Tasty food of all varieties, timely serving, nice ambience, courteous staff, nice hospitality, competitive tariff, good house keeping. Triggers mood to frequent this fantastic restaurant.
A Sandringham original. Fantastic food prepared by friendly staff who are passionate about looklng after you. Must try - Dahl Puri, mango lassi, Chicken Korma and South Indian Lamb - we have been going for years and love going back every time.
Great food and very friendly staff. Must try if you are a fan of Indian food, especially South Indian dishes. The Dosa’s were very crispy and served hot with really nice condiments to go with it(sambar and chutney). Their chai lounge which is situated behind is also a great spot to hang out and chill! 😊
Cool hangout spot with friends! This place is always quite busy so can get a little annoying if you are hungry but the food is worth the wait!
Excellent customer service! Delicious food. Quick service. Highly recommend to all food lovers. Good location. Plenty of offstreet car parking.
Seeing interior I was always how this place would be but one day I was really craving for south Indian Dosa and trying Satya was really good experience.
I have visited this place multiple times for fresh and crispy dosa!!
Dont be put off by the outdated decor or the cold draughty room. Go for the food. Service is fast and friendly
The dahi puri Is actually cheaper than the spice alley although made in the very same kitchen.
Ofcourse dahi puri had to be on the menu. Bursting full of potato and covered in yogurt, tamarind and chaat masala. We ordered paneer dry cooked which was amazing. The chicken started was small bits of chicken cooked to perfection. We finished off with the cheese dosa. Served with raita and Dahl. Staff super friendly.
It was hard to decide on a rating for this place based on the food and ambience as one is 4/5 (the food) and ambience is a 1/5
Let me start by saying if you come here and don’t have the fish curry you’re missing out. The fish was cooked to perfection and the curry was authentic South Indian.
Masala Dosa was great.
Lamb curry was also good and the lamb again cooked perfectly it was melting in the mouth.
Waitress serving us was so honest and we took her recommendations on everything. Such a lovely girl
Downside : ambience is terrible with saris everywhere and also flies flying all over the front tables . Toilet was disgusting also.
If this place could give itself a make over much like the chai alley it would be so much better to visit
This hidden gem is definitely one to visit! Food is amazing and the staff are very friendly, their alcoholic chai is great for hair of the dog! 100% recommend. My partner and I hosts the Shared Soul Sessions there on the 1st Sunday of every month, we play live music and stricly vinyl DJ sets, bringing you some chill and soulful tunes. 💕
I wish there were more numbers in rating if I could give 😍. There food is so simple and yet outstanding, they put their soul in the food and this is the best part about it. Ambience is not so good but service and food is 10/10 ❤️❤️. This was my 3rd visit and will never stop going there.
I love the ambience here. Heaps of vegetarian options too. If you need dhaba feels in Auckland, this is one of such places. No regrets. Just amazing. Must try their Chai with parle G biscuit.
I love my Indian food. This place is nothing like any normal ‘kiwi’ Indian restaurant. I was so impressed with this place I have to go into deal why:
1: the dishes are insane- not big gut full Indian curries but quality food
2: the naan breed and rotti bread was fresh and the poppadoms were fresh out of the oven.
3: the beer selection, and this got me! Over 100 craft beers to select from.
Food came out fast. We were there on a Sunday night and the place was full.
Go. And enjoy 😉
Excellent food made even better with great service in a cool environment. Met up with some good friends here from New York and thoroughly enjoyed the evening.

Sichuan Chicken
Chilli Fish
It's good Yum yum😋 The interior decoration is nice!! The food is a bit salty and spicy. but its perfect for a beer snack
No filler, all killer.
Superb menu, great atmosphere, chilled vibe, easy going staff.
Don’t be asking for mild / medium / hot, just order from the menu, then enjoy with a hot chai.
There are GF and DF options, but get the lamb 😋
Highly recommended.
The best southern Indian food I have ever eaten, simply amazing.

We had tea and it was refreshing and nostalgic for my Indian taste buds but it cost $7 per cup which is on the higher side of the cost spectrum.
Cannot recommend Satya enough! Been to the K Road and Sandringham locations multiple times and they're always delicious, especially the starters. It was my parents' 25th wedding anniversary so we loved the little surprise touch they added to our experience. Lovely hosts and quick service, impressed and excited to go again.
Food, service and ambience - A+
Didn’t quite like the seating arrangements. Starters and mains were delivered at the same
Time and there were not enough space on the tiny table to fit 4 basic items. The chair felt uncomfortable too.
Best dish - chicken 65 and chicken fried rice.
Hidden gem in Sandringham. Food was very yummy. Perfect tea on a cold rainy day. Chicken manchurian was out of the world. Best I've ever had. Seating could be a little better but compensates with amazing food and ambiance. Will definitely go there again.
