I visited the Permit Room after being recommended it by friends. I was not disappointed. The food is amazing and very authentic. Such depth of flavors and not like your typical NZ style of Indian food. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for tasty authentic South Indian flavours.
They also do amazing cocktails, which was a nice compliment to the meal.
Well worth the visit!!!
A shoutout to Alyssa for serving us some amazing cocktails, and giving great advice on food selections.

Amazingly flavoured food during our dinner. Not the usual curry house food, authentic flavours and generous portions.
Also for people looking for indian style chai, this is the place! Highly recommended.

Sumptuous dishes from all over India, beautifully served. Our big family enjoyed a selection of small plates, before sharing a selection of larder ones. Hyderabadi Paneer and generous Dosa some of our favourites. Gorgeous setting (tiled bathroom with pressed tin roof!) and location by the trams and Victoria Park. Warm, friendly staff. We will be back!

Good food very very tasty. Limited menu but awesome.
Good customer service.
Nice location.
Lovely Ambience..
But I think it's a bit expensive.
2 people dinner cost us $56 dollars.
I would definitely recommend this place.

Great ambience, convenient location and easy carpark. We enjoyed our food. We ordered kerela fried Chicken, mutton curry and porota. We will definitely visit again. Highly recommended :)

We shared 3 starters and then had a main each. Probably a little too much food, but it was delicious. Also no rush to leave so we got to sit and enjoy the atmosphere.

Lovely interior, great music and vibe. Foods and services were top. Highly recommend to anyone who wants to try South Indian cuisine.

Couldn't fault the food, service and ambience but were told we could not take our leftovers due to our group dining with First Table. We were prepared to pay for a container and prepare it all ourselves but still told this was not possible. We get that times are hard in the hospitality business but in this day and age, it seemed obscene to waste this food.

My absolute favourite in Christchurch. Can't wait to be back. Meals are consistently good and I love the atmosphere... Great staff, fantastic chefs! See you soon!

Excellent coconut chicken curry from the Arabian Sea, right in the heart of Te Waipounamu. We’ll come again. Lovely with an evening walk through the park too.

We came a couple nights ago for dinner for two and the food and service was above and beyond. Our server told us about the south indian style dishes and recommended a couple of small plates and a large plate, and we still had room for dessert! Would highly recommend the paneer, and the prawns were excellent, incredible flavour. Will definitely be back next time we’re in town, thanks Permit Room
