Daaku in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Quite possibly the best South Asian food we have eaten in the UK. Exceptional.

Amazing for vegans, veggies and meat eaters. The most richly layered, flavourful Indian food, so different to typical restaurant fare. Really outstanding, with seasonal dishes changing from week to week. If you see the leek dish, it’s wonderful. But the regular rice and bread are good staples, and very tasty

Absolutely incredible. Every dish, every drink, every side was absolutely perfect. We’ve been a few times before and will continue to go as often as we can.

Delicious dinner, perfect service and reasonably priced!

Absolutely lovely! Really kind staff, superb food and good value. Will be back with my extended family soon 💞

Amazing food I would recommend it to all, with warm welcome and great service

Such a great place to come and relax with family and friends. The food is always good and the service is friendly. We come here for celebrations and will come back.

Went there on Saturday night for my birthday..words can't really describe the food, it was the most well presented amazing and tasty Indian food I've experienced in my life..thank you so much..

Can't fault this place amazing food and amazing staff. The food is delicious and staff go above and beyond explaining how dishes are made . Will definitely be returning

The overriding feeling I am left with, having dined at Daaku for the first time, is just how wonderfully relaxed we all felt whilst we enjoyed our evening as a family. Upon entering the beautiful courtyard building, you are transported to another world, through the aromas, vibrant decorations and the gentle sounds of the thoughtfully put together play list. Everything is interesting and sense hightening; at once meditative and exciting. With their intentionally small menu (which changes every week) we still found it hard to decide as the descriptions of the dishes are all so enticing (we dined as two vegetarians and two meat eaters), so we ordered one of everything and were delighted with the result. It is said that 'we eat with our eyes', so if that is true, then our ocular hungers were immediately satisfied by the stunning presentation of the food. We chatted whilst we ate, with the staff being consistently friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. Ben, one of the owners and head chefs came to talk to our table (as they seem to with every table), which was a lovely touch as he was happy to answer our questions about their gorgeous food and restaurant decoration. We found the price to be very reasonable for the quality of the food and overall dining experience (quality and locally sourced ingredients clearly adding a further degree of excellence). If you're just looking for a massive menu from which you might just order a korma/tikka masala and smash back a pint of Singha, then Daaku might not (yet) be for you. However, if you want a true dining experience treat and for your expectations of Indian food to be redefined, then give Daaku a try! We'll be back for sure.

Amazing food. Amazing ambience. Lovely chef/owner, Jasmine. She would come to your table and ask you about the food and experience and have a chat. She certainly knows how to make her customers feel special. Such attention to detail to the interior of the restaurant. You can tell she has put her heart and soul into her business.

We had such a lovely dinner on our recent visit to Falmouth! Exceptional food with a lovely atmosphere, enhanced by Indian art and artifacts. Don’t miss this really good experience and food

The pork vindaloo might just be the best curry dish I have ever eaten. Packed full of pulled pork belly and with a rich and hot sauce that certainly let you know it was there, without brutally assaulting your mouth. The service was attentive and charming throughout. We had a lovely evening. Highly recommended.

Lovely locally run restaurant. The owners and staff went above and beyond to ensure that we felt welcome and enjoyed our meal. Thankyou!

My partner and I visited this place a couple days ago, had chilli prawn fry, butter chicken, burani pulao, dal, and kulcha. Everything tasted great but felt the portion sizes were a bit small. Every dish we've had tasted like they were made from fresh ingredients and care, but wouldn't say they were mind blowing. Looking forward to going there again to try different dishes.

We had four meals and all very good indeed. Nice amount of spice and heat and all tasty and looked great on the plates all of which were returned to the friendly staff wiped clean! Lovely place.

Absolutely outstanding. Authentic Indian food in Cornwall. Top quality service as well.

This restaurant is sensational! 😊👏. My family and I have just enjoyed a most incredible meal and memorable experience at this unique and magical restaurant in the centre of Falmouth. This is a hidden gem that is not to be missed. The menu is so unique and limited but this is what makes it special as you know everything on the menu is well thought out and fresh. The flavours are delicious and tantalising and the staff and owners are amazing adding a pleasant and personal touch to your dining experience. The decor and colours in the restaurant are so beautiful and uplifting. Highly recommended and not to be missed!

