Ninety One - Indian Restaurant

5 Caleb Meyer - 8 months ago

best Indian restaurant I’ve been to in Cape Town. Had the palak paneer and it was flavorful and spicy to my desire (for all the spicy peeps). The butter chicken was also really good and they served big portions. like Indian food? This is the one to try out

Spectacular Indian food: the butter chicken was prepared with care; you could taste the smokiness from the tandoor. Ingredients were all fresh and made to order: the mushrooms in the mushroom basmati were fresh, the garlic naan was thin and textured.

The value is incredible.

However, the owner needs to invest better in his business. The patio is exposed and needs hedges like the other businesses beside them. The employees also need to be treated better: they seemed burnt out and unempowered. The manager couldn't even trust them with the wi-fi password to provide to diners? The interior is dark and unwelcoming and needs better lighting.

The food is worth the detour but it'd be a shame if the best way to enjoy it is through food delivery.

Best restaurant in sea point? I don't think so, atleast not by my standards. The service was okay, the food came out quicker than we expected which was nice but we did not enjoy the taste of the meals we ordered. The seating situation was tricky since the outside was loud due to the raging traffic of Sea Point and the inside seating was quite stuffy for my liking.

Highly recommend this restaurant! The welcome and service received was so warm and friendly. It creates such a wonderful first impression and definitely set the tone for the evening. The food is even better than the awesome service. The food definitely surpassed my expectations. Every dish we ordered was delicious. This is one of the best Indian restaurants I’ve visited in Cape Town by far and I look forward to returning.

It's my husband and I's first day in Cape Town for our honeymoon, and we really craved a nice spicy curry after the super long day we had, this is THE BEST curry I ever paid for in my entire life. It tasted like a granny was back there in the kitchen ???? it was our first meal here and we must say the bar has been set so high!!

Don't hesitate, just try them! You will not be disappointed!

Food was really delicious with good portion sizes, well worth a visit if you’re in the area.

We had the palak paneer and the Dhal makhni (both vegetarian dishes) together with Garlic and Roghni naan.

We also received a complimentary starter of veg (potato) samoosa (due to a special running at the time) - these were so light, crispy and worth trying!

All the food was delicious - however special mention of the palak paneer dish.

Also note we ordered everything in medium (from heat perspective which hit the spot - I suspect the hot will probably be hot)

Parking in seapoint can be tricky - so it’s worth planning ahead for that.

The restaurant is neat and clean, and the waitresses are pleasant - overall good experience and definitely coming back.
