Reviews of Indian at The Crescent
H.
Food was very yummy 😋 it’s great Indian restaurant with nice interiors.
B.
Incredible Food and Service. We had a bit of a circumstance where we weren't able to pick up our order in time before closing, however the level of professionalism and consideration demonstrated by the staff at Indian at The Crescent to get this resolved was unlike anything I have ever experienced from any restaurant in my life. I highly recommend.
L.
We just finished our take away order and we're blown away... delicious !!!! every bite full of favour and lots of meat. BY FAR THE BEST Indian flavours in Invercargill. And I get to eat left overs tomorrow 😋
E.
Traditional India cuisine, tasteful, good service and cozy environment of refectory. Offers special package at a certain time. Lunch combo is one of the best choice. My favourite restaurant for lunch once a week :) Excellent service Always miss the Chicken Malabari 😋
A.
Our first dine-in at an Indian restaurant in New Zealand. After long time we feel like our taste buds made us realize that we are from India. Awesome food, great hospitality, superb ambiance - overall a perfect place for food lovers. Surprisingly the Butter Naan here is so far the best that we ever had. I liked options in curries - mild, moderate and hot 🔥 options to choose from. Tandoori chicken was great. They got a chef with an exceptional balance of deliciousness and presentation skills. And finally, very affordable price for generous portions. We definitely recommend food lovers to pay a visit to this place.
H.
I mean it’s okay. I got delivery, onion bajee a bit dry . Garlic naan tasted okay burnt and no flavor I got the chickpea curry . Tasted like raw garlic and onions were also raw very watery I know it’s a tomato base but still no flavor apart from raw. First time I tried this place , but I’ll stick with Bombay.
n.
We were there for dinner and booked our table from first table.. that was our first time there but trust me this place is highly recommended. Love their hospitality specially one Chinese guy.. and food is too good. Thankyou for being soo awesome. :)
C.
Best curry in invercargill, here's what we ordered, $50, enough to feed two people for two nights easily. Even the vegetables looked and tasted like they were prepped and cooked with care. All curries gluten free. Reasonable delivery time considering it's likely one of the busiest nights of the silly season. Everything tasted divine. Not over salted (like some places seem to have started to do).
Cashew Nut Stir Paneer - wow tons of vegetables, a great vegetarian option.
Lamb Saagwala - great taste, heaps of meat and sauce. Of course tons of rice with the glu
Poppadoms with Chutney & Sauce - yay love the plentiful mini pots of sauce and chutney Onion Bhaji's - cooked just right. Perfect crunch on the outside and tasty veg combo on the inside
M.
Good place to eat indian food. The service was good. They did take quite long to bring out the food but the taste was worth the wait.
S.
Fast take away service. Loved the ambience.
R.
Awesome Food always as i been there today again with my family and friends. Fantastic authentic and traditional food.. Awesome staff and services in Indian at the crescent Restaurant in invercargill. Love it..

Chilli Paneer love it and specially Malai kofta, daal makhani my favorite . Great prices, delicious food always. Thanks Som Bhai , see you again soon.
P.
The best Indian Restaurant in Southland, we always come back! Excellent food & service!
Recommend the Tandoori mushrooms and the Koftas! A+
b.
Excellent meal suggested by amazing waitress..
L.
Very yummy vegetarian dish ,excellent service
L.
This is my favourite indian restaurant in invercargill. The curry is always good and actually has spice unlike other restaurants. I always get takeaway to deliver, but tonight it was 30 mins late. I just wish I would've gotten a call from the restaurant to let me know the food would be delivered at a much later time.
A.
Authentic Indian food with extra ordinary service. That's "Indian at the Crescent"
Clean restaurant atmosphere with extra clean kitchen and friendly staffs :)
If anyone feels like eating Indian food, this is your option. This is the only option. Go for it..Grab it.. You will never regret!
J.
Two nights running dinner from these guys. Tandoori chicken both nights for the starter then followed by a lamb biryani for the first night with and a lamb bhuna on the second night. Had the meals delivered, a one hour wait on the first night, it was a Monday and incredibly busy I’m told. Tuesday night was only 20 minutes. Back in few weeks when in town. 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
P.
Excellent service with great food.
Staff member Handy provided us with a pleasant experience. Definitely recommend
P.
The food is delicious and service is friendly and fast. The best Indian restaurant :)
Thank you Indian at the crescent
S.
Went on a recommendation. Great service & delicious food. Would definitely go again & recommend to others.
H.
I was disappointed when another Indian restaurant left the city and we haven't had it in months because of this. Thought we would try these guys and so pleased we did. They are absolutely fantastic! The meals were amazing and the service was exceptional. The mild butter chicken was great for hubby and the medium had great kick for me. Loved it! We will be back.
N.
Absolutely amazing!
We had tried every Indian restaurant in Invercargill and they were all just bowls of sugar.
Indian at the Crescents curry was bloody amazing and what an Indian curry should be. Perfect amount of spice and so much flavor!
