Really enjoyed the food, very good value for the serving size and every dish was delicious. Only lost one staar on the service, very friendly but a bit slow at times.

Delicious food and cosy atmosphere. Staff are friendly and attentive.

Dined in, received great service and great food, I was quite amused seeing Indian rappers on the in-store TV. More people should dine in, it would improve the atmosphere.

So far best Indian ove had in this town and for somewhere that's in a suburban area they've really nailed. Very cute little restaurant as well as polite hosts to ensure your meal is top notch. Highly recommended, absolutely beautiful!!!

Our favorite to go Indian food!! Never disappoint :) we have taken away and had a meal in the restaurant as well. Friendly and cheerful staff!! I'm happy that they remember us with our usual orders (and our spice preference)
We need a loyalty card with these guys.. they're that good :D

We would often order from St. Andrews, the curries are great... But what has happened with the service when ordering over the phone?... We spoke with a man who said that we can't order the 14.50 combos on Fridays and Saturdays but we had ordered the combos previously on Friday.. We called Huntington and there was no problem ordering combos.

One of the better Indian places about, we got a take away Medium butter chicken and a medium madras. I enjoyed the butter chicken the most, it was much more punchy than most you get around Hamilton. The Naan bread was of good quality as well. Have also have the tandoori chicken, it was top notch. 4 stars due to the madras being a little bland, but more of a 4.5 stars.

The food and the service was awesome, something we haven't see in Auckland, great customer service with courtesy and politeness, and the food was beyond our expectation, I really recommend this place for great Indian food.....

Perfect. After trying hand full of restaurants, Friends is absolutely acing the list of my Favourite Indian Restaurant in Hamilton. Personal fav., Curry is Chicken Tikka Masala. Perfect mixture of herbs and spices. In Appetizers, The Tandoori Mixed Platter is fabulous. Huntington branch looks more appealing to me because of its spacious sitting area and Garlic Naans.<br/><br/>Staff is friendly and always makes sure that u are having a good time. It's a Must Visit.
Sammy Eats World
The Huntington brunch is my personal favourite Indian restaurant in Hamilton. Staff are very friendly and food always tastes amazing. Best garlic naan I can find in town and the balance of flavours in all the Curryâs are outstanding.<br/>If youâre wanting to try something other than your typical butter chicken this is the place to go...<br/>I have tasted nearly every dish here and they all donât fail to impress

GREAT FOOD.. . The two girls working was friendly and courteous making sure we have what we needed. They have limited seating places. I recommend that you order for takeaway or call for reservation. But the food was great. Had butter chicken and lamb vindaloo. The butter chicken was tender and the sauce is packed with flavor !! They also serve 2 papadom upon arriving. On our next visit - we had tandoori chicken and cheese naan. They are also a must have, when visiting this place. They serve with a side of green mint sauce which balances the whole dish. đđź

Lovely delicately flavoured food, good value for money. Great paneer meals, great prawns, lamb, cheese naan. Go early as they become very busy!<br/>
Neil McVicar
Great food. Appalling service. There was 7 of us and one person didn't get their food until everyone else had almost finished. Tried to catch a waiter for ten minutes to order more drinks and desserts but gave up in the end... this was a slow Tuesday so I dread to think what the service on a busy Saturday would be like.

