Reviews

  • Michael Boyer (The Hazy Squid)

Food was good however some big issues with the experience. Only one person serving the dine in so wait time large and not worth spending triple price on dine in compared to take away. Take away line was served for 40 min before we were even spoken to. Fortunately BYO available so we could have a drink. Would not recommend eating in the restaurant but $6 takeaway curry is a great deal. Food good without being amazing. We ate the butter chicken, lamb rogan josh and palak paneer.

Non of our family member liked the food here. Even the portion is too small. We ordered chickpea, it was in very watery consistency, no taste at all. Goat curry did not taste good either. It had a different smell. Garlic naan- that was the worst one I have ever had.

Ramen was a tremendous host. He welcomed us in with such warmth. Then came the food - absolutely tremendous. The value for money is outstanding. Incredible curries for an incredible price. If you need an Indian cuisine fix here in Melbourne, look no further folks! Absolutely delicious.

Had a very enjoyable meal there, portion size was good and food was very tasty and I think reasonably priced, $92 for four of us (we shared three dishes). Only issue was they are BYO only which we did not know so we went down the road to pick up some to drinks have with the meal. Would definitely go back. More

  • Nellerichal Sreeju

A very decent Indian restaurant near to home, I have tried a lot of the curries here and most of them are good, especially the potato eggplant. The one thing which I didn't like was the Gopi Manchurian - but to sweet. Their naan breads were delicious. The service was great too! Thank you.. …

Very disappointing. Ordered Kashmiri Naan, delivered Garlic Naan. Lamb Korma had lamb but not other ingredients on menu, eg cashew nuts. Sauce for main dishes watery. Poor value for money.

We ordered takeaway today. Very little chicken in the Butter chicken main. Lamb vindaloo had a watery sauce which had absolutely no heat to it at all. First experience here and likely our last.

  • Amanda Lyons

Tadka Hut has been here for a while now, and I think at first suffered a little from its location in an officey sort of area where people were looking for lighter, lunchier, faster sort of meals. however it has adapted to this really well

  • StayCentral Business

Worst service I have ever experienced. Several times we had to shout out to staff at the far end of the back kitchen to get some service. My friend had to walk back into the kitchen to try and find someone to open the bottle of wine after

  • Nas Kosanovic

Haven't ordered from these guys for a while but this used to be a go to for work lunch delivered. The $6 curries were always the perfect size for me and great value. Food always came hot. Probably the best buyer chicken I've had. I love