Can't recommend them enough
s.
We did take away. Order was done promprtly on time. Loved Aloo paratha but fried rice was OK.
E.
I haven’t been home (India) in 4 years, dinning here today just reminded me of food back home. I’ve eaten at many Indian Restaurants, by far this has been the most authentic in taste. No added colour, no artificial flavours or sweetness. Their new Indo-Chinese is the BEST & a must try. A burst of different flavours. My taste buds were dancing.
A.
Great hospitality and delicious food. Best Indian restaurant in Invercargill.
J.
Consistently great food. Their chana masala in particular is fantastic.
B.
What an amazing meal. This has to be by far the best Indian food I've had in a long time! Highly recommended and will most definitely dine here again.
J.
The Chef is clearly passionate about delivering authentic Indian food to customers. My compliments! I had the Prawn Malabari. Delicious! Food is a few degrees hotter than at most Indian restaurants, so if it is your first time order a lower level of spiciness than you normally would. The lanterns make for a nice ambiance and wait staff are friendly.
R.
Went here for a celebratory lunch with my family. We all ordered the lunch special which is such bang for your buck. Along with the lunch specials we ordered mango lassi's each (best drink in the world) and onion bhajis to share. We were definitely full and had leftovers to take home. My youngest sister (8) ordered Butter chicken which was a nice creamy dish that wasn't too spicy for her so its perfect for kids. The friendly staff knew we were celebrating and gave us a complimentary chocolate naan to finish off which was amazing. Very tidy inside and full of smiles.
T.
Excellent tasty food perfect service couldn't complain about anything
A.
A very lovely place to have Indian cuisine. My butter chicken was amazing, best I have ever had. Our first time dining in here and the service was spot on. Have had takeaways from here on different occasions and never once been let down. Highly recommended.
A.
Absolutely stunning food. The last time i ever had some where near to authentic indian food was back in 2007-2008. Since then never found any restaurant which was authentic. Their curries were different and no added sugar or colour to their food. Their new experiment with Indo-Chinese cuisine is just kicking off in style. Reminds me of my time in Mumbai where street style hawker food was a must try. Only wished if this restaurant was in Queenstown. But saying this, we wouldn’t mind planning a day in Invercargill & Bluff as an excuse to relish their food time & again. Wish them all the very best. A must try for one & all
D.
Best Indian curry I've ever had!
We ordered Butter chicken and Madras. Delivered very quickly, amazing smell and taste, good portions!
Would definitely recommend the restaurant!
D.
I recommend this restaurant.
Beautiful old building and plenty of space.
Nice upbeat Indian music.
Lovely friendly waitresses, including Caelan who went out of her way to give us a great dining experience.
The food was really good.
Amazing entree, (mixed platter for two) had generous portions and wonderful flavors and variety. The onion bhaji and samosas were divine.
We ordered naan with potato, vegetables, chicken tikka and tandoori chicken - everything was perfect. Loved the vegetables, the flavour was amazing.
I'll be recommending Indian At the Crescent to my friends and family.
Thanks for a great meal.
G.
The best curry I’ve had from a restaurant in NZ.
c.

L.
Hands down some of the best indian food ive eaten in NZ. Excellent <3 One small thing, can be a bit cold inside so dress warm, its a huge cool room though.
L.
We had a lovely dinner here on Friday night. The restaurant was clearly busy but the service was still friendly and accommodating. Our delicious food was served quickly. Thank you for a very enjoyable dining experience.
S.
Really great food. Surpasses many Indian Restaurant I have been to.
The rogan Josh was excellent, but try the Malabari Chicken from Kerala. A unique taste which should satisfy a taste for something different.
G.
Generous takeaway portions, would recommend sharing! Great staff and quick service.
v.
Last night had takeout from this restaurant while staying in Invercargill and ordered 4 curries- paneer, Dal makhani, lamb Rogan Josh, kadai ckn all our curries was very very delicious with generous portions,I had such a delicious meal after a long time.Love you chef from Northland
J.
Sooo goood.
Curry and nans were delicious, flavors were well balanced and portion sizes were worth the money spent.
Easy parking right outside the restaurant. Warm and cozy atmosphere. Good friendly service.
5 stars highly recommend.
S.
Delightful staff who checked in regularly and always with a smile... and the food, wow! They made incredible vegan alternatives we had to return for more. Totally recommend!
C.
Very delicious, authentic tasting food. My family and I have had many enjoyable meals from here for both take away, and dine in. The restaurant has a great atmosphere, it is clean and kid friendly. It also has unique assets such as the temple room, vault room, and the light wall. An overall great place to dine in, or to order a take away meal.
L.
Mains were tasty but disappointed with the rice. Chalky and just underdone..
M.
Service was amazing food was perfect loved our date night here. My husband is the most fussy eaters and loved it. Yay thank you so much for a wonderful night.
M.
Great place, Very tasty food!!! Nice atmosphere and pleasant personnel made my evening. Butter chicken is out of heaven definitely recommend for all curry lovers!
