Went here on other recommendations, but maybe we got them on a bad night!. Went on a sunday and got jammed in between the waiter station and another table even tho there were other bigger tables but 2 people in a party they don't seem to care. So could hear every word spoken by table beside us. My partner loves... More

We were the ones making the noise though! Ravish was very accommodating when our number of diners kept changing and we were treated well and enjoyed the set 2 course dinner.

Best Indian meal I have had for a long time. We ducked in short of time before a show and were seated quickly, asked if we were under time restraints and served superbly. The staff were all very professional and even the trainee waitress was good. We ordered a Lamb Korma and a Rogan Josh. The meals were superb and... More

My wife and I had an excellent meal at a reasonable price at this popular place on the main street where most of the restaurants are located. That it was packed on a Monday night testifies to its local notoriety.

The standout Indian restaurant in Wellington. Had not been for awhile and needed a quick choice for two couples, briefly child-free whilst the movies entertained the children. Great India met the brief of: proximity, meat and vegetarian diets, interesting food, and an environment to allow the conversation to flow. Flawless service, staff who knew the menu well and explained our... More

We saw some review of this restaurant on our first rainy evening in Wellington - the primary virtue: it was close to where we were. We went and understood we would have walked miles for this food. Delicious, fresh, subtle, tasty. The service was lovely without being cloying. We went back every day we stayed in Wellington. The staff knew... More

Went here on a midweek night with a group of 8 work colleagues. None of us were from Wellington so we did a bit of a google and found this one was closest to our hotels and had favourable reviews. We were able to get a table without a reservation at 7:30-8pm at night. Great selection on the menu, we... More

Not the best Indian restaurant I've been to in NZ - you'd have to be in Auckland or Hamner for that. Perhaps it was because it was a Saturday night after an international sporting event in town; full of English people and we know how they love their curry! It's probably the most expensive I've had too at $100 for... More
