I recommend the cheese naan bread with the goat curry. Both together are lovely. The chilli squid was amazing too (and I'm not much of a chilli fan). Delicious. Thankyou for pleasant evening.

Highly recommend this fabulous Indian restaurant. Great food and great service.

Knowledgeable friendly staff and great food

The best Indian food in Perth. All the dishes have been amazing. We ate the lamb ribs, green chicken tikka, Wagyu beef samosas, arancini balls and the butter chicken. Everything was absolutely delicious. The service was friendly and super quick. The wines and cocktails they serve were really good too. We will definitely be back! 5 Stars well deserved! Thanks for the great experience and food!

Indian street food restaurant, the layout consists of mostly large "share tables" near the entrance and middle with some small "couples tables" in the back. The food which is brought out as it's cooked was nice with some good flavor, the cocktails were pricey and on the small side but tasted amazing. The atmosphere was great but it was very loud inside, I had to raise my voice a lot just to speak across the table. The service seemed relatively good, looking around at other tables most drinks started coming out within 3 - 5 minutes from ordering and the food would start coming out 5 or so minutes after that.

Tried this Indian restaurant after we were craving for some Indian foods. The place was pretty big and cozy. It felt more like a bar than an Indian restaurant. The staff were friendly and the foods were nice. The steamed fish in banana leaves were very nice. We had it together with their tiffin lunch excites. Both combined were pretty filling.

Best Indian in Perth by far!!

Best Indian food in Perth

BEST Indian I have ever had. Must try if in Northbridge / Perth CBD area

Indian street food with a twist. Flavour explosion. Chef selection of all the popular dishes or order ala carte. My favourite Indian restaurant in Perth. Buzzing warm venue.

The food was great and service was amazing!

Great take on modern Indian

Amazing! Great food and good wine list

Worsted customer experience ever. Food good but manager has no concept of social distancing and even tried to ban us from drinking because we insisted on it. Would not recommend this place if you wanted a covid-19 free experience because it is only lip service.

Great experience food fantastic

Only disappointing bit was the Wagyu beef samosas. It was minsed beef and I was expecting slow cooked wagu.

Holy guocamole this place was INCREDIBLE. I swear the food came out not even 5 minutes after we ordered it. One of the best espresso martinis I've had in Perth and did I mention how delicious the food was! We got the chefs menu and for only $55 per person it was an amazing variety and everything tasted so fresh. Cannot wait to come back, will be recommending to everyone I know.

Awesome

We had the lunchtime special which was an entrée, rice, naan, and a chicken curry - everything was great and it was served in one of those circular metal Indian lunchboxes - great fun

Quite a average experience as our expectations were pretty high with food.

It’s lockdown and I’ve just received an email from Sauma regarding their Mothers’ Day delivery our pickup orders, which reminds me to finally write a review onthe food and experience I’ve had there. It’s a restaurant I’ve frequented on a number of occasions in fact, both for dinner and lunch in smaller and larger groups. The service is friendly, New York style and its food is a smashing of Indian and western tastes and traditions to put a smile on anyone’s lips. On one occasion I invited an Indian friend of mine. I was a little worried that he might not come when he heard it was an Indian as he can knock together a mean curry of his own. After arriving I quickly understood it was his cup of tea by his big grin. Definitely worth the visit, get to Sauma and try their fantastic variety of Indian inspired dishes both spicy and naughty (pani puri shots), almost all with a unique twist of infused western.

Very westernized. NOT INDIAN AT ALL! For example the butter chicken tasted like chicken stew ? We also ordered Banana leave fish which I could NOT eat. The quality of fish is juicy and tender but the marination is very weird tangy sour taste(like ? or something is really off). Very disappointed. The oysters were very nice though. I would just come back here for this. The right balance of spices made these fresh oyster taste unique and I get THAT hint of Indian taste. Good-looking plating and the restaurant’s ambiance is nice. But for someone who’s craving for authentic taste of India, I would not recommend. If you are looking for a tiny sprinkle of some Indian spices in the European dishes, this might be your cup of tea ?

Fantastic food. So much flavour. Brilliant atmosphere. Wonderful service.

Great food and service but all in all quite expensive

Quick...