B.
I have visited all Indian restaurants in Invercargill. By far this is the best Indian restaurant. Authentic curries and simply amazing flavors. Thanks for such a great experience 😊
F.
Please do come to this elegant restaurant. The food is delicious and the service is outstanding. The staff have gone above and beyond for us tonight so that we could dine in. Thank you so much for your kindness.
W.
Slow night, but service was top quality, manager chatted with us but appropriately left us to our meals before it became uncomfortable.
Meals were beautiful, flavours gorgeous, FULL bowl of rice delivered when we were on last spoon fulls of dishes, and a mild vs medium spiciness option available for those less tolerant of hot meals.
Wonderful inside interior and gently playing Indian music makes quite a perfect romantic or general night out offering.
A.
One of the best Indian restaurant I ever been.
genuine price And portion size moreover excellent food 🙂
C.
Good food and a helpful, friendly and engaging waitress.
s.
We got a takeaway delivered. It was absolutely delicious..!!!.I had the prawns and hubby had hot Madras lamb... Highly recommend this place and look forward to my next meal where I shall try another dish. I know I won't be disappointed.!!
Thank you guys...you made my night after lockdown...what a perfect choice that was😀
Ohhh did I mention the entree.. vegetarian samosas..tops....and garlic naan was to perfection.
M.
This is my go-to Indian restaurant. The staff are super friendly and helpful and the curries are amazing. There is a wide range of naan available and a wide range of curries and starters available.
I recommend that you try everything on the menu (not all at once of course!). I highly recommend the channa masala because it is the best channa masala I have ever had in Invercargill.
A.
Excellent meal and service! The restaurant is beautiful and warm and inviting. I was super impressed 👌
Y.
Outstanding service, extremely good value, spectacularly great food. The best Indian Food in Invercargill.
P.
Impressed with this venue. Open area but easy to talk. Good friendly service with very good ambience. Meal was amazing. Well balanced, good amount of meal and well cooked. Good value for money. Thank you for making the night memorable one.We'll be going back soon.
S.
My experience was an incredible one. Never felt that level of satisfaction with the very first bite of malai tikka. And, due to allium intolerance chef (customize) made for me an awesome curry out of special request. Strongly recommended. Great ambience and beautiful place with the level of perfection. Staff friendly and great food.
M.
Good quality food. Really value for money.
S.
Seriously great food.
Layers & layers of beautiful flavours.
Really puts many many Indian restaurants to shame.
The care taken is evident in every bite.
A must try.
The prawn malabari is outstanding with the lacha paratha naan.
R.
I came here with my boyfriend and his family, and it was lovely meal and service. The food was amazing and I really enjoyed Palak Paneer and the garlic naan. The service was great. A few days later we ordered their delivery service (while they advertise that you can do online ordering we had trouble with the website as this is definitely a new feature that hasn't been finalised, so I would recommend just placing an order over the phone), the service was faster than expected (it came in 30 minutes as opposed the the 45 minute wait we were expecting), the food was just as good as meals we had at the restaurant days prior. They also give you more than enough to eat, as I ended up having leftovers for breakfast the next day. A bit of a steep price point if you're a student like myself, but I would definitely recommend the place for a nice meal with family or friends.
m.
Currys and naans are so good not to mention excellent value for money. Excellent dining in experience and Excellent service and staff. definitely the best place in town if your after indian or keen for a good feed.
M.
Lovely place with warm and welcoming staff. Absolutely loved the food. Two days in Invercargill and we didn't dine anywhere else. :)
T.
We come here twice a week for lunch, for the lunch special. Honestly one of the best places for indian food in Invercargill (and we have tried them all). My parents visited me from Auckland and they were so impressed by the food here as well. Also great service and consistent.
T.
Delicious 🤤 Food and excellent service Highly recommend
M.
Great food, great service and was definitely value for money. Recommend the Lamb Rogan Josh. Will be.back for sure!
L.
I've gone twice for the lunch special: your choice of curry (no restrictions on ingredients), plus rice and naan for $13 (2/2018). Add a side of raita for $3.50, and it's a lovely lunch. Deliciously seasoned, a deep taste and very natural ingredients, I would venture to say.
It is true that food takes a while to arrive. But it is well worth the wait. It has a good atmosphere to have a chat while you wait--quiet, clean, and bright, even elegant. Very kind and professional service. Highly recommend for lunch, just a few steps down from the more commercial area of town.
T.
It was welcoming and service staff was really nice , specially Diana! Food was brilliant , highly recommended!!
M.
Purchased a vegetable jalfreeze, aloo gobi and butter chicken. I had not been back since the place rebranded, and was not disappointed. Delicious food, we enjoyed the flavors of all dishes and they chucked in a free chocolate dessert naan, very nice.
I had not had aloo gobi for ages, and really enjoyed it. Will return for a proper sit down meal.
R.
Excellent meal. Chose a different dish this time and still delicious
T.
