The food was quite bland. We chose the goat curry without bones, or so we thought; it had way too many bones. The butter chicken sauce was OK but the chicken was a bunch of hard cubes. The lamb korma had no heat. The banana & lentil curry was pretty much just banana & lentil. The dessert was good. The service was excellent and the restaurant is very modern and open. Parking could be a problem as it is pretty close to the beach. Our Indian restaurants closer to home have spoilt us for this one.

I ordered chicken chettinad curry recently and it was a beautiful dish with coconut and spices, I ordered the mild because I underestimated my ability for heat, mild was very mild so if you like a bit of bite then go the medium at least. Chicken tikka is also a standout, very earthy flavours.

Our Ab&B host was gracious enough to take us out for dinner on our first night in Sydney. It was…read morehard to select what not to eat looking at the menu and knowing it was all vegetarian. We order Masala dosa, Dosadilla and 6 taste thali. The food was yummy and quantity is meant to be shared. Only disappointment, I had was in the sambhar served with masala dosa was actually the same daal served with thali. Besides, quantity of dal with dosa was mere the size of chutney- which took me by surprise. I felt that was a joke. But oh well! We wanted to try ice creams but it was almost time for closing. But. Gelatissimo is right across the place. Seating is very limited and signage is not very clear. We walked past it the first time. Parking could be a challenge, but so is for any restaurant on that street.

This place has become my new favourite Indian restaurant. I'm writing this review after visiting…read moreMaya Da Dhaba many times. I'm reluctant to go to restaurants that have long queues outside mainly because I hate waiting, but on a positive side it must mean that the cuisine inside is fabulously delicious. My advise is always make a booking for this place as it is very popular, especially at the weekends. I like this restaurant because of its consistent high standard of food, its taste and the friendly wait staff that will always make your dining experience a pleasure. While this place isn't at the top of the 'high end' Indian restaurants in Sydney, it certainly makes up for it by the quality and quantity of the food portions and most importantly the price. no wonder it can pride itself on being awarded the DIMMI People's Choice Award for 2016! The menu is full of vegetarian and non vegetarian choices. I have been slowly making my way through the menu and for this review I will list my favourite dishes/ menu items. On arrival you are offered water and a complimentary serve of Pappadums and yogurt mint sauce and another darker sauce that is tasty. A drink from the well stocked bar is also available however we brought our own bottles of wine. Corkage is $2.50 per person. For entree you cannot beat the Maya Da Dhaba Entree Platter for two ($22.90) consisting of Adraki Lamb Chops, Chicken Malai Tikka, Fish Tikka and Vegetable Samosa. If you need to make it for more people, this can be easily arranged through the wait staff. The Adraki Lamb Chops are my favourite,as they are marinated overnight with Kashmiri spices, garlic and ginger-skewered and then grilled in tandoor oven. Another favourite is the very tender Chicken Malai Tikka fillets marinated with cardamom, mace, cream, cheese, white pepper, garlic, black salt and then char-grilled in the tandoor. There are two main dishes that I can highly recommend from the specialities menu. They are: * Kadai Chicken which is cooked with capsicum, onions and tomatoes and finished with fresh coriander. ($16.90) * Chicken Jalfrezi - succulent chicken pieces cooked with tomatoes, onion and mixed vegetables and finished with lemon juice. A mild fragrant dish not to be missed! ($16.90) * Chicken Chettinad - boneless chicken fillets cooked in south Indian style with a touch of coconut cream, mustard seeds and curry leaves. ($16.90) Also everyone's favourite Butter Chicken is very popular choice. The chicken is cooked in a rich creamy, tomato based sauce with fragrant spices and finished with a drizzle of cream. ($16.90) Meat dishes - I love the Lamb Saagwala - the most tender lamb pieces cooked with fresh English spinach, fenugreek, onion and garlic. ($17.90) The restaurant offers a variety of Biryani Rice choices. I often go for the Kashmiri Pulao ($8.90) or the plain Pulao ($2.90) Add some tasty Naan breads or Roti to your meal and you have an Indian banquet that will have you satisfied and talking about its goodness until you visit again. I was treated by Navjit (the restaurant manager) to a taste of the Gulab Jamun. It was freshly made and so irresistibly sweet! This syrupy dessert is a must have if you have room for more! Thank you Navjit, Saini and Gary for looking after us every time we dine at your restaurant. See you again very soon!

The food has a slightly unusual taste; I found it less salty and somewhat undercooked, particularly the eggplant dish. The portions, especially the Dosa, felt small.

Well... you know when you order too much from an Indian restaurant and you get the leftovers packaged up to take away but when you go to eat said leftovers for lunch the next day (ok fine, breakfast) you can't bring yourself to do it because the grease sheen that has coated the plastic container and subsequently pooled into oil slicks atop your aloo tikki, chicken jhalfrieze and lamb roganjosh gives you night terrors in the daytime? (Phew. Breathe.) Well, that didn't happen the next day. Dare I say, it was even better the morning after as all the spices had really settled as they do, and it came out of the container without a Cat In The Hat-style signature calling card. We were very impressed by the vegetarian dishes, specifically the aloo gobi and dal tadka, although I could have had them both a touch spicier. But the standout was the fish curry, to which I leave you with this quote directly from their menu: "Panjim Fish Curry: Panjim on the konkan coast comes this beautiful recipe which only taste cant (sic) describe best." Note: Unfortunately you'll also pay for said deliciousness, entrees coming in from $6-$15 and mains from $14-20. But quality is much higher than your old go-to London standard Indian takeaway that you drunkenly hit on Brick Lane and then denied knowing anything about the day after (just me?) so it's certainly worth it in my book.
