Unfortunately, it didn't live up to our expectations or the good reviews. Not everything described on the menu could be ordered. Our food arrived lukewarm and tasted like it had been made the day before and not freshly prepared. The taste was rather bland and not very seasoned. It was difficult to eat through. Service was prompt. The rooms themselves were decoratively furnished. At our hour, however, a delivery person seemed to be bringing something and he quickly got drunk at the guest table and disrupted the atmosphere with loud monologues. It also made an unprofessional impression. We came for lunch, maybe it's different in the evening

Great restaurant! All food was made fresh at the time we ordered to take away. We ordered Palak Paneer, Kottu Roti with beef and Dosa. The food was Original that reminded me of my vacation in Sri Lanka! To my surprise they also had string hoppers and egg hoppers that are not always available at Sri Lankan restaurants in Europe. :) I highly recomend this place!

We went for lunch, the ambience of the restaurant was good, staff was friendly and approachable. For starters we ordered vada which was tasty but undercooked from inside. For maincourse chicken Kothu roti which tasted wierd in some way and 4pc dosa, it seemed that they used pre mixed dosa batter. The price we paid was premium for what we had.

Well usually I never post any review but for this I alone with review I can help others. The owner is quite clever we asked for dosa but she told it's not available, only idli and roti were available. so we ordered 2 plates of idli and one veg kothu roti out of which 7 out of 10 idli is re heated clever play owner at the time I did forget to ask will same batter can be used for making dosa. Other than that kothu roti was not bad that doesn't mean it's good. Price is freaking high compared to the hotels in the similar area. Owner instead of replying to each review work on getting better food.

Was visiting the basel and had about 2 hrs wait to catch the next train. Found this place providing Indian food and especially Dosa which I wanted to try. So took a tram 1 and travelled about 5 stops to reach this place. The exploration didn't disappoint me. Ambience is good. Dosa, vada and filter coffee I had was awesome. The experience of taking order in familier language jn foreign country is reall excitement. The bill came around 45chf but that's worth the money. I recommend this place. Food consumed Masala Dosa, Coriander Dosa, Medha vada South Indian coffee

Ordered here recently, spent a total of 27 or 32 francs. The portion (especially the meat) was quite small with a chicken leg, instead of a yogurt sauce there was a small side salad and instead of 2 different curries there were some fried vegetables. I just didn't expect the absolute minimum that would be possible to make it look "similar" for the price, and then one thing was completely missing. Unfortunately, it's a shame. Will not order here again.

I can give 0 if this is possible. It's a purely Srilankan not Indian taste at all. I think they have to change the slogan to "pure taste of Srilanka". Was bit disappointed, probably I won't consider going there again.

I have had food from here on at least 5 occasions so far....and all the times it has been very, very good. Of course, Kothu Roti is superb, but I have enjoyed their chicken biryani, Indian pizzas (assorted ones) and the chicken spicy curry with parathas and yellow potatoes vegetables - they are extremely delicious ! Compliments to the entire team... And most importantly, their attitude towards their customers - makes one feel so welcome. Definitely, one of my favourites in Basel 👌 Keep it up !

The most recommended food I would say is Kutthu Roti. It was delicious. Biryani had meat a little rough to chew, may be this happened with me only. Others can share their experience too. However rice and chicken are good too. Ambience is good and the owner is well mannered. Thank you for a good time.

Don't trust the good reviews. They're all fakes. Those who are familiar with the Internet will see this immediately. Unfortunately I had redeemed a voucher. The food was subpar and there was no one there except us. The reservation board at the tables is just decorative. So that you have the feeling that the restaurant is well attended.

Mi esposo y yo fuimos a buscarla por un sabroso indio después de ver un par de reseñas decentes en Google, nunca más.El servicio fue amable, pero eso fue lo único decente del lugar. Francamente, no tengo ni idea de cómo sigue abierto.Pedimos 1 cordero y 1 plato de pollo y ambos fueron servidos con carne que claramente había sido arrojada en una salsa preparada en el último minuto. Sin sabor, sin especias, sin hierbas frescas, solo una baba suave y gelatinosa.El arroz estaba tibio y claramente no fresco, y el Naan estaba bien.Una comida básica para 2 con solo principal, 1 cerveza y 2 botellas de agua llegó a CHF 80, así que no es barata.Mi esposo trató de pagar la comida con su tarjeta Lunch Checks y me dijeron que no aceptaban esto. Luego señaló el letrero en la puerta y junto a la caja registradora que decía que sí y, de repente, la camarera "recordó" que sí aceptan cheques de almuerzo.Una comida espantosa y una pérdida total de dinero.Evitar.

never ever go to this restaurant, costly for such a a spoiled food. rude staff. My response: I visited this restaurant on 25 Aug, craving for Indian food. We ordered non-veg thali and dosa. When we asked what's included in non-veg thali the staff replied, "I don't know", mockingly smiled at us and walked away. Glad that non of us had any allergies. About the food, everything was served almost cold, may be warmed up in microwave oven or something, beef felt like rubber to chew. The only thing we manged eat without feeling weird was chicken curry, even the chutney served with dosa was cold and pale. I can understand this high pricing only if the food is freshly prepared, if the place look clean, and also being the fact that its in Switzerland. Non of them were met other than being in that country. Do you keep cooked food in fridge and serve when ordered by heating it, I would really like to know. Also they didn't bother to tell beforehand, its bottled water(served in an open vase) and charged 8 euros for water, last one I can understand, even though it was a surprise for us.

17. 07. 2019 Fuimos allí con expectativas positivas y dejamos de decir nunca más. Antes de ir al tatuaje de Basilea, decidimos por Spicy, llegamos temprano (19: 15) y pedimos un plato de Tandoori. Preguntamos por adelantado cuánto tiempo lleva saber que las cosas no pueden ser apresuradas. La camarera nos aseguró entre 20 y 30 minutos. A las 20:00, preguntamos cuánto tiempo llevaría, ya que no queríamos apresurar la buena comida. A las 20: 10 volvimos a preguntar y nos tranquilizaron solo unos minutos. Finalmente, el Plato llegó a las 20: 20, entre la pila de trozos de papas (un relleno de plato), sin una vista de ninguna carne como se indica en el menú, algunas piezas de pescado y ninguna vista del cordero. La camarera simplemente no era honesta, la comida no era lo que se describe en el menú. La iluminación del restaurante era defectuosa, parpadeaba constantemente las bombillas, no había luces en los baños, no había papel higiénico en las mujeres.

Disappointing. I had started going to this place since it newly opened, as it was one of the rare places to find Dosa. However, I see now that the prices have increased while the quality hasn't. Tried Masala Dosa and neither the sambhar nor the dosa and not even the Mango lassi tasted very good. Tap water is not available - which is a rarity considering drinkable water is so easily accessible everywhere in Switzerland. Overall, spacious restaurant with not so pleasant food or attitude.

Während andere Restaurants rund um dieses Hotel voll waren, war es dort ziemlich einsam. Die Kellnerin, die nebenher zu kochen schien, war sehr angenehm und freundlich. Trotzdem war die Atmosphäre nicht einladend. . . Das sollte durchaus als Warnung verstanden werden. Am Ende war es mein persönlicher Schwachpunkt in Bezug auf indisches Essen (Curry zu dünn, um naan zu tauchen und nicht lecker).
