Host and hostess very courteous and friendly.
Food had banana bahji(spelling not correct). Curly fries.
Lamb and mint sauce,
Bahji dish was burnt. deep frier oil was stale, I could taste the oil. the curly fries were frozen from a package, they were over cooked , crunchy potato almost totally dried out. Unfortunately the lamb was tough, cooked hard and fast, smothered in mint and parsley paste which was stuck thick, the sauce did not match the meat. I've not tasted south Indian dishs like these, prepared beforehand like these were . The lamb was tough. I do not support the chef excuses, were poor. Dish of bahji was replaced and was not burnt, however the meal left me with dissapointment.
I can honestly say the food is Not up to the standard of the service staff. We do not recommend this venue.

We shared 3 starters and then had a main each. Probably a little too much food, but it was delicious. Also no rush to leave so we got to sit and enjoy the atmosphere.
Amazingly flavoured food during our dinner. Not the usual curry house food, authentic flavours and generous portions.
Also for people looking for indian style chai, this is the place! Highly recommended.

Nice atmosphere restaurant with good service….the size of the dishes needs a bit improvement
I visited the Permit Room after being recommended it by friends. I was not disappointed. The food is amazing and very authentic. Such depth of flavors and not like your typical NZ style of Indian food. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for tasty authentic South Indian flavours.
They also do amazing cocktails, which was a nice compliment to the meal.
Well worth the visit!!!
A shoutout to Alyssa for serving us some amazing cocktails, and giving great advice on food selections.

Amazing experience! Delicious food with authentic taste! Reasonably priced. Good range of options for foods and drinks. Awesome and quick customer service. Great ambience, convenient location and easy carpark. We enjoyed our food. We ordered kerela fried Chicken, mutton curry and porota. We will definitely visit again. Highly recommended :)
Good food very very tasty. Limited menu but awesome.
Good customer service.
Nice location.
Lovely Ambience..
But I think it's a bit expensive.
2 people dinner cost us $56 dollars.
I would definitely recommend this place.
