"i love Parotta Combo alot. it tastes really good. but I paid extra for papad nad didn't revived it. but anyway I would always love to order 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."

"I ordered Dilli Ki Pav Bhaji with extra Pav Bhaji Bread. Bhaji was rich in texture and flavour, it would help to add some extra butter on the top. It was enough for 3 whole Pav Bhaji Bread and really filling for 2 people. I can't wait to try more items from their menu. "
"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."

"The food is so good I loved it a lot and I order Lamb Biryani and when I tell you that's food is so tasty Thankyou for the chefffffffffff"
"Really disappointed with this biryani. The masala was way overpowering — completely drowned out any actual flavor of the rice or meat, just an overwhelming punch of spice with no balance. The meat itself was the bigger issue though — it had an off, stale smell that put me off eating more than a few bites. Definitely didn't taste fresh.
On top of that, this didn't look anything like a proper dum biryani. No visible layering, no signature aroma or texture you'd expect from something actually cooked on dum — just looked like regular masala rice mixed with meat. For the price, I expected far better quality and authenticity. Won't be ordering again."

"Very disappointing experience at Swagat Spices! The sambar vada was rock hard, as if it had been microwaved for too long, and was almost impossible to chew or cut. The sambar was tasteless, and the chicken in the Chicken 65 biryani was poorly cooked. Extremely poor food quality and a complete waste of money. Would not recommend!"

"The Firdausi Korma was so much better than I ever anticipated. The lamb was lean, tender, high-quality, of generous portion and cooked to perfection. The flavour was a symphony. It was also, truly delicious. Whomever cooked it, is a class act! The Roti was to my taste as well, and crispy in part, which I very much favour. My only reservations: the Gulab Jamun was passable, but not exceptional and you provided no cutlery, and there was no way to request it and no serviette was provided. All in all, outstanding."
"Food wasso bland and not creamy at all and extremely oily, there were bones in my meal and they left massive chunks of chilli rather than dicing and mixing it in.
Very unimpressed and very over priced! Naan was small and flavourless
Would not recommend at all!"

"First Time visiting this restaurant. Really good food with flavourful tastes. The dishes were unlike I've ever had, definitely the best Indian restaurant in Melbourne.
I've visited many restaurants and this one beats every single one by far. Due to there being new owners and new management there are new and improved dishes. Being open for only 4 weeks is really impressive. The restaurant is extremely clean and the ambience is nice and calm with music playing in the background. I will definetly be visiting this place again and again. I would 100% recommend you to visit this place as well.
A few unheard of but amazing dishes that I would recommend would be the Parda Biryani, 4 Seasons Viral Chicken, The Chef's Specials, Haleem and of course biryani. Alongside the amazing food the Saudi champagne ( non - alcoholic ) drink was refreshing. The portions are also decent sized, enough to fill you up. The food is fresh and tastes like India.
MUST VISIT."
"My partner is Hyderabadi so we were happy to finally discover proper Hyderabadi food after a decade of living in Australia! We highly recommend the Malai Paya and Chicken 65 Wrap but everything we had was good. My partner's face lit up when we had dinner at their restaurant and we ordered again from Doordash the following day. Both times were superb! We also met the chef who was lovely and also from Hyderabad. We are not from Melbourne but we will definitely keep coming back whenever we are in town."

"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."

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."

"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. "

"Thaali Meal of the day Samosa Chaat generous servings, very tasty, great meal for great value, highly recommend"
"People are very harsh given the meal they're getting is $7.50 (slightly more via Doordash) and contains 3 curries, 2 naan, and rice. It's beyond generous. Naan at other places $4-5 each, but people still give 1 star. What a laugh. As a regular-sized woman, I normally get two meals out of this if I'm not starving. Yes, it's simple fare, more home-style cooking (think Lentil as Anything), but it's nutritious and it's never once been bad. If you want restaurant-style Indian food, go elsewhere--this is not it. But if you want hearty, simple, mostly bean curries with loads of breads at a mind-blowing price, OM is the one."