PANI PURI FROM HERE IS LIFE. Also everything else is delish. Do it

Nice place for a meal

Awesome food and service, very short walk to Perth city centre.

Great food and great service

Favorite Indian in the city

(Translated by Google) Good Indian food and pleasant service! (Original) Bonne cuisine indienne et service agréable !

Awesome food, tastes so fresh and flavoursome. The staff were so accommodating and attentive !!

Delicious Indian food that don't rely on chili for taste

Frosty service but great menu and absolutely delicious food. Highly recommend the Aunty G's curry and cheese nann bread.

Good food, great atmosphere.

Great good and vibe for reasonable prices. Good service. One of the best on William st.

(Translated by Google) It's delicious but it's expensive. Rice, Roti and Arancini curry are like this. (Original) 맛있는데 가격이 비쌉니다 밥이랑 로티랑 아란치니 커리 이렇게 시켯는데 45불정도 나왔어요

Really delicious Indian cuisine. Reminds me of Dishoom in Britain... if only they had bottomless chai!

Great food

BEST PLACE TO HAVE A QUALITY TIME. Awesome Food , Awesome service.

Amazing indian food with a twist. We tried the chicken, fish, pork and goat dishes with rice and naan and they were all amazing. Definitely recommend making a prior reservation.

Had the set menu as we were in a large group. Moderately expensive but you did get a fair amount of food. Really varied dishes, all of them were fantastic. Service was great and friendly despite it being busy. Large drinks menu with cocktails too. Would absolutely come back.

This has become our go-to restaurant over the past few years as they never fail to provide awesome service, great atmosphere and brilliant food. It's not your typical Indian food but you'll be talking about it for a long time! I highly recommend the "long table menus" (minimum 2 people) where you get to have a bit of almost everything. This will work out cheaper than if you buy the dishes separately. Love this place!

We have been to Sauma several times. We love consistently good service and food. Well done, keep it up and we will keep on coming back 🤗

We had the Street food adventure which was great value for money at $55pp for 8 courses! Highly recommend! Favourite dish was the melt in your mouth lamb ribs, amazing!

Wow 🤩 so blown away by the world vegan day feed me menu at Sauma! They completely exceeded all my expectations. Every item was amazing but the watermelon soup really stood out to both me and my date. The food was delicious, unique, and well thought out. The service was fantastic and the owner/ chef really went out of his way to explain each dish he brought and its origins. Atmosphere was great too, its cozy, elegant, and funky all at the same time. This menu was unfortunately only available today but maybe if we bug them enough they'll bring it back 😉

If like me you are unsure of the Indian dining scene then Sauma is a must which caters for the unsure to the know all of modern contemporary dishes with a wow factor, the service polite and impeccable and the options of small and larger plates is a winner. Décor, ambience and the open kitchen exceptional. Highly recommended.

Great food and service. Small share plates great for an early dinner.

The food is nice. Though the service is quite lacklustre. There were long delays between courses. The wait staff not very knowledgeable about the menu, and clearly very irritated when you ask questions. And don't question the bill whatever you do as you'll be met with eye rolls and sighs - even when you realise you made a mistake and tell them to put the drink back on the bill and that you're happy to pay for it if your guests ordered it. Came here for a work dinner. Would not put it on top of my list of places to come back to. My first visit years ago was more enjoyable. Maybe not the place to go for big groups.

Always excellent and unique food.

Ok but limited menu.

Amazing vibe, and even more amazing food!

Very nice, affordable amazing food. You MUST try the chilli mojito!

One of the BEST resturant in Northridge.. I've been a couple of times and never have I been disappointed! Always Gorgeous food and welcoming , friendly staff and good vibes.

Arrived on time and was promptly seated. Staff then shoved menus in front of us and walked away, never to be seen again. Other patrons who arrived and seated after us were attended to whilst we were kept waiting. We weren't even brought water. Staff were also more concerned in cleaning empty tables than taking orders. We ended up walking out after 20 minutes of no acknowledgement.

Best Naan bread in Perth. Best Goat curry in Perth. Absolutely loved it.

