Curries always taste fresh and are delicious. Staff can make suitable spice adjustments. Meat servings in the curries are reasonable, better than most other Indian restaurants. Naan is always freshly made and great tasting.
Staff are friendly and happy to discuss meal choices. Service is fairly quick and consistently good.
Prices are reasonable and the lunch specials are good value, but the Monday - Wednesday dinner special (Curry & Rice for $10, excluding seafood) is definitely what keeps me coming back.
Easy to find parking in Glenmall or streetside on Captain Scott or Oates.
Highly recommend!
My friends and I came here for a dinner on Wednesday night. Luckily they had 10$ sort of a deal night. Great range of most favorite Indian dishes in NZ.
Manager/waitress man guided us through selection of various dishes and the level of spiciness. With the best of manners and behaviour he took our order.
As a order we had good old butter chicken (one mild and one kiwi hot), chicken korma, lamb korma and something else (forgot the name of dish but contained tons of spinach - very cool). Butter chicken was real saucy yet tasty. Sauce was great, but chicken felt a little bit undercooked... Still eatable. I have read some other reviews of people complaining that there are small amount of meat pieces in their takeaways but wasn't problem for us (reason might be eating on spot). About rest of the food we got - no complaints. And one more thing, mango lasi is the thing so tasty..
On dinner deals price and performance ratio is very good and affordable for your wallet too. I do recommend this place for a casual dinner occasion with mates at the beginning of the week.
Nice place to eat or a great place to order take out. Tonight I ordered take out, one Chicken Korma that comes with rice and a Garlic Naan. Ordered mine medium and it was really good not too spicy. A very satisfied customer here.
$18.50 good price. Should feed at least two to three people.
10-15 min wait. Pop along I know I’ll be back for more :)
Must say this is one of the best restaurant i hv visited.Enviroment was very warm and comfy, service was excellent and food was also very exquisite and delicious..i would highly recommend it to everyone.
Have ordered from here a few times, Good portion size, offers a kids butter chicken which my daughter loves. Delivery wait can be a little long, so make sure you order it an hour before you want it to arrive.
The food is great! I love that this place has 10 dollar mains on Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday. My husband and I are regulars at this place and they are always providing quality food and friendly service. I only rated 4.0 because there are some times where we are waiting for a long time for our food to arrive at our table. But other than that, it's such a good place for indian food!
Always enjoy their chicken kormas and butter chickens. Great value Mon to Weds with $10 Currys! Sometimes a little wait but totally worth it.
Indian food is so tasty and fragrant, and Ghazal is no exception to that.
My lamb was good and the sauce was yummy, but I think the coriander could be fresher and more present in the dish.
Service is definitely something to improve. The staff wasnt very kind and left the place unattended most of time.
Tonight was my first time trying a paneer curry and on a friends recommendation, I took the plunge ordered the Paneer Butter Masala. The aroma coming from my takeaway bag had me drooling long before I got in the door and it took an enormous amount of self control to not dig in before I took a couple of snaps. The sauce was a beautiful balance of sweet tomato and hard hitting spice which made the paneer a welcomed mild accompaniment.
My Garlic Naan was light and buttery with the perfect amount of crisp around the edges. The Poppadoms tasted fresh out of the pan and had a amazing subtle after taste which left a slight warmth in my mouth.
All of the above for under $15 and everything was still piping hot by the time I got home. Even though the restaurant was quiet, the warm smiles and welcoming atmosphere made a cosy and appealing haven from the cold outside. Ghazal Indian Cuisine is a restaurant I definitely intend on visiting again.
We got takeaways from Ghazal tonight. Delicious food. Firstly, the gentleman on the phone was very helpful with placing the order. In fact, he even suggested a lamb dish off the menu instead of the one we initially ordered.
We got achari chicken tikka, lamb curry as recommended, chicken madras, keema naan and a butter naan.
Achari tikka was perfectly spiced and with a hint of mustard oil flavour and pieces of mango pickle, exactly how it should be. The chicken was tender.The dish was accompanied with a small salad and chutney. Both complimented the dish very well.
The chicken madras was unlike any "madras" curry you get in Indian restaurants. It was packed with mustard seeds curry leaves onions and coconut. The chicken in this dish too was delicate and flavourful.
Coming to the lamb, the dish was lovely. The taste of garam masala and ginger was quite prominent exactly as described. We asked for an Indian hot and it was prefect. The spicy lamb and creamy chicken curry made a great combination. No complains about the naans either. The keema naan was huge.
We will definitely be returning here.
Very friendly staff, very yummy the yellow dal. And lamb curry. Very good price Monday to Wednesday for dinner. Thanks
This is the best Indian restaurant in Auckland. We have been here many times and always walk out 100% satisfied with the quality of the food. We'll order medium Indian hot next time. Thanks Ghazal you're great hosts. Regards Jim & Linda from Waiatarual
Really nice food and excellent service. Very good service and they deliver for free in the Glen Eden area. I have been going for years and find them to be a great Indian Restaurant. My favourite dishes are the Prawn Malabar and the Chicken Korma.
I am dairy free and the staff were very helpful in talking me through the menu and making my options clear. It made for a really enjoyable night without having to worry about dietary needs. Also the food was really good!!
Must say... food was fantabulous... no colouring, no extra sweetness... must try .....
9/10 ....
It's hardly to find any good restaurants in Auckland....
