"So, this is a famous one among the Indian restaurants in Hamburg as they own an Indian store as well just attached to the restaurant. I have been here 3 times so far and the most recent experience was the best in terms of food, not that earlier ones were bad! : So you can actually expect to have some good Indian food here. I know its a major issue for anyone looking for Indian food abroad (or for any cuisine outside its home country for that matter! , as many places will not serve the taste people look for when they crave for Indian restaurant food. The proof I got last time when we tried 'chole bhature ' and the taste was just wow! We also had vegetarian thali which was great too, it had a paneer dish (cheese , a daal, a simple vegetarian curry, raita (salty yogurt mix , naan and rice so it actually had everything that a normal vegetarian person would order if not having thali, so I think the thali here is a very good and reasonable option. On earlier occasions I tried dosa, pakoras, daal and chilli paneer, not that all were excellent but good enough. Now coming to the not so good part which is the service here, well its simply below average. Probably that is the reason why it 's not crowded even though the taste is great. Looks like all waiters don 't know much about Indian food, they are not at all welcoming or enthusiastic and at end of the meal I am always in that moment of dilemma where we don 't want to tip the waiter because he didn 't do anything to deserve that but then we have to tip just to honour the chef 's efforts! I am a pure vegetarian and once when we went here in a group, I was about to eat non-vegetarian pakoras because the waitress who was serving us didn 't care to check if they are actually vegetarian pakoras, we literally asked her 4-5 times to confirm if they were veg and every time she nodded with a yes, but guess what they were actually not veg and she didn 't even bother to say a sorry. This place has great potential I feel but either they have to train their waiters or change their waiters!"