Food was well presented. Did not like the communal table as there was another family at the other end of the table and they were eating meat and for us it was diwali when we eat only vegetarian food. I did not enjoy the dinner as i had booked the diwali menu. Good stuff: food was well presented, decent value for money, fresh tasting and you can see its good quality produce being used. The started were fab but main dishes - zucchini kofta and egglant curry tasted nearly the same - the gravy felt like the same. We were 2 adults & 1 child. Our child eats same food as us. But we could not order 3 diwali feasts as it was priced at $49 each, our child can't eat the same as an adult portion and would have been a waste.Restaurant had no facility to offer diwali menu (priced as $49 for adults), at pricing of may be $25 for kids. Overall, it was ok.

Nicely located at the centre of North Bridge. Good food but the taste mostly designed for Westerners, this mean no original Indian flavour is there. If you already know the Indian taste it's not the place for you but if you are taking your non Indian friends then this is not a bad place.

Very nice food. Quite expensive but evening a little spoiled by a noisy party. Excellent service and well worth a revisit on a quieter night.

Food always good. Portions are ideal for 2 only

Date was 4 Nov 2020 Told wait staff I was Allergic to Cucumber & Watermelon (Anapylactic in fact) Reply was “ we don’t use”. 3rd dish served was kofta on a BED OF CUCUMBER Dish changed no apology, dessert served with CUBES OF WATERMELON,called waitress & told her “ that I told her originally that I’m allergic to watermelon “ her reply was “ sorry I forgot “. NOT GOOD ENOUGH. This can have serious consequences for people Wait staff NEED TO LISTEN & BE TRAINED Mike Grigg. Lesmurdie.

The food and presentation was amazing!!! Despite a pandemic, they delivered my food curbside in a timely manner. Really thankful I was able to enjoy amazing comfort food during this crazy time.

I constantly stop getting some food in this place. I like the fast customer service and well prepared dishes. Highly recommended.

We ordered a delivery. The order was prepared in timely manner (20-25 mins). We ordered chicken tandoori, goat meat, paneer korma and some bread. Everything was tasty, well cooked and portion was decent. Tandoori Chicken was one of the best I had in Massachusetts so far. I will order again.

Tried this spot already with my friend and I am addicted ever since. I love the awesome character and flavorful food and beverages. Highly recommended.

Amazingly good food. Pre covid we loved doing appetizers and beers at the bar. Great craft beers. Doing takeout for now. Can't wait to be back!

The best Indian food that I've had in the Boston area! A great option for takeout right now!

Good Indian food. Reasonably priced. If you sit in the back you can see live kitchen. Nice ambiance. A variety of drinks and cocktails at a reasonable price too.

All take out for now. Food quality is still amazing, staff is super accommodating.

The place offers a fantastic variety of delicious food. I love eating here. Employees are always kind, pricing is reasonable and the spot is always clean.

Delicious, they've always done a terrific job & the food is consistently delicious. We got the Paneer Korma w/rice & nan & Mango Lassi(like a creamy smoothy without ice-so tasty). Everything was completely delicious. We've ordered here many times and have gotten Chicken Tikka Masala, Lamb Korma, Paneer Tikka Masala & everything is so flavorful. It's very easy to order and now pickup is a breeze, you come at the estimated time, meet them outside the front entrance and they will put your order on the table right out front for you. It's safe and efficient and makes for a very easy pick up.

Punjab at Arlington Center offers curbside pickup, no-contact fooddelivery, and catering during the pandemic. PunjabArlington is happy to serve the finest Indian Food recipes from Northern India, where the owners were born. The same fresh ingredients, herbs, and spices used in the restaurant have been practiced by many generations of Punjabis. Two of my favorites are Punjab's Tandoori Mixed Grill and Methi Chicken Kadai (a special request item).

One of the only places I'll order Indian food from -- it even rivals my mom's homemade cooking! Punjab definitely has the best Indian food in this part of Mass, I highly recommend

Food was just ok.

My favorite Indian restaurant in Arlington!

We love their food! Go here for special family occasions. Doing pick-up these days.

Just tried takeout from Punjab for the first time and loved the food. Favorites were tender lamb chops, tandoori salmon and the korma. Highly recommend!

This site is my first choice site. Of all restaurants I know I love it most. I always suggests to my friends to go to visit this place. Whenever I feel like having a good supper, this place comes first to my mind. extremely good and all sorts of food and a large list of dishes.well mannered staff, and great vibes. Also, the price is reasonable. I suggest this spot with no hesitation.

