"Quite possibly the best veggie curries I have ever tried! The Channa Pumpkin (GF) (Vegan) and Cauliflower Korma (GF)(VEGAN) were so tasty and packed with flavour. Really generous portions, and paired perfect with the Saffron Rice.
The Onion Bhaji (GF) was a standout too, super crunchy and well spiced, highly recommend pairing with the garlic sauce.
Already looking forward to our next order, very happy customers here!"
"Just tried this place for the first time, wow! Absolutely delicious Pumpkin Korma (GF)(VEGAN), generous serving for a small rice, and the delivery was so quick it was actually still hot. Loved the bargain Mango Chutney for a dollar too 😉 will be ordering again."

"The foo was amazing. I have ordered Gobi Manchurian and Veg Manchurian, which were so tasty. It was balanced with all the spices. "
"Biryani is way too salty. Tastes like salt is used to compensate for bland spice. The yoghurt is mixed with water to pad it out, I would prefer half the volume with no water. If I want quantity and salt over quality, I go to Macca's. Won't do this again. Samosa is ok, but not as good as Quality Grocery up the road, a bit over fried."

"I used to love Chatorey’s food, and have recommended it to many others, but this time it was unbelievably disappointing. I usually order the same dishes, so the difference was very noticeable. The Barra Tandoori Chicken was undercooked, and I ended up having to finish cooking it myself in the oven.I’m not sure if the chef has changed, but the Afgani Chicken Roll wasn’t prepared in the usual Afghani style at all and definitely not worth 29 bucks."

"Disappointing. chicken cheese keema naan Garlic Cheese Naan Chicken keema naan Kashmiri Naan Kalonji Naan were all chewy and horrible and super hot-, clearly microwaved. Badam Halwa was the same, microwaved so much it was split grainy and oily - and when it cooled down it was totally solid like toffee from being so hot. Nuggets and chips were okay but five nuggets and a huge portion of cheap chips to make it look like more. I don't believe anything is made fresh."

This is the first time the curry actually had more than 4 pieces of meat like most places disappoint with! This was packed with delicious juicy pieces of Chicken Mumtaz (Butter Chicken)! The flavours were fantastic!

"Very disappointed with the biryani. The whole bowl was mostly plain rice, with very little chicken and chicken masala. As you can see in the photo, the quantity of chicken was extremely less compared to the rice. Biryani should have a good balance of rice, chicken and masala, but this was basically a bowl of plain rice. Definitely not worth the money. Would not recommend it unless the quality and quantity improve."

"Veg Thali.. poor portion sizes and not very flavourful. I am hopeful this was a one off, but the dishes taste entirely premade, especially the Dahl and Paneer in the veg Thali. Somehow extra wet... and tasteless.
Paneer 65 ended up being the chicken 65. not sure how this happens. An Indian restaurant should be able to cater to vegetarians. It seems that on the google reviews, this has happened in the past, multiple times... It's incredibly bad service and careless to repeatedly make this mistake, ESPECIALLY when the vegetarian options are so extensive.
As a vegetarian, I would never eat here again."

"I ordered from your CBD restaurant through DoorDash and overall had a good experience. The food arrived well packed, fresh, and presentable. We ordered Gobi 65, Andhra Pradesh Vadai, and the South Indian Thali, and I appreciated the variety.
However, there were some issues with seasoning. The vadai was quite salty, while the rasam had no salt at all and tasted quite bland. A better balance in seasoning would really improve the overall taste of the meal.
Other than that, everything else was good and enjoyable. Thank you, and I look forward to ordering again."

"This place is hit or miss. Largely miss of late. I Used to like Chicken Schewzan Chowmein now there is barely any chicken in it.. it's just spiced up noodles. Not worth the money.
Taste is average, portion size is generous. Freshness is questionable. wouldn't order again."

"Daal and Rogan Josh were really delicious"
"So BAD. We ate at the restaurant a month ago and loved the food - the chicken was such good quality and literally fell apart with amazing flavours. We decided to order takeaway and more or less threw the whole lot apart from the naan bread - the chicken was disgusting, huge chunks full of gristle and cartilage, we didn't even eat it as it was so stomach turning. The flavours of the vindaloo were still nice but the meat just ruined the whole dish. The masala was exactly the same.
The samosas were huge - dense and dry, again just not what you'd expect from a delicate snack.
Such a waste of money and time - especially when your driver is on a push bike so it arrives cold.
You can't serve food of such poor quality - I'd like a refund. Really such a shame for it to be so inconsistent. "
