    This was some of the best Indian food we have ever had. I ordered a Madras and it was beautiful, as was everything else we ordered! If you are in Paphos I cannot recommend this place highly enough, you will not be disappointed with the quality of the food, the friendly, helpful staff or the price!

    Reasonably priced. Wonderful atmosphere. Helpful, polite, friendly and knowledgeable staff. Very helpful in selecting what we wanted and were conscientious of our dietary requirements too. The vegan Thali was fabulous. Thanks.

    This has got to be one of the best Indians we have ever had and we’re from Glasgow, home of the tikka masala! It was delish and the servers were so friendly and welcoming. We had the chicken pakora, chicken tikka and the Mumbai non-veg thali all together to share between us both and it was delicious. We went out our all inclusive for this our last meal before heading home and so very glad we did. What a delight. I’d recommend all day long!!! Thank you 🙏

    I could eat here every day! Super nice service, tasty food, amazingly baked naan bread and relatively nice prices too. Highly recommended! I had palak paneer my first night and chickpeas the other. Payment by card is no problem here. The music is also nice.

    A truly a delightful experience with incredibly flavorful food and polite staff. Started off with complimentary papadam and chutneys that were okay. For starters we tried the gobi manchurian and crispy veggies. Both were spicy, but flavorful. The Special Non-Vegetarian Thali was a highlight, with the lamb curry and butter chicken standing out with tender meats. While the masala dosa fell a bit short as it lacked any masala potato, the overall dining experience was wonderful. The restaurant's pleasant location added to the ambiance. I highly recommend this restaurant. Must try mango lassi, almost all the appetizers, any lamb curry. Tip for first timers: The thali can easily serve 2 people. So make sure to try different things from the menu. Also being on the main road, there is not parking nearby. You may need to park besides downtown park luxury hotel (100 metres from the restaurant)

    Why you gotta be so rude!? After seating we were ignored. The waiter seated other tables, brought them menus, took orders etc. completely ignored us. One of our group finally got up and asked for menus. He was told our food would take over an hour to prepare. We were not in a hurry so took the menus. Big mistake. The waiter continued to ignore us and only took our orders when one of our group again tracked him down. This went on all night even though the restaurant was 1/3 empty. Other diners came, ordered, were served, finished, paid and left whilst we sat ignored. Food tasted great but spoiled by rude service.

    Easily one of the best Indian restaurants I was at while traveling across the world. The staff is fantastic and the prices very fair for what you’ll get. Many vegetarian and even vegan dishes are available, and every special request of mine (such as changing a dish of my Thali because I didn’t like it the prior day) was accustomed immediately and professionally. I went the last three nights and will make sure I’ll come a few times more before I’ll be leaving Paphos. Highly (!) recommended!!

    I read these great reviews and we wondered could a curry be as good as the impressive reviews ? Well we was impressed, not only was the service FIRST CLASS but also without a doubt one of the best curries we have had, especially in Cyprus. I am a complete food connoisseur. I would have to say this curry is as good if not better than a few we have tried in brick lane London. Yes it doesn’t look like a typical Indian restaurant from the outside but it’s different and this is the lively part of paphos area, so it probably fits in well. Definitely a must if you like curries 😊

    A must try curry House if you're after a tasty, flavoursome and authentic Indian food experience. The poppadoms and pickles came out first as an appetiser. Top notch, good quality chutneys. Onion bajji next, again top notch served with mint yohgurt and a brown sauce which was delicious. Lamb Bhuna and plain naan for main and no words can express how good this was. Sheer perfection, tender chunks of lamb in a rich and fruity sauce..layer upon layer of flavours. 10/10. Highly recommended. Excellent service. If you love a curry you'll certainly NOT be disappointed!

    Hands down the best Indian we have ever had. The food here is just perfection, with great veggie and vegan options. We ate here twice and were blown away both times. Couldn’t ask for a better place for a relaxed meal and the service is exceptional. Wish this place was in London, cannot recommend highly enough!