I very much like their food and customer service, great location nearby to my home. The workers are always very nice. Will come back again.

Been coming here for years. Great Indian fare.

After hearing good things about this place we took a gamble and ordered a bunch of food for takeout. My wife is Indian, so I've had my fair share of good and bad Indian cuisine. I was pleasantly surprised at both how friendly the staff was while ordering and with all the food. The quality was top notch and the portion size for the curries was overly generous. I can't wait to go back and try some more of their food.

I don't know if it was just me, but the food was not good at all. Cauliflowers were hard and cold. Chicken didn't seem well cooked. Dry and yucky. Had no desi feel to it at all.

The customer service is regularly quick, fantastic ambience, super nice staff members. I will return again when I am in town.

Easy Pickup

I really like they spicy from these restaurant recommend for everyone who like a nice and taste spice food

I love the food here and having been coming for a few years. But their order management process was absolute mess for picking up. Over 30 min waiting on the curb for them to get it together.

I was in the area and tried takeout from Punjab for the first time. Everything I ordered was delicious...garlic naan, lamb samosa. Korma w/chicken and rice. Highly recommend. Hit the spot. So glad you were open.

Best Indian food I have had in MA.

Service was suuuper slow. It took us 60 min to get our food.

Delicious food, lovely setting, kind and prompt service. A favorite.

Mixed review. Probably the most authentic tandoori chicken available in the Northeast, would encourage everyone to give it a try. However I was really disappointed by their take on chicken biryani, there is a world of difference between chicken-rice and biryani which is apparent from their preparation. I would humbly request the owners to rename the dish. Overall a great restaurant just avoid the biryani.

Great food and great service!

Amazing place and delicious food

This is very good Indian in the Arlington center. Get ready- it's a very pretty atmosphere. Center space can be used for birthdays and food is also very nice.

The restaurant serves very delicious north indian food. We have been to this place multiple times and they never disappointed us. They accomodated our request to serve even after the kitchen was about to close. My favorite curries are Malai Kofta and Kadai Paneer.

I frequent this outstanding place from time to time since I love the good air that is outline this restaurant. The team is exceptionally attentive and well trained. The service is awfully efficient. Needless to say, the food they prepare is good. I frequent many times and I was always delighted. The payment is honest. I recommend this restaurant to all my friends.

The lamb dosa is delicious with mashed potatoes and diced lamb. Most places serve the lamb as ground but this was amazing. Soft and no fat! Priceless. The chicken vindaloo was great with white meat. It’s spicy, I ordered hot on a scale of 1-4 and I’m no wimp, wasabi bring it on but I was surprised. I’ve been in before and hot was not this so maybe it’s tonight. The bartender was awesome!

I have been to this place many times and always look forward to the visit. I have tried several Indian restaurants in the Boston area, this place certainly stands out. Their appetizers are filled with taste and I love their papri chaat. I am a fan of their navratan korma and naan. I have tried all of their naan options and all are good, especially the peshavari naan which has a sweet stuffing. After having the peshawari naan at other places I have to come appreciate this naan at this place even more. Even though they mainly specialize in North Indian cuisine, their dosa is commendable as well. Apart from that, I was impressed by the decor of the restaurant. If you are looking for a relaxed evening at a fine Indian restaurant, then this is the right place for you. The service can be improved though. They need a little more cheerful staff to match the food quality.

Great vegetarian options and outstanding Punjabi traditional dishes. I highly recommend their lamb.

Some of the most incredible food I have ever tasted . Every dish in the Street Food Adventure was delicious, perfectly portioned and a wonderful delight for the senses. The staff were extremely passionate and attentive. The ambiance both busy, bustling and also quiet depending on the time you go. 20 out of 10 for everything. A must visit.

Wow the food here is amazing. We were all so impressed, including my very fussy dad who loved it (he was super quiet chomping away the whole dinner). We had the butter chicken goat and fish curry and it was out of this world. We would definitely go back again!

