Bikanervala Henderson

Best value lunch in Auckland. All you can eat Indian veg buffet of north, south and Indo/chinese Indian food. Small but perfectly rounded mix of dishes and condiments plus bread for $20. No indentification on the dishes so it's all a bit of a surprise but we didnt find a dish we didn't like. The pea curry a standout! Very friendly staff here too. Gets busy, there may be a small wait but we were looked after well.

Such a happy atmosphere this restaurant has! Found this place very close to where I stay and well I must say it reminded me of India. Having visited many Indian restaurants in Auckland, this is the only place with such Indian vibes, it feels like you're in Delhi. We ordered chole bhature and sweet lassi, both the dish and beverage tasted really good. Light on pocket with a vast variety and various options. A must visit if you're craving for some chat, lassi and North Indian food.

Saturday and Sunday, All you can eat buffet. All food is vegetarian, please ask the staff regarding vegan food. Great price for what you get. The food is very tasty and the price is exceptional for what you get. Drinks are an add-on however water is provided. It feels a bit cramped however you can seat small families or friends groups. There are no bookings and you may need to wait outside to get a seat. Toilets are clean and well kept.

A good thing about this place is that everything is vegetarian so everything on the menu is fair game. The menu itself it quite large and so it can be very intimidating particularly if you're not sure on what to get. I ended up getting the Henderson Thali to try and taste a bit of everything. I ordered at the counter but it did look like you are able to order at the table, just scan the QR code on the table. It took about 30 minutes to get the plate. Although there were;t many people eating in there were a few getting takeaways. What was exciting is that the food was served by a robot. the naan was nice but it was a bit raw in some places. I wasn't a fan of the pickles since they were a bit bitter. Everything else was amazing. the papri chat in the middle was my favourite. Crispy papri and the topping were quite balanced and delicious. I enjoyed all the curries that came with it. I did like that it was a different protein in each one, paneer, chickpea, lentil, potato and Manchurian dumpling. Each curry had its own flavour and it was really nice. The whole plate was quite large and really filling. I also got a Gulab jamun for dessert which was also quite nice. It was a nice place to have vegetarian Indian food which is different from ordinary ones.

Went in last week man this place never disappoints me.. but they really need to work on Filter coffee. Love this place.. I always go here with my family. Reasonable pricing. Reasonable quantity never has let me down on any dishes. Bring the authentic flavours of Northern-India. Always my go. And will always come back..
