Blu Ginger

I've been here a number of times. I'm picky about Indian food, and don't really like the taste of most Indian places. The curries at Blu Ginger taste a bit more authentic. The food today didn't taste as good as I remember though. The dhaal had a smoky flavour which I didn't like, I didn't like the vege ball entree ( ? Manchuria) , the cauliflower and potato was also not that great. The service is good, but mains are always slow to come out. It's dirt cheap for the portion sizes given. Another reviewer mentioned a week ago that the naan is crisper and flatter here - I don't think that's the case. You can see that one of my pics has both naan and roti, they are 2 different kinds of breads. The menus do need a wipe as our drinks menu had food all over it. Overall, another good experience, although I'm less wowed.

Indian cuisine is my favorite, but I’ve never been disappointed with it like i was today. I’m new to Canberra, so I looked for the top Indian restaurants here, and I got this one. There’s absolutely nothing special about it and frankly speaking, idk how ppl gave it even 2 stars. The food had no flavor or taste, and all my orders were cold. What surprised me the most was the waiter, when she was taking the order she laughed in the middle so we asked her what’s the issue! She said “ your ordering too much.” However, after she brought the dishes, I felt glad that we didn’t order more because that food was not worth $106 .. in fact, $10 in another takeaway restaurant would’ve been better.

Extremely good Indian food. Probably one of the best I've ever had in Australia. The dishes have the real Indian flavour with no added sugar (most of the Indian restaurants add sugar to almost every gravy/ curry). The peas pulao was cooked in ghee and tasted awesome. It's a real gem and a food heaven for anyone who loves authentic Indian food. Great food, great service!
