The best restaurants serving Indian food in Christchurch South West

We moved to the area about 4 years ago and we were struggling to find a decent Indian curry house, our daughters boyfriend had used the Kashmir for many years and highly recommended them,. As you can imagine we was sceptical because we had not discovered anywhere we liked in the 4 years of living near. The first time we went we ate in house, I had a King Prawn Puri starter followed by a Tandoori mixed grill. My wife requested the King Prawn Puri as a main course which they said would not be a problem and it was duly prepared and served, it was also incredible. We have been going back now regularly for takeaways as the restaurant itself is quite small and always very busy, if you want to eat in then I strongly advise you book in. My one complaint, it's costing me a fortune as I'm addicted to their food, love this place and long may they keep up their amazing quality and skills of fine Indian dining.

great value for money and great quality

Only had a few starter bits and they were horrible Keema rice was dripping with oil/grease and made us feel sick Both naan breads had no flavour at all and we're very doughy The cheese naan bread didn't have any cheese at all on the one side The mint and chutney sauce were too sweet The only thing decent was the kebab meat and even that was just ok Worst Indian food I've ever had

Do not go the worst indian resturant . Food service and drinks. Abysmal. Needs to have a new chef as existing one not a clue

Having moved to the area 2 weeks ago from London we were excited for our first family curry. Well what can I say….all the food was tasteless with no spice at all! Chicken was dry and the pershwari naan had no coconut inside whatsoever. I do not want to repeat myself but I can’t explain any further how all the dishes we ordered had no sense of taste. Will be my first and last time ordering from this place.

Really lovely meal tonight at Starlight. Service excellent and food fresh and tasty. Great value for money and will visits again when back in the area. Highly recommend
