This is still one of my top 5 curry restaurants in Durban.Canecutters offers a no frills authentic Durban curry meal at reasonable prices.Their bunnies are their signature dishes and they are delicious yet not shockingly hot like some restaurants!I normally have the de-boned mutton curry which is slightly more expensive but you are assured of getting meat and not bones and fat!Another favorite of mine is the butter chicken.Highly recommended

Weâre not usually big fans of hotel restaurants but Ocean Terrace is listed at #7 on Tripadvisorâs list of 114 restaurants in Umhlanga. It had to be worth a try, not least as we were staying at the Oyster Box Hotel where itâs located. Not least as, in addition to their fairly extensive menu, they also have a curry buffet. Now, these can be tricky. Buffets are rarely top quality food but South Asian food seems to stand up to it better than some other cuisines. Here, itâs done very well.The buffet was lacking starters so it was straight in to the main courses. There were about 10 dishes on offer â a good mix of vegetarian and non-veggie. Between the two of us, we managed to sample most of them â yes, one of us went back for extensive seconds having already had extensive firsts. Stand-outs were the âtraditional Durban lamb curryâ (tender meat, well rounded sauce), a butter bean curry, mixed vegetable curry (veg still retaining a little bite â not always a given with Asian food) and daal (a good chilli kick here)There was a vast range of things to go with your curries â raitas, pickles, chutneys. And several bowls of dried fruit â apricots, raisins , etc â which were very reminiscent of Indian meals in the UK when folk started to eat it back in the 1970s. But the retro touch was nice. Rice, not pilau and palin boiled, was good with fluffy separate grains. And thereâs chapattis and poppadums â the latter a bit greasy and not quite crisp enough.The buffet includes a pick from the three dessert items available. There was alovely almond kulfi and, served warm, a vermicelli pudding. I think the latter is a South African spin on the usually cold falooda. Good dinner!.

I used to really like the Tandoor Kitchen. Tasty food well made. I took a friend for a celebration two weeks ago. We started off with some samoosas. Cheese and sweetcorn. Pretty tasteless. Then a supposed Lamb Roghan Jhosh. What was the strange grey meet in this dish? Lamb? I donât think so. None of the lamb sweetness. It looked like old, grey beef. And the sauce had heat but not much flavour. And where was the green pepper? Yep, distinctly underwhelmed. Not returning in a hurry.

We are fasting for Navaratri so Indian was the perfect choice. Thankfully we got a table even without a prior booking - and clearly Maliâs is a popular choice on a Friday night - as the restaurant quickly filled up. There were lots of vegetarian options and we opted for the Manchurian mushrooms and masala papads to start. Mains were masala dosa - massive dosa with a very watery, small serving of potato curry, dhall makhani - average and paneer Tikka masala with garlic naans and raita. Service was very good.

Recently Goodlife Foundation Executives had a business lunch at this beautiful restaurant. Our experience as we entered the restaurant was absolutely overwhelming with neatly clad waiters welcoming us with so much of discipline and excitement. Melodious eastern music played in the background. We were seated and helped almost immediately. There was a huge selection of mouth watering meals to choose from. Upon placing our order the well trained staff went on overdrive and within a short while our freshly cooked meals were meticulously served as per our order. We immediately tucked in and was not disappointed. All the meals were well prepared and very delicious. The dessert was equally of high quality and very tasty. Our overall experience was impeccable and impressive. Definitely a huge 10 from all of us for excellent service delivery. We will definitely tell all our family and friends about this authentic restaurant. Thank You
