Kumar's Something Special

Delicious food and quirky atmosphere. Glad that decided to dine in here over the weekend while visiting Karangahake Reserve. I loved kdhai chicken and Tandoori Chicken.

Absolutely delicious! Will be back again! Just popped in for takeout as we were driving through. Honestly best Indian we have had!

The service was nice and food was good. Atmosphere had its own ambiance I enjoyed. Over all was enjoyable

Ahmazing food. Explosive flavours and subtle spiciness for the mild lovers. Comforting ambience and kingfisher on tap. The dip that comes with the papadums is out of this world flavour. You definitely need to stop on your drive through Paeroa, you'd be pleasantly surprised.

Staff were friendly enough and it was an enjoyable meal. Only disappointment was the table service although the initial engagement was great and meal order done promptly.it was well after the meal served and enjoyed, that no one returned to check on us the table remaining uncleared even as we got up to leave.didn't feel special.

Overall was great and the portions were generous too. The cheesy Naan was extra cheesy better than the rest of the Indian places I've been. Butter chicken was great too not your average butter chicken flavor (like the food court in the malls) this one tasted authentic, absolutely delicious.

Lovely people and lovely food! Cannot go wrong with a butter chicken and a cheese and garlic Naan. Thank you guys Dan and Jade.

Love this spot. Been here a few times. It stacks up nicely against the Sandringham road eateries.

Really slow service tonight first time here despite all the good reviews 24/02/23 1 hour 40 mins since ordering and still no delivery of food quite embarrassing

Kia ora whanua
Enjoyed my dinner here today. The Lamb Korma was out of this world the best I have had so far. Will surely be back.

Great selection of food. Very well presented. Spacious tidy surroundings
Friendly staff.

It is certainly something special. I have Indian food often, everything I ate at Kumar's was delicious. Loved the venison curry and samosas!

Such a lovely place. We came for a family dinner without a booking and felt very warmly welcomed. The service was exceptional and the food was excellent. You get a vast amount of choices, also vegetarian. I had a delicious mushroom & pea curry, non-spicy (according to my order), but very flavorful (which is not always a given). If I’m ever in the area again, I’d love to come back to eat at Kumar’s.

Lamb korma and butter chicken were some of the best we’ve ever tried. Read the menu until the last page where you can find the heartwarming story of Kumar’s family (with everyone helping out in the kitchen). Each meal felt truly home-made. Great potato naan as well.

It’s honestly kinda stupid how good this place is? Service was fantastic. Cook to order. Should’ve eaten here every night we stayed in Paeroa.

Stopped in for dinner on the way to Auckland from Tauranga. Food was absolutely incredible. Onion Baji and Samosa entrees best we’ve ever had and our chicken curries were generous and so flavoursome. Highly recommended as a stop if passing through the area unless you are a lucky local to make this place a regular visit! Can’t wait to return.

Ordered two Lamb Kadai takeouts with butter naan last night, had to wait some time as they were busy, but they were excellent, highly recommend.

Amazing and Delicious food
Worth the penny
Malabari Duck, Venison curry worth the try
Lovely service by the whole family

This Indian restaurant was one of the best I have ever tried! We absolutely loved it. Good job!

“Good Things Take Time”. A long wait, but the delicious freshly cooked food makes it worth waiting.