  • 5/5 Lana G. 9 months ago on Google
    Loved the food, so nice that they have different thalies to choose from. And many vegetarian options. Nice flavours and you can choose how spicy you want the food. Definitely recommend going. The servers were very friendly.

    Absolutely delicious authentic Indian food. Our waiter was very helpful and friendly and made us feel quite welcome. I would highly recommended trying this restaurant. Good food and good portion size. Try it out for yourself believe me you will not be disappointed.

  • 5/5 Kim H. 1 year ago on Google
    This is a different but extremely tasty variation of curry. It s absolutely beautiful compared to the normal blander curries you would expect! Lots of variations and flavours, crisp vegatables which blew my mind.. Be prepared to be surprised, fantastic food all round street food for me 😋

  • 5/5 Sarah M. 1 year ago on Google
    Third time visiting Cyprus in 9 months and this place has consistently impressed us. Food cooked to perfection, friendly staff and great value for money. This is by far the best Indian restaurant I’ve eaten in. And one was Michelin Star. Hope to visit again soon.

  • 5/5 Olivia A. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing place. The food was beautiful and very well priced. The environment and staff were so friendly especially with children. Couldn't recommend this place enough. Will definitely eat here again. One of my favorite meals I've had in Paphos.

  • 5/5 Kamila D. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place, lovely owner. We felt at home. We got free snacks. The owner works really hard to provide the customers with delicious food. Don't let the inconspicuous appearance fool you. This is where you will eat the most delicious food in Paphos! Thanks again!

  • 4/5 Krishna S. 2 years ago on Google
    Decent place. I get why westerners like this place than indians cause it caters to their taste. I wouldn't go far in calling it absolutely authentic but compared to other places, it's decent enough.

  • 5/5 Rafaella V. 2 years ago on Google
    Very very good fresh indian food! Its cheap and has amazing starters too! - the last time I had masala dosa was in Malaysia and I was excited. I had it here and it was even better than the one I had in Malaysia. Quick service, very kind and friendly staff. 10000% recommended!

  • 3/5 bruce r. 2 years ago on Google
    Not sure why the reviews are top stars! My take! Poppadoms were very soft, actually soggy, I'm still chewing the Butter Naan. The dishes we ordered were below average taste, nothing touched the yeah I'll go back....Tip....when adding the gravy sauce to each dish add significant spices to the dish ordered.

  • 1/5 Sanjeev B. 2 years ago on Google
    Wanna throw up? Visit this restaurant. Horribly smelling papads, probably the oil used was from pre Corona times, arrogant/sarcastic owner or waiter will definitely spoil your visit, mood and time. In the first place the recipes aren’t Indian at all. They tasted somewhat a variant of authentic Indian. There are much better restaurants in the same neighbourhood.

  • 5/5 Jolita S. 1 year ago on Google
    First time we tried Indian cuisine and it was just perfect. The staff is extremely friendly, atmosphere is very cozy and the food is just another level. One of the best experiences we ever had! Thank you so much, will definitely come back. If you never had indian food before, don’t worry, the staff is extremely helpful!

  • 5/5 Franjo S. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the best Indian Restaurants I have been too. The best in Cyprus. The food was great and the personnel was very considerate. I would suggest taking sides over large portions so you can benefit from different tastes and spices. Since we ordered several spicy(hot) dishes, the cook made us a special sauce with the Naga pepper. Very special. The restaurant just has one lesser side. The busy road if you are eating outside.

  • 5/5 Luis R. 2 years ago on Google
    My partner and I underestimated this place but totally exceeded expectations. The food was so great and full of flavour. The gentleman who served us was also really nice plus they even served our food. If you’re looking for a good Indian in the Paphos area we would definitely recommend! Wish I ordered more!

😐 We ate here after all of the 5 star reviews, but left disappointed. The calamari was delicious, but the chicken was a little dry (with no sauce), as was the lamb.
