Kadai Junction

This Tawa Indian restaurant is a gem in the suburbs! Worth the drive from Wellington added bonus is you will definitely get a car park.
The restaurant is not just Indian but North Indian, and the menu is reflective of authentic dishes from this region. A bonus for vegetarians about half the menu is Vegie options. Never fear though if you have friends that aren’t as keen on authentic spice levels they have some kormas and ye olde butter chicken as well.
My group ordered the vegetarian share platter and the non-​vegetarian share platter as starters and this fed our group of 7 well. There were samosas, onion bahji, pakora and tandoori chicken.
I got the chaana masala medium hot, and the heat did not fail to impress. It was the perfect level of heat, so if you are spice shy I would suggest ordering a bit down from what you might normally order. The chickpeas were well cooked and the size of the curry generous.
We shared the bread basket across the table which included cheese naan, garlic naan and roti. All cooked to perfection.
The BYO cost here is low (I think $ 4 per bottle) so we brought a number of bottles along. They have a number of Indian and other beers on the menu as well.
This place is really good value for money too, for 7 of us 2 courses and the cost of BYO (think 4+ bottles) the total came in under $ 200 which is pretty sweet!
So if Delhi is a bit far for you to travel for a delicious North Indian fare I reckon head down to Kadai Junction!

This, in my opinion, is the best Indian restaurant I have ever been to.
Yes, it’s a strong statement, but I’ve never tasted anything like it anywhere I’ve been.
Small and intimate, the service is consistently friendly and polite.
The food is incredible and everything seems to be made from scratch upon order — nothing seems reheated.
Prices are also fantastic with most dishes being $ 16.50.
I just can’t get enough of Kadai Junction and keep on going back for more, trying to cover everything from their extensive menu.
I couldn’t recommend it more!