Overpriced, over staffed, tacky/ lazy decor, only 4 mains to choose from (not something I was aware of when I walked in). Honestly, good mains, really tasty, it was everything else that was lacking/ poorly executed.

Really really nice authentic curry. I like the fact the menu is limited. The owners/chefs came out at the end of the night to talk to the customers which was a really nice touch. Will definitely return next time I stay in Falmouth.

Stunning food and homely service

This is a real gem. Beautiful interior! Small menu but so thoughtfully put together. Everything we ate was just so fresh and delicious. Highly recommend. Second visit, loved it. So delicious

Amazing staff and delicious food ❤️

I recently dined at DAKU and had a delightful experience. The daal was rich and flavorful, complemented perfectly by the refreshing raita. The chapati was soft and served warm, making it a great accompaniment. The highlight of the meal was definitely the gajar ka halwa – a heavenly dessert that was not too sweet and had a wonderful blend of flavour’s and the surprise of the night was bitter gout pickle. The overall meal was a satisfying and authentic indian journey.

An amazing evening with just the most impeccable food. Great service, incredible flavours and a great laid back atmosphere

The team were soo attentive and lovely all night. They really helped make a special day even more memorable. The food was amazing as always and all 4 of us had a lovely evening. Thankyou

My husband and I had the most incredible meal at Daaku last night. Indian food is our very favourite and this restaurant had the most incredible, high quality and delicious food. We absolutely loved everything we ate and will be eating at Daaku frequently!!! We both highly recommend it to all!!!

Our first visit to Daaku and it did not disappoint! Although the menu wasn't packed with choice like other Indian restaurants, what they did have on offer was excellent! Definitely quality over quantity. Good size portions, reasonably priced, staff were lovely and friendly and the service was quick! We will definitely return, highly recommend!

Beautiful food such great flavours. A fantastic experience thank you xx

Ya just gotto go! Truly amazing and authentic💕

excellent food, service and atmosphere! glad to have another takeaway before it moved to Falmouth!

Authentic Indian food. Highly recommended for those who want homemade Indian food.

We have been eating Jas and Ben’s delicious food pretty much every single week for 2 years. This is, hands down, the best Indian food I’ve ever had outside of India. Everything is home-made, locally sourced and imaginatively created. Jasmine and Ben are the warmest and loveliest people and the kitchen team are all absolute characters. This place is a true gem.

Absolutely delicious, really fast service too. Would highly recommend the kala chana masala and samosa chaat, both very flavoursome.

Phenomenal! Delicious! Fresh and flavoursome! If you like Indian food, you just have to give Daaku a try. You will not be disappointed! Thank you for some of the most delicious Indian food I have ever had...and that was only from the vegan menu.

Charming people beautiful food.

We had our Christmas meal at Daaku on Thursday night. The food was out of this world. Ben, Jasmine and the team looked after our group superbly. Wonderful evening of authentic Indian cuisine that everyone enjoyed. So much so our group gave Jasmine and the kitchen staff a standing ovation at the end of the evening!

The food was amazing truly 5/5 thank you.

Excellent food and service. Will look forward to returning.

Amazing food, enjoyed every bite. Everybody was so welcoming and we will definitely come back for more!!!

Amazingly tasty and flavoursome food, lovely decor and friendly staff. Couldn't fault any of it and can't wait to go back! Thank you for a great night

Absolutely outstanding. Friendly happy team in a bright clean comfortable setting. The moment I entered the building, my nose told me it was going to be good and, the rest of my senses were not disappointed.

Fabulous find. Our first visit and we were blown away by the atmosphere, the staff and the food. The chapati and kulcha were outstanding. Having travelled in the Middle East and Asia we have struggled to find authentic traditional food .. until now. Definitely be back.

Amazing food !! We had a takeaway and this has to be one of the best examples of Indian cuisine. The food had a lovely depth of taste which made all the dishes so flavoursome. A definite must go !

