Tried King of Curries around the corner from the better know Ruchi's after a recommendation from a…read moretaxi driver. Very basic decor and atmosphere with around 8 tables able to seat maybe 30 people tops. A basket of papadums was provided as we made our orders. They were light, crisp with had great bite of black pepper and surprisingly morish. We order a tandoori platter as a shared entree. Instead of the typical chicken breast found at so many Indian restaurants, there were four nicely flavoured pieces of chicken on the bone and a couple of seekh kebabs. The latter were well spiced and quite delicious. For mains we opted for a beef rang dang, chicken korma and dal mkahani with saffron rice and plain naan. My first impression was the dishes were a little on the small side but they turned out to be flavoursome and rich so we didn't feel underfed. We topped off the meal with gulaab jamun which is a dumpling soaked in cardamon syrup, and rasmalai which is paneer in a cardamon clotted cream. The restaurant is halal so all the milk based ingredients use soy. All very tasty and we felt we'd over indulged a bit by the end of the meal! Prices were a little high at $100 for three of us including a couple of mango lassis and soft drinks but we'll be back.

Finally dropped in with a close friend and was very pleasantly surprised. Good Indian food served with a smile, and Naan to die for. For those that way inclined, there's cricket on the TV on the wall. BYO with a minimal corkage. Worth repeat visits.

Like good sushi?...then this is a must visit…read more Located in Manuka this small eating house has been turning out great sushi for many years. There is limited inside seating, perhaps seating for 12 and approximately the same quota of seats for footpath dining however do not let this deter you. It has excellent take out and is well set up to cope with busy periods. It is common place to see long lunch times queues and I have been part of them. Service is very efficient and the wait is normally short. So how good are the sushi rolls? At least 8 out of 10, and my favourites include the salmon and avocado, the cooked tuna and crumbed prawn are delicious...actually they 13 variants are right up there. And there is more too....the vegetable and king prawn tempuras' are really tasty. The food is always so fresh, tasty and the quality is so consistently good.
