REVIEW BY Brendon Feck (1) on 27th November 2007
I am a frequent diner at the Indian Star restaurant in Rotorua and am never disappointed. From the warm personal welcome as you walk in the door until the time you leave, you are treated to a dining experiance and service rarely seen today. The food is excellant, always prepared to a high standard. On very busy nights (more and more often) you may need to be a little patient, yet it is well worth the wait, believe me. I recommend the Butter Chicken, Chilli Chicken or my personal favourite, Chicken Vindaloo with an ice cold Kingfisher beer.
Put the team Indian Star to the test..it will be a night to remember.

Indian Star have the best Butter Chicken ever! The service is always great, and the staff are friendly and seem to remember you, even if its been a while since you've visited! That just gives you warm fuzzies all over...!
REVIEW BY Janet Keen (6) on 26th January 2007
Indian Stsar is the best Indian Restaurant in Rotorua. The food is always tasty, well cooked and the service prompt and friendly. I like all the chicken dishes and the potaoto dishes are delectable.Complimentary popodoms are a nice touch and they have nice peppermints. The owners know us rally well and always give us a gift and card at Christmas, it's nice to be appreciated as regulars. I must have eaten there at least 30 times in the past 6 years and I never get sick of it.
REVIEW BY Jo S (25) on 1st February 2006
We've been here a couple of times, not regularly as it is a bit of a hike from Auckland, but they have the best vindaloo we've had in a restaurant. Specifically the best chicken vindaloo, but the Saag Gosht we had the other night was great too. Friendly staff, they might move you through pretty fast if they are busy though, and it's probably a good idea to book on a weekend.
REVIEW BY Trewceval (2) on 25th November 2003
The most fantastic butter chicken in all of Rotorua (in my opinion, & I've tried most of them).
Complimentary poppadoms on arrival are a nice touch, and the staff are always friendly, efficient and polite.
They also do a great mixed platter if you want to try a variety of dishes.