In short, just go here. Location is a little out of the centre of town, but its so unique to eat in the old shipyard. The food and the staff were so good and so friendly. Special shout our to Becky, who was so sweet. Every dish looked, smelt and tasted fantastic. Would definitely go back again!

Fancied some Indian food and decided to try the place after seeing it on Google Maps - and it was certainly an experience that I felt compelled to write a review for!It’s not often you end up walking in a boatyard and having to go up stairs before sitting down, not that it was any trouble.Usually I just opt for something like murgh makhani/butter chicken, but I felt it was time to expand my horizons.The Chicken Methi Malai I eventually ordered (after soaking up some of the atmosphere first!) didn’t take long to arrive at all and I think it’s going to be among the best dishes I’ve had for along while. Felt it didn’t look like much at first but I actually didn’t manage to have room for dessert - having to make my own way back and all.Must admit I was a bit surprised when Jasmine and Ben came in and asked me if the food was alright. Needless to say the answer was yes and I enjoyed conversing with the both of them.Only issue I’d have is maybe with the pricing, but perhaps it is a case of you pay for what you get!

The restaurant is in the most unlikely location but it was the best meal of our trip to Falmouth. The food was absolutely delicious, as a vegan & my partner gluten free, it is not often we go out for a meal and both have great food but we were both catered for and thoroughly enjoyed it. Highly recommended!!

Had a fantastic family meal here whilst on holiday in Falmouth. So glad I booked it as it isn’t somewhere you just walk past! Staff were lovely and the chef/owner came to our table twice to check we were enjoying the food. We had butter chicken and pork vindaloo, both dishes were very good and the kids enjoyed it too. Would recommend, it’s worth a visit!

More than a restaurant, this was a culinary experience worth taking the time to find. They change the menu on a weekly basis and the curry is something to behold. I am a curry lover and would go so far to say the Beef Naga I had here last night was the best I have ever had. The small team were very welcoming and we will definitely be back! Thanks to Becki and rest of the team

The restaurant promises much but just doesn’t quite deliver .Food lovely, dessert lovely, service and ambiance very good……….butI really do want some form or starter with drinks and a very disappointing 1 was on offer I really do get what their proposition is but I really want startersWithout a starter it really becomes a bit like fast food Portions a little smallI just think it’s a little overpriced for what it isI will return though

I have wanted to visit Daaku for months but understandably they are very busy so I had great anticipation for our first visit. Wow! We were certainly not disappointed. From the first welcome to the introduction to the menu and wonderful recital of Indian history from Jasmine, we were totally entertained. And then we get to to the food! Forget any preconceived notions of “British Indian” curry houses, Daaku’s food is wonderfully authentic and the attention to detail is incredible. We had a selection of most of the menu, sharing between four family members. Each dish was totally different, no hint of a base curry made up to serve numerous curries. All stunning, with the stars of the show being the Naga beef and the Tarka Dhal. The sweet selection to follow were equally special.A final word to the gin cocktails. Wonderfully aromatic and complementary to the food.Outstanding. If you ever get the chance, book a table and enjoy a unique experience.Good luck to Jasmine, Ben, and the team on their new venture in town.

We booked Daaku for an evening during our week in Cornwall based on the amazing reviews - and we weren't disappointed! Absolutely love the decor and atmosphere, and most importantly, the beautiful food. We had the Samosa Chat starter, Chicken Dopiaza and Kaddu Chana Masala. I understand they change the menu weekly, but these dishes were amazing!It was also lovely to talk to the chef who occasionally did the rounds to chat to everyone after their meal and answer any questions - a really nice touch. Would highly recommend if you're in the Falmouth or Helston area!

The location is a little unusual but don’t be put off - the upstairs restaurant is lovely and the welcome very warm with attentive service. The small menu was pleasingly different to any other Indian restaurant we have eaten at and our meal was delicious. We don’t normally post reviews but enjoyed this restaurant so much we felt we should.

A gem, tucked away in the corner of a boatyard. You need to book as they have limited seating, but the food is wonderful, as is the service.

