One of the best Laksa places with a. Wide variety of other dishes. Can't really go wrong with anything on the menu. Family friendly, wish they served beer cause they got some snacks that would go just perfect with some drinks. I hope this place doesn't blow up, it is my go to place for a quick dinner.

Got takeaway from here for the first time. Was really busy with uber eats drivers but otherwise food came out at a very steady pace. The rainbow beef was absolutely amazing. Good meal sizes too. Will definitely be our go to place for Chinese food.

Ordered spicy kimchi pork belly Bento and spicy karaage. The service was pretty fast - under ten minutes for both. The portions, as can be seen from the photos, were VERY generous. This fed two people. The prices are also reasonable, considering the portion and taste. The service from the worker was outstanding, he was very friendly. Only downside is there was no music playing so the atmosphere felt a little quiet. Will definitely be back again!

✨ Thirty-one years strong and still authentic 🇮🇳, this local gem delivers rich, aromatic curries 🍛 that honour traditional flavours and craftsmanship 👨🍳. The spice balance 🌶️ feels thoughtful, not overpowering, while the setting remains warm and unpretentious 🕯️. Whether you’re in for chicken tikka 🍗 or a vegetarian korma 🥦, it’s true Indian comfort at its best!!

Great atmosphere....
Good customer service...
However the food lacks punch... Ordered fish and chips, they were made fresh, but the fish was oily, not crispy, maybe the batter could be a bit more thicker. The fish slice was huge though no complaints...
Personally I prefer a more crunchy and de-greased fish....
