The first time I tried Sagar Indian is when they catered for a birthday party I attended, mainly finger foods such as samosas, and onion bhajji. The second visit to Sagar in Birkenhead, was a takeout meal, as I wanted to sample if they could out do our fave village curry restaurant. I ordered Butter Chicken, and Lamb Rogan Josh, and ofcourse poppadoms, and garlic naan to accompany. The dishes were both aromatic and spicy with flavour however seemed to lack the tidy slices of meat we always had from our other local. Instead I had large chunks of meat, which kind of put me off eating the meals. The Garlic Naan was huge! When I say massive I am not exaggerating at all. I could not tell whether we were just over served in size or if this was the norm. I just think that they did very well with the spices and amount of food; however I think they could better in presentation and slices of meat.

Despite the dingy appearance, Sagar is my favourite Indian restaurant. I was introduced to it by my sister about a year ago and despite some experimentation with other place I keep coming back to here. In fact, when our flat has an Indian night we now have to visit two Indian restaurant to pick up food as two flatmates love Sagar and two prefer another place. To be honest we don’t venture much past the classic kiwi butter chicken on most occasions, but I have tried the spinach and cheese based, Palak Paneer, which is a great option for vegetarians. Don’t let the interior fool you, this place is surprisingly good!