Visited Daaku last night, for our wedding anniversary, on the basis of the overwhelming positive reviews. And we were not disappointed. It really is a case of believe the hype. Start with a unique setting, in a boatyard. Great dining room. Both of these just scene setters for the wonderful food. Don’t expect a menu starting at Korma, and ending at Vindaloo or some crazy heat challenge. The menu is short, but it’s enough. We shared Matar Kachori to start, pastry balls stuffed with spiced roasted peas. The good lady opted for Butter Chicken - rich sauce loaded with tender chicken. Best she has had, and she’s tried it a few places. Been a very long time since I ordered a vindaloo. The overpowering heat is not my thing at all. But, after a discussion with a waiter who seemed to have tried everything on the menu, I went with Goan Pork Vindaloo. Slow cooked pork belly, came out as a pulled pork texture curry, in a rich sauce. Bit of heat in there somewhere, but enhanced rather than killed the meat. Plain and apricot pilau, and chapati finished our table. We ate the lot, and had room for a trio of sweets to finish.An original restaurant, highly recommended.

What a fabulous place... We managed to get squeezed in last night, and from the very warm greeting from Jasmin and her staff, to the delicious sweets we took away, it was a great experience. Its a lovely, intimate space, with hugely colourful decoration. With a small but perfectly formed menu (that regularly chenges) the food was explained to us by Jasmin before she went back to the kitchen to cook it. Service was quick, efficient attentive. The food was all absolutely delicious... fragrant, flavoursome and interesting. I cannot recommend it highly enough... And I'll be back for take away too!

Our family thoroughly enjoyed this gem of an Indian, beautiful fresh flavoured. We enjoyed a mix of vegan, veggie and meat dishes with unusual and delicious sides!The carrot pudding is delightfully decadent and even though we were so full, it still slithered down quite nicely!Wish we lived closer we’d be back all of the time!

Daaku is located in a rather funky boat yard (Islington Wharf) in Penryn. It is an appropriate location as the Daaku is a type of lawless bandit found in the remote regions of India.The staff and the food were exceptional. Do not expect the gargantuan menu nor the cream laced Indian dishes you find in most U.K. Indian restaurants. The menu changes weekly and the Cornish Indian dishes are prepared from local seasonal ingredients. We had the butter chicken - chicken cooked in a light mild sauce, the vegetable main - potatoes, beets, carrots……in a more fiery sauce, a side dish of dal with sea vegetables like samphire, raita and chapatis. Each dish was unique and full of flavour.I can’t wait to return to the area for another meal at Daaku.

Yet another fabulous meal from the lovely people at Daaku. An intriguing starter that encompassed, comfort food, a dash of spice and a pomegranate zing. Followed by beautifully tender Punjabi Lamb with saffron infused pilau rice with crunchy nuts. With the chilli and garlic bread this was a perfect meal in a wonderfully colourful setting. I would have no hesitation recommending this restaurant to any fan of Indian food (apart from adding to their popularity and making it difficult to book a table)! PS the Pork Vindaloo I had about a month ago was unbelievably tasty. Keep up the good work!

We are so lucky to have such a gem on our doorstep. Yet again our takeaway on Saturday evening exceeded our expectations. We like to support local businesses and share their view of eating seasonally and locally. They source high quality local produce and cook the most amazing multi layered and tasty food that you will find . We especially like lamb and the Punjabi lamb was exceptional. The portions are more than adequate. We like the idea of a small menu that is cooked with care and attention and changes weekly. A small family business Jasmine and Ben provide fantastic food with friendly service. We will be back.

Unique, characterful and outstanding in a fantastically quirky location. We looked out across the boat hard (yard?) in which it’s nestled and enjoyed excellent food and friendly service. A lady from India on an adjacent table declared it the best in Cornwall!

Lovely, authentic and absolutely delicious!! Jasmin and Ben (the owners) and the rest of the team made sure we had a splendid evening. The food is phenomenal, and Ben kindly took some time away from the kitchen to share his expertise and secrets with us. Wouldn’t look any further if you’re up for a brilliant experience.

