Reviews of India Today
R.
Awesome authentic Indian mouthwatering food In New Plymouth, even kids want to go there again. Loved the ambience, special tea and food was so yum.
S.
Food is good and delicious but is definitely overpriced in my opinion. Wait time can definitely improve. Staff members are extremely friendly and welcoming. Customer serice is good. The place is cozy and has an authentic Indian ambience which releases a good vibe.
P.
Family of 10 ate there New Years Eve. Great menu available. We all chose different meals and the waiting staff answered our questions re ingredients and made suggestions as to what extras went with each dish. All meals came out at the same time and we all agreed they were very generous portions. So much so, several had to ask for containers to take some home.
A.
Visited on Saturday 21st May.
Great restaurant, great staff, great food.
Made even better when my initial "thimble" of Kingfisher was changed for beer in a decent sized glass!
I don't understand the negative comments.
We have eaten in restaurants all over the world and we cannot fault India Today in any way.
We'll be back.
U.
Real Indian food great place to Eat and Interior awsome ...

One of the best Indian restos in town. Great ambience and food. Starters are delicious and the main course never disappoints. A good business owner knows how a customer wants to be treated and the owner at India Today definitely ensures that you have a great time. Highly recommended if you are new to the Indian food paradise!
S.
We were in New Plymouth for a holiday and came to this place on a Tuesday, it had a number of people plus some people collecting takeaways. So we could tell it was a popular place to visit.
We enjoyed our meal and the food was good. The music was a tad on the the loud side and better co-ordination between the waitress was needed.
Overall if we are in New Plymouth again we will be back!
B.
Good service and tasty food. Great decor!
T.
The chicken tikka masala and chicken Briyani we had were delicious.

