Excellent food and service. Has been our go to Indian place for many years. Best curries, naan, entrees and all. Highly recommend. And the owner is an incredibly kind and humble person.

Good friendly service. The dosas were great probably amongst the best we had. Only thing was there was no toilet.

A sweet local Indian restaurant with a great range of dishes. I highly recommend the Chicken Tikka Masala, however all the Dosas dishes are also very delicious. Meals are average in price, depending on what you order but it works out to be about $25-$30pp. Rating this 4 stars as the decor and ambience is cold and not inviting.

Always at a good standard.. a bit pricey but quality ingredients used and I can tell as my stomach is happy the next day every time.. the old man there always serves with a smile and had become a friend due to us frequenting when we used to live there... probably one of the best Indian restaurants quality wise...

The masala dosas are a family favourite at Woodlands. We had the honour of hosting our engagement ceremony at the restaurant and the entire experience was memorable. The service, food and staff are all amazing. The food was something to remember and gives very homely vibes. All the staff members are very plesant and welcoming. We have always had a positive experience dining here. From entrees, mains to desserts, each item on the menu is unique to the restaurant and will not dissapoint. The gulab jamuns are by far the best offered at an Indian restaurant!

You guys should get off doordash. Second time we have ordered, its been confirmed by the restaurant we get notified the dasher had picked up our order only to receive a message saying your order has been cancelled. Just disappointing and frustrating as the food is good hence why we kept trying but now we are done.

Within less than 10 minutes of ordering, our food was delivered cooked to perfection. The portions were great and definitely satisfied us even when shared. - Great Service! Great Food! (Will have to come back to try out the dosas, deliciously described by one of the friendly staff)

Review №25

Was rather disappointed with the paper dosa take away recently ordered. The dosa was not the right texture and was hard and unpleasant on the palate. The sambals were cold and the sambar lacked flavour. The service though was great as usual - warm and kind. The other times weve eaten there have been fantastic! Hope you can keep up your standards during this challenging time. Wishing you the best.

Review №28

Restaurant is old and outdated.Delicious food but very small servings for expensive price. For $22 you get a butter chicken curry that probably equates to 3 tablespoons of the food...literally! Afterwards when I asked the owner for the receipt of our meal, he quickly turned his back to increase the prices of 3 out of 8 items to match whatever he was telling me. Dodgy act! Why stoop so low for a few extra dollars more? Where is the moral principle here? We will eat Indian cuisines in a food court next time for half the price and theyre just as tasty.

Pa
Review №29

Dosa and Idli with sambar taste authenic with lots of flavour the only downside is the price compared to the other places that sell Dosa and idli it is expensive almost double the price. Food taste good but price is a big factor you have to count in.

Firstly I asked the guy how big the portions are and he grabbed a bowl of curry from the people next to us with food still in the bowl and came to us and showed us. Secondly I Found hair in my rice and butter chicken over it. I poured at least half of the chicken and they only returned a bowl of rice with not extra chicken.Do not recommend!!!

Great food and amazing service. Paper Dosas and chutneys were delicious and fresh. Lassi and Papdi Chaat could be better. Prices could be more reasonable. Will be back for the dosas!

Dont bother to waste your money and time to ruin your taste buds. Waited for 40 mins before getting the worst Indian food ever had. They have special recipe for Palak Pander by removing the spinach and adding raw cream in tht. Little one asked why Dal Makhni is red😊

Review №67

Extremely rude customer service from what seemed like the owner. He publicly humiliated my dad in front of everyone at the restaurant just because he asked if he could use the toilet; my dad asked him twice over a period of 15 minutes and he was desperate to go and the owner kept saying that someone was in there. But after embarrassing my dad he goes and gets the key from the kitchen when its obvious theres only one door to the toilet and its right at the back which leads to the outside and no one came from there as we were sitting right next to it. He then proceeded to argue with my husband saying that my dad was rude...which we were confused about because my dad only asked him twice and the second time more urgently so as he was desperate, but he was never rude. He also was sarcastic to me when he told us to wait at the front for 5 minutes when there were rows of empty tables and couldve just asked us to grab a table or even apologised for the wait but instead he said out loud Im on the phone, i told you to wait!We only drank our mango lassi as it was served to us already and cancelled our food order and walked out.Do not recommend anyone coming here unless if you want to be embarrassed!

Food is nice, service is better than any other Indian restaurants. Only the problem is its distance. People living in Liverpool area does not have to worry about travel where as people living in the north of sydney and want to have a good south indian meal then they have to travel that far. But its worth travelling that far to have a nice food.

I go to Woodlands regularly and always enjoy the friendly service and Indian cuisine. They do deliver, and I am always having dosa with a mango lassi.Eating in is best as dosas are crisp, fresh and a delight to eat when right off the hotplate.Over the years have eaten the idli, biryani, tandoori chicken and indian sweets and we keep coming back for more.Prices are reasonable and kids are welcome.

Review №87

We just ate yesterday and the food was way below average. It was way too expensive for little bowl of curries which tasted like the paste was out of a can. Bhindhi tasted like it was frozen pack just mixed with the paste. All curries tasted the same. Seems like they used the same paste. There was only about 5 pieces of whole bhindi not even chopped properly. Im doubting those 5 star ratings.