I’m originally from London and my partner has travelled extensively in India so the bar was pretty high going in. We’ve had many disappointing “Indian” meals in Falmouth, so although the bar was high, we weren’t expecting much. Boy were we wrong! The food was not only beautifully presented, the depth and layering of the flavours were exceptional. Coupled with the warm welcome, intimate setting and attentive hosting… I can’t rate this restaurant highly enough.

A thoroughly enjoyable experience and a must try if you are visiting! We were blown away by the food, service and atmosphere in the restaurant. It was some of the best Indian food that I’ve ever eaten and there were loads of absolutely delicious vegan options too. Jasmine and Ben were lovely, friendly and attentive. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely be back next time we visit! We also loved that the menu changes on a weekly basis based on ingredients seasonality which is a really lovely touch. Would highly recommended!

I booked for a takeaway slot a week ago after doing some research. Holidays can be a bit bland food wise so we always love a bit of spice. Daaku, it’s an adventure to find it in the boatyard but you can follow your nose to the delicious smells. A local chap was coming out with his takeaway and said ‘You won’t be disappointed’. We picked up our order, they are very organised, and had a nosy in the kitchen window. The chefs were really open and happy to let us see what they were doing which was lovely. The food (a mixture from the menu from chutneys to Punjabi Lamb to name a few) were aromatically delicious, perfectly spiced and devoured with absolute pleasure by kid and adults. A very special find. Thank you.

I have travelled in India and Sri Lanka a fair amount, and love the variety and depth of flavour of food from these two unique places. I have also worked in Manchester, and experienced many meals on the famed Curry Mile in Rusholme. Now the food there is good but lacks the authenticity that Daaku achieve. Their cuisine is the best I have tasted outside of India and Sri Lanka. A careful fusion of British and Indian. The spice combinations work wonderfully and the dishes equally complement each other. There is a complexity to their dishes and your taste buds are treated to a sensational journey. Ben and Jasmine work hard to secure the best of local Cornish produce, and their efforts are well rewarded with what they create.

Absolutely exceptional on every level! The restaurant is beautifully decorated, the staff fantastic and the food is absolutely incredible! We had an amazing meal. Both Jas and Ben were lovely as are the rest of the team. Thank you for the effort and love you have clearly put into this place. We had a walk around Penryn beforehand. Don’t miss its quaint high street and clock tower. It’s more than the main road that runs through it - definitely worth a look around.

What an amazing find. A wonderful Indian restaurant using local ingredients creating wonderful food based on what is fresh in the markets that day. A real local find in an evocative space at the back of a boat yard!

This is the best Indian food in the UK or probably one of the best Indian meals I've eaten outside India. Authentic home cooked food. Tasteful Rajasthani decor. Warmest host. Friendly staff. This isn't just a restaurant, it's an experience. And it isn't overpriced at all! Absolutely recommend this place to anyone visiting Cornwall :-)

I've been lucky enough to dine twice so far at Daaku and have been recommending it to friends as this is some of the best food I have eaten recently. I love the ethos of the small business and the delightful interior along with the lovely hosting. A small menu for sure but one that changes with the seasonal produce available. Definitely NOT over-hyped. If you want chicken tikka masala or korma then maybe don't book here but if you want tasty, beautifully-spiced and authentic food then absolutely DO!

A warm & genuine welcome was followed by superb food, served attentively & in a relaxed & convivial atmosphere. A real gem of a restaurant. Highly recommended.

Daaku never disappoints, such amazing flavours. It's not often you find an Indian restaurant (in the UK) that makes food as tasty and authentic as this. I would highly recommend.

We recently visited Daaku for a meal with friends. The communication for the booking was spot on and so quick. The place was busy but the service was quick. I chose the beef massaman curry which was utterly unreal. Nobody wanted to share their mains with others in the group as we were just loving every mouthful! I am still dreaming about it a week later. Ben was very informative and even told us the secret to the recipe. The ingredients are all locally sourced and used inventively. The staff are all wonderful and we have booked a takeaway for tonight to make sure it wasn’t all a dream.

