Review Ammu South Indian Restaurant - Upper Hutt

The best butter chicken I've ever had in my life. The sauce was perfectly creamy, and I like my BC ultra-spicy. Their spices are flavourful, and not overpowering even with the hundy kick.

Cool to have an Indian Restaurant with a point of difference in Upper Hutt. Only a few years ago we had one Indian restaurant. Now the Upper Hutt City area has 10 and huge competition with many excellent food options and top service! Add to this fair prices. Ammu is focused on South Indian with Sea Food delicacies and good alcohol options.

Every 2 months we dine in or take away from Ammus. Two weeks back I been there and tried their special biriyani. It was one the best biriyani I had from New Zealand. It was full of flavors of kerala. I loved it. Thank you guys. My another favorites are egg masala curry with kerala porotta and goat fry. We always have really good experience. Mind and tummy full. 😊. Exceptional service as well.👏. Ka pai.

The best food in wellington i ever had. Made my evening with beautiful and tasty food. We order bindi do pyaza and malai kofta. So yumm. Fully satisfied with service. Definitely visit soon. Thanks team.

Superb food and ambience , had masala dosa, kothu Porota , chicken lollipops, ammus special biriyani. All the items were awesome. Enjoyed each dish ,will surely visit again.

Amazing food! We have tried almost all Indian restaurants in Wellington and this has got to be one of the best. If you would like a tasty Indian meal look no further!

The menu is massive but if you dig around you’ll find traditional South Indian dishes and street food. We enjoyed the Kothu Parotta (stir fried chopped roti), Gobi 65, and Idly & Sambar. Highly recommend for a lovely night out with great South Indian food. For two people I’d suggest three street food dishes to share.

Friendly service and kept us updated on our wait time. Had the medium spice butter chicken with garlic naan. Just the right level of spice for me, and absolutely delicious.

This is the place to be if you are expecting awesome south Indian food. Kothu roti is a must try here. Lots of free parking behind the restaurant

Definitely one of the best local curry’s all the sides where perfect, little bit light on the amount of curry but I’d rather better flavours over quantity. Highly recommend

Good service, the person who is serving food with good smile and polite. Dosa was more crispy rest everything was good.

Enjoyed the goat fry(alternative for beef ularthiyathu). The curries were good. A good eats place for anyone traveling through upper hutt

Was craving for some South Indian food..Very happy with the dosas and chutney and sambar..smell of ghee from ghee roast was divine..mmm..Indian tea was also spot on..wait staff very friendly..Readily replaced my order when there was a misunderstanding about an item.. Good value for money..Must try if you’re interested in South Indian food

Ammu is an amazing restaurant serving a huge number of south Indian delicacies in absolutely authentic Tamil, Malayalam and other south Indian tastes.. It also serves a plethora of dishes from other parts of India and a few dishes which are Asian in origin. It has a vast selection of dishes to choose from and literally we were hopelessly trying to conclude which one dish is better than another.. My friends and I have had several different dishes, including starters, mains, sides and desserts, on many separate occassions and have never encountered even one instance where we could say that any one dish was only just average or not too great, such is the superb amazing quality, authenticity and flavour of all the things we have had here.. Absolutely fantabulous.. The taste of everything is so originally authentic that one gets a feeling that the food is exactly what one would expect in a homely household kitchen or in a highly rated and accomplished restaurant anywhere in the heartland of India; such is the taste and ethnic feel of each dish.. It is very prominently located in Upper Hutt. There are lots of parking spaces available. The restaurant premises are spic and span. The staff are efficient, friendly and very helpful. Washrooms are very neat and clean and are well appointed. The overall ambience of the place is simple, energetic and vibrant. Large dining areas ensures adequate seating and quick seats.. Ammu is a place worth visiting several times.. We look forward eagerly for our next opportunity to go there to celebrate some special occassion.

The food was really amazing. Best Indian food I've had in NZ. A must visit if you're craving Indian food.

This is one of our favourite restaurants. The service is excellent - friendly & welcoming, orders are always correct. The food is always amazing, served up freshly cooked and delicious. Tables are a good size to hold the many dishes you'll order. Seating is comfortable too. This restaurant has a relaxing atmosphere. There is a lovely, enclosed play area for young kids. Off street parking is available at the back entrance of the restaurant.

Best butter chicken and Nan bread ibe had for a while, really rich in flavour and decent amount of chicken.