K.
I stopped in here on my way home to Wanganui. I can honestly say, the customer service was the most outstanding I’ve received anywhere. All the staff were very friendly and accomodating and made me very comfortable, the atmosphere of the restaurant was warm and inviting. The food was freshly prepared and piping hot, and stayed hot for the entire duration of my trip home. It was beautiful food, huge pieces of chicken and very generous portions. Definitely a new favourite!!!
B.
As authentic as an Indian restaurant can be,meals are always great.Service was pretty slow,but just opened a new upgraded restaurant!
P.
What a fabulous meal. Have travelled the world and had Indian food in many places, including India itself, and that has to be one of the best. Good atmosphere. Courteous staff. Good Kingfisher beer. Great food. What else do you need (good company). Highly recommended when visiting New Plymouth.
A.
Absolutely delicious food. Grandmas chicken hands down best curry ever. Lovely atmosphere and ataff were very attentive.
R.
Great food, excellent service. Exceptional memory of wait staff regarding orders for 11 guests with nothing recorded.
L.
Visited here between Christmas and new year and it was very busy. A lot of the other Indian restaurants seemed to have closed in the local area so everyone was trying to get in!
We managed to get a table and drinks but had to wait quite a while for food, it is well worth the wait. The staff and food are amazing and it’s lovely to have such an authentic curry with a good level of heat in it.
K.
This place is beautifully decorated, the staff are lovely and the food delicious. We arrived without a booking in the pouring rain and the restaurant was full. The staff sourced extra chairs to fit us in. Thank you so much.
H.
I've eaten a lot of Indian meals over the years, but who would have thought I'd have the best Indian meal I've ever had in New Plymouth? Great food, really good atmosphere, stylish not garish as many Indian restaurants are. Loved it.
J.
From the restaurant fitout, to the staff and meals, everything was excellent for our dinner last night. The goat curry special and cheese/garlic naan were outstanding. India Today is our new favourite Indian restaurant. Looks like more trips to New Plymouth.
M.
Yum food, amazing ambiance and cool crew
A.
My favourite Indian in NPL! Always great service & amazing food. Mango lassi, cheese & garlic naan are a must and any Indian dish are all delicious.
S.
Absolutely fantastic, a great place. Very good quality Indian food and authentic. I've been here many times on my trips to New Plymouth and come here everytime. Try it, its amazing *****
Z.
I have a minor obsession with quality Indian food, so it is fair so say that I am well-eaten in a number of restaurants around New Zealand. This is, by far, the best I have tasted and I am thrilled that it's in New Plymouth.
With staff that are friendly and accomodating, a restaurant that mixes popular Indian style with tasteful authenticity, and food that can only be described as sublime, you will not be disappointed at India Today.
You can taste the freshness in their food, which is my deal-breaker for your average Indian nosh and having had lunch there a number of times throughout the week I can safely say that the quality of food is never sacrificed.
I never regret the cost of a good curry and this is no exception. I would say, "I would eat there again," but that goes without saying.
J.
Just the best Indian food I have had ever. Staff were great. Service was great.
We are visitors to New Plymouth and I would highly recommend.
E.
Authentic taste and great ambiance.
K.
Service was friendly but painfully slow. Meal was okay but lacked the wow factor. I note this is New Plymouth's number 1 choice on another review platform so I shall go back to give it another shot!
S.
Really tasty aubergine curry, full of flavour not too much sauce. The medium could do with a little more heat.
B.
Traditional feel Indian restaurant. The staff were so lovely and helpful, great vegan options, and child friendly (they even made an extra mild special dish for my 5 year old who isn’t great with curry, she loved it!) Thank-you for making us feel so welcome, we will add you to our vegan friendly list of places to visit in New Plymouth!
p.
I visited this place for dinner as it was One of my friends birthday.. honestly this has been the best place for Indian food that I've eaten here in New Plymouth.. the staff and ambience was amazing.. the manager was very sweet and recommended me a good dish the service was really quick and staff were too good in their work
N.
Delish menu, perfect for sharing
K.
Oh my gosh where to start. We had our xmas work funtion there. The atmosphere was incredible and relaxing, the food was Amazing and well presented, my husband and i had the chefs special and omg was just great. Staff were very attentive and on the ball, very friendly..
So big applause for u all, u did amazing and ur food was amazing. thankyou for the best experience !
if i could give more then 5 stars i soo would !.
J.
There are 26 Indian Restaurants in New Plymouth and I have not visited very many, but, having spent a lot of time in India, I can confidently predict that you won't find better Southern India fare than at this restaurant. They have another location that is kind of a fast food place and not nearly as nice. The decor is very nice and often nice contemporary Indian music. I can personally vouch for their lamb biryani - I have eaten the same in Hyderabad and Bangalore and it was no better.
R.
Nicely decorated ,food was good but service was painfully slow. Had to wait for an hour to get the starter. Looks like they were busy with meeting the take away orders.
P.
This is fantastic well priced Genuine Indian cuisine. Menu offers loads of options and they will try hard to make your special requests happen. The Staff are fantastic. The restaurant can be very very busy on weekends so make sure to phone in and make a booking.
D.
A restaurant where you can taste a variety of Indian dishes. The atmosphere is good and the interior of the restaurant is also tidy. Lunch special is very good.
S.
Food was fantastic and service was brilliant. An excellent and reasonable Indian Restaurant.
C.
Food was good, but it was really busy and had to wait roughly 1 and a half hours for our mains.
E.
Just finished dinner with a big group, india today staff did such a great job catering for us all. A big thanks to our waiter Abhi who was very friendly and helpful, delicious food will definitely be back!
A.
I am a frequent diner at this restaurant. They have quite a varied menu, even to suit a spicy food novice as myself. The food is always of the highest quality and at a very reasonable price. Prompt and friendly service. Highly recommend you visit, you won't be disappointed.
L.
Fantastic food. Took the recommendations from our server Abhi and we weren’t disappointed. Awesome spot
B.
Excellent food, efficient service, reasonable prices, casual atmosphere but furnished nicely in traditional Indian character. Recommend the masala goat curry and the lamb saag. Bathroom even has proper towels in it! BYO is also available $8 corkage.
M.
It has pretty good food, but staff especially the lady owner is bit unfriendly. I guess they care more about their regular customers. I went there twice, second time bit better experience. I care more about the way staff treats you than the food, so might not be a suitable place for me.
M.
We go there regularly, and have taken big parties there too. The decor is fabulous, and the food is top quality, it has never let us down, and the staff are friendly and helpful. Best restaurant we have found in New Plymouth!
A.
Our experience was great from start to finish. Beautiful decor, attentive service and delicious food. Recommend the banquet maharash. Thank you Abhi for making our night so special.
J.

p.
This place has a good ambience..decorated with indian artistic decor..
The food is delicious, not too spicy, just the right bit. The meat is well cooked and the recipes are authentic indian.

This place is a must go, if you are craving for an Indian dinner or lunch.

F.
Outstanding meat free options. Eat here everytime I come to New Plymouth. Excellent and attentive service
P.
Friendly staff. Food good but not outstanding. Service a little slow despite not being overly busy. Overall an enjoyable meal
M.
Surprisingly good. I wouldn't normally choose Indian food, it is usually too overcooked, stewed and mushy for my taste. But there I was, walking around New Plymouth on a public holiday Monday evening. Most restaurants were closed. The India Today looks very inviting from the outside. Stepping in through the door I was immediately drawn in by the ambience, and the magic word 'Tandoori' - the only Indian style of Indian food that I have always enjoyed. I ordered a half Tandoori Chicken with Naan and with Saag Paneer. The chicken arrived sizzling on a hot iron plate on a bed of grilled vegetables and with traditional yoghurt. Delicious. The Saag Paneer was very good too (though it is a good example of an 'overcooked' and 'mushy' recipe).
The service was excellent. The wine list was good, and well matched to the food.
A very enjoyable dinner, thank you.
D.