Our expectations were high based on the reviews and we were aware the menu was limited. The restaurant is upstairs above what looks like a boatyard and roasting hot on a warm summers day. The Aloo chaat starter was nice albeit a very very small portion for £6 each and not value for money and was the only starter available. Between us ( 2 adults and 2 teenagers) we had 5 main dishes. I had Punjabi lamb which was nice but under seasoned at an eye watering £18.95. My daughter had channa masala which reminded me of a packet masala mix recipe I have tried and over powered by a rose water flavour. She usually loves channa masala but all she managed was a few spoonfuls and it was revolting. The other 2 had what would be described as a West Indian Jerk chicken with a callaloo sauce.(very strange on an Indian menu) It was 2 chicken legs coated in spices and baked and a bowl full of what can only be described as an awful green soup which didn't taste of anything. We couldn't understand why a runny watery bowl of liquid could go with baked chicken legs. The tarka dhal was nice and everyone liked that. To accompany the meal I had Kulcha which is a cross between a naan and a paratha which was lovely but very small and the others had chapatis which were also very small. We had to order more chapatis as they were no more than the size of a side plate. Including 1 cider and 2 cokes the bill came to an eye watering £116. I was expecting it to be expensive and was willing to accept it as the reviews and hype made it sound exceptional. We're from the Birmingham area so maybe we've been spoilt as the meal would have cost around half where we're from and the choice would have been greater. It's a husband and wife team and they were very pleasant in pleasant surroundings but it looks like they are trying to establish a business and can only cook a few things at a time. I'm Indian and cook a fair bit so know what's what in an Indian kitchen and sadly they have a long way to go to get this right. If you like your curries you will be disappointed unfortunately but if you want a pleasant evening in nice surroundings and don't know what a nice tastying dish is then this is your place. No idea who wrote those great reviews but maybe it was different on a different day.

What an amazing place looks awesome tastes amazing, couldn't ask for more. And the place looks awesome

Authentic & delicious food, colourful ambience and warm hospitality from the staff. All round great Indian dining experience! Would definitely visit again :)

Delicious and authentic Indian food, loved the breads. The children were made welcome, lovely relaxed vibe. The chef came to check we were happy, and the view overlooking the harbour is a bonus.

Daaku has become a firm favourite for our family and we order on a very regular basis. Whether we have a date night takeaway for two or place an order for the whole family, we are always incredibly pleased with the food. This is not the same as a regular curry house. The menu changes weekly and the the flavours are sensational. Jas and Ben are so attentive and the children love to come to collect to say hello to the Daaku team. We would highly recommend to any curry lover to give this place a go!

Loved this hidden gem! Indian food that tastes like it was made in someone’s house rather than a restaurant. Beautiful decor (although we got a takeaway) and friendly, obliging staff. A must visit if you are in the area.

We popped by this wonderful restaurant after reading amazing reviews, hoping we might be in luck of a takeaway. The team at Daaku were incredibly welcoming and really helpful in choosing our dishes. The food was really excellent, absolutely delicious, we all agreed possibly the best takeaway we’ve ever had. We would love to return. Thank you.

Friendly staff on arrival and throughout the meal, with the chef coming out to introduce herself and explain the menu and that the dishes could be made hotter/milder. Limited choice on the menu however this was not an issue as everything is cooked fresh and local and there was enough variety for everyone. Good size portions and the flavours were amazing!! Exquisite food, lovely restaurant/ambience and staff who pay attention to detail. If you are going to Falmouth/Penryn, definitely pay Daaku a visit!

We enjoyed an excellent meal here this evening. Staff were friendly and it was nice to see the chefs so engaged with the customers. We liked the emphasis on local produce and look forward to visiting here again in the future! Something very different to anything else we had on our holiday.

Little gem in Falmouth! Brilliant place with very Indian decor and really delicious authentic Indian food. They have a small menu which changes every week. This way they ensure we get freshly cooked food made with fresh local produce. To top it all, the service was great. Jasmine also gave valuable inputs on things to do and see around. Would highly recommend this restaurant.

