I suppose after reading all the reviews we were expecting a lot. The place was certainly busy. Service was fine, though no one offered to hang our coats and we were served by several different waiters. The tables are very close together with little space for people passing. The food was pleasant but not outstanding . The onion bhaji and... More

Always come here when in Wellington, have just been again recently. The $12 lunch is extremely good value. Being in a large.group we were able to sample all the different rice and bread selections which was great. Meal was divine quick turnaround friendly and attentive staff. Only thing is that sometimes you can be so close to another table you... More

Being from Birmingham in the UK I have eaten many a curry in my time. When arriving in Wellington my wife and I decided to splash out on a nicer looking curry house for a special occasion. In hindsight I would have expected to pay a lot more for the quality of food and service we received. I could go... More

Went there tonight and had to write a review, best Indian meal we have had probably ever. Staff are fantastic, 5 star service for a very reasonable price. Had chicken jalfrezi and the pork Goan, both perfectly spiced. Just yum. Totally recommend.

Took three family members out for dinners on a Monday , all lovers of Indian food. Chose the restaurant randomly from walking past. The service from the start was excellent. They checked if we had any time constraints and hung our coats for us. They explained the menu well and the cold beers were quickly on the table. We had... More

We always make a point of eating here whenever we are in Wellington. While it is not everything about a place, the service is second to none. Indian restaurants always offer a wide variety of vegetarian meals but here there is a good range of vegan options as well. Can't speak of the meat dishes but I'm sure they are... More

Went on a sunday and got jammed in between the waiter station and another table even tho there were other bigger tables but 2 people in a party they don't seem to care. So could hear every word spoken by table beside us. My partner loves... More

We were the ones making the noise though! Ravish was very accommodating when our number of diners kept changing and we were treated well and enjoyed the set 2 course dinner.

Best Indian meal I have had for a long time. We ducked in short of time before a show and were seated quickly, asked if we were under time restraints and served superbly. The staff were all very professional and even the trainee waitress was good. We ordered a Lamb Korma and a Rogan Josh. The meals were superb and... More