so we ordered the tawa fish from appetizers, chicken kolhapuri from mains and 2 naans.<br/><br/>tawa fish:<br/>tasted really good and cooked with respect. <br/>generous size that served 2. one of the key ingredients is the caraway seeds while marinating, something I havent seen in quite a few restaurants, but could certainly tell it was used here. gives distinct aroma to the fish and also takes care of your tummy :)<br/>after a long time got to see the typical Indian green salad, cucumber,carrot lettuce and tomato.<br/>would absolutely recommend this.<br/><br/>chicken kolhapuri<br/>spices well blended and tasted nice, but the curry had coconut milk rather than dry coconut(traditional). but didn't taste that bad at all. <br/><br/>naan bread :<br/>was alright.<br/>
Lucy May
Very friendly, relaxed, good value for money. We are vegetarian and there were plenty of options, which didnât seem to be the case for many places in Hamilton
Melissa Visey-Mesina
I enjoyed the food that was delivered to our place a few weeks ago. It was only $5 delivery for my order that was about $35-$38. I called again to get food delivered today, but now I was told itâll be $10delivery charge even if I explained that they delivered here with less delivery cost so we wonât be calling here again.
Raine Walton
First time ordering take away meals from here tonight. We were recommended to try them , must say we were not disappointed....the food was fabulous, so tasty, delicious and fresh! Our new takeaway place to go to now, we will be back!
Gargi Gaonkar Mathkar
Very disappointing experience!!! My husband placed an order over phone for takeaways, when I went to pick up I was informed that we haven't placed any order and asked me if I placed an order in the sandwich rd branch only? I have saved the sandwich rd branch no. (07 8494646)on my mobile as we always order from them. The person who was serving wasn't even courteous to ask if i want to place an order now infact he totally ignored me and started talking to the other customers. When I was talking to him he just walked into the kitchen before I could even complete my sentence. Very poor service. Won't suggest this place to any of my friends and I won't go back here. Friends - Cuisine of India you have lost a regular customer!!
Sam Samson
Just had takeaways from here and sooooo good. Can't believe we have lived round the corner from this place for years and never noticed it tucked away behind our fave cafe. Only one table dining in tonight but takeaways seemed to be flying out the door and I can see why.<br/>We just went standard with one chicken curry and entree platter +breads, heaps for two people. Tasty and generous portions can't wait to try more from the menu next time. <br/>
Emma Clark
This is hands down my favourite place to eat in Hamilton (both the Rototuna and St Andrew's branches). My partner and I have been coming here about once a week for the last two years and have never ever had a bad meal either dine in or takeaway. I feel like every time we dine in we say it has been the best meal we've ever had! The takeaway combo is a great value option. All curries are great - especially the lamb korma. You've got to try the samosas and the keema naan - soo good and so cheap. Always such good service, thanks Friends!
Ange Robinson
The best Indian food in town!<br/>I go to the takeaway in Glenview which also has tables for dine in. Lovely staff, generous portion sizes and the flavours are full, spicy and delicious. A wide variety of options for all tastes. The staff are so friendly and very generous, often giving a few tasty extras. This restaurant has been a popular addition to the mall at Glenview.
Ralph Faamalepe
Just had 11 friends have dinner at Friends Cuisine India. The service was good bit more importantly the food was superb. The atmosphere was courteous, friendly and the food tasty and spicy in all the right places. This truly is the best Indian Cuisine in town. If you eat in don't be afraid to try something different, if you are worried about the 'hot' dishes talk to the staff who are quite happy to talk through your choices. I was disappointed more of the guys were not prepared to see if they could handle the Indian hot dishes. But maybe next time. Highly recommended!
Priya Bhardwaj
Best Indian food in town specially if you like north Indian food. I have been to almost all indian restaurants in Hamilton but by far this is the best. Authentic Indian food specially without artificial color. The quality and the quantity they provide is amazing, not too expensive too. :))
Amy Davies
A new favourite of ours!! <br/><br/>Amazing flavours and huge range of dishes to try. <br/><br/>It is always hot and fresh with very friendly service. Highly recommend
Paula Ruston
My favourite indian restaurant! Beautiful flavours and aroma's, excellent quality service, staff and prices! <br/><br/>Ordered on a Tuesday night, went to pick up and restaurant was full, what does that tell you!<br/>Highly recommended
Julia
Whilst the Friends Cuisine of India didn't look much from the road, it was very busy on a Friday night when we chose to dine there.<br/><br/>Initially a bit of a wait as there was quite a full house, but the waiters were very apologetic and more than made up for it with the excellent service.<br/><br/>And as for the food, I can't speak highly enough. It was delicious! Maybe the best Indian food we have tasted. <br/><br/>We will definitely go there again and recommend to others.
Jo Alex
Best Indian food ever tasted. Very delicious butter chicken and naan bread and flavours were aromatic. Atmosphere was very relaxing and staff was very friendly.<br/><br/>I have been here 4 times recently to get take away dinners. I enjoyed their food and found it very reasonably priced. <br/><br/>I will be going back to the Friends Cuisine again.
Justin Thomas
Very friendly service, opened this year, totally new inside... they provide a nice dine in experience or very well priced takeaway combos. The food is awesome, very generous servings, the taste of their lamb madras is second to none other. A weekly treat for us.
Kenta
Amazing flavours, service and value at what seems to be an authentic Indian restaurant. Highly recommended to all!