The food is amazing! That I cannot deny - the flavours were there. I had a tasty beverage as well. The rating is more around the pricing and portion sizes. We ordered the potato starter which was 2 potatoes cut in two. We were hoping that would be the filler meal for 2 adults and a toddler. The mains were pretty small as well. All up the bill came to about $85 but the amount of food we ate could not justify that. I'd say it's perfect for initiate dates and celebrations.

Bad service, staff not very friendly. Also very sticky tables which, even after politely asking, the waitress refused to wipe, blaming it on the sanitizer!?! Not sure if the chef was having a bad night but the food was less then average... I had better goat curry at the takeaway next door to my house, and the prawns were dry and overcooked. We didn't t even finish our food. Overall a more than underwhelming food experience👎

Amazing food, decent service. Highly recommended!

Amazing food. Can't wait to try what they come up with next. Great value too. 5 share courses and we left completely full for only $40 pp!

Great India fusion food and amazing atmosphere! Loved the flavour profiles being served here. Try the pani puri (lentil bubble) shots. They are very tasty. The best part is that it's unlike a typical Indian restaurant. The menu is eclectic with quite a few familiar dishes presented and served with a twist. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Thank you Sauma chef and staff! What a fabulous vegetarian meal. The staff were polite, friendly and helpful. In addition, the chef came to our table to describe the dishes we would be eating and provided us with details of the cuisine including where they originated from. As a result of the combination of great food and excellent service we had an amazing experience. I would thoroughly recommend a visit to Sauma.

Really tasty food and friendly service. Very enjoyable meal thanks

The staff were too rude. We asked them a question and they told us that we cannot serve you. We’ve been waited for 30 min but had to leave because of their behaviour. We were very uncomfortable and felt sorry for their staff. Absolutely do not recommend here.

Very rude staff. Awful costumer service. After 40 minutes waiting in the queue they said we can't serve you.

We had the street food expérience for two and everything was amazing. The lamb and pork were tender and delicious, as well as the baramundi. We couldn't pick à favorite. Service was great as well. Our waitress was attentive and another staff member turned off the air con per my request because we were feeling cold. Overall it was à great dining expérience. I highly recommend it and would return again.

Nice food. Good serving size. Pleasant staff. All good.

We love indian food especially authentic south indian dishes. We were seated in a lovely corner seat and the service was amazing. Cocktails were tasty. For starters we had the waygu samosa and tandoori fish tikka, unreal flavors and could have had 3 more of each at this point. Had pumpkin curry and chicken curry for mains with the pumpkin curry a clear standout. Overall an amazing experience and we are planning our next trip to try other dishes. Yummmmm

Very nice. Will staffed, nice ambience with good food and cocktails. Lots of space with some common tables so easy to get a spot. Menu makes things sound a little more exotic than they taste (both food and cocktails), but otherwise still nice. Pani puri though, fantastic. And with tequila? A match made in heaven!

Fantastic food and service

Great food, amazing staff

The wait staff there are amazing

Awesome food experience.

Street food adventure absolutely wonderful

Great food, venue and variety of drinks.

Loved the food, the vibe, the service. Everything on point. Coming back to this place when I'm visiting Perth again. 😊

Great service and great food. Not cheap but reasonable as the food is really good. Good vegetarian section.

Amazing food and service. Only negative was that it was 150 for 3 ppl but even still its worth it

Good service and awesome food. Selection of beverage is great too.

BEST Indian in Perth. Have been 3 times and all has been scrumptious :)

Great dinner, great service, and a free show, thanks cops of Northbridge

Entrees were OK but the Aunty G's Chicken Curry was watery and tasteless, more like a mild casserole. Breast chicken was overcooked and dry. We both felt bloated and unwell after sharing one mains and a few entrees. We liked the lamb Samosas and the chilly squid with chorizo but based on our overall experience, we will not be coming back.

Good ambiance and nicely set up. Went with 5 others. Goat Curry was delicious all other food was OK, and I would say pricey for what it is. Service wasn't great. Menu had items listed as Dairy free, but then the same item in a feed me had yoghurt in it? Overall worth trying it out.

The food was good but not that great. We ordered kerala pork curry which was nowhere near to the actual pork curry in Kerala. Sauma was also innovative in introducing panipoori with tequila shots, which was good.Also, the cocktails are also good. Overall , a good party place to have a team dinner.