This was literally the best curry I have ever tasted! The flavours were unbelievable and I’m so sad we live so far away, otherwise I would certainly be a regular! The breads were also soooooo tasty! Cannot recommend this place enough!

We used to eat at this place quite often and it was great but for some reason the quality of the food seems to be going down lately... To the point when we're thinking of finding a new place for dining.

Superb Indian Food set in an unique setting. Excellent hosts who clearly had a passion for the food they cooked. They modified each dish to our liking & took time to describe each dish as it was truly home Indian cooking. Best restaurant we went to the Cornwall!

Easily the best Indian I’ve ever had and probably the most tastiest food I’ve had. Everything is fresh and made there and then. Staff are amazing and friendly it’s a shame its hidden away the whole of Cornwall need to know about this place. When I next visit I will certainly be coming back. Thank you for the best meal this is a highlight of our week away for sure.

Superb husband and wife team cooking lovely fresh food with amazing flavours! Cute venue and decor, with a fabulous view! Extremely reasonable prices! What a find! Thank you!

This was by far the best Indian food I have had in years and years. Amazing paneer and pineapple starter. Incredible beef curry, beautiful breads, lovely service. Perfect. Thanks Jasmine and Ben. See you next year. David x

We booked dinner based on other reviews and it turned out to be the best meal we had all week. The restaurant is in a small space in a working boatyard, but once you walk in, you're immediately at ease. The atmosphere is welcoming, the staff is friendly and the decor is colorful and clean. The chef/owners (husband and wife) made time to check on us personally to make sure we enjoyed the meal. We shared a starter and each ordered a main (veg and chicken) with speciality rice and bread. It was reasonably priced and worth every penny! You can taste the love and care put into making each meal. The menu changes based on locally sourced foods, which are in season and/or fresh that week. The entire experience from start to finish was excellent. If you're a "foodie" you'll love this place.

Really amazing food and perfect atmosphere. Superb service- truly warm and welcoming. This is a hidden gem and is highly recommended.

I booked Daaku off the back of the reviews to have dinner at whilst we visited the area.Initially, we didn’t know what to expect as you walk through the working boat yard to a small door leading upstairs. The restaurant is decorated in bright colours with different pictures and ornaments up. The owner explained they are from her home town in Jaipur which was a nice touch. We felt like we were in India!The menu is small, however it changes regularly depending on the ingredients they can source locally. I liked the fact the dishes are different from that you would find in a conventional curry house. We split a starter, ordered our own beef and chicken curries, shared a speciality rice and chilli garlic bread. We also a shared a desert, which was delicious. The food was full of flavour and we came in hungry and left content, so I think portion sizes were spot on. I agree the main curry is slightly expensive (around 15) however the starters, deserts and drinks were reasonable. We spent around 80 pounds including 3 g&t’s, 2 beers and a cider.The staff are really friendly and attentive and the the food was delicious. Really enjoyed this place and would recommend to anyone visiting to try it if you like India food!

Such an amazing evening ! Delicious food and the MOST friendly staff. So authentic and special. Been a few times and couldn’t recommend this lovely place more !

Fabulous restaurant, excellent service, wonderful food.

Brilliant food and amazing service! Only 3 main dishes on the menu at one time and they change each week so they’re done really well!

Exceptional food, consistently delicious and high quality ingredients with lovely service. Can’t fault and highly recommend

Fantastic - one of the best meals we have had outside of India for Indian food. Authentic, tasty and loved the small menu. The service was exceptional and we will be back for sure!!

My partner and I had dinner tonight in this restaurant. The place is beautiful and the food is so but so good!! All staff was very nice especially the owner of the restaurant as well as the Spanish and Cuban waitresses!!! We will definitely return before our holiday end! If I could I would give you 10 stars!!

Delicious punjab Indian food not your run of the meal Indian restaurant doesn't have large menu with all the same options in most other Indian restaurants. Really good friendly service our meal came very quickly apparently Jasmine's speciality. Recommended dishes butter chicken and fresh orange and mint raita but everything was fab. The restaurant is in Penryn and very much worth a visit they do take away and the decor is amazing lots of thought for every detail great atmosphere.