That's the second time I've been to Sauma and golly is it good!

Great location right near my work.

As always the food and atmosphere were great. However, what was not so great was being held for nearly 1hr whilst our 8.30pm table was made available. If we had been late i would have run the risk of forfeiting my deposit of $120. This delay impacted our night greatly as we missed friends elsewhere.

Amazing food

Our food was faultless. Can't wait to bring friends and family back.

Excellent food and service

Had another wonderful evening at Sauma couldn't have asked for more. Thank you to the staff who were so professional and accommodating. Drinks and food amazing. We will return soon.

Highly enjoyed our meal and everything tasted amazing. The staff were friendly and helpful and can happily say I'll be going back! thanks guys!

Visited Sauma for the third time and I am in love with the flavours . Absolutely loved the cocktails. The onion bhaji and the lamb ribs was delicious. Also had the chicken curry fish and dal which was a 5 star as well. Definitely going more often.

We just LOVED our meal at Sauma last night. We chose the Street Food Adventure set menu for 5 of us and we savoured every mouthful. So many exquisite flavours and textures. We particularly enjoyed the service. Our waiter Nathan was just fabulous and made the night even more enjoyable. Definitely recommend this wonderful restaurant in the heart of Northbridge.

Booked a table for 6 Saturday at 4PM we’re a little disappointed that we could only have the street eats menu before 5 pm and couldn’t wait and order at 5. As it turns out the 6 six of each chose a dish each and shared , everything was 10/10 the food was fantastic, I mean really really good Indian tapas. The table staff were no fun at all , had to basically go to the bar and order drinks etc rather than wait to be served at the table , there seemed to be a lot of table staff but we seemed invisible. And almost as soon as we had the last plate taken away the bill was thrust into my hand , couldn’t get us out quickly enough. Great looking place , the best food , Bar and table staff need work

It was nice to visit, only had drinks and desert. Nice atmosphere. I have not had dinner here but the smell of curry was wonderful

I had my birthday celebration at Sauma last night with my friends. We were a big group of 25 and everyone loved it. The food is just fabulous and the staff are amazing. The service was so good and the staff were extremely courteous. Thank you Sauma and all the fabulous staff especially Estelle and the manager Marie.

Another flavour sensation enjoyed via the Street Food Experience! Great service, sensational cocktails & delicious food!

Wow super impressed!! I love traditional Indian food, but this more contemporary street food Indian was incredible!! We went as a group of 8pax on a Saturday arvo for a late lunch & chose the Street Food Adventure for $55 per person....and it was outstanding!! We basically had the place to ourselves, so the service was amazing & we even put our on music on. The variety, portions, colours, flavours were like a symphony for your senses. Started off with the Pani Puri shots which were a flavour explosion in your mouth! Fave dish was the melt in your mouth Lamb Ribs. My other fave surprise dish was the Chargrilled Squid Salad. Now let's not forget the cocktails - Chilli Mojito, Tamarind Margarita, Pink Panther in Bollywood - liquid flavour sensations!! I don't know what more I can say apart from you NEED to go there - you won't be disappointed! I'll definitely be going back!

If your wanting to try new flavours this is the place. Tried the fries and was absolutely astonished at how they smelled and tasted! So interesting and unique. Next I tried the tomato sauce. Wow. So many flavours mixed into one.definitely recommend for adults but maybe not kids. They do offer a kids menu but food is all spiced up. Definitely a great place for dinner

Really nice atmosphere and a lot of space. There's choice on the menu for all diets: dairy free, gluten free, nut free, vegetarian. I picked the mushrooms as an entree because I wanted a small portion. I was expecting it to be tastier. But my friend grabbed the fish cooked in the banana peel and was happy with his choice 😋

We've been to Sauma on several occasions and have never been disappointed. The food is great, and the customer service whilst always good, was particularly friendly and helpful on our latest visit.

Booked for 9, before a show, so only had an hour to eat. Service was outstanding. Drinks order taken as soon as we sat down, and we decided quickly what to eat and all shared amazing dishes. So favoursome, everyone commented on how good the food was. We loved the wine and cocktails too. Our waiter was very attentive and informative to our questions. A fantastic night. Will definitely return to try more dishes. Thank you for the wonderful service.

The most delicious Gulab Jamun I’ve ever had! Some items were a bit hit and miss though ~ like the Samosa was not great and did not even come out hot. Onion bhaji, goat curry & naan bread was delicious though. The punch bowl was not worth it as it was 90% ice. Overall, a good experience.

Booked for a work dinner, staff were very helpful and accommodating. Our group was over 10 people so we chose the 'Street Food Adventure' set menu. We had heaps of dietary requirements and everyone was catered to. The food was incredible, really delicious. Space was nice and casual, with nice lighting. Service was great. Would 100% recommend and book again.

This was our first time at Sauma and boy did we love their food. The best LAMB RIBS and MANGO KULFI in Perth. Keep it up guys.

This has to be the funkiest Indian restaurant in Australia. Brilliant decor and atmosphere. Broad, varied and exceptionally good wine selection. Finally the food is an explosion of flavours cooked to perfection. One visit will not be enough because there is so much to try and be amazed. Can't wait until next time.

The food was really delicious…. A must try for Indians who want a fusion in the regular indian menu. The presentation and taste was soo good.

Had raita, onion and leek bhaji, palak paneer, banana leaf fish and garlic naan. Not so spicy so I guess it's adjusted to western flavour but all quite yum. Price is on expensive side but worth the money. Will go back again.

If visiting Perth, you must eat here! Cannot fault this amazing place. Firstly, the venue inside is stunning, with a few different areas to dine in. The staff are lovely and very attentive. It’s more of an upmarket Indian feed and the menu is different to your standard Indian venue, which makes it more exciting to try something a bit more out of your comfort zone, everything we ate was outstanding. This beats any Indian place we have in Melbourne. Can’t wait to visit again, even if it’s just for the naan bread

What a delight. First time dining here and will be back for sure! Incredible, perfectly balanced flavours, great atmosphere and service. The Pani Puri shots were so good we had to order more.

As always the food and service were amazing. We were a party of 5. 4 members enjoyed the Jumbo Thali with the Fish curry and the fried chicken being the most loved. In saying that, they loved the all the other dishes as well and were very satisfied. We also ordered the Lamb Ribs and the Onion and Cauliflower Bhagi from the Street Food menu and the Koftas for me as I am vegetarian. The food and the entire experience was as good as always. We cannot wait to return.

Street food menu was a fantastic, well priced way to make a meal more than a bit special. The Pani puri was a great way to begin and the dishes kept coming in a prompt manner. It was a noisy environment, so be aware, but apart from that it was really nice.

Jumbo Thali plate at Sauma easily fed 4 adults for lunch. Outstanding array of Keralan food. We adored all the curries and sambals and traditional dessert - will definitely return.

Fabulous time, hearty indian food, friendly staff and great service. I like their the Pani Puri shots

The service and food here are exceptional. The staff are friendly and amazing. In particular the chefs made me an item not on the menu. Paneer Lababdar. This is my favourite dish I discovered while in India. Thank you so much it was delicious. I'll be sure to reserve next time and request it especially!

Nice Indian restaurant with lots of smiles and quirks. Love the alcoholic pani puri. It's a hollow thin walled deep fried dough. It gets cracked at the top and usually a thin minty spicy concoction poured into the cracked top of ball. Enters your mouth straight... I have had that too... not only the conventional pani puri, I have had the alcoholic version too. Pretty darn good. Had the barramundi in banana leaf and palak paneer with jeera rice. The fish was fresh and additionally the banana leaf smell and taste enhance the taste of the barramundi. The palak paneeer was awesome and wholesome wth 'spinachy' goodness. Loved the cheese that came with the palak paneer. By the way, 'paneer' means cheese. The staff were so welcoming and smiley. Atmosphere was beautiful for people watching in Northbridge. Highly recommended for Indian food lovers with a quirky touch

The Street Food Adventure $60pp lunch deal is a scam. 4 people ordered this deal, $240 meal. For each ‘meal’ there was 1 piece of food per person, e.g you’re getting 1 rib each! If you bought each meal on the regular menu, it’d cost around $150 and you’d received the same amount of food for a group of 4!!! We only discovered this rip off because one person was ordering the same food from the regular menu and their serving was the same as our group order. BUYER BEWARE!
